Volume & contour

Dermal Fillers

Restore volume, define contours and enhance your lips — with hyaluronic-acid artistry made for your anatomy.

Filler is anatomy, not volume. Alla builds structure first — jaw, chin, cheek — so the face reads balanced instead of full.

What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are smooth hyaluronic-acid gels that replace lost volume, sculpt facial contours and hydrate from within. Hyaluronic acid is a substance your body already makes, and results are reversible.

We treat the face as a whole — a touch of balance in the right places creates harmony, not obvious 'work.'

Pairs well with

Lip filler with a light perioral Botox dose keeps the border crisp for longer. Earlobes are the other thing worth asking about — they deflate and crease with age, and almost nobody thinks to treat them.

Benefits

  • Restores cheek and midface volume
  • Sharpens jawline and chin definition
  • Softens under-eye hollows and smile lines
  • Refills deflated, creased earlobes — the detail that quietly ages a face

What to expect

Start to finish, so there are no surprises on the day.

  1. 1
    Consultation

    We photograph and assess in motion. If filler isn't the right answer, you'll be told so — plenty of clients leave with a Botox plan instead.

  2. 2
    Numbing · 15 min

    Topical anaesthetic goes on, and every filler we use carries lidocaine inside it. Most people describe pressure, not pain.

  3. 3
    Treatment · 30–45 min

    Placed with a cannula wherever possible — fewer entry points, dramatically less bruising than needles alone.

  4. 4
    Days 1–14

    Mild swelling for 2–3 days, then it settles. The true result is what you see at two weeks, not day one.

Filler to the nasolabial fold

What would change this plan

Standard contraindications and precautions for this treatment — the questions you should expect from anyone offering it.

  • Are you pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding? Not while you're pregnant or nursing.
  • Have you ever had a severe allergic reaction — to a medication, an anaesthetic, or a previous injectable? Alla needs the details before anything is planned.
  • Do you take blood thinners, or daily aspirin? Not a barrier — a planning point.
  • Right now, do you have a cold sore, a skin infection, or an active breakout where you'd want treatment? Wait until the skin is clear.
  • Do you have an autoimmune condition, or take medication that suppresses your immune system? Usually workable, always discussed.
  • Have you had filler in this area before — anywhere, with anyone? Bring what you know.

Aftercare

The short list that protects your result. You'll get this in writing too.

  • Ice in short bursts for the first evening
  • Sleep slightly elevated for two nights
  • No dental work for two weeks
  • Arnica helps if you bruise easily — ask us

Myths, straightened out

What clients arrive believing — and what's actually true.

Filler migrates and ruins your lips.
Badly placed, overfilled product migrates. Correct plane, correct volume, correct product doesn't. This is entirely a technique question.
You need a full syringe every time.
Half a syringe, placed well, changes a profile. We routinely use less than clients expect.
It's permanent if I hate it.
Hyaluronic acid fillers are dissolvable with hyaluronidase. That safety net is a big reason we only use HA products.
The overlooked one

Earlobes give away age before the face does

Lobes thin and deflate the way the rest of the face does, and decades of earrings stretch them further. The fold that appears across the lobe, and a piercing that has slowly migrated downward, read as age even on someone whose face does not.

It is the single most overlooked area in aesthetics — almost nobody offers it, and almost nobody asks for it, because most people have never been told it can be treated at all.

  • A small amount of hyaluronic acid, placed into the lobe itself
  • The crease softens and the lobe holds its shape again
  • A stud sits level instead of tipping forward
  • Minutes, and no downtime worth planning around

How this is handled here

What people actually arrive saying, and the approach taken — not individual patient histories.

Dermal fillerfrom $550 / syringe

“I want a full syringe in my lips”

The concern

The request is almost always for volume. Often the actual problem is a border that has lost definition and an upper lip that has shortened — which volume alone does not fix, and can make worse.

The approach
  • Assessment at rest and in movement before any product is discussed
  • Half a syringe is the usual starting point, not a full one
  • Placed along the border and philtral columns rather than into the body of the lip
  • Cannula wherever the anatomy allows — fewer entry points, far less bruising
  • Reviewed at two weeks, when more can be added if it is genuinely wanted
Why

Most people who arrive asking for a full syringe leave having used half, and come back at two weeks having decided they do not want the rest.

Structure first, folds second

The concern

A deep nasolabial fold is usually a symptom. Filling the fold directly can weigh the cheek down further, because the volume was lost above it, not in it.

The approach
  • Support rebuilt in the mid-face first, where the volume actually went
  • Only a conservative amount placed into the fold itself, if any
  • Staged across visits so the result can be judged at two weeks before more is added
  • Photographed at each stage in the same position and light
Why

The fold softens because the cheek is supporting it again, rather than because it has been packed. It also uses less product than treating the fold directly.

General approach only. Individual results vary and every plan is decided at consultation.

Frequently asked

Will my lips look overdone?

Not with us. We build gradually and prioritize natural shape and balance over size.

Is it reversible?

Yes — hyaluronic-acid fillers can be dissolved if ever needed.

How much swelling should I expect?

Mild swelling or small bruising is possible for a few days, especially with lips.

How long does it last?

Depending on the area and product, typically 6–18 months.

Can earlobes be treated?

Yes, and they are one of the most overlooked areas on the face. Earlobes thin, crease and stretch with age — and with decades of earrings — which reads as age even when the rest of the face does not. A small amount of hyaluronic acid refills the lobe, softens the crease and lets a stud sit properly again. It takes minutes.

Priced per syringe and area — a clear plan is built at your consultation.
