Dermal Fillers
Concerns/Indications
Dermal fillers are a great way to keep the visible signs of ageing at bay, and with good reason. They are safe, painless, and give great results!
At Persona in Bexley we have been creating youthful looks for many years, always delighting our dermal fillers clients who come from Bexley, Sidcup, Dartford, Swanley, Gravesend, Orpington, Bromley, and from further into Kent. We also have clients who come from many parts of London, Surrey, and Essex.
The fillers we use at Persona have been specifically chosen for their clinical proven versatility, safety and efficacy and we only use approved brands such as Restylane, Juvederm Ultra, Radiesse and Belotero with prices starting from as little as £225.
Our chosen range of fillers allows you the choice to have as much or as little treatment as you wish, ranging from a specific area through to your whole face. Your skin will look plumper and firmer, resulting in a younger looking and more radiant you – but no-one will quite know why!
How Dermal fillers help you
Youthful skin is naturally rich in hyaluronic acid and collagen, but as we age, production of these substances becomes less efficient. This leads to loss of support and firmness in the skin, and the appearance of lines. Dermal fillers work by replacing these lost substances, hence filling lines, restoring volume and rejuvenating your skin, giving it a youthful, plumper and more radiant appearance.
Studies have shown that having dermal filler procedures can actually increase your own natural collagen production, slowing down the ageing process. This is why our clients return to us time after time.
Dermal filler procedures are hugely popular worldwide and at Persona we use them to treat the following concerns:
FACE
BODY

All fillers are painlessly injected into the skin via very fine needles and produce immediate results. We offer a range of fillers to enable us to choose the correct product for the right indication to target your specific needs.
The aesthetic outcome as well as longevity can be improved through regular treatment and results can be further enhanced when used in combination with other treatments.

FAQ’s
A. Dermal fillers are sterile gels used to plump up areas of the skin, helping them look firmer and restoring the skin’s former youthful appearance.
A. Treatments take about 20 minutes.
A. This will depend on the type of filler used and the structure of your skin, plus factors such as lifestyle and age etc. Hyaluronic acid products such as Restylane and Juvederm typically last 6-12 months and Radiesse typically lasts 12-18 months. Additional touch-up treatments can be performed at any time after the initial treatment.
