Dermal Fillers

Welcome

At Gigi medical aesthetics we predominantly use dermal fillers such as Restylane, but may use other brands where appropriate, to treat wrinkles and facial lines and contours. Wrinkle injections will reduce the wrinkles and creases that occur when you frown, raise your eyebrows and smile. The dermal fillers are used to fill out and smooth away fine and deep creases created by wrinkles and lines that are noticeable even when facial expressions are not being made. They are known as resting lines.

Dermal fillers will create beautifully shaped lips by reducing the fine lines that encroach upon the lip margins and creating fullness. We specialise in using dermal fillers that enable us to achieve the degree of enhancement that you want to achieve - be it simple contouring to smooth out lines or create a more dramatic look.

Skin Rejuvenation using dermal fillers

The treatment produces an instant visible result improving the suppleness, elasticity and skin tone. Essentially, each type of dermal fillers has to be injected into the correct layer of the skin. Dr Naik will assess the level and type of dermal filler required for your treatment.

Restylane • Restylane Touch • Perlane • Restylane Lipp • Restylane Vital

At Gigi medical aesthetics we use Restylane Vital to create a fresh natural and more youthful appearance. This can be used in all skin areas where there are fine lines and signs of ageing, such as around the eyes, hollows of the cheeks, upper lip, neck, backs of hands, and decollétage.

Using the appropriate combination of dermal fillers the following problem areas can be effectively treated:

• crows feet at the corner of the eyes
• frown lines between the eyebrows
• smokers lines which are vertical lines on the top lip
• marionette lines at the corner of the mouth
• ‘worry lines that run across the forehead
• shape and fullness to lips
• acne scars
• depressions or pockmarks in the skin due to injury or disease, for example, chickenpox marks
• unevenness in the skin after surgery or skin grafting other facial lines.

There are a wide variety of dermal fillers available and Dr Naik will need to assess your skin carefully at your free consultation. BOOK YOUR FREE CONSULTATION NOW

At Gigi medical aesthetics we only use man made fillers as they do not require skin test prior to treatment. Restylane, allow the treatment to administered efficiently with little discomfort and recovery time providing instant and impressive results. One treatment generally lasts between six to twelve months after which you may require to repeat the treatment. Over time, the effects last longer and you should need to retreat areas less frequently.

Anaesthesia

At Gigi medical aesthetics we will use dental blocks for pain free dermal filler lip and mouth area treatments. The dental block is a safe local anaesthetic which is applied prior to receiving treatment. Anaesthetic cream is applied to the skin prior to treatment with dermal filler elsewhere.
