Fillers, five years on: why less now means more later

The overfilled look is fading fast. Our medical director on structural placement, conservative volumes and planning a face for the long term.

Less filler, placed better

Good filler work is hard to spot. Rather than filling each line as it appears, we look at the deeper structure of the face (the cheekbones, temples and jawline) and restore support where it has been lost.

This approach usually needs less product, and results look like you on a well-rested day rather than a different person.

Planning over years, not appointments

Faces change gradually, so we plan gradually too. Many clients follow a two or three-year roadmap with small top-ups, rather than one large correction. It is kinder to your tissue and to your budget.

A note on dissolving

If you have had filler elsewhere that no longer feels right, we offer careful assessment and, where appropriate, dissolving before starting fresh.

A note from our clinicians

Journal articles are general information, not medical advice. We will always recommend treatment after meeting you in person.
