During the initial consultation, the dermatologist will discuss with you what you expect from this treatment, what it is intended to achieve, recommending the most appropriate treatment for you, depending on the particularities of each patient.
During the procedure:
The filler will be injected into the skin using a fine needle. The treatment generally takes between 15 and 30 minutes, depending on the area treated and the amount of hyaluronic acid injected. The injected hyaluronic acid restores volume, fills in lines and wrinkles, contours the treated area and maintains facial expression.
After:
Dermal fibrils are biodegradable substances, which means they will normally disappear from the tissues. To ensure results are maintained, a second treatment session is recommended 6-12 months after the initial session. Your dermatologist will also make an appointment for a follow-up shortly after the procedure.
Immediately after treatment, local reactions such as redness, itching, slight bruising, mild pain in the area may occur. These are usually of low to moderate intensity and disappear shortly after the injection.
