Dr. Wangui Waithaka here to introduce dermal fillers, a versatile non-surgical treatment designed to enhance your natural beauty by restoring lost volume, smoothing out wrinkles, and adding contour to your face. Fillers are injectable gels made of hyaluronic acid or other biocompatible materials that plump up the skin and fill in lines and wrinkles.
The procedure is straightforward and typically takes about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the treatment area. Using a fine needle, I carefully inject the filler into the targeted areas, such as the cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds, and under-eye hollows. The results are immediate, and you can see a noticeable improvement right after the treatment.
Fillers are a popular choice for those looking to enhance their facial features without undergoing surgery. They provide a subtle, natural-looking enhancement, helping you achieve a refreshed and youthful appearance.
The duration of results varies depending on the type of filler used, but most fillers last between six months to two years.
Some common side effects include swelling, bruising, and redness at the injection site, which typically subside within a few days.
Yes, hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase if you are unhappy with the results.
Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure, though it's advised to avoid strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours.
