Dermal Fillers

There are many fillers to choose from and sometimes it can be difficult to determine which filler is right for you.

Emma evaluates each of her patients in person, determines their specific cosmetic concerns, provides a list of recommendations, and creates a customised cosmetic treatment plan.

Emma’s preferred filler range is the award winning & CE Marked TEOXANE RHA®. Emma is trained to inject dermal filler with both needle and micro cannula. A filler treatment may last a longer or shorter duration on different parts of the face. For example, the lips tend to have lots of movement and so filler breaks down faster. However, cheeks have less movement and so filler injected in this part of the face usually last longer. Dermal filler on average last 6-18months.

Of course, it is important to remember that every patient’s body is different and every patient can respond differently to fillers based on such factors as diet, exercise, baseline metabolism, sun-exposure and smoking. In general, Emma recommends maintenance treatments so that the results never completely return to baseline.

She also recommends that patients start an at-home medical grade TEOXANE RHA skincare regimen to maintain their results. This regimen usually includes a combination of antioxidants, sunscreen and moisturisers.
