Dermal fillers are a gel-like soft tissue filler administered into the skin. It can help with many things, including facial augmentation, diminishing facial lines and also restoring the volume and fullness in the face.
Fillers are differentiated by their density.
Fillers with a higher density are more effective for creating volume. Therefore we use high density fillers for volumising deeper facial contours, such as the cheeks, nose and chin.
Fillers with lower density are more effective for superficial areas, such as treatments for depressed acne scars or fine wrinkles
The area to be treated will be numbed with a topical anaesthetic cream for about 30 minutes so that pain is minimal.

Those with a recessed chin (chin lacking in volume) can also benefit from a chin filler to improve chin volume and achieve a fuller, more contoured look.
Deep laugh lines make us look like we have aged overnight. Filling up these lines tend to take years off our age and make us look much younger.
Loss of volume due in the temples and forehead due to ageing results in a shrivelled look. A fuller, contoured face with volume replenished at the temples or forehead results in a younger appearance.
