Dermal Fillers
Frequently Asked Questions
Typically from the time of treatment, a filler will last between 12-18 months.
This depends on the type of filler used and the position. For example, in the lips, you would expect the treatment to last for 6-12 months whilst in the cheeks 12-18 months.
There is a fear that the filler may travel to another part of the body which is unfounded. The filler does have to move once injected so it can be massaged into the required position and shape as required by each patient.
Since the majority of dermal fillers are made up of Hyaluronic Acid a substance found naturally within the body there is no medical evidence to suggest the use of such fillers can lead to cancer.
You should be prepared for potential minor bruising after treatment although this is not always the case and it should only last for a short period of time.
