Dermal Filler

• A consultation determines the appropriate filler and the areas to treat.
• The procedure takes 15–60 minutes depending on how many areas are treated.
• Topical anaesthetic may be applied to minimise discomfort.

Yes — fillers made with hyaluronic acid are generally reversible. If you are unhappy with the result or a complication occurs, a healthcare professional can inject hyaluronidase to dissolve the filler quickly. This applies primarily to hyaluronic acid fillers, not to every type.
