What are Fillers?
Dermal fillers, commonly referred to as just "anti-ageing fillers," are cosmetic injectable treatments used to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial features. They are often used to counteract the signs of aging, which can include volume loss, deepening lines, and wrinkles.
Fillers can be composed of various substances, the most common being Hyaluronic Acid (HA). HA is a natural substance found in the human body, known for its capacity to attract and retain moisture. It's used in fillers to add volume to areas like the cheeks, soften smile lines, plump thin lips, and improve the appearance of scars.
Other types of fillers use substances like Poly-L-lactic Acid (brand name Sculptra) and Calcium Hydroxylapatite (brand name Radiesse), which stimulate your body to produce more collagen. They can be used to treat deeper facial lines and to add volume to areas like the cheeks.
The effects of fillers can last from six months up to two years or longer, depending on the type of filler used and the area treated. While generally considered safe, like any procedure, they come with potential side effects. Therefore, it's important always to consult with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon to discuss the best options for your needs and expectations.
WHY Fillers?
​Dermal fillers can be an effective solution for various cosmetic concerns related to facial aging, structure, and skin quality.
Here's why:
1. Deep Lines or Wrinkles: Over time, our skin loses elasticity and volume, leading to deep lines and wrinkles. Fillers can be injected into these areas to plump and smooth them out, providing a more youthful appearance.
2. Enhancing Facial Contours: Fillers can be used to modify the shape and contours of certain facial features. For instance, they can be used to add volume to the lips or reshape the jawline for a more balanced and symmetrical appearance.
3. Customizable Results: The results from fillers are subtle and natural-looking. The physician can adjust the amount of product used to suit your aesthetic needs and preferences, ensuring you don't end up with an overdone look.
4. Scars and Skin Depressions: Fillers are effective in treating scars and depressions in the skin caused by acne, injury, or congenital imperfections. They add volume underneath the skin's surface to lift and smooth these areas.
5. Defined Facial Structure: By adding volume to areas like the cheekbones, fillers can help to create more defined facial contours and enhance your overall facial structure.
6. Plump Lips: As we age, our lips can lose their volume. Fillers can restore this lost volume, resulting in fuller, plumper lips.
7. Restore Facial Volume (Liquid Face Lift): Fillers can be used in a procedure known as a "liquid facelift". This is a non-surgical procedure where fillers are used to restore lost volume, reduce sagging, and rejuvenate the face.
As with any cosmetic procedure, it's vital to consult our qualified professional to discuss your specific concerns and desired outcomes, ensuring the safest and most effective treatment plan.

Anti-Ageing PROCESS at Studio Aesthtique:
​At Studio Aesthetique, the process for administering dermal fillers is designed to ensure client comfort and satisfaction.
Here's what you can expect:
1. Sanitization and Numbing: The first step in the process is the preparation of the area to be treated. The skin is thoroughly cleaned and sanitized to reduce the risk of infection. To minimize discomfort during the procedure, a topical numbing cream is applied and left to take effect for a short period.
2. Injection of Fillers: Once the skin is numb, the practitioner will carefully inject the advanced Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers into the targeted areas. These fillers contain an in-built anesthetic agent to further reduce any discomfort during the procedure.
3. Post-Injection Care: After the injections, it's normal to experience slight bruising at the injection site. This is temporary and should subside within a day. The practitioner will provide aftercare instructions to help manage any side effects and optimize the healing process.
4. Immediate Results: One of the major advantages of fillers is that results are visible almost immediately after the treatment. You will notice a change in volume and contour in the treated areas right away.
The entire process is performed under the careful supervision of a trained medical professional, ensuring not only the effectiveness of the treatment but also the safety and comfort of the client.
Please remember to have a detailed discussion prior to the treatment to understand the process, potential risks, and expected outcomes.

BENEFITS
​Quick Downtime with Immediate Results: Fillers offer a convenient and swift recovery process with minimal downtime. Patients can typically resume their regular activities shortly after the treatment, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. Additionally, the results are often noticeable immediately, providing a rapid enhancement to the treated areas.
Can be Used Along with Botox, Complementing Each Other: Fillers and Botox are synergistic in their effects, often used in combination to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Botox addresses muscle-related wrinkles by relaxing facial muscles, while fillers contribute to increased volume and hydration, targeting lines and folds. The combined approach allows for a more holistic and harmonious enhancement, addressing multiple aspects of facial aging.
Option of Reversal for Flexibility: An intriguing feature of fillers is the possibility of reversal through an antidote injected into the skin. This unique characteristic provides individuals with flexibility and peace of mind, as the effects of the filler can be dissolved within 24 hours if the desired outcome is not achieved or if adjustments are needed. This reversibility sets fillers apart, offering a level of control and customization in aesthetic treatments.
Long-Lasting Effects Without Permanent Commitment: Fillers provide a balance between longevity and flexibility. While the effects are long-lasting, ranging from 6 to 24 months, they are not permanent. This characteristic allows individuals to explore the benefits of facial enhancement without making a permanent commitment. The temporary nature of fillers ensures that individuals have the freedom to adapt their aesthetic preferences over time.
Fillers offer the advantage of quick recovery, immediate results, and compatibility with Botox, providing individuals with a versatile and effective solution for facial rejuvenation. The option to reverse the treatment and the varying duration of effects contribute to the flexibility and customization that fillers offer to meet individual aesthetic goals.
​
In conclusion, fillers offer a unique blend of immediate, customizable results, reversible effects, and a temporary yet substantial impact on facial appearance. These benefits make fillers a popular choice for individuals seeking non-permanent yet transformative solutions in facial aesthetics.
