Lips, cheeks, jawline
Dermal Fillers in London
Restore volume and structure, planned around your face
Hyaluronic acid fillers restore lost volume and support to cheeks, lips, chin and jawline. We plan placement around your face’s natural proportions.
The treatment
What are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are gels of hyaluronic acid, a sugar your skin already makes, injected to restore lost volume and structure. They are available at PureSkin in Marylebone, London. Your practitioner uses fillers to shape the lips, lift the cheeks, define the chin and jawline and soften deep folds, planning each area around the natural proportions of your face.
- Fuller, more defined lips
- Lifted cheeks and a fresher mid-face
- A sharper chin and jawline
- Softer nasolabial folds and marionette lines
- Results you see straight away
- Reversible: hyaluronic acid can be dissolved if needed

The science
How do Dermal Fillers work?
Hyaluronic acid holds water, so filler adds volume and support where the face has lost it with age. Your practitioner chooses a firmer or softer gel for each area and places it at the right depth. Most fillers contain a local anaesthetic to keep you comfortable, and your body breaks the gel down over months.

Questions
Dermal Fillers FAQs
How much do dermal fillers cost in London?
At PureSkin, dermal fillers cost from £399 per treatment. The price depends on the area and how much filler you need, and your practitioner confirms it at a free consultation.
How long do dermal fillers last?
Lip filler lasts about 6 to 12 months. Cheek, chin and jawline filler can last 12 to 18 months, because those areas move less. Your metabolism and lifestyle also affect how long it lasts.
Do lip fillers hurt?
We apply numbing cream first, and the filler contains local anaesthetic, so most clients feel pressure and a brief sting. Lips are sensitive, and the discomfort passes within minutes.
Will my fillers look natural?
Your practitioner plans each area around your natural proportions and recommends a subtle amount. You can add more at the review, which is why we see you again at 2 weeks.
Can dermal fillers be dissolved?
Yes. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase if you are unhappy with the result or there is a complication. This is one reason we use hyaluronic acid fillers.
What is the difference between fillers and Profhilo?
Fillers add volume and structure to shape areas such as the lips, cheeks and jawline. Profhilo spreads under the skin to hydrate and firm it, and adds no volume. Many clients use both.
How long does swelling last after fillers?
Most swelling settles within 1 to 3 days, and lips can stay a little swollen for up to a week. The final result shows at about 2 weeks.
Are dermal fillers safe?
Fillers have a good safety record when a trained practitioner places them. Serious complications are rare, and we check your medical history first and give you clear aftercare and a contact number.
How old do you have to be to get fillers?
You must be 18 or over. Since 2021, giving cosmetic fillers to anyone under 18 has been illegal in England, and we check ID when needed.
How much lip filler do I need?
Most first-time lip treatments use 0.5ml to 1ml. Your practitioner starts with a subtle amount that suits your lip shape, and you can build up at later appointments if you want more volume.
What does cheek filler do?
Cheek filler restores volume lost from the mid-face with age. It lifts the cheeks, supports the under-eye area and can soften nasolabial folds, giving the face a fresher, more rested look.
Can filler define my jawline and chin?
Yes. Firmer fillers placed along the jawline and at the chin sharpen the profile and balance the lower face. Jawline and chin filler can last 12 to 18 months.
Can filler treat dark circles and under-eye hollows?
Tear trough filler can soften hollows that cast shadows under the eyes. It does not suit everyone, so your practitioner assesses your under-eye area first and may suggest polynucleotides instead for thin or crepey skin.
Can dermal filler move or migrate?
Filler migration is uncommon when a trained practitioner places the right amount of the right product at the right depth. Avoiding pressure and massage on the area for the first 2 weeks also helps it settle in place.
Where can I get dermal fillers in London?
PureSkin offers dermal fillers at 11 Welbeck Street, London W1G 9XZ, in Marylebone, a minute from Harley Street and a short walk from Bond Street station. The clinic is open Monday to Saturday, 11am to 7pm.
