What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are gel-like injectable treatments placed beneath the skin’s surface to rejuvenate the skin, restore volume, smooth fine lines, and enhance facial contours. Composed of hyaluronic acid – a naturally occurring substance in the body – our dermal fillers replenish lost volume and revitalise the skin’s appearance, delivering natural-looking, long-lasting results with minimal downtime.
At Elle Medical Aesthetics, we focus on subtle enhancements that complement your features and align with our commitment to personalised care – never overdone, always confident. We use premium-quality products only, notably Vivacy Stylage and Teoxane, chosen for their safety and longer-lasting results. Areas that can be treated in clinic include the cheeks, jawline, chin, nose-to-mouth lines, mouth-to-chin lines, tear trough and peri-oral area (smokers’ lines), to create balanced, natural results that enhance your appearance.
We welcome patients from Chorley, Leyland, Preston and surrounding Lancashire areas seeking safe, personalised dermal filler treatments.

The Dermal Filler Treatment Process
Consultation
Every dermal filler appointment begins with an in-depth consultation to understand your goals and facial anatomy. We’ll design a bespoke treatment plan tailored to you.
Treatment
Using precision and gentle technique, our clinician administers the filler to achieve balanced, natural-looking results. Comfort and safety are prioritised at every step.
Results & Aftercare
Results are visible immediately and continue to improve as the filler settles. We provide detailed aftercare guidance to maintain your results for months to come.
Some patients may also consider filler dissolving treatment before new filler placement if they are correcting previous filler work.

Frequently Asked Questions
The longevity of dermal fillers depends on the treatment area, the type of filler used and individual lifestyle factors. In many cases, dermal fillers can last anywhere from 6–18 months. Areas with more movement, such as the lips, may break down filler more quickly than areas such as the cheeks or jawline.
Most patients find dermal filler treatment very manageable. A numbing cream may be applied before treatment, and many premium fillers also contain local anaesthetic to improve comfort throughout the procedure. You may experience mild pressure or pinching during injections, depending on the treatment area.
Some swelling, redness or mild bruising can occur following dermal filler treatment and is completely normal. Swelling is often more noticeable in areas such as the lips and usually settles within a few days. Aftercare guidance will be provided to help support healing and minimise downtime.
Most modern dermal fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance that naturally occurs within the body and helps maintain hydration and volume within the skin. Hyaluronic acid fillers are commonly used to restore volume, enhance contours and soften lines while maintaining natural-looking results.
Yes – at Elle Medical Aesthetics, our approach focuses on subtle enhancement and facial harmony rather than exaggerated or overfilled results. Treatments are carefully tailored to complement your natural facial features and achieve balanced, refreshed outcomes. Patients seeking more subtle enhancement often combine treatment with anti-wrinkle treatments for balanced facial rejuvenation.
Yes. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers can usually be dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase. This is commonly used to correct filler migration, asymmetry, overfilling or unwanted previous results. You can learn more on our filler dissolving treatments.
Results are visible immediately after treatment, although mild swelling can temporarily affect the final appearance. Once any swelling settles, results typically continue to improve over the following days.
Dermal fillers can be used to treat several areas of the face, including the lips, cheeks, chin, jawline, tear troughs and nasolabial folds. Treatments are tailored depending on your facial structure, concerns and desired outcome.
Some patients achieve their desired result in a single appointment, while others may benefit from a gradual treatment approach over multiple sessions. During your consultation, a personalised treatment plan will be discussed based on your goals and facial anatomy.
When carried out by a qualified and experienced practitioner, dermal fillers are considered a safe and widely used aesthetic treatment. At Elle Medical Aesthetics, patient safety, careful assessment and natural-looking results are prioritised throughout every stage of treatment.
