Dermal fillers are the go to treatment when we want to replace volume loss in the face or to correct deep wrinkles and to support sagging facial structures.
With dermal fillers we can re-enhance the cheeks and lips, fill out sunken temples or tear troughs and lift the corners of the mouth. We can also plump up the hands, décolletage and earlobes. You can expect the treatment to last between 12 to 18 months depending on which product is used.
See Dr Alek Nikolic perform various dermal filler techniques in the videos below
Dr Alek Nikolic demonstrates the technique for cheek augmentation using Juvederm Voluma. A bolus technique is used to achieve maximum lift of underlying facial structures including the jowl and jaw line areas.

Dr Alek Nikolic demonstrates the technique for lip enhancement and vermillion border definition using a micro cannula. Micro cannulas are typically used to help prevent bruising and when treating lose to a vital vascular structure.
Dr Alek Nikolic demonstrates the technique for the pre jowl sulcas. This is the area between the jowl and the chin and as we age a loss of fat causes a visible depression. By filling this area we can give the appearance of a reduced jowl and a smoother and more streamlined jaw.
Dr Alek Nikolic demonstrates the technique for temple enhancement using the singe bolus technique. This is a safe, natural and effective technique to reduce the appearance of temple depression caused by fat loss and ageing.
Dr Alek Nikolic demonstrates the technique using the Juvederm range of fillers for the full face approach. The video includes narration of anatomical facial structures and describes each area that is to be treated. A side by side and treated versus untreated is shown at the end of the video to demonstrate the improvement and that natural results can be achieved. Areas treated include the cheek, temples, melomental fold, and pre jowl sulcus.
