FAQ
Which areas can be treated?
Moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds of all types. Marionette lines. Nasolabial folds.
When will i see results?
With Dermal Fillers you will see immediate results, but full effect will be seen within two weeks as swelling and slight bruising will subside. However, results from injectable dermal fillers may vary and correction is temporary. Supplemental “touch up” treatments may be required to achieve and maintain optimal correction of your wrinkles and folds.
is the treatment painful?
Desired areas will be treated with a topical high-grade numbing cream. You may experience a slight burning sensation during injections, although numbing cream lessens this sensation. The procedure (depending on areas treated) takes typically a total of 1 hour.
