TREATMENTS

Non-Permanent Dermal Fillers
There are many types of Dermal filler injections. The fillers used in Hertford Aesthetics are regulated, non-permanent, reversible and contain Hyaluronic Acid. Dermal fillers treat static lines where there is no muscle activity and also areas where there is loss of volume. These dermal fillers plump and volumise giving a smooth, hydrated appearance. The results are immediately visible and typically last 9-12 months or longer.

Hyaluronic acid is a sugar molecule that naturally occurs in our bodies. It plays an essential role in skin repair. Hyaluronic acid diminishes in our bodies as we age causing loss of volume, contributing and resulting in the formation of lines and wrinkles. Dermal filler injections containing Hyaluronic Acid binds to water molecules increasing hydration and volume.
The hyaluronic acid is biocompatible and biodegradable and is non animal in origin. There is no risks of allergy as our bodies contain Hyaluronic acid.
