Dermal fillers have become one of the most popular treatments in aesthetic medicine due to their ability to rejuvenate the face and enhance facial harmony in a safe and effective way. At the Mandíbula de Diamante Aesthetic Medicine Clinic, with locations in Barcelona and Madrid, we offer personalized dermal filler treatments to enhance the natural beauty of each patient.

What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable substances used to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and improve facial structure without the need for surgery. Depending on their composition, they can be classified into:

  • Temporary: Made from hyaluronic acid, which hydrates and adds volume with reversible effects.
  • Semi-permanent: Such as calcium hydroxyapatite, which stimulates collagen production and provides more lasting results.
  • Permanent: Less commonly used due to their rigidity and the potential for long-term complications.

What are dermal fillers used for?

Facial fillers have multiple applications in both facial rejuvenation and aesthetic harmony.

Facial rejuvenation

  • Reduction of wrinkles and expression lines, especially on the forehead, nasolabial folds, and barcode lines.
  • Restoration of volume in areas such as the cheeks, lips, and chin.
  • Deep hydration and improvement of skin quality.

Facial harmonization

  • Jawline shaping to achieve a more defined face.
  • Correction of asymmetries in the nose with non-surgical rhinoplasty.
  • Lip and cheek filler to enhance natural features.

Applications in body treatments.

  • Penis thickening and lengthening through hyaluronic acid injections.
  • Hand rejuvenation, improving texture and eliminating signs of aging.

Types of dermal fillers

Dermal fillers can be classified into different categories based on their composition and duration:

  1. Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers: These are the most popular due to their safety and natural effect. They are used to hydrate the skin, add volume to the lips, cheeks, and under-eye areas, and correct fine wrinkles.
  2. Calcium hydroxyapatite fillers: They stimulate collagen production and are ideal for improving skin firmness and redefining facial contours.
  3. Polycaprolactone fillers (Ellansé): They act as bio-stimulators, promoting long-term collagen production.
  4. Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) fillers: These are semi-permanent fillers used in specific cases to correct structural defects in the skin.

Benefits of dermal fillers

  • Minimally invasive procedure, without the need for surgery.
  • Immediate and natural results, tailored to each patient.
  • Quick recovery, allowing you to resume daily activities in a short time.
  • Duration of the effect, varying depending on the type of filler, with the possibility of periodic touch-ups.

Are dermal fillers safe?

FDA-approved dermal fillers ensure quality and safety for patients. Products such as Juvederm, Restylane, and Radiesse meet the highest medical standards, ensuring natural and long-lasting results.

What is the price of a dermal filler?

The price of a dermal filler varies depending on the type of product, the amount used, and the area being treated. In general, prices can range from €250 to €600 per session, depending on the clinic and the professional's experience.
