Hyaluronic Acid Fillers and Reversable

Dermal fillers, as the name suggests, is used to fill and restore volume-loss in facial areas. It is a temporary, effective, non-surgical procedure with immediate results. Used to soften facial wrinkles, plump lips and fill out recessed facial areas. Fillers work by adding small amounts of volume along the crease or depressions in different skin depths depending on the area of volume loss. This volume plumps up the skin and reduces or eliminates the recessed area / crease. It is also used to finetune facial proportions, accentuating your best features.

Dr. Smit uses fillers containing Hyaluronic Acid. Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a naturally occurring sugar found in our body’s tissues, which apart from lubricating and adding volume, also delivers nutrients to the skin to retain moisture, resulting in softer, plumper skin, and ultimately a more youthful appearance.

Some of our filler benefits include:

Control over volume. The amount of substance injected can be controlled, so the doctor has better control over how much volume is created.
Gradual pace of treatment. The injections can be given gradually during different appointments until the desired results are achieved. Less is so very often more.
Bumps dissolve easily. Any lumps and bumps created by movement of tissues can be dissolved easily.
Less bruising. There may be less bruising and swelling compared to other dermal fillers.
Reasonably lasting results. The results are reasonably long-lasting, but not permanent.
Allergic reaction unlikely. Because hyaluronic acid fillers are made from substances similar to those found in the body, they are unlikely to cause an allergic reaction. But if you are allergic to lidocaine, please tell us before being treated.
Another benefit of Hyaluronic Acid fillers is that they are instantly reversible with an injection of hyaluronidase, an enzyme that simply melts the filler away.
