Filler treatments have taken over the world, our phones, magazines and our minds. Even if you have never considered altering any features or thought there was anything wrong with the way you are, now, filler treatments have you thinking otherwise. However, if you were always wondering how to achieve those fuller looking lips or lift the tip of your nose without paying an arm and a leg. Or the idea of going through a surgery makes your stomach churn, then the arrival of dermal filler treatments feels a gift handed to you on a silver plate.
Are filler treatments worth the hype?
Filler treatment is great. A new technology a lot of people can benefit from. Whether it’s due to ageing and you’d like to regain volume in certain areas of the face, or if you’d like to achieve a more harmonious and balanced side profile. Dermal filler treatment makes it easy. Results are practically instant. You will instantly see increased volume and definition in the areas treated. Final results cannot be judged until the initial 2 week swelling period is over and the filler has settled, but you will definitely be glad to see your money’s worth right off the bat.
Is Filler treatment worth it in the long run?
Yes. Filler treatment already lasts a while depending on the area injected, your metabolic rate and lifestyle. Filler also never completely breaks down when you notice results fade away, therefore it is likely it will last even longer the second and third time and might hardly need another touch up again!
What make it most worthwhile is, funnily enough, its temporary nature. You always have the choice and flexibility in future to change your mind and have the filler dissolved should you wish to do so without any crazy adverse effects. Having a filler treatment done allows a peace of mind that there is no room for regret.
How can I be sure that my filler treatment is being done correctly?
To ensure your filler treatment is being done to the best of standards you must ensure the practitioner administering the filler treatment is also the best.
The first step would be searching up the clinic and finding out any credentials they may have on their website. A very hand tool not everyone knows about is Save Face. This is an accredited organisation recognised by the NHS who review and check clinic standards, safety and qualifications. Once they’re approved, they will publish them as safe to receive treatment from. This is a great place to filter out any dangerous people pretending to be qualified to provide treatment.
Final step would be to book in a consultation and meet the person who will be providing the filler treatment. It is important to feel comfortable around the person who will be altering the features of your face. Make sure you feel heard and understood. Ensure you feel that you can trust them Do not be shy and ask them anything you’re unsure.
How can I be sure I am the right candidate for filler treatment?
First of all, do not allow the craze of filler treatments be the reason for getting a filler treatment done. Don’t just do it because everyone else is doing it, what works for one doesn’t work for all. Ensure you’re doing it for all the right reason such as making yourself happy, giving yourself a new found confidence or exploring what works for you.
Finally, you must ensure you are provided with a detailed consultation by a medically trained practitioner who you can sense are providing you with honest, sound advice rather than pushing for sales. They will advise you honestly what treatment will be suitable for you and create harmony between your feature. Remember what we said what works for others may not work for you. “Kylie Jenner” lips may look great on Kylie herself and a few others but look terribly out of proportion for the rest.
