Dermal fillers are used in the midface to provide volume, creating structure, shape and contour to the face. Cheek filler can address multiple concerns in the face, as the midface (below eyes to the lips) is often one of the first areas to see signs of aging. As we age, the fat pads under the skin begin to flatten and create volume loss, this results in loss of the natural contour of the cheek, the development of jowling and nasolabial folds (lines from nose to mouth). Dermal filler used in the cheeks can also be used to create high cheekbones for those who desire a more defined and contoured look. 

Dermal fillers are a short non-surgical procedure which may take up to 60 minutes, administered through injection by a trained medical professional. There may be some minor discomfort during the administration of dermal fillers, discomfort varies from one individual to another, depending on the product being used and the area being treated. We have a number of options for numbing or other agents to help with any discomfort.

Pain or discomfort can vary from person to person, with most feeling minor discomfort during the treatment.

Here at FAB, we offer topical anaesthetic cream to minimise any discomfort for our patients.

Post-Treatment 

The post-procedure experience is different for everyone, swelling and bruising is common for most when getting dermal fillers. Some individuals swell and bruise more than others. Lumps and bumps can also be common, these lumps will often soften out over time, so don’t be alarmed if you experience this. 

Allow up to 14 days post-treatment for your dermal filler treatment to settle.

We recommend a complimentary review appointment 2 weeks post-treatment. 

Downtime:

+ Exercise or excessive sweating (saunas, steam rooms etc.) for 24-48 hours.

+ Wearing make-up for 24hours.

+ Direct UV exposure.

+ Consuming alcohol in the first 24 hours (to avoid thinning the blood).

+ Do not use AHAs, BHAs, Retinol, or Vitamin C for 24 hours.
