Treatments
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments used to restore lost volume, smooth out wrinkles, and enhance facial contours.
Dermal fillers can be used in various areas of the face to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance contours. Common areas include the temples (to lift and rejuvenate), tear trough (to reduce under-eye hollows), mid-face (to restore cheek volume and lift), lips (for definition and fullness), and the lower face (to soften lines, enhance the jawline, and improve chin projection).
These treatments offer a natural, refreshed appearance by addressing signs of aging and enhancing facial harmony.

Testimonials
Whether you’re new to the world of aesthetics or you've had some experience and you want to take a different approach, Dr Yiannis’s questionnaire helps you discover what options are available and learn what could be right for you.
Dermal fillers and anti wrinkle injections serve different purposes. Fillers add volume and smooth out wrinkles by filling in lines and areas of volume loss. In contrast, anti wrinkle injections relax the muscles to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles caused by facial expressions. Both can be used together for a comprehensive anti-aging approach.
Common side effects include mild redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection site. These typically resolve within a few days. Rare but more serious side effects can include lumps, asymmetry or infection.
To minimize the risk of bruising, avoid taking blood-thinning medications like aspirin and ibuprofen for at least a week before treatment. It’s also advisable to avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior to your appointment.
Yes, hyaluronic acid-based fillers can be dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase, which can reverse the effects if you’re not happy with the outcome.
