Dermal fillers are gels, most commonly based on hyaluronic acid, that are injected into specific areas of the face or body to restore lost volume, improve contours and fill in wrinkles.

Hyaluronic acid is a substance that naturally occurs in the skin and attracts water. Over time, its levels diminish - the skin appears drier, thinner and less elastic. With dermal fillers, we can restore some of that volume and freshness in a controlled, predictable and reversible way.

Who is the procedure suitable for?

Who do we recommend for dermal fillers to?

  • Loss of volume in the cheekbone area
  • Presence of wrinkles on the face and neck 
  • Thin, dry, asymmetrical or loose lips
  • You have fine lines around the lips
  • You need a better defined chin and lower jaw
  • You want a softer, smoother correction without an abrupt change to your face.
  • Don't like your nose

The appropriate filter type, quantity and technique are determined during the aesthetic consultation, taking into account your age, facial structure and desires.

Effect and duration

  • The initial effect is seen immediately after the procedure, but the final result is evaluated after the swelling subsides - usually after a few days.

  • Depending on the area, product and individual metabolism, the effect may last between 9 -18 months.

  • For some patients, we're also planning supporting procedures over a certain time interval to keep the result more stable over time.

Our goal is to make your face look natural, fresh and harmonious, without „excessive“ volume and without changing your personality.

How is the procedure performed?

  1. Consultation and plan
    We discuss what's bothering you, what you want to change and what the realistic options are. The doctor examines the face at rest and during facial expressions, takes pictures and suggests a specific plan - which areas to treat, with what type of filter and how much.

  2. Preparation and anaesthesia
    The area is cleaned and disinfected. For sensitive patients or areas (e.g. lips), a local anaesthetic in the form of a cream or injection anesthesia.

  3. Injection of the filter
    The filter is inserted with a fine needle into certain layers of the skin or subcutaneous tissue. You may feel a slight pressure or burning during the procedure, but it is temporary.

  4. Modelling and verification
    The doctor gently shapes the filter with massage to obtain a smooth and natural contour. He checks the symmetry and balance between the two halves of the face.

Instructions after the procedure
You get instructions on what to avoid in the first hours and days and when to come for a check-up.

Recovery period and care

What should I expect after the procedure?

Normal reactions in the first days:

  • Mild swelling and redness in the treated area;
  • Touch sensitivity;
  • Possible small bruises (hematomas) at the puncture sites.

Recommendations:

  • In the first 24 hours - avoid massage and pressure on the area.
  • For the first two weeks, avoid the solarium, sauna and very high temperatures.
  • If you experience more discomfort or something is bothering you, contact us for an examination and assessment.

In most cases, patients return to their daily activities the same day, with the swelling gradually decreasing.

When do we postpone the procedure?

  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding
  • Active infection, fever, inflammation.
  • Severe allergic reactions in the past to similar products (at doctor's discretion)
  • Certain autoimmune diseases or specific systemic conditions - discussed individually
  • Recent aggressive procedures in the same area (lasers, peels, etc.)

During the consultation we will necessarily discuss your general health, medications if you are taking them and previous treatments to take the right solution for you.

Frequently Asked Question

Is the procedure painful?
There may be mild discomfort during the injection, but a local anaesthetic is usually used (especially for lips) and many fillers also contain lidocaine for added comfort. Most patients describe the sensation as tolerable.
Will I look unnatural after the fillers?
We aim for the opposite - a natural result that enhances your features, not alters them. We work with moderate amounts and precise techniques for maximum results.
What if I don't like the result?
Hyaluronic fillers are biodegradable and we can correct the effect . The important thing is to discuss your expectations before the procedure to minimize the need for further correction.
Can I combine fillers with other treatments?
We can combine fillers with botulinum toxin, biostimulants or other treatments - but in a precisely planned sequence. The doctor will draw up an individual plan for you to achieve maximum effect.
How often can I get fillers?
It depends on the area, the product and the rate at which your body breaks down the filter and your desires. We are usually talking about maintenance treatments every 6-18 months. During a check-up, we assess when it's time for a refresh.
