Restoring the plump promise of youth, facial fillers or hyaluronic acid, add fullness and smooth the skin around the eyes, cheek and mouth, and in the lips.
The procedure
Temporary fillers are create from synthetic substances that mimic the natural components of your skin. They are usually combined with a local anaesthetic and delivered via injection. The procedure takes between 10 and 30 minutes, and the results last between 4 to 12 months,
Permanent fillers are taken from your own body, usually in the form of fat via liposuction, and injected into the body where needed. The injected fat has regenerative properties, meaning that new tissue is actually actively being created by your body, rather than simply healed. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia and takes between 30 to 45 minutes.
