Methods and treatment areas
Hyaluronic acid fillers differ from biostimulatory products such as calcium hydroxylapatite and poly-L-lactic acid. Selection depends on the area, tissue, objective and product instructions. Lips, cheeks, chin, jawline and facial lines require separate planning.
Suitability and precautions
Adults with volume loss or contour concerns may be assessed. Infection, ingredient allergy, pregnancy/breastfeeding and certain immune conditions may preclude or postpone treatment. Previous filler type and location must be disclosed.
Benefits and expectations
The aim is to select an option suited to your concern. Alternatives, including observation when appropriate, are discussed. Benefit depends on tissue, condition and method; results and recovery vary.
Risks and aftercare
Bruising, swelling, asymmetry, nodules and infection can occur. Rare vascular occlusion can cause tissue loss, blindness or stroke. Sudden severe pain, blanching or visual changes are emergencies. Not all fillers are dissolvable; reversibility of hyaluronic acid is not an absolute safeguard.
Frequently asked questions
How many sessions or procedures?
It depends on diagnosis and method. One procedure may be sufficient, or follow-up and further treatment may be required.
What should I disclose beforehand?
Share medicines, allergies, previous procedures and health conditions. Do not stop prescribed medication yourself.
How long does recovery take?
It depends on the procedure and your health; aftercare and review are planned at consultation.
