As we age, the facial fat pads that give the face its youthful fullness gradually diminish. Cheeks flatten, the under-eye hollows deepen, lips thin, and folds deepen around the nose and mouth. Dermal fillers address this directly — replenishing lost volume and restoring the facial proportions of a younger face.
The gel used in modern dermal fillers is hyaluronic acid (HA) — a sugar molecule that occurs naturally in the body's own connective tissues. When injected, it integrates naturally with surrounding tissue, attracting water to maintain volume and hydration. The result is immediate, with the final shape settling over 2–4 weeks.
At Prof. Hindocha's practice, filler placement is guided by a thorough understanding of facial anatomy and the principles of facial proportion. The aim is always a balanced, natural result — not an overfilled appearance, but a subtly refreshed one.
