Facial Contouring with Fillers

Dermal fillers restore volume to our face to treat age-related sagging and wrinkles due to skin laxity and facial volume loss. Dermal fillers are suitable treatments to sculpt the face, giving the face more definition and enhancing existing facial features.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a molecule that occurs naturally in the skin. It binds to water to make skin appear plumper, dewier, and more hydrated. JUVÉDERM® is a long-lasting, non-surgical option that contains a modified form of HA. Fillers that include HA are a popular choice for patients, with over 90% of filler patients receiving a HA dermal filler.

Why Is Technique Important?

Every facial structure and ageing pattern is different so an experienced practitioner is required to make a personalised plan for each person’s needs. Their training in various injection techniques and keen eye to recognise adverse reactions allow them to respond immediately for the safety of every patient. Here at VIDASKIN, we are proud to assure you that we are an accredited Medical Aesthetic Clinic that has recently received another AMI (Allergan Medical Institute) award for being one of the top users in Singapore. On top of that, Dr. Vicki has been inducted as a faculty member and trainer for AMI. She is currently the ONLY female trainer of her generation in the country.

Where Can Fillers Be Used?

You can choose to use it for anti-ageing effects or simply to sculpt and reshape your face for better facial harmony. These are a few key areas where you can use fillers to instantly get a more refreshed look.

Why Are Lip Fillers So Popular?

JUVÉDERM® lip fillers add or restore volume, structure and shape to thin lips. Whether you are born with thin lips or experienced thinning with age, lip fillers are the most affordable and safest non-surgical procedure to enhance lips. Fuller lips can make a person look and feel younger and restore confidence amidst insecurities. While makeup tips can provide short-term results, lip fillers are a more long-term solution to wake up with fuller lips without a time-consuming makeup routine. JUVÉDERM® lip fillers provide a natural look because they are made of hyaluronic acid, a substance that is naturally produced by the body. HA fillers are less likely to cause bruising and will be naturally absorbed into the body.

How Do I Know Which Filler To Go For?

For the most natural results, you may require more than one type of filler. A trained doctor will assess your skin and needs to explain the ideal treatment plan with various concentrations of active ingredients. JUVÉDERM® is the #1 chosen dermal filler collection in the US* that offers 5 different and long-lasting fillers. Each one adds volume and is designed for different areas of the face including lips, cheeks, or chin depending on your unique needs. At VIDASKIN, we offer a range of fillers to help you reach your beauty goals.

Perfect Pairing Of MD Codes™ & Juvéderm®

MD Codes™ are a series of strategic, formulated injection points, which allow for a subtle and natural-looking result. The MD Codes™ technique was developed by Dr Mauricio de Maio, a world-renowned Brazilian plastic surgeon and injector.

When presented with the MD Codes™, patients can identify their problematic areas, discuss their treatment and what can be achieved. At VIDASKIN, our doctors have adopted the MD Codes to help patients achieve outstanding and natural results. Dr Vicki is the first and only doctor from Singapore who has ever been handpicked by Dr. Mauricio de Maio himself for a 2-year mentorship program, where only the best physicians from around the world are selected.

When it comes to choosing the right dermal filler for your MD Codes™ procedure, there are many options available. The most suitable fillers must offer superior density and structure to lift sagging tissue and address volume loss. At VIDASKIN, we use JUVEDERM® Vycross® as the cross-linked HA molecules create structure within deeper underlying tissue and are long-lasting. Vycross® products are known for their exceptional performance and long-lasting results.

With MD Codes™ treatment, we address common ageing concerns such as skin laxity, volume loss, and lack of structure. As we age, these factors become more noticeable and can make us appear tired and withdrawn. With natural hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers, it can restore structure, lift connective tissue, and rejuvenate your facial features. These fillers, often used alongside Botox, can also help prevent muscle overuse that leads to the formation of lines and wrinkles.

In the past, dermal filler treatments focused solely on a specific problem area. However, recent clinical studies and research suggest that taking a holistic approach yields better results. By addressing the source of ageing rather than just masking the symptoms, we can provide more comprehensive and long-lasting benefits to our patients.

Some Of The Advantages Of The Allergan MD Codes™ Approach Include:

Greater customisation of Botox and Juvederm treatments
More natural-looking and effective results
It allows for a safer, superior, and more consistent treatment
Takes a more holistic approach to anti-ageing for optimal and longer-lasting outcomes

Frequently Asked Questions

What Should I Consider Before I Try Fillers?

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, dermal fillers are not recommended. Always speak to your practitioner about when is a safe time to have them.
If you are not satisfied with the fillers, you have the option to mitigate, soften, or remove any non-satisfactory results. Dermal fillers made from HA are reversible using an enzyme called hyaluronidase. This process involves an injection into the problem area, with effects within 48 hours.
To avoid unnatural-looking results, choose an experienced practitioner.

Are There Any Side Effects?

The most common side effects include temporary tenderness, swelling, firmness, lumps/bumps, bruising, pain, redness, discolouration, and itching around the treatment site. Side effects are usually mild and last a few hours to a few days.

Do not use these products if you

Have a history of multiple severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis)
Are allergic to lidocaine or the Gram-positive bacterial proteins
Have had previous allergic reactions to hyaluronic acid fillers
Are pregnant or breastfeeding

Is There Any Downtime With Fillers?

Downtime for fillers is minimal and you should be able to resume normal activities right after the treatment. However, some may experience mild swelling, typically subsiding in 1 to 3 days. It is advisable to avoid exercising and consuming alcohol for 24 hours after treatment to prevent increased blood flow which may affect any swelling.

How Often Do You Have To Get Your Fillers Done?

There is no fixed rule regarding the frequency of getting fillers done. On average, your dermal filler should last between 12-24 months, but this varies from patient to patient, depending on how quickly your immune system breaks the filler down. It is important to discuss with our doctor for personalised advice based on your needs.

Will The Volume Loss Worsen When The Fillers Wear Off?

Hyaluronic acid fillers are not permanent, and will therefore reabsorb into the body over time. Rest assured that there will not be a worsening of volume loss after filler reabsorption.
