What can you expect from Dermal Fillers?
Before you can initiate any treatment, you must go to a free-of-cost consultation with Dr Saba Raja. She will discuss your prerequisites with you, research on your clinical history and will decide if you are eligible for treatment. At this stage, we will give you some good advice on an appropriate treatment plan and anticipated outcomes.
At the point when a reasonable course of treatment has been thought of, you will either be given a topical anaesthetic or an injectable anaesthetic to limit any uneasiness or pain. Now, numerous dermal fillers available, already have anaesthetic in them, so additional sedation you may not generally require preceding treatment.
The treatment takes somewhere in the range of 30 to 45 minutes, contingent upon the area being treated, and this includes injecting the dermal filler just underneath the skin’s surface with a fine needle or cannula. If need be, Dr Saba will massage the region following the injections, so that the product underneath smooths out.
There is no need for a period of medical rest after treatment with dermal fillers. Nonetheless, you may encounter some bruises, swelling, and slight pain in the treated region for a few days after procedure. Dr Saba will advise you on effective aftercare, for example, not doing anything that will increase your body temperature and make you feel hot, like arduous exercise, saunas or hot showers, since this could build the odds of bruising. Some suggest paracetamol for any pain. However, we don’t suggest anti-inflammatories as they can likewise build the danger of wounding. You will be able to apply light make-up, 24 hours after treatment.
The longevity
Results fluctuate in their longevity, contingent upon the region that is dealt with and your metabolic reaction to dermal fillers. If you are an especially active individual, investing heaps of energy and time in the gym, or on the off chance that you smoke, or spend a great deal of time in the sun, this can decrease the longevity of your results. Keep in mind that dermal fillers should usually last somewhere in the range of 9 to 18 months.
