What it is

Dermal fillers are injectable gels — usually hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally in skin — placed beneath the surface to restore or refine volume and contour in areas such as the cheeks, lips and jawline.

Dermal fillers gently restore lost volume, smooth fine lines and redefine facial contours, enhancing your natural beauty rather than altering it. They use premium-quality hyaluronic acid — a compound naturally present in your skin — so the gel integrates seamlessly into your tissues for a subtle result that keeps your expression your own.

Treatment is administered using fine microinjection techniques, with each session tailored to your facial anatomy and the outcome you're after. Common areas include the cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds, jawline and chin, as well as under-eye hollows and the hands. The filler, the volume placed and the depth of injection are all chosen for the area and your features, rather than applied to a fixed formula.

At Shookra, fillers are carried out under doctor-led clinical protocols. Your clinician assesses your face, discusses what's realistic for the area, and works toward a refined result that complements your features. Many people see an immediate improvement, with the skin looking plumper and more hydrated.

Who it's for

Dermal fillers can help with volume loss in the cheeks, nasolabial folds and marionette lines, under-eye hollows, and areas you'd like to define or enhance — lips, jawline, chin and the back of the hands. They suit people looking to restore softness that's been lost over time, or to refine a feature subtly rather than dramatically.

Because the filler and the amount placed are adjustable, treatment can be kept conservative or built up gradually across sessions. Your clinician confirms suitability and the right plan at consultation, and will review your goals, medical history and any medications first.

  • Volume loss in the cheeks
  • Nasolabial folds and marionette lines
  • Under-eye hollows
  • Lip enhancement and definition
  • Jawline and chin contouring
  • Loss of facial freshness and glow

Who it’s not for

A few situations mean it’s better to wait, or to choose a different treatment:

  • An active skin infection, inflammation or broken skin at the injection site
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding
  • Known hypersensitivity to hyaluronic acid or filler components
  • A bleeding disorder or use of blood-thinning medication

This isn’t exhaustive, and none of it rules you out on its own — your clinician confirms suitability at consultation.

What to expect

  1. 01

    Consult & plan

    Your face is assessed, your goals discussed and the treatment areas agreed. Your clinician explains what's realistic, then maps a plan tailored to your facial anatomy.

  2. 02

    Treat & refine

    The filler is placed using fine microinjection techniques, area by area. You may feel brief pinching or pressure — your clinician works gradually and checks balance as they go to keep the result natural.

  3. 03

    Review & aftercare

    You'll see an immediate change once treatment is complete. Mild swelling or small bruises can settle over the following days, and you'll receive aftercare guidance plus a review to confirm you're happy with the result.

Physician note

On Dermal Fillers

The aim with fillers is balance, not volume for its own sake. I prefer to treat conservatively and build over a couple of sessions where needed, assessing the face as a whole rather than one feature in isolation. Hyaluronic acid is also reversible, which gives us a useful safety margin — so we can adjust if your features change or your preference does. Good placement and restraint are what keep a result looking like you.

Questions

01Is the treatment safe?
We use clinically tested fillers administered by experienced, DHA-licensed clinicians to keep treatment as safe as possible. Your clinician reviews your history and goals beforehand and tailors the approach to you.
02How long do results last?
Results typically last between 6 and 18 months, varying with the filler used and your individual metabolism. Your clinician will give you a realistic timeframe for the area being treated and advise when a top-up may be due.
03Will I look overdone?
The focus is on subtle, refined enhancements tailored to complement your natural features, not to change them. Treating gradually and reviewing the result helps keep the outcome looking like you.
04Is there downtime?
Most people resume daily activities soon after treatment. Mild swelling, tenderness or small bruises can occur and usually settle within a few days. Your clinician gives you full aftercare guidance at your appointment.
05Can dermal fillers be reversed?
Hyaluronic acid fillers can usually be dissolved with an enzyme if needed, which is one reason they're widely used. Your clinician will explain how this applies to your treatment and the area being addressed.
06What do Dermal Fillers cost at Shookra?
Pricing depends on the filler, the area and how many sessions your plan needs. Message us on WhatsApp and the team will share current pricing and help you book.
