Dermal filler is made from a product called Hyaluronic Acid. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring sugar that exists in almost all living organisms, including us. Its key role is to absorb water and transport nutrients to the skin, ensuring that the structure and volume is maintained.

At DrBK, we use the Pluryal® Lidocaine Dermal Filler range. The addition of lidocaine ensures minimal discomfort during procedures. Where appropriate (depending on the treatment area and the individual case of the patient), we will use a new generation of dermal filler from Pluryal®, which is called a "Biofiller".

Pluryal® are a European based family-owned business that has been researching and developing scientifically-approved medical aesthetic products since 1999. Learn more about Pluryal here.

The next generation of dermal fillers

With Pluryal® Biofillers you don’t need to choose between recreating your facial volumes and healing your skin. Regular fillers are typically used to restore the volumes of the skin by filling its depressions, Pluryal Biofillers, on the other hand, act way beyond regular fillers as they biostimulate deep within the dermis, ensuring maximum hydration at every cellular level and increasing skin’s smoothness, elasticity, and firmness. In addition, Pluryal® Biofillers act as biostimulators, carefully healing the skin and boosting the production of new cell layers.

More-natural looking results and migration prevention

Pluryal® Biofillers are manufactured using using 3 different types of hyaluronic acid, whose particles are much smaller than those used in standard products. This promotes the penetration and distribution of the dermal filler in the tissues, preventing migration and promoting more natural-looking results.

Environmentally conscious

By choosing Pluryal® Biofillers, we are choosing conscious products that respect the planet and are environmentally friendly. The Pluryal®️ Biofiller that we use here is called Biovolume®.

The product is administered with the use of a cannula, which helps to keep swelling and bruising to a minimum. A little discomfort is not uncommon. However, if you feel particularly sensitive, we are able to administer a local anaesthetic, although in most cases this is not necessary.

The appointment is booked in for around 30 minutes. This allows time for cleansing of the skin, numbing and the treatment itself.

The beauty of dermal fillers are that the results take effect immediately (although it's worth noting you may experience mild swelling initially).
