Dermal Fillers

Dermal filler injections effectively smooth facial wrinkles and fill facial furrows such as the mouth furrows, cheek furrows and hollow circles under the eyes. Filler injections are also commonly used to restore shape, volume and fullness to the lips, cheeks and the chin. These products produce superb results alone or can be used in combination with muscle-relaxing injections, lasers or skin-care as part of an individually designed programme. Depending on what you desire the result can be reduction or removal of the signs of ageing in your skin, giving you a fresher, smoother and more youthful appearance.

These products treat a range of areas and are ideal for:

thin facial lines and creases
the furrows between the nose and mouth
enhancing lips
lines and furrows (marionettes) at the corners of the mouth
smokers’ lines or lipstick bleed lines which run vertically around the mouth
hollowing and dark circles around the eyes
improving deflated sagging areas of the face
creating or restoring a more defined facial contour, especially the cheeks and chin.

The dermal filler injections used at Liberty Belle contain the purified complex sugar found naturally throughout our skin and body. Hyaluronic acid is the naturally occurring complex sugar in the skin which holds water, hydrates and provides volume and plumpness to our skin. As we age skin loses its collagen and elasticity and the distribution of hyaluronic acid in the skin tends to diminish, causing wrinkles, deeper lines and deflated areas to appear on our face.

Dermal fillers containing a purified complex sugar like that found in nature can improve your appearance by filling and smoothing wrinkles and creases, rehydrating dry or thin skin, enhancing facial features, and creating fuller lips. This creates a smoother, more refreshed facial appearance, offering a natural beauty lift using one of the body’s own natural substances.

The filler products used at Liberty Belle contain a gel form of non-animal based purified complex sugar virtually identical to those found in nature so they are very safe and no allergy testing is necessary. The risk of any side effect such as allergic reaction is extremely low, being about 1 in 10,000 treatments

Precisely placed Injections of filler into the skin will ‘fill’ wrinkles and furrows, plump the skin and rejuvenate the face. At Liberty Belle we provide a complete range of the most advanced fillers with different consistencies and volumes of product so we can best treat all the different facial areas and problems. The doctors and clinical nurse specialists at Liberty Belle will discuss your concerns and aims and advise the most appropriate treatment regime for you.

How long does it take?

The procedure usually takes about 30 minutes. The gel is injected into the skin in tiny amounts with a very fine needle. The treatment area may be numbed using some cream or local anaesthetic after which there should be little or no discomfort during and after the procedure.

Will it be painful?

The treatment area may be numbed using some cream or local anaesthetic after which there should be little or no discomfort during and after the procedure.

When will I see the results?

The result is instantaneous and produces a long-lasting, natural appearing enhancement, which is gentle and safe for your skin.

Are there any side effects?

Some swelling may occur and occasionally there is a small temporary bruise but this can be covered with makeup. There is no down time after your treatment and you can return to your busy schedule immediately.

How long does the treatment last?

One of the great advantages of these products is they are long lasting, but not permanent. Unlike permanent treatments or implants, the dermal fillers used at Liberty Belle allow you the option of re-evaluating your needs when the initial effect has worn off. You will always have the option of continuing or changing the combination of treatments. A repeat can be performed at any time you like after the previous treatment, but this is usually after 6 to 12 months.
