Overfilled faces. Puffy cheeks. Expressionless foreheads. If these images come to mind when you think of dermal fillers, you’re not alone. In 2025, clients are more informed and more cautious than ever. Natural-looking, subtle results have become the gold standard in aesthetics. And yet, the fear of looking “fake” still stops many from exploring injectable treatments that could genuinely benefit their appearance and confidence.
Overfilled results don’t come from the product itself, but from how it’s used. Here are the main reasons it happens:
Overcorrection: Injecting too much product in a single session to try and achieve dramatic change instantly.
Poor placement: Filler in the wrong area (or at the wrong depth) can distort proportions.
Lack of anatomical expertise: Aesthetic treatments should work with your bone structure, fat pads, and muscle movement—not against them.
Chasing symmetry or volume: No face is perfectly symmetrical. Trying to force it can create an unnatural look.
Repeat treatments without re-evaluation: Adding more filler without assessing previous results can lead to build-up or heaviness.
Our medical-led, holistic approach ensures you get safe, natural-looking results. We follow a strict protocol that includes:
Your journey begins with an in-depth consultation, led by an experienced medical professional. This includes:
Medical history review
Skin and facial assessment
Digital imaging (where appropriate)
Lifestyle and aesthetic goals discussion
Education about product choices
Treatment planning
Cooling-off period (where needed)
We favour progressive results over instant transformation. Our medical professionals are trained to use the minimum effective dose to achieve visible, yet undetectable enhancement.
We assess your facial balance and proportions, not isolated lines or areas. This ensures everything we do works harmoniously with your natural anatomy.
We never ‘top up’ fillers blindly. We re-assess your face at every review and only recommend further treatment if it enhances your outcome.
Not all volume or texture loss needs traditional filler. In many cases, regenerative treatments such as PRP, exosomes or polynucleotides can be safer, more natural alternatives with long-term benefit.
If you’re concerned about looking ‘done’, regenerative treatments may be ideal. These options stimulate your skin to repair and renew itself, rather than simply adding volume.
Uses your own blood platelets to stimulate collagen and elastin
Improves skin tone, elasticity and fine lines
Ideal for under-eyes, neck, face and even hair restoration
Biostimulating treatment that hydrates and rejuvenates tissue
Encourages skin repair, improves firmness and skin quality
Gentle enough for sensitive or thin skin areas
Next-generation cell messengers that promote repair and regeneration
Powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-ageing benefits
Enhances microneedling, especially for acne scarring and texture issues
Natural volumiser created from your own blood plasma
Restores lost volume without synthetic filler material
Especially effective in under-eye and mid-face areas
Each of these treatments can be used alone or combined with skin therapies like Dermapen 4™ Microneedling or Carboxytherapy for a holistic, regenerative approach.
