Combat Facial Ageing With Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

A youthful face has smooth skin, the ability to reflect light and has fullness in the upper areas, but over time, years of sun exposure, pollution and everyday stress will affect our appearance. The body produces less of the natural substances that's needed to keep our skin firm and well hydrated, which all cause facial lines and wrinkles to appear.

We use dermal fillers to fill depressions on the face, hands and body. Injectable fillers are the perfect way to enhance your facial features ,because they can help to fill shallow contours, plump up thin lips, soften folds and wrinkles on the face and improve scars and other facial defects.


The ageing process begins when we are about 25 and over the next decade:
  • Skin cell turnover slows down and dead cells remain on the skin creating a dull appearance
  • Early wrinkles can begin to appear around the eyes
  • The lines from the nose to mouth become more prominent
  • The jaw line begins to soften 
From age 35 to 45
  • Lines and wrinkles will deepen, and frown lines can give your face an angry look
  • Your skin type may change, from oily to dry or vice versa
  • Pigmentation changes on your skin
From age 45 onwards
  • In menopause, oestrogen levels decrease, causing collagen to deplete
  • Volume loss
  • Skin can become dry and dehydrated
  • Pigmentation will become more visible
  • The face begins to drop
  • The jaw area loses definition

Wrinkles and creases on the face are part of the ageing process and they begin to appear as the collagen and elastin fibres break down, but they can also result from excessive frowning, smiling or squinting.

Dynamic lines are when lines, wrinkles and other signs of ageing occur on the face when it's in motion. They're also called expression lines; laughter lines, frown lines and bunny lines, which are harmless at a younger age but will often contribute to where the deeper set folds and wrinkles will remain in later life.

Static lines are noticable wrinkles, lines, sagging and folds which are present on the resting face; sagging jaw line, nasal folds, sunken cheeks and horizontal forehead lines. These lines, if left untreated, will stay on the face and will progressively worsen.

Dermal Fillers are a temporary solution, as the hyaluronic acid in the fillers is naturally degradable, and is naturally broken down and eventually absorbed by the body. Fillers are effective at restoring hydration to the skin, smoothing lines and wrinkles and can also restore and enhance the facial shape. The fillers last around 9 to 12 months, although this may vary from person to person, depending on their lifestyle and which part of the face gets injected.
