What is Dermal Filler?

Dermal fillers are injectable gel-like substances used to restore lost volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Commonly made of hyaluronic acid—a naturally occurring substance in the skin—fillers help create a youthful, plump appearance without surgery.

How It Works?

Dermal fillers are injected beneath the skin in targeted areas such as the cheeks, lips, jawline, or under-eyes. The filler adds volume instantly and can stimulate collagen production over time. The results are visible immediately and improve over a few days.

💡 Targets: Under eye hollowness, lip enhancement, cheek augmentation, jaw line contouring, nose reshaping/ sharpening
