Are there any side effects?
Here at Synergy Aesthetics we only use temporary dermal fillers – this makes the product and procedure a safer alternative to more permanent treatment options. Most common side effects occur immediately after treatment and consist of redness,
swelling and bruising at the site of injection. This is normal and generally resolves within a couple of days. Glasses should not be worn for 48 hours after treatment as this may affect the treatment result.
Serious side effects from injections are very rare – however when we use products there is always a risk of allergy and whenever we break the skin, it carries the risk of infection. Should any side effects occur it is possible for the hyaluronic acid to be dissolved by our advanced practitioner.
Treatment will only be carried out following a thorough medical consultation with our Advanced Nurse Practitioner/ Independent Prescriber. This allows side effects to be discussed in detail before treatment is commenced.
* Only FDA approved dermal filler used *
How long will the results last?
Most Hyaluronic Acid dermal fillers last between 6-9 months. However, some dermal filler can last up to 12-18 months although you may find that you need further injections again in a shorter time depending on individual characteristics.
Overtime your body will break down the dermal filler naturally and its effects will appear to weaken – your skin will then return to its pre-treatment state. We recommend that you visit us 1-2 times per year to ensure we maintain your desired
results.
How long does the treatment take to perform?
The procedure can be performed quickly and easily – it usually takes between 15-30 minutes – and results are immediate. The vast majority of patients are able to carry on with their daily activities immediately after the procedure.
