Dermal Fillers in Brighton: Lips, Cheeks, Jawline & Chin Enhancement

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable gels — most commonly made from hyaluronic acid, a substance that occurs naturally in the skin — used to restore volume, enhance facial contours, and smooth lines and folds. Unlike anti-wrinkle injections that relax muscles, fillers work by physically adding volume beneath the skin's surface.

Hyaluronic acid fillers are temporary, biodegradable, and reversible, making them one of the safest and most versatile options in aesthetic medicine.

Popular Treatment Areas

Lip enhancement is one of the most requested filler treatments. Whether you want subtle volume, better definition, or improved symmetry, lip fillers can be tailored to your preferences — from a natural plump to a more defined cupid's bow.

Cheek fillers restore the midface volume that naturally diminishes with age, creating a lifted, more youthful appearance. This treatment can also improve the appearance of under-eye hollows by providing structural support.

Jawline filler creates a sharper, more defined jaw contour. This is popular with both men and women who want to improve facial proportion and reduce the appearance of jowling.

Chin filler can balance facial proportions, strengthen a recessive chin, and improve the profile view. It is often combined with jawline work for a harmonious result.

The Doctor-Led Difference

Dermal filler treatment demands a deep understanding of facial anatomy. Poorly placed filler can lead to an unnatural or overfilled appearance — or, in rare cases, serious vascular complications. At Dr Selvi Clinic in Brighton, every filler treatment is performed by Dr Selvi himself, an ECFMG-registered doctor with advanced training in facial anatomy and injectable techniques.

This medical expertise is particularly important for high-risk areas such as the nose (non-surgical rhinoplasty), the tear troughs (under-eye area), and the lips, where the vascular anatomy is complex.

What to Expect During Treatment

Your appointment begins with a detailed consultation where Dr Selvi assesses your facial structure, discusses your goals, and creates a personalised treatment plan. The procedure itself typically takes 30 to 45 minutes depending on the areas treated.

Most modern fillers contain a built-in anaesthetic (lidocaine), so discomfort is minimal. You may experience mild swelling or bruising for a few days, but there is no significant downtime. Results are visible immediately, though the final outcome settles over 1 to 2 weeks as any swelling resolves.

How Long Do Fillers Last?

Depending on the product used and the area treated, dermal fillers typically last between 6 and 18 months. Lip fillers tend to metabolise faster (6 to 12 months), while cheek and jawline fillers can last 12 to 18 months. Dr Selvi uses only premium hyaluronic acid products selected for their safety profile and natural feel.
