COSMETIC FILLERS
The art of cosmetic medicine with NP Christina and Dr. Lyn Pascoe. Add the appearance of volume, create the look of angles and help preserve a natural looking, more refreshed you. Juvéderm®, Juvederm Volite®, Restylane®, Teosyal® and Redensity II® are all examples of the injectable gels or dermal fillers we use. Dermal fillers are a versatile treatment which can be used to correct the look of fine lines, under eye hollows, deep creases and restore the appearance of volume in the face, hands, and lips. The treatment may last just 40-60 minutes and you will be on your way.
*Individual results may vary.
WHY IT WORKS
As we age, we start to lose volume in certain areas of the face which can make us look tired and sunken. This may be caused by the body’s decreased ability to produce collagen and elastin. Unlike wrinkles which might require muscle relaxants ( Botox ) to soften them, facial volume and folds may require a dermal filler to help potentially improve the appearance of the area. Dermal fillers are based on a substance that occurs naturally in your body – a sugar molecule that exists naturally in almost all living organisms. Our selection of hyaluronic acid fillers may offer instant, natural-looking results to smooth the appearance of moderate to severe wrinkles. Our standard filler product may last an average of 6 months, while our premium product may last between 12-18 months.

FAQ’S ABOUT COSMETIC FILLERS
What’s involved in the treatment?
You will be given a full consultation and if you are suitable for treatment we can proceed. You will be asked to sit/lie on a treatment bed and made comfortable. Your skin will be prepared with cleansing and a numbing cream will be applied, when the area is ready the Dermal Filler will be administered. You will be given after-care advice and details of what to expect following treatment. You can return to your normal day activities soon after.
What areas can be treated?
Dermal fillers can be used to smooth away the look of facial lines and wrinkles, create the appearance of fuller lips and to shape the appearance of facial contours, such as cheeks and chin. Most clients apply filler in the nos,e to mouth lines, between the eyebrows, lips and cheeks.
Can anybody get this treatment?
Anyone with a previous allergic reaction to a Dermal Filler or someone with an allergy to Lidocain (often added to fillers for the comfort of client) cannot get cosmetic fillers.
What is the downtime involved with this procedure?
Following your treatment you can expect some local swelling and maybe bruising. It is often asked that you avoid any vigorous exercise or sun exposure for 24-48 hours. Some medications may be better avoided to ensure optimum healing too. All this information will be given to you in more detail during your treatment.
How long will the effects last?
Dermal Fillers are thought to be long-lasting – they may last between six to eight months but this can vary for different individuals.
When will I see results?
You might see results instantly; however there may be slight swelling due to the slight tissue trauma. This may dissipate within 24 hours.
How long does the procedure take?
After your consultation the treatment can take up to 40 minutes, this includes time for the numbing cream to activate.
What are the potential side effects?
Short term side effects can include redness, swelling, pain, itching, bruising or tenderness at the injection site. Lips can be particularly sensitive and swelling may last for a few days. Because of this, it is extremely important that these cosmetic filler injections are given by a certified and trained physician.
