What Are Fillers?

Overview

Fillers (hyaluronic acid) are non-surgical treatments used to restore volume lost with age, soften lines and wrinkles and define facial contours. The most commonly used fillers are gels based on hyaluronic acid, a substance also found naturally in the skin. Because of their low risk and immediate results, they are among the most popular aesthetic treatments.

As we age, collagen and hyaluronic acid in the skin decrease and facial fat thins. The cheekbones flatten, the nasolabial folds deepen, the lips become thinner and hollows under the eyes become more visible. Fillers add a controlled amount of volume to these areas to restore the balance of the face.

Before treatment, Dr. Hakki Izmirli assesses your facial proportions and plans with you which areas to treat and how much filler to use. The aim is not an exaggerated look, but a natural result that is still you.

Treatment Areas

Which Areas Can Be Treated?

Lip Filler

Used to add volume to the lips, define the lip border and correct imbalance between the upper and lower lip. The aim is a fuller, more lively look while preserving the natural shape of the lips.

Cheekbones and Cheeks

Adding volume to cheekbones that flatten with age supports the midface. This gives a younger look and also helps soften the nasolabial folds.

Chin and Jawline

Used to bring a receding chin forward and sharpen the jawline, contributing significantly to profile balance.

Under-Eye Area

Hollows and a tired look under the eyes can be carefully corrected with fine fillers suited to this area. Because the under-eye area requires experience, your suitability is assessed at the consultation.

Nasolabial Folds

Deep lines running from the side of the nose to the corners of the mouth are softened for a more rested expression.

Which areas are treated, and how much filler is used, is decided together during the consultation.

Plan Your Appointment

How Is It Done?

Comfortable, Safe Treatment with a Cannula

For filler treatments we use a fine, blunt-tipped cannula. Compared with a sharp needle, a cannula moves more gently through the tissues, making the treatment more comfortable, reducing bruising and swelling and lowering the risk of injury to blood vessels.

The treatment is completed quickly at our practice. A numbing cream is applied first, and most fillers also contain a local anaesthetic. 15 days before treatment, after consulting your doctor, it is recommended to pause blood-thinning medicines and supplements such as aspirin, ibuprofen and vitamin E.

You can return to daily life right after the treatment. For the first 24 hours, avoid intense exercise, sauna, hammam and alcohol, and do not massage the treated area. Mild swelling or redness usually disappears within a few days.

Frequently Asked
Questions

How Long Do Fillers Last?

It depends on the product, the treated area and your metabolism. Hyaluronic acid fillers usually last 6–12 months; in areas such as the cheeks and chin they can last longer.

Is the Treatment Painful?

Most patients describe only slight pressure or a stinging sensation. A numbing cream is applied beforehand, most fillers contain a local anaesthetic, and the cannula technique adds to your comfort.

When Will I See Results?

The result is visible immediately after treatment. Swelling settles within a few days; the final result usually shows within 1–2 weeks.

Are There Side Effects?

Mild swelling, redness or small bruises may appear at the injection site and usually fade quickly. Rarely, serious complications such as vascular occlusion can occur, which is why the treatment should be performed by an experienced doctor with a thorough knowledge of facial anatomy. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with a special enzyme if needed.

What Should I Pay Attention to After Treatment?

For the first 24 hours avoid intense exercise, sauna, hammam and alcohol, and do not massage the treated area. Mild swelling in the first days after lip filler is normal.
