Sculptra and Fillers for ageing skin at Laser and Skin Clinics

As our body ages, the most visible signs on the face include a loss of volume on the cheeks and chin, leading to sagging, deep folds and marionette lines around the mouth. These signs can give a ‘sad look’ and result in pronounced dark circles under the eyes.  

The injectable fillers offered at Laser and Skin Clinics are a safe and popular cosmetic treatment for patients seeking dermal fillers in Brighton and wider Sussex. They are designed to effectively minimise the signs of ageing by reducing fine lines and wrinkles on the face. Furthermore, providing a more youthful and refreshed look by plumping the skin.

What are Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers?

Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in the skin, giving it plumpness and fullness. However, as we age, HA levels reduce. Using HA fillers restores this lost volume, with results that are highly effective, seen immediately and lasting several months. HA fillers are widely considered safe, with rare adverse reactions, as they are not derived from human or animal tissues, unlike older collagen-based fillers.

Are Dermal fillers safe?

Yes. Generally speaking, dermal fillers are safe when performed by qualified professionals. They have been popular for a number of years and are widely accepted by medical professionals as a great way to restore volume to the face. As with any injectable treatment, there are of course some potential side-effects, which will always be explained to you in detail at the time of treatment.

However, it’s important to choose your practitioner carefully. Some high street providers or beauty parlours may offer treatments at low cost but lack regulation and qualified personnel. Please do careful research before choosing your cosmetic practitioner. Always ensure that the person treating you is either a Dermatologist, Cosmetic Surgeon or a GP with experience in advanced dermatology and cosmetic procedures. 

All dermal fillers in Brighton, Hove and Worthing Laser and Skin Clinics are performed by highly experienced doctors. Every patient is offered a complimentary review appointment two weeks after the procedure to ensure you are fully satisfied with your new look.

Some famous celebrities look worse after having dermal fillers. Is it possible to achieve a natural look with dermal fillers?

Absolutely yes. They key to acquiring a natural look with dermal fillers is in choosing your practitioner carefully. A natural look is absolutely achievable with the right technique and moderation. Top up treatments are better than too much product used in one setting. Overdone fillers, often seen in some celebrities, are the result of too much product or poor technique. Our highly experienced doctors provide honest, realistic advice on the quantity of fillers needed to achieve your desired look.

Which areas can be treated using dermal fillers?

Face:

Effective anti-ageing treatment in Brighton, Hove and Worthing

Dermal fillers are mainly used on the face to improve hollow cheeks, deep Nasolabial folds, hollow temples and tear troughs (dark circles under eyes). Additionally, lips, marionette lines on the chin that give a ‘sad look’  and sagging jaw line can also be treated. 

Lips:

Lip fillers in Brighton and Hove are very popular, either for fuller lips or improved lip contour. Whether you prefer a subtle enhancement, or a more pronounced look, our experts will guide you during your consultation.

Back of hands:

HA fillers are excellent at restoring volume and plumpness on the backs of hands.

Female genitals (Labial puff):

This is an increasingly popular, non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation technique using HA fillers. Over time many women develop deflation of the labia majora (big lips of the vulva). Women often notice the labia becoming saggy and wrinkly after childbirth and menopause. Dermal fillers in the labia majora and/or over the pubic bone give the vulva a more youthful appearance by plumping and restoring volume to the labia. Labial puff is carried out by expert female Dermatology Consultant, Dr. Susana Morris.

During your consultation your doctor will discuss different treatment options and recommend one or more dermal fillers to achieve the results you are looking for.

How long do Dermal fillers last?

HA fillers last from 6-12 months on average, depending on the type of filler and the site of the injection. Areas that have more movement tend to last less than areas with less movement.

Why don’t you offer any permanent dermal fillers at your clinics?

We don’t use permanent fillers because they usually have a significant increased risk of side-effects. This is because they are made up of ingredients which cannot be broken down by the body’s natural immune system. The results of permanent fillers are often irreversible. Any mistakes, undesired results or reactions can only be corrected by invasive, often disfiguring surgery.

Most cosmetic practitioners worldwide use safe HA (hyaluronic acid) fillers that are gradually broken down by the body.
