Hyaluronic Fillers

Dermal fillers are excellent treatments that provide aesthetic solutions for a range of common facial concerns, provide a beautiful softness , and a more youthful appearance without surgery.

The younger clients like to enhance what nature has given them with enhancement of cheek bones and lips as desired.

The fillers are made of hyaluronic acid which is a naturally occurring product in the skin, but declines with age. If the end result is not satisfactory, the hyaluronic acid can be adjusted using hyalase or the product can be dissolved completely .
