Dermal Fillers in Sevenoaks
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments used to add or restore volume in selected areas of the face. Many modern dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body.
Depending on the product and treatment area, dermal fillers may be used to enhance facial contours, improve the appearance of certain lines and folds, or add volume to selected areas such as the lips and cheeks.
At Sevenoaks Dental & Implant Centre, dermal filler treatment is considered on an individual basis. Your practitioner will discuss your concerns, assess the proposed treatment area and explain the options that may be suitable for you.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable products designed to add volume beneath the skin or improve the appearance of selected facial areas.
Many commonly used dermal fillers are based on hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally within the body and has the ability to retain water.
Different filler products have different properties and are designed for different applications. The product selected will depend on the treatment area, your individual features and the treatment plan recommended by your practitioner.
