Put the ‘spring’ back in to your skin with dermal fillers – Mirabel Clinic – Swindon
Dermal fillers in Swindon: As winter starts to dissipate, and the sun begins to creep in, we might be looking in the mirror and noticing the effects that the colder months have on our skin. The natural ageing process, as well as environmental stresses such as central heating and bitter winds, can mean that deeper lines and wrinkles, volume loss and a general dehydration can start to be experienced.
At Mirabel Clinic in Swindon, we understand the effects that winter can have on our skin, as well as the natural aging process. Using temporary dermal fillers, containing hyaluronic acid, we can fill lines, correct volume loss, sculpt the facial structures, and even re-hydrate the skin, all in time for Spring!
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable substances which sit innately underneath the skin’s tissues. They are gel-like in consistency and contain hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally-occurring sugar within the body. HA can deplete rapidly as we get older, alongside substances such as collagen and elastin and this can have a devastating effect on the skin’s quality, resilience and elasticity.
When we use HA dermal fillers, they not only re-structure the skin mechanically, but increase hydration over time, so the skin can look plumper, more youthful and hydrated once more.
Who can administer dermal fillers?
The aesthetic industry is unregulated when it comes to treatments using dermal fillers. Therefore, non-medical practitioners are, essentially able to administer these products. Using a medical professional such as our practitioners here at Mirabel Clinic in Swindon means that you are receiving a safe and professional treatment, using the highest-grade, clinically-proven products for your wellbeing and optimum results.
It’s becoming more common that many medics are having to correct mistakes made by non-medical practitioners, when it comes to injectable dermal fillers. Like all injectable treatments, there is always an element of risk. Wouldn’t you prefer to enlist someone who has been suitably trained to deal with any unforeseen circumstances or side-effects, should they arise? You can also be confident that these risks are significantly reduced, when a medically-qualified, fully-trained practitioner delivers your dermal filler treatment.
Which facial concerns can dermal fillers treat?

Am I suitable for dermal fillers?
Most people who are experiencing facial ageing such as deep-set wrinkles, loss of volume or skin dehydration may benefit from a treatment using injectable dermal fillers. However, it’s important to attend a no obligation, initial consultation, before going ahead with any dermal filler treatment.
When you attend a free pre-treatment meeting with one of our practitioners, here at Mirabel Clinic, you will be able to discuss everything that is concerning you about your looks, what you expect in terms of results and how dermal fillers may improve certain aspects of your facial features.
We will also check your medical history, to ensure that there are no contraindications, which may prevent or restrict your dermal filler treatment from going ahead. This is vital for your safety as well as your wellbeing. We will also discuss with you the treatment itself and potential results longevity for your specific treatment indication.
What happens during a dermal filler treatment?
When you arrive for your dermal filler treatment in Swindon, we will ask that you fill in some standard consent forms.
Once these are completed, you will be able to relax on one of our treatment couches. We will cleanse your skin, and depending on treatment area, a topical anaesthetic ointment may be applied. This usually takes around 30 minutes to take effect.
After which, your Mirabel practitioner will inject a specific amount of a specially chosen dermal filler for the indication being treated, using a needle or a cannula. After which, your practitioner may mould or shape the dermal filler, gently with their fingers. This ensures that the product integrates well with the skin tissues and a natural-looking soft result is achieved.
After the treatment, you may well see results straight away, as dermal fillers sit within the skin tissues. However, it’s important to consider that you might experience some swelling and light bruising, following your dermal filler treatment. We always advise our patients to allow 2 weeks for the full results to be seen and for the dermal filler to integrate fully, with the skin’s tissues.
The results of your chosen dermal filler treatment can last anything from 3 to 12 months, depending on the indication. However, the longevity of your results can be increased or decreased, with certain lifestyle choices. Smoking, sitting in the sun for long periods, excessive exercise and undergoing certain other aesthetic treatments can reduce the longevity of your results. If you eat well, drink plenty of water, avoid damaging habits such as smoking and excessive sun exposure, you may well enjoy your results for longer.
