Dermal fillers are injectable treatments made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain skin hydration, volume, and elasticity. As we age, hyaluronic acid levels decrease, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss. Hyaluronic acid fillers work by restoring volume beneath the skin, smoothing wrinkles, and enhancing facial contours.

Dermal filler treatments are quick, non-surgical procedures with minimal downtime. After a personalised consultation, hyaluronic acid fillers are carefully injected into targeted areas such as the lips, cheeks, or jawline to restore volume and enhance facial features. The treatment usually takes 30–60 minutes, with results visible immediately and improving as the filler settles.

Having dermal fillers is usually safe if it’s done by an experienced and suitably qualified practitioner. At Barbanente Clinic, each client seeking dermal fillers undergoes an in-depth consultation to assess motivation and expectations. Our clinic provides a safe medical environment, and all treatments are performed by a highly qualified practitioner. It is our policy to exceed all industry standards and guidelines, as well as all recommended guidelines and requirements.

The treated area may present redness, swelling, and soreness may be present in the affected area. Any swelling or bruising should subside in a few days. You should avoid excessive sun exposure, solariums and saunas for a week after your treatment.

There may be some swelling or bruising after the procedure, but the swelling usually fades within 48 hours and the bruising fades within two weeks.
