Restore what time has taken, and keep your face looking like yours.

With age, the face loses volume, lines deepen and contours soften. Dermal fillers can restore that volume and smooth those lines in a short visit, with little or no downtime. At Prism Aesthetics Clinic, our doctors offer Dermal Fillers Injections in Dubai & Abu Dhabi with a conservative approach. We start with a small amount and review you afterwards, rather than doing everything in one sitting, because the best results are the ones that look natural. If a request would look overdone on your face, we will tell you. Read on to see how it works, what recovery is like and what it costs.

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are soft gels injected under the skin to restore volume, smooth lines and refine contours. Most are made of hyaluronic acid, a substance the body already makes, which attracts water and gives a soft, natural feel. Different fillers have different textures: softer ones suit fine lines and delicate areas, and firmer ones suit cheeks, the chin and the jawline. Hyaluronic acid fillers are temporary and can be dissolved with an enzyme if needed. Fillers add volume and shape, but they do not tighten loose skin the way surgery does.

Aim of Dermal Fillers:

  • Restore volume in the cheeks, temples and mid-face
  • Smooth lines and folds such as those from the nose to the mouth
  • Soften hollows under the eyes
  • Define the chin and jawline
  • Give a fresher, more balanced and youthful look

Who Should Consider Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers may suit you if you:

  • Notice volume loss, hollowing or deepening lines
  • Want a quick, non-surgical refresh with little downtime
  • Want to define your cheeks, chin or jawline
  • Are over 18 and in good general health
  • Have realistic expectations about the result

Fillers are not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or if you have an active infection or skin condition in the treatment area. If you have significant loose, sagging skin, a lifting treatment may suit you better, alone or together with fillers. Your doctor will tell you honestly which option fits.

Types Of Dermal Fillers at Prism Aesthetics Clinic:

How to Prepare for Dermal Fillers?

  • Avoid blood thinners such as aspirin and ibuprofen for a few days, unless your doctor says otherwise
  • Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before treatment
  • Avoid supplements such as fish oil and vitamin E for a few days beforehand, as your doctor advises
  • Tell your doctor about all medicines, allergies, health conditions and previous fillers
  • Avoid dental work for a couple of weeks before and after
  • Do not book treatment right before an important event, in case of swelling or bruising
  • Come with a clean face and no makeup

Procedure of Dermal Fillers:

  1. Initial Consultation: Your doctor assesses your face, discusses your goals, explains the products and amounts, and sets out the cost clearly.
  2. Cleansing & Numbing: The skin is cleaned and numbing cream is applied.
  3. Marking: Injection points are marked to plan a balanced result.
  4. Injection: Small amounts of filler are placed with a fine needle or cannula, at the right depth for each area.
  5. Shaping: Your doctor gently molds the filler and checks symmetry.
  6. Aftercare Briefing: We explain how to care for your skin and when to come back for a review.
