What are dermal fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments made from hyaluronic acid — a substance that occurs naturally in the skin. As we age, the face loses volume, fat pads diminish and the skin loses its structural support, resulting in hollows, folds and a general loss of definition.

Precisely placed filler restores this lost volume, lifts sagging areas and redefines contours — producing results that look and feel completely natural because hyaluronic acid is fully biocompatible with the body.

At Vitalumina, Dr Gregorio De Carvalho uses only premium, CE-marked hyaluronic acid fillers from leading manufacturers. The choice of product, viscosity and injection technique is tailored specifically to each area of the face and each individual patient.

The difference between facial fillers and volume restoration

Not all filler treatments are the same. Some are designed for deep structural support — lifting cheeks or rebuilding the jawline (which pairs naturally with jaw slimming or collagen stimulation). Others are softer and more suited to superficial lines or lip enhancement. Understanding which product belongs where is the foundation of a natural result. This is where 12+ years of medical expertise makes all the difference.

Where several areas are addressed together to restore overall facial support, this is sometimes described as a liquid face lift, planned individually after assessment.

Areas Treated Where can dermal fillers be used? Facial fillers in London can address a wide range of concerns — from restoring lost volume to refining natural contours. Dr Gregorio treats each area as part of the face as a whole, never in isolation. 01 Cheeks & Mid-Face Restoring cheek volume is one of the most impactful filler treatments available. Lifted, defined cheekbones create natural rejuvenation across the entire face — without the tightened look of surgery. Results typically last 12–18 months. 02 Jawline & Chin Filler along the jawline creates definition, reduces jowling and improves the overall facial silhouette. Chin projection can also be subtly enhanced for improved facial balance and harmony. 03 Tear Troughs Under-eye hollows create persistent shadows that make you look tired regardless of how well-rested you are. Tear trough filler — one of the most technically demanding treatments — can dramatically refresh the eye area when placed correctly. 04 Nasolabial Folds The lines running from the nose to the corners of the mouth deepen with age. Soft filler placed carefully in this area softens the fold without creating an unnatural, filled look. 05 Temples Temple volume loss is one of the most overlooked contributors to facial ageing. Restoring the temples creates a more youthful, rounded facial frame and lifts the entire upper face. 06 Marionette Lines The lines running from the corners of the mouth downwards can give a downturned, sad expression. Filler placed in this area lifts the corners of the mouth and restores a naturally rested expression. 07 Lips Subtle lip enhancement, redefinition of the lip border and correction of asymmetry — all without the overfilled look. For full lip filler information, see our dedicated lip filler London page. 08 Nose (Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty) Small, precise amounts of filler can correct the appearance of bumps, asymmetry or drooping of the nasal tip — creating significant visual improvement without any surgery or downtime. 09 Hands Ageing hands can betray even the most youthful face. Filler in the back of the hands restores lost volume, reduces the visibility of tendons and veins, and creates a significantly more youthful appearance.

What to expect from your dermal filler treatment.

A clear, straightforward process from first conversation to lasting results.

01

Personalised Assessment

Dr Gregorio evaluates your face, skin quality, bone structure and concerns.

He will recommend a tailored treatment plan — or advise against treatment if it isn’t right for you. Honest guidance, always.

02

Comfort First

Topical numbing cream is applied before treatment.

Most HA fillers also contain lidocaine within the product itself, further minimising any discomfort during the procedure.

03

Precise Injection

Using fine needles or cannulas, Dr Gregorio places the filler with precision in the exact anatomical layers for that area.

The procedure typically takes between 30 and 60 minutes.

04

Immediate & Lasting

Results are visible immediately. Some mild swelling or redness is normal and usually resolves within 24–72 hours.

Final results settle over 2 weeks and typically last 9–18 months.

Why choose a medical doctor for your dermal fillers in London?

Why choose a medical doctor for your dermal fillers in London?

Anatomy Expertise

01
Dr Gregorio’s medical training gives him a comprehensive understanding of facial anatomy, vascular structures and the danger zones where incorrect injection can cause serious complications. Knowledge that no short course provides.

Complication Management

02
While rare, complications from filler can occur. A qualified doctor can recognise, diagnose and treat vascular occlusions and other adverse events immediately. A non-medical practitioner cannot. This distinction can matter enormously.

Premium Products Only

03
We use only CE-marked, clinically validated hyaluronic acid fillers from leading manufacturers. The product quality, concentration and rheological properties vary enormously — and the right choice for each area matters.

Natural Aesthetic Judgment

04
Over 12 years and 20,000 treatments, Dr Gregorio has developed a refined aesthetic sensibility. The goal is always harmony and naturalness — the kind of result where people notice you look well, not that you’ve had something done.

Personally Performed

05
Unlike many clinics where the senior doctor consults but a junior injector treats, Dr Gregorio performs every single treatment himself. From consultation to injection to aftercare — he is there throughout.

Reversible Results

06
All hyaluronic acid fillers used at Vitalumina are fully reversible using hyaluronidase. This provides complete peace of mind — and makes Dr Gregorio’s approach to treatment planning appropriately conservative.

Frequently asked questions about dermal fillers in London.

Dermal fillers typically last between 9 and 18 months, depending on the area treated, the product used and individual metabolism. Lip fillers tend to last 6–12 months, while cheek and jawline fillers can last up to 18 months or more. Dr Gregorio will advise you precisely during your consultation.

Yes, when performed by a qualified medical doctor using clinically approved products. At Vitalumina, all fillers are administered personally by Dr Gregorio De Carvalho. We use only CE-marked hyaluronic acid fillers. All complications — however rare — are managed with full clinical expertise.

Discomfort is minimal. Most hyaluronic acid fillers contain a local anaesthetic (lidocaine) which significantly reduces any sensation during the procedure. We also apply topical numbing cream beforehand. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild pressure rather than pain. Any discomfort typically resolves as soon as the treatment is complete.

Dermal fillers can treat cheeks, jawline, chin, temples, tear troughs (under-eye hollows), nasolabial folds, marionette lines, lips, nose (non-surgical rhinoplasty) and the hands. Dr Gregorio assesses the face holistically and will recommend only the treatments that will genuinely benefit you.
The cost depends on the area treated and the amount of product required. At Vitalumina, pricing is always discussed transparently during your free consultation — before any commitment is made. We never recommend more product than is clinically appropriate. Book a consultation to receive a fully personalised quote.
Downtime is minimal. Some mild swelling, redness or bruising at the injection sites is normal and usually resolves within 24–72 hours. Most patients return to work and normal activities the same day. We advise avoiding strenuous exercise, alcohol and excessive heat for 24 hours after treatment.
Yes. All hyaluronic acid fillers can be fully dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase. Dr Gregorio also offers a dedicated filler dissolving treatment for patients who are unhappy with results received elsewhere. This is one of the key safety advantages of hyaluronic acid fillers over permanent alternatives.
