“If you put the right amount of dermal filler in the right place, it looks completely natural.” Mum was relieved to hear it, but also surprised. She couldn't understand why anyone would want to look overdone and unnatural, but she thought that's what dermal filler was all about.
To answer simply, no, dermal fillers will not make you look unnatural. If done by a professional, dermal fillers can accentuate your features rather than attempting to create a new look.
Even as the hyaluronic acid is processed by your body, healthy collagen and elastin grow at a more significant rate. This means you will see initial improvement nearly immediately. They will improve over six to eight weeks.
Yes, lip fillers can give you a natural-looking result. Depending on what type of dermal filler you choose and the results you want, lip fillers can give you anywhere from a natural appearance to a celebrity-like pout.
Done well, dermal filler can be absolutely amazing. It can make you look less tired, less sad, less saggy and more attractive. It can reshape your lips and restore hollows under your eyes. But some practitioners don't – or can't – keep their patients looking natural.
We would not usually recommend less than 1ml for an initial lip filler appointment to achieve noticeable-yet-natural-looking results.
Bad lip fillers will be easily noticeable, and this is why the treatment has become synonymous with unnatural-looking results. 'Good' lip filler results aren't that detectable, because they look so natural!
When the upper lip is equal to or begins to exceed the volume of the lower, the augmentation starts to look fake. Once that ratio is breached, the result degrades rapidly, even with minor volume additions.
If you're unhappy with your appearance after treatment with dermal fillers, you need to notify your injector and reach out to a qualified plastic surgeon to perform the correction.
The effects of the fillers will wear off after months or years, but the treated area is likely to return to its original state. The benefits of both Botox and fillers will be gone and you'll notice that those lines and volume loss will come back.
Dermal filler will not cause the skin to stretch and sag, once the filler naturally breaks down. The only case where this would happen is if the face were to be grossly overfilled with extreme amounts of dermal fillers, which is something we most certainly do not do at Cityskin.
Botox warrants the most natural results, compared to other forms of plastic surgery. Botox works with your body instead of forcing your skin to move one way or another. As a result, your skin will look more natural, even if you experience minor redness or bruising following the injection.
Sometimes it takes your skin awhile to settle in after being injected with hyaluronic-acid based dermal fillers. Bruising and swelling can last for about two weeks. Also, these fillers are hydrophilic, so they tend to look better with time as they absorb moisture and settle into your skin.
If you are familiar with the person, you may notice the increase in lip size, especially if they've experienced slight swelling, typically short-lived common side effects. They may also have some minor bruising of the lips; this can also signify a recent lip filler treatment.
These dermal fillers can be treated with a steroid injection to reverse some of the effects of these fillers. The best and most certain course of treatment is to wait for the body to absorb these fillers. This can require waiting for the treatments to fade over a year or so.
Aesthetic Nurse and lip expert Julie Horne explains how she creates truly natural and full lips with Restylane® KYSSE™ and that people in the street won't notice the lip treatment - but the results will make you feel more confident.
Light, soft, hyaluronic acid fillers, like Restylane®, give the lips the most natural and attractive look. Found naturally in our skin and lips, hyaluronic acid plumps, firms, and shapes the lips by attracting and holding water.
For those individuals who want a very very subtle change, the change I refer to as “hydrated and slightly defined” this would be achieved with a 0.5ml overall. This will not be noticeable to many around you but it is something you will see yourself as a hydrated/rejuvenated overall look.
0.5ml is a great introductory filler amount for first-time lip filler clients, especially if you're nervous of what the result will be. Remember you will swell after treatment a little, so you will not see major change with 0.5ml after the treatment has settled over the first 2-4 weeks.
So how many years younger can dermal fillers make you look? Dermal fillers can actually reduce perceived age by 5 to 10 years. By eliminating facial wrinkles and restoring fullness to the skin, this injectable solution can erase years off your face in no time.
There are a number of different and effective options available for small or subtle dermal filler treatments that can help to optimise facial features without compromising facial identity.
Depending on the amount of lip fullness desired by the patient, 1 ml of filler or less is sufficient. In lip augmentation, 0.5-2 ml of filler injection is usually applied for the first time.
