Dermal Fillers

For instant contouring and youthfulness

As we age, our faces lose volume and structural definition, causing our skin to become lax and sag, creating an aged appearance. This occurs naturally due to the loss of structural proteins such as elastin and collagen.

Dermal fillers are a highly effective treatment for pausing the signs of ageing and creating a refreshed, bright, and youthful look for the face. They deliver outstanding, natural-looking results by contouring facial features, restoring lift and facial symmetry, and replacing lost volume without the need for surgery.

Treatment Overview

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a moisture-magnetising substance that occurs naturally in the body and decreases with age.

Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are a naturally derived injectable gel that safely and instantly creates subtle volume while simultaneously hydrating the tissue. Dermal filler gel comes in varying compositions of cross-inked particles, resulting in varying gel densities, making it suitable for use in specific areas of the face, hands, and body to mimic natural tissues such as bone, cartilage and subcutaneous fat, which have been affected by the ageing process. And/or augment facial features for a particular desired result.

Among the dermal filler brands used at Clinique Allure are Belotero®, Teosyal®, and Juvéderm®. These high-quality brands are ideal for treating and producing desirable effects for the cheeks, lips, tear troughs (under eyes), temples, brows, forehead, chin, jaw, ears and nose. They provide subtle accentuation and gentle sculpting, yielding beautiful, long-lasting results.

Before Your Treatment

A comprehensive consultation is conducted at the beginning of every patient’s journey. This consultation involves filling out essential paperwork, including a medical health history questionnaire, which is crucial in determining the suitability of treatment. Additionally, the consultation includes a thorough discussion to establish the patient’s treatment motivations, expectations, and desired outcomes; this helps determine the best treatment solution and an individual program that caters to each patient’s specific needs.

Booking your initial treatment appointment on the same day as the consultation may be possible in some instances. However, this will depend on the specific treatment needed. It is naturally important and advised to take some time to carefully consider our recommendations and then return at a later date for the treatment appointment.

Your Treatment

Upon arriving for your scheduled treatment appointment, your medical history will be carefully reviewed to ensure accuracy. Your practitioner will then explain the intended treatment procedure in detail to ensure it is fully understood and expected. Only after obtaining your consent to proceed will the treatment be administered. You are always welcome and encouraged to ask any questions or raise any concerns at any point during the process.

Your treatment will be conducted in one of our opulent, state-of-the-art treatment rooms. Our practitioner will escort you through each phase of the treatment, guaranteeing your comfort and safety, which are always of utmost importance. We make extensive efforts to prioritise your safety and well-being above everything else, so you can rest assured that you are in good hands.

At each treatment, as part of your medical records, before-and-after photos are taken to illustrate the progress and outcome of your treatment.

After Your Treatment

Once your treatment is complete, we will review the initial results and guide you through the aftercare plan. Before you leave the clinic, we will provide you with comprehensive aftercare instructions, both verbally and in writing. Additionally, we will provide you with any necessary aftercare products or accessories to achieve optimal results.

We provide touch-up cosmetics, cleansers, and moisturisers to help you refresh after treatment and resume your schedule.

How many Dermal Filler treatment sessions are required?

Generally, one treatment session is required. However, this depends on the area treated and the final result desired.

Can this treatment be reversed?

Are there any pre-treatment requirements?

As with all treatments, a standard, comprehensive pre-treatment consultation is mandatory to determine treatment suitability and to discuss all relatable matters regarding the treatment in question.

How long until treatment results are visible?

The results from dermal filler are virtually instant, and there is very little downtime – Many clients walk straight out following treatment looking and feeling refreshed.

How long will the results last?

Most hyaluronic acid dermal fillers last 6-18 months and wear off slowly. If desired, additional treatment on an ongoing basis during this time period can be received to maintain optimum effects. Typically, the filler will wear off more quickly in some areas than others.

While complications are rare, they can/do happen. These can range from a bruise or swelling that lasts a little longer than anticipated to asymmetry to more serious issues like allergy, infection, and vascular occlusion. Thankfully, these more serious complications are extremely rare. Generally, patients will experience temporary mild busing, swelling, or tenderness around the treated area.

All dermal fillers used at Clinique Allure are fully reversible/dissolvable, meaning they can be dissolved easily in the highly unusual event of a problem ever occurring.
