Dermal Fillers
Dermal Fillers
Hyaluronic acid is a very safe biodegradable injectable material that is used to restore structure and volume to the skin. Deep frown lines folds around the mouth, laugh lines, sunken cheeks, wrinkles and folds on the face are wiped out by injecting fillers. Fillers are also used for augmentation of the nose, brow, chin, neck, and lips.
Key Benefits
- Restores lost volume: Injectable fillers can replace the lost volume over years in various areas of the face such as the cheeks, lips and under the eyes creating a more refreshed youthful appearance.
- Smooths out wrinkles: In addition to adding the lost volume, injectable fillers can also smoothen out wrinkles and fine lines, particularly around the mouth and eyes by hydrating the skin from underneath.
- Enhances facial features & contours: Fillers can also enhance facial contours, creating a more sculpted appearance when placed in the right amount in the right area.
How Can Dermal Fillers Enhance My Appearance?
While dermal fillers are casually known as “wrinkle fillers,” they can do much more than just smooth out wrinkles.They REFRESH, LIFT, FILL, CONTOUR AND VOLUMIZE the face.Here are a few of the common issues dermal fillers can help address:
- Mid face and cheek contouring
- Enhances & restores volume to sunken cheeks or temples
- Tear trough correction or sunken eyes
- Nasolabial folds correction
- Cheek augmentation
- Chin augmentation
- Creating a sharp jawline
- Signs of aging in the
- Diminish vertical lip lines or perioral rejuvenation.
- Plump & enhance the lips
- Smooth out a chin crease
- Improve symmetry among facial features
Which filler do I need?
With so many dermal filler products on the market, it can be difficult to know which option is best for you. Each product is uniquely formulated to have a certain texture, density and injection depth, which means that certain fillers work better for specific areas of concern. Dr. Neha specializes in antiageing will determine what product is best for you
How Long Do the Results Last?
How long the effects of dermal fillers will last depends on the product, the area of treatment and the patient. Generally speaking, the denser the product is and the more deeply it is injected, the longer it will last, although this is not a hard and fast rule.
Hyaluronic acid fillers tend to be the most temporary option and these will typically last from 6 to 18 months. Injections to the lips will wear out a little faster than those to the nasolabial folds.
What to Expect During Treatment
Dermal filler injections are non-surgical and typically completed during a clinic visit. Your initial treatment will begin with a consultation, during which you will meet with Dr. Neha to discuss your concerns and goals.
Pre-treatment consultation
During your consultation, we will evaluate your area of concern and review your medical history. While the risks associated with dermal fillers are minimal, you need to fully disclose your medical history prior to treatment, as certain allergies, skin and neurological conditions, or medications can jeopardize your safety or results. For instance, you need to tell us if you have been taking NSAIDs (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen) or blood thinners as these increase the likelihood of bruising.

Your injectable filler treatment
Just before the actual treatment, the area will be cleaned, and you may be given a topical anaesthetic to numb the area prior to injection. Many filler products also contain lidocaine, a mild anaesthetic, which is intended to help minimize discomfort during and after your treatment. We will then inject a precise amount of filler strategically beneath the skin.
Depending on the product and the areas treated, you should be able to notice results immediately after receiving filler injections. Some patients experience mild bruising and swelling, but these are temporary and should subside over the days following treatment. You will be able to go back to your normal activities right after treatment, but we may ask you to take the day off from exercise or other strenuous activity.

Thread Lift Aka 4D Lift
Thread Lift is a kind of facial rejuvenation, advanced and innovative, that is developed to elevate the sagging skin (mostly facial). In this procedure, delicate thread filaments are used. This method works perfectly to reduce and eliminate the scars on the skin. Moreover, with time, the dermal thread lift has gone non-surgical, implying that there will not be any discomfort during the procedure.
Key benefits of Thread Lift:
- Slimming down the face.
- Nasolabial folds
- Sagging of the cheek-malar area
- Asymmetry of the face
- Signs of aging in the
- neck and decollete
- Double chin
The major benefit of the dermal thread lift is, as the name says, the tightening of the skin. It effectively works on the loose and sagging skin and tightens it. Moreover, it can also improve the wrinkles on the skin. The skin that sags, for example, around your eyes and on the cheeks, can be properly lifted with the help of a thread lift. Furthermore, the procedure does not require more of your time! You can get it completed in half an hour.
Well-placed threads can create subtle, natural-looking results and a more youthful appearance—especially in the midface, lower face, under the chin, and along the jawline.
Types of Threads used:
- PDO stands for polydioxanone, a dissolvable material that’s commonly used in surgical sutures. You may also see the occasional threading procedure marketed as a “sugar lift,” since PDO threads are made from long chains of polysaccharide (aka sugar)
- Some threads also have tiny barbs or cones that help them attach to the tissue, so it can be lifted or pulled. “When explaining to patients how threads work, I like to use the term ‘micro-extensions,’ which sounds more acceptable than ‘barbs,’” says Dr. Neha
As facial threads are absorbed over the course of about 3-12 months depending on the type of thread used, they stimulate a natural healing response that boosts natural collagen production and gradually firms the tissue
Threads for acne scars
PDO threads, composed of a biocompatible material, are strategically inserted beneath the skin to lift and tighten, promoting collagen synthesis. Over time, the threads dissolve, leaving behind a collagen network for improved skin texture.
The treatment is typically performed in-office and involves numbing the skin before inserting the threads using a fine needle. The process is relatively quick, depending on the area being treated.
PDO threads provide immediate support by physically lifting depressed or pitted scars, thereby improving the skin’s appearance temporarily.
The true magic happens as these threads gradually dissolve over several months. During this time, they trigger the body’s natural wound-healing response, stimulating collagen production. The new collagen helps to fill in scars, smoothening the skin and improving texture.

A thread lift procedure can be beneficial for both men and women who are wanting to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and early jowls on the face. This procedure can also reduce the appearance of sagging skin, as it gently pulls the skin tighter.
It also offers immediate results without the downtime or scarring that occurs with a surgical facelift procedure. If you desire natural-looking results for firmer skin, then a thread lift may be the right procedure for you. During a consultation, Dr. Neha will evaluate your anatomy and review your goals to decide if you are a candidate for a thread lift.
Results from a thread lift are temporary, lasting from three months to one year. Over time, the threads dissolve, and your body absorbs them.
During a thread lift procedure, you receive local anaesthesia, so you don’t feel any pain. After the procedure, you may experience some pain, discomfort and soreness. You can take an over-the-counter or prescription pain reliever for several days until the discomfort goes away.
You can go home right after a thread lift procedure. You may experience some bruising and swelling around the area. We will give you instructions on how to care of the treated area.
Profhilo – Biostumulatory Injections
Profhilo is a biostimulatory injection composed of pure hyaluronic acid which enhances and remodels collagen and elastin which further improves skins quality and hydration.
It is a unique injectable hyaluronic acid treatment, designed to boost skin hydration, support, tautness and elasticity. This clear, aqueous substance is a mix of high and low molecular weight, pure hyaluronic acid (HA) without the cross-linking chemicals found in hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers.
When injected into the face, neck, décolletage, inner arms, thighs, or the backs of the hands, it spreads evenly throughout the skin. Unlike most hyaluronic acid injectables, Profhilo isn’t a dermal filler treatment per se, or even a simple “skin booster”; it’s a type of injectable described as a “bio remodeling” agent, according to Dr. Neha
Profhilo works by stimulating collagen and elastin production by fibroblasts in the dermis and keratinocytes in the epidermis, as well as by preserving the health and vitality of the fat cells in the subcutaneous tissue. The result is greater skin support, diminished laxity and improved suppleness that translates into plumper, more dewy, more youthful skin.
Although this treatment won’t change face shape or erase deep wrinkles, the benefits of Profhilo injections include a subtle improvement in overall skin quality and fewer fine lines, for smoother, brighter skin

Profhilo works by spreading water-binding hyaluronic acid below the surface of the skin like an “injectable moisturizer,” as Dr. Neha calls it.
Our bodies naturally produce hyaluronic acid, which can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, but we gradually lose it with age. Similarly, collagen and elastin, the protein fibers that provide structure and elasticity to the skin, break down and their production slows over time.
Like other injectables, Profhilo is a relatively easy treatment that takes only about 15 minutes.
Profhilo is administered in a standard pattern of five injection points on each side of the face: in front of the ears, in the nasolabial folds, in the chin, under the eyes, and at the tops of the cheeks. Likewise, there are standard injection points for the neck, upper arms and other areas of the body.
To maximize its cell-regeneration benefits, doctors recommend two treatments of Profhilo, with a month between the first and second treatments to align with the rate of skin cell turnover.
Some patients opt for a third treatment, another three to six months later.
Profhilo hydrates skin and creates a healthy glow almost immediately.
The full effects of new collagen and elastin develop about four to six weeks after the first treatment.
Profhilo is said to last in the skin for only about 28 days—far less time than traditional HA fillers.
However, you may see increased hydration for about three months and a subtle improvement in firmness due to new collagen and elastin for up to six months after your initial treatment series.
SALMON DNA BOOSTERS - PDRN
Salmon DNA therapy is a very popular skin rejuvenation methods. Pure hyaluronic acid and polynucleotides obtained from salmon fish sperm are used for cell renewal in the skin. Polydeoxyribonucleotides, or PDRNs are molecules derived from salmon DNA which stimulates cellular receptors and cause maturation of fibroblasts (Collagen producing cells).
- Liquid lifting
PDRNs work by stimulating rejuvenation processes and toning tissues. - Filler effect
Hyaluronic acid reduces the appearance of skin blemishes such as wrinkles and skin depressions. - Antioxidant
Glutathione defends the skin from free radicals’ attack and restores the correct amount of acetyl cysteine for proper cellular defence.
Benefits:
• Skin lifting effect
• Undereye rejuvenation and reduction of crows feet
• Biorestructuring of the deep dermis
• Moisturizing action
• Improve the look of small depressed scars and of periocular wrinkles
