The full guide
Everything you need to know about dermal fillers
At Singh Advanced Dentistry in Cape Town, we offer expertly applied dermal fillers designed to rejuvenate the areas around your mouth. Our treatments aim to restore volume, soften lines, and enhance your natural appearance.
What are Dermal Fillers?
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the human body that helps maintain skin hydration and volume. Over time, the body’s production of hyaluronic acid decreases, leading to signs of ageing such as fine lines and loss of fullness. Hyaluronic acid for dermal fillers can be produced using bacterial fermentation. Once injected, these fillers can help restore volume and soften wrinkles for a refreshed appearance.
Benefits of Dermal Fillers
As you age, you begin to lose levels of collagen and elasticity in your skin and fine lines develop. Your skin struggles to repair itself after years of sun damage, facial expressions and ageing.
This is where fillers can assist you if you feel frustrated with your wrinkles or fine lines. Fillers are used to add volume to your skin in a variety of areas. Fillers may soften wrinkles and can be used to contour your face along your cheeks and jaw.
Procedure of Dermal Fillers
This procedure takes between 10 – 30 minutes depending on what you need. Anaesthetic may not be needed in every case. Initial healing may take 2–3 days, although recovery varies and risks should be discussed during your consultation.
Effects may last about 8–10 months after your initial appointment; duration varies between individuals.
When should I start getting Dermal Fillers?
Fillers are a personal choice and are not necessary, but may be an option if you wish to soften wrinkles. If wrinkles are starting to form, you can discuss whether fillers are appropriate for you. Treatment may soften existing fine lines, but does not guarantee prevention of deeper wrinkles. Any potential effect on collagen production depends on the filler used; maintaining a youthful appearance over time cannot be guaranteed. Book online to arrange a consultation.
