Dermal fillers are non-surgical, injectable treatments that use specialised formulas to restore lost volume, enhance contours, and reduce the appearance of lines. By targeting specific areas of the face, these fillers help create smoother, more youthful-looking skin and naturally improve your features.
Many clients see significant improvements after just one treatment. During your consultation, we’ll create a personalised treatment plan to ensure you achieve the best possible results.

Consultation and Assessment
Begin with a thorough consultation with the patient. Discuss their goals, medical history, allergies, and any medications they are taking. Examine the treatment area to assess the skin’s condition, volume loss, and any specific concerns the client may have. Ensure the patient understands the procedure and potential risks.
Step 2
Informed Consent
Obtain informed consent from the client, ensuring they understand the procedure, potential side effects, and the expected outcomes. Address any questions or concerns they may have and have them sign a consent form.
Step 3
Preparing the Client
Prepare the client for the procedure by cleansing the treatment area with a suitable antiseptic solution. Apply a topical numbing cream if necessary to minimise discomfort during the injection and mark the injection points with a pencil.
Injection Technique
With the client comfortably positioned, use a 25g needle, administer the dermal filler. Ensure you use proper aseptic techniques to prevent infection. Inject the filler in the subcutaneous layer with a 60% angle to achieve the precise product placement.
Step 5
Massaging and Shaping
After injecting the filler, wipe any blood with a chilled sterile gauze and when the bleeding has stopped, gently massage and evenly distribute the filler, to make it look natural. Pay close attention to any lumps or irregularities, and smooth them out.
Step 6
Post-Treatment Care and Follow-Up
Provide post-treatment instructions to the client, such as avoiding excessive touching of the treated area and applying ice to reduce swelling.

Revolax is more cross linked, thicker, and needs more blending, however it lasts much longer than Juvederm.
