Dermal fillers are injectable gels used to restore or enhance volume, definition and facial structure. Many modern dermal fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found within the body. At ELIA Clinic, treatments are tailored to your individual facial anatomy and aesthetic goals. Depending on the area being treated, dermal fillers can be used to enhance features, restore lost volume, improve facial proportions and create subtle, balanced definition. Our approach is focused on enhancing your natural features rather than changing the way you look.
Every face is different, which is why your treatment plan will be tailored to your individual features and desired outcome. Your appointment begins with a consultation, where we discuss your concerns and aesthetic goals and whether filler is the most appropriate solution. In some cases, another treatment, or no treatment at all, may be more suitable. Your safety will always take priority over treatment.

Dermal fillers are injectable gels used to restore or enhance volume, definition and facial structure. Many modern dermal fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found within the body.
At ELIA Clinic, treatments are tailored to your individual facial anatomy and aesthetic goals. Depending on the area being treated, dermal fillers can be used to enhance features, restore lost volume, improve facial proportions and create subtle, balanced definition. Our approach is focused on enhancing your natural features rather than changing the way you look.
Dermal fillers are widely used aesthetic treatments, but like any injectable procedure, they carry potential risks and side effects.
Common temporary effects include swelling, redness, tenderness, bruising and sensitivity around the treated area. More serious complications can occur, although they are uncommon, which is why appropriate assessment, product selection, anatomy knowledge and injection technique are essential.
At ELIA Clinic, your treatment begins with a consultation to assess your suitability, discuss potential risks and establish an appropriate treatment plan. Your safety will always take priority over treatment.
Dermal fillers can be used across a variety of areas of the face, depending on your individual anatomy and treatment goals.
Common treatment areas include:
Dermal fillers can be used to enhance and restore rather than simply add volume.
Depending on the treatment area, they may help to:
Temporary side effects are common following dermal filler treatment and can include:
These effects usually improve as the treated area heals.Although uncommon, dermal filler can also cause more serious complications, including infection, vascular occlusion and tissue damage. Your practitioner will discuss the relevant risks with you before treatment and provide appropriate aftercare guidance.
If you experience unusual or worsening pain, significant skin colour changes, marked swelling or any visual disturbance following treatment, you should contact ELIA Clinic immediately and seek urgent medical assessment where appropriate.
Your appointment begins with a consultation, where we discuss your concerns, aesthetic goals and the areas you would like to enhance. Your facial anatomy will then be assessed and a personalised treatment plan discussed with you.
Once you are happy to proceed, the treatment area will be cleansed and prepared. Depending on the area and product being used, topical or local anaesthetic may be used to improve comfort.
The filler is then carefully placed using an appropriate injection technique. Treatment time varies depending on the area being treated.
Some swelling, redness or tenderness immediately afterwards is normal. You will be given aftercare advice and guidance on what to expect during the healing process.
Yes. Dermal fillers can be suitable for both men and women, with treatment tailored to the individual’s facial anatomy, proportions and aesthetic goals.
At ELIA Clinic, we recognise that masculine and feminine facial structures can differ, so treatment planning is never simply about adding volume. For men, filler may be used to enhance areas such as the jawline, chin and cheeks, while maintaining natural-looking masculine proportions. For women, treatment may focus on areas such as the lips, cheeks, chin or overall facial balance.
The goal is always to complement your existing features rather than create a generic result.
The best way to determine whether dermal filler is appropriate is through a personalised consultation.
During your consultation at ELIA Clinic, we will assess your facial anatomy, discuss your concerns and understand what you would like to achieve. We can then explain the treatment options available and whether filler is the most appropriate solution.
In some cases, another treatment, or no treatment at all may be more suitable. Your safety, suitability and desired outcome will always come first.
Yes, dermal fillers can sometimes be combined with other aesthetic treatments as part of a personalised treatment plan.
For example, dermal filler and anti-wrinkle treatments can address different aspects of facial ageing and aesthetics, filler can help restore or enhance structure and volume, while anti-wrinkle treatment works by reducing specific muscle activity.
However, combining treatments isn’t automatically appropriate for everyone. Your suitability, treatment areas and timing will be assessed during your consultation to ensure the approach is appropriate for you.
Your treatment should always be your choice. If, during your consultation, we feel that dermal filler isn’t appropriate for you or won’t achieve what you’re looking for, we’ll explain why and discuss alternative options where appropriate. There is never an obligation to proceed with treatment following a consultation.
If you have had dermal filler treatment and later decide that you no longer want the filler, there may be an option to have hyaluronic acid filler dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase.
This can be discussed during a consultation, where we can assess the treated area and determine whether dissolving is appropriate. The process, results and potential risks will be explained to you before proceeding.
Dissolving is a separate treatment and is not included in the original cost of your dermal filler treatment. Additional fees apply.
Your decision to have filler is always yours, and we want you to feel informed and comfortable with your treatment at every stage.
The longevity of dermal filler varies from person to person and depends on factors including the product used, treatment area, amount injected, metabolism, lifestyle and previous treatments.
Some results may last several months, while others can last longer. Lip filler, for example, may behave differently from structural filler used in areas such as the cheeks or jawline.
Your final result also takes time to settle. Swelling usually reduces over the days following treatment, while the treated area continues to settle as the filler integrates with the surrounding tissue.
During your consultation, we can discuss what you can realistically expect from your specific treatment.
The first step is to book a consultation at ELIA Clinic.
During your consultation, we will discuss your goals, assess your facial anatomy and determine whether dermal filler is an appropriate option for you. We will then create a personalised treatment plan based on your individual needs.
There is never any pressure to proceed with treatment. Our priority is making sure you understand your options and feel confident in your decision.
