  There is a small amount of discomfort associated with having cheek fillers. For example, most of our patients describe it as aching pain, but you can ask for a numbing cream to reduce the discomfort.

• + Will the effects be permanent?

  Cheek fillers are temporary lasting six to twelve months for most of our patients. However, the length of time is dependent on several factors including treatment area, skin elasticity, injection technique, type of filler and your metabolism.

  If you have good general health, you would be eligible except if your pregnant. However, we explain the eligibility process with greater depth at your consultation.

• + Which dermal filler last the longest?

  The length of dermal fillers depends on a variety of factors: density of the filler, injection area and the patient’s metabolism.

However, natural dermal fillers are safer than permanent dermal fillers as they can cause rashes, swelling, itching or bruising.
