Dermal fillers are a popular non-surgical procedure to restore volume or soften lines, while Profhilo can help tighten loose skin and stimulate new collagen formation. Maisam Fazel can use dermal fillers and Profhilo to enhance facial features such as the lips, cheeks or chin or to reverse the signs of facial ageing.

Benefits
As we age, we lose volume in the face. This causes hollows to appear at the temples, the cheeks to flatten, folds to appear between the nose and mouth and loss of definition along the jawline.
Profhilo works well with traditional dermal fillers to help tighten lax skin by producing new collagen and giving an overall boost to the skin.
Maisam Fazel can combine dermal fillers with other non-surgical procedures for a full facial rejuvenation in a method known as the ‘Liquid Facelift’.

Often, multiple different therapies can be combined to provide an overall refreshed look.
FAQ
What is hyaluronic acid?
Many of the temporary dermal filler products available are composed of hyaluronic acid. This substance is naturally found in the body, either to lubricate joints and tissues or to hydrate and volumise the skin. As we age, our natural levels of hyaluronic acid begin to deplete, which causes many signs of the facial ageing. Dermal fillers containing hyaluronic acid can plump and fill as well as improve skin hydration.
What areas can be treated by dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers can be used to soften lines and wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes. Tear troughs and nasolabial folds can be filled. The lips, brows, chin and cheeks can all be enhanced and recontoured. Overall skin laxity can be improved with a combination of dermal fillers and Profhilo.
How long do the results of dermal fillers last?
Results are instant and can last between 6 to 18 months, depending on the product and where it is placed. With time, the body’s enzymes naturally breakdown the fillers.
Are dermal fillers safe?
Dermal fillers are generally considered a very safe procedure, but they should be administered by a highly experienced injector such as Maisam Fazel. The products used by Maisam Fazel are highly compatible with the body and have been thoroughly tested, so the risk of an allergic reaction or other complications is rare.
Is having dermal fillers painful?
The products contain a local anaesthetic so there is usually no discomfort felt, but Maisam Fazel can also apply a local anaesthetic in advance of the treatment if desired.
