Fillers


A dermal filler is a gel product that is injected or placed into the dermis in order 
to restore its original youthful state and replace soft-tissue volume loss.

IUVENTU Clinic only uses natural products 100% re-absorbable. According to recent studies non re-absorbable fillers may be harmful in the long term.


TYPES OF DERMAL FILLERS

Hyaluronic acid is a substance that is normally produced by the body. It is what gives skin its volume and fullness.


WHAT IS IT FOR?

Fillers are not effective for mimic wrinkles (e.g. frown lines), due to excessive muscles activity. For this Botulinum toxin is more indicated.

Fillers are ideal for:

Deep wrinkles (e.g. naso-labial folds)

Restore volume loss (cheeks)

Enhance or reshape different facial areas (e.g. under eye, lips, nose)


WHAT TO EXPECT?

The effect is immediate. In some cases we can notice a slight redness / swelling around the injection point but it only lasts for a short period of time. The result lasts from 6 up to 24 months, depending on the product used and the individual’s skin type, lifestyle and age. Follow up sessions are normally recommended around the every 4 to 12 months.


WHAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED?

The treatments are generally tolerable, and fast return to normal activities. Blood thinning medications such as aspirins should be avoided one week before the treatment. Fillers treatments are not recommended during the pregnancy period.
