Face and Lip Fillers

Overview

Face and lip fillers, also referred to as dermal fillers, are substances used to restore lost volume, smooth wrinkles, and improve facial definition. These fillers can address common signs of aging, such as deep lines, hollow areas, and sagging skin by adding fullness to areas like the cheeks, under the eyes, jawline, and lips. The procedure is minimally invasive and provides immediate results, typically lasting anywhere from several months to a few years, depending on the type of filler used.

Types of Dermal Fillers

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic Acid is a type of sugar (polysaccharide) that is present in body tissues, such as in skin and cartilage. With its capacity to bind with water, this filler helps retain moisture in the skin tissues, making them plump. Examples of fillers that contain hyaluronic acid include Restylane and Juvederm.

Poly-L-lactic Acid

Poly-L-lactic Acid is a biodegradable, biocompatible man-made polymer that is technically classified as “collagen stimulator”. Their main mechanism is to smooth fine lines by helping your skin rebuild natural collagen—the filler gel itself dissipates a few days after treatment. Sculptra is an example of a filler made from this substance.

Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA)

Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is a biocompatible, non-biodegradable man-made polymer that is used as a semi-permanent filler. It contains microspheres, which are tiny particles that stay beneath the skin for an extended period of time to provide continued support. Bellafill is an example of a filler made with PMMA.

Calcium Hydroxylapatite

Calcium Hydroxylapatite is a mineral-like compound naturally found in human bones. This type of dermal filler typically has a thicker consistency and lasts longer than those with hyaluronic acid, making it a good option for deeper wrinkles and enhancing cheekbones. Radiesse is an example of a filler made from this substance.

About the Face and Lip Filler Procedure

The procedure for face and lip fillers involves placing a gel-like substance beneath the skin using a precise technique, targeting areas such as the cheeks, lips, or around the mouth. To minimise discomfort, a topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area at the beginning of the session.

The filler works by lifting and plumping the skin in specific areas of the face or lips to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, or enhance contours, giving you a more youthful, refreshed appearance.

The procedure is typically quick, taking about 30 minutes to an hour, with minimal downtime and results visible almost immediately.

Some mild swelling or redness may occur, but this usually subsides within a few hours to a few days.

Steps

Consultation

You’ll meet with our doctor to talk about your concerns and what you hope to achieve. They’ll assess your face and recommend the best filler type and amount for natural, balanced results.

Preparation

Before the treatment, you’ll receive clear instructions on how to prepare. This may include avoiding certain medications or skincare products to reduce the risk of bruising.

Treatment Day

A numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable. The filler is then injected into the chosen areas using a fine needle, and the process usually takes 30 to 60 minutes.

Recovery

You may have some swelling, redness, or mild bruising, which usually fades within a few days. Most people can return to normal activities shortly after the procedure.

Follow-Ups

You’ll be invited for a review appointment, usually after two weeks. This helps ensure the results have settled well and gives you a chance to ask any questions.

What to Expect After Treatment

You’ll notice an immediate improvement in volume and shape. The full result will settle over the next few days as any swelling reduces.

Over time, the filler helps to hydrate the skin and may support the body's natural collagen production. Results typically last between 6 to 18 months, depending on the product used and how your body responds.

Frequently Asked Questions

On the off chance you are not satisfied with the results, we can reverse the procedure and dissolve the filler in seconds. Also, since hyaluronic acid is naturally produced to keep the skin hydrated and supple, this type of filler can be metabolised or absorbed by your body in a few months. Being one of the best clinics for injectables, along with the best dermatologist in Dubai, we can guarantee natural-looking lip fillers and more symmetrical facial features.

We only use the highest-grade and FDA-approved dermal filler brands, including Allergan, Voluma, Volux, and Volite. Based on your skin type and desired results, our doctor will determine the best brand, type, and consistency.

The treated area may feel tender, swollen, and appear slightly red, but these effects should subside within a few hours. We recommend applying ice to the treated area for 10 to 15 minutes every hour for the first 24 to 48 hours after the treatment to help reduce swelling and bruising.

Getting face or lip fillers is generally painless and well-tolerated since you’ll receive a full local anesthetic before the treatment. Also, our facial symmetry experts in Dubai perform all procedures delicately to ensure that your experience is as pleasant as possible.

Lip fillers usually last 6 to 12 months, depending on various factors (type of filler, metabolism, how the body processes hyaluronic acid). Most fillers gradually break down over time, and touch-ups are needed to maintain the desired effect.

Most clients are able to return to daily activities right after their treatment. In some cases, face or lips may be a little bit swollen for up to 24 to 48 hours. Sometimes you might experience light bruising. Not to worry, we will provide personalised aftercare instructions and advise you on how to minimize these effects.

Yes, dermal filler is a safe treatment, when administered by a qualified clinic. Lip fillers are made from Hyaluronic Acid (HA), which is naturally present in our body. For this reason fillers are well-tolerated and, if needed, reversible. Like any cosmetic procedure, there are side effects. The common ones are temporary swelling, bruising, redness, or tenderness at the injection site.

To ensure your safety, choose a licensed professional with proven experience in dermal fillers, avoid unapproved/ low-quality fillers, ask any questions you have before and after the treatment, and follow the aftercare recommendations.

It’s best to wait at least 24 to 48 hours after a facial before having a lip filler. This allows your skin to settle and reduces the risk of irritation or swelling in the treated area.

Filler adds volume where it's needed, which can subtly improve facial balance or highlight certain features. It won’t dramatically change your face, but it can enhance specific areas like the lips, cheeks, or jawline.

The average cost for lip filler in Dubai ranges from AED 990 to AED 1,500 per session, depending on the brand used and the amount needed. A full consultation will help you understand the exact cost based on your goals.

Yes, having a facial a few days before your filler treatment is generally safe. Just make sure to leave enough time, ideally 48 hours, so the skin is calm and there’s no redness or sensitivity on the day of your filler.

You’ll see results straight after the procedure. Some swelling may be present, but this usually settles within a few days, revealing the final result.

I am absolutely thrilled with my lip filler results! I’ve always had thin lips, and now they’re fuller and perfectly shaped. The procedure was quick and relatively painless, and the swelling went down in just a day or two. I feel so much more confident and love the natural look. Highly recommend BROWZ for this procedure!

Rachel S.

I had dermal fillers at BROWZ to add volume to my cheeks and smooth out some fine lines around my mouth. The results are amazing! My face looks fuller and plump, but still natural. I couldn’t believe how subtle yet effective the transformation was. The procedure was smooth despite the slight redness after. I feel like I look 10 years younger!

Claire M.

I recently had face fillers to restore volume in my cheeks, and I’m beyond happy with how it turned out. My skin feels smoother and my face looks more balanced. My whole experience with BROWZ was easy, and I was back to my normal activities the next day. I didn’t realize how much of a difference it would make, but I’m so glad I did it!

Amanda P.

I had filler in my cheeks and lips for the first time, and I’m glad I trusted the process. My face looks fresher but still like me, which is exactly what I wanted. The lip shape is fuller without feeling overdone.
