Dermal fillers are a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment that can improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles, or add definition to desired areas and are available in Hertfordshire at Harpenden Skin Clinic.
Dermal fillers at Harpenden can be used for many purposes, from lessening the signs of aging, to erasing acne scarring or enhancing the jaw line.
The results are profound and create a naturally youthful appearance without the need to undergo cosmetic surgery.
Dermal fillers are the perfect choice for anyone who wants to boost self-esteem and enhance their look in a safe and effective manner.
The treatment is quick, with little risk, requires no recovery and leaves your skin unblemished and scar-free.

Dermal fillers involve an injection.
A filler containing the natural substance ‘hyaluronic acid’ is injected into the designated area of the body.
Hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in the body and is responsible for the smoothness of the skin and skin repair.
It also boosts the production of collagen.
Collagen is a protein that is mainly found in the skin and is responsible for firmness, elasticity and cell renewal.
After the age of 30, its production gradually declines, leading to wrinkles and sagging.
Dermal fillers replace what age takes away by regenerating the natural substances of the skin.
This is different to treatments such as Botox which reduce lines by suppressing muscle contraction.
Dermal fillers are not permanent.
After a time, the collagen stimulating effects will wear off.
This can vary based on the type and quantity of the filler and the area of the body injected, but dermal fillers typically last around 18 months. Ongoing treatments would maintain the results.
Step one is to book onto a consultation. This will give you a chance to speak to one of our aesthetic specialists about any concerns you may have, and what results you are looking for.
Everybody is unique and it is important to us that we design the best treatment plan for you.
The next step is often the most scary; the treatment itself.
At Harpenden, we understand that a degree of nerves come with committing to a body modification, but we do our best to make the process as comfortable as possible.
Remember that the effects of dermal fillers are not permanent, and if you are not happy with the results, modern fillers can be flushed out with an enzyme.
The injection itself is quick and an anaesthetic is used to numb the area.
The results are instantaneous.
There may be mild pain and swelling at worst, but these usually subside within 48 hours.
There is no need for downtime after treatment, allowing you to go about your day as normal.
Tear Troughs – Dermal fillers are administered via a cannula and used to restore lost volume beneath the eyes. Say goodbye to those heavy ‘eyes bags’ and embrace a rejuvenated, lively look.
Sculpted Cheeks – A naturally flatter cheekbone, weight loss or aging can cause the cheeks to look gaunt. Dermal fillers will plump up the cheek, contouring the face for a youthful appearance.
Non-surgical Rhinoplasty – Dermal fillers can change the shape, size and contours of the nose, drastically altering the appearance of the face with little effort.
Jaw Enhancement – A weak chin or jaw can be enhanced through injections into specific areas, increasing length, width or projection. The shape of your face will be significantly altered without the need for invasive surgery.
Full-face Filler Treatment – A combination of treatments is tailored specifically to you, targeting multiple signs of aging and balancing the dimensions of the face.
Hand Rejuvenation – Dermal fillers are used to add volume to thinning skin on the hands and the hollows between fingers. They say that the true signs of age can be found on the hands, but with this treatment, no-one will ever know.
Liquid Facelift/Non-surgical Facelift – Dermal fillers are used alongside anti-wrinkle injections to minimise lines and wrinkles and fill out sagging skin. Much more cost-effective than a traditional facelift, the liquid facelift also comes with minimal risks.
