How Safe is Dermal Filler?

How Safe is Dermal Filler?

Dermal fillers have become increasingly popular for their ability to enhance facial features and reduce the signs of aging without invasive surgery. However, the question of how safe is dermal filler often arises, and it’s crucial to address this concern.

Safety from Experienced Dermal Filler Practitioner

First and foremost, when administered by a qualified and experienced aesthetics professional, dermal fillers are generally considered safe. These professionals understand facial anatomy, injection techniques, and product selection, minimizing the risk of complications.

ALLERGIES TO DERMAL FILLER

The primary component of most dermal fillers is hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body, which helps retain moisture and add volume to the skin. As a result, allergic reactions are rare, making hyaluronic acid fillers well-tolerated by most individuals.

RISKS OF DERMAL FILLER

Nevertheless, many aesthetics procedures carry some level of risk. Potential side effects of dermal fillers may include bruising, swelling, redness, or lumps at the injection site. These effects are usually temporary and subside within a few days.

To ensure your safety, it is vital to choose a reputable, experienced practitioner, who follows proper sterilization and hygiene protocols. Avoid seeking dermal filler treatments at non-medical settings or from unqualified practitioners.

Before getting dermal fillers, discuss your medical history and any allergies you may have with your practitioner. This information will help them determine the most suitable filler for your needs and minimize the risk of adverse reactions.

In conclusion, while dermal fillers are generally safe, the key to a positive experience lies in seeking treatment from a qualified professional and having open communication about your concerns and expectations. By doing so, you can confidently enjoy the benefits of dermal fillers while prioritizing your safety and well-being.

Brilliant service, Julie makes you feel relaxed and goes through her in depth questions to make sure you receive the correct treatment for what you want to achieve, I had the Non invasive skin tight lift, it felt very odd to begin with, but after, my skin felt glowing, I'm looking forward to my next session.

Julie is truly wonderful as a person and in her profession. She is responsible, educated and very passionate about what she does. She advises and gives honest feedback. When considering treatments, you need all of the above and having used other specialists in cities in the past, I can honestly say that in my experience, Julie is more skilled and knowledgeable.

Had my follow up today 2 weeks after my face filler treatment. I'm very happy with the results. Julie explained everything beforehand and there was no pressure at all. Will definitely be returning in 9 months for a top up.

I missed my b12 jabs for approx 5 months and wanted to start again as soon as possible and of course Julie was very accommodating fixing us an apt asap. Back in the routine now and feeling fab again. This course has improved my gut, energy levels, mood and sleep… it’s worth every penny!

Being a man having passed retirement age & who had never before set foot in a skincare clinic, I approached my consultation with slight trepidation. How wrong I was. From the outset Julie made me feel relaxed and welcome and any concerns I had soon disappeared. Julie, in a professional and friendly manner talked me through the process and very soon I knew I had made the right decision in attending Aesthetics Julie Edwards. The clinic/treatment room is bright, modern & spacious which added to my feeling of reassurance. Having now completed a course of treatment I would not hesitate in recommending Julie’s services to anyone considering aesthetical advice/treatment.

Found Julie and Dorota to be professional and thoughtful practitioners. They are knowledgable and therefore reassuring. Also keen to ensure a great experience. I am very pleased with my treatments and would recommend this practice wholeheartedly. My husband had a mole removal and this also was brilliant.

It was myself not Paul who had the treatment with Julie. Having never had any previous treatments I was excited but also a little nervous, however, Julie made me feel at ease.. She took a medical history and explained the benefits and risks allowing me to make a fully informed descision. I am delighted with the results which look very natural and have been a great boost to my confidence. I would certainly have further treatments in the future.

Cannot recommend Julie highly enough and have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone. My procedure was fully explained with no rush and I was given very realistic expectations. I was nervous at first when I went for my consultation but was made to feel very welcome and not put under any pressure at all regarding going ahead with treatments. Julie is a friendly and professional person who makes you feel at ease during treatments with her knowledge and approachable warm nature – I’m so glad I didn’t go anywhere else! Thank you 😊

Would thoroughly recommend Julie Edwards for any treatments. I had several skin tags removed. Julie explained the procedure thoroughly from initial consultation, treatment and the after care. She followed up by email with details on the after care and a follow upappointment. Nothing was too much trouble. Julie was recommended to me by a friend and I am so pleased I chose to have my treatment with her.

I went to Aesthetics Julie Edwards recently to discuss treatment options for my particular facial concerns. My initial consultation took around 30 mins during which time she advised me of the best treatment for me, the pros and cons, realistic expectations, exactly how the procedure is carried out and after care required to obtain the best results. Also medical history was taken. All I all I felt in safe hands and was very impressed with both her knowledge on the subject and standard of hygiene in the salon.I went ahead with the procedure a week later. Again everything was explained to me and she ensured I felt totally at ease. Before and after photos were taken and I am very happy with the results. I was provided with after care instructions which I feel is very important in order to get the optimal results.I am very glad I went to Aesthetics Julie Edwards. l have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone wishing to undertake a facial procedure.
