Volume loss around the face is part of the ageing process. Facial tissues eventually thin out, cheeks become hollow, under eyes sink, and laugh lines start to form. These are just some visible signs of ageing caused by volume loss. This is where Face Fillers come in.
Facial fillers restore volume and support to multiple areas on the face. They can help you achieve a smoother, fresher look in parts of your face that look saggy or haggard due to ageing. Dermal filler addresses fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and hollow areas.

What Can Face Fillers Treat?
Facial fillers are known to treat wrinkles and fine lines, especially in areas with volume loss. It also works well to improve sagging skin and areas of the face with loss of collagen due to ageing. Most face fillers use a substance called Hyaluronic Acid. This is a natural substance that is already found in the body.
As we age, signs of skin ageing appear due to the loss of collagen and volume in the face. This leads to problems such as marionette lines, deep nasolabial folds, eye bags,and sunken cheeks. As a result of these changes, it makes our face look older. This is where Face Fillers come in.
Restylane and Juvederm use Hyaluronic Acid to improve the appearance of ageing skin. They can be used to address concerns like eye bags, deep laugh lines, sunken cheeks, treating deep wrinkles, and increasing volume where there is fat loss.
This works by filling up areas that are prone to sagging to regain the natural volume and fullness, for younger-looking skin.
Face fillers may also be combined with other cosmetic treatments such as Ultherapy or Profhilo for enhanced anti-aging and rejuvenating effects.

Commonly Treated Areas of The Face with Fillers
Chin
Chin fillers are an extremely popular treatment amongst women in Singapore.
Chin fillers for facial contouring are a great way to achieve a more V shaped face, improve your jawline, and achieve a more symmetrical and proportionate facial profile.
Augmenting the chin and jawline to achieve the desired feminine face shape and profile requires aesthetic expertise that understands the art of female beauty.
This is the expertise that Ezra Clinic provides.
Under Eye
Eyebags and under eye hollowing are common concerns encountered in women. This is largely attributed to various factors such as the loss of collagen and volume as we age, as well as hectic lifestyles that result in inadequate sleep and long nights.
Under eye fillers are a popularly requested non invasive treatment that helps to contour the under eye region to address concerns such as dark eye circles, tired looking eyes and eyebags.
Expect to see a refreshed appearance with less tired looking and more energetic and brighter eyes.
Under eye fillers are one of the most challenging regions of the face to treat, so ensure that you are getting treated by an experienced practitioner.
Laugh Lines
The loss of collagen and volume in our face leads to sagging in the mid or lower cheeks, this often leads to the formation of laugh lines, which many women do not like. These are referred to as the nasolabial folds.
Fillers are an effective way of treating the laugh lines, and is one of the most highly requested and popular treatments in women.
Sometimes, the best treatment involves pairing your filler treatment with Ultherapy to achieve the best effects of tightening, lifting and reduction of the nasolabial folds.
It is best to consult an experienced doctor to find out if you are a suitable candidate for this treatment.
Cheeks
Sunken cheeks are a common result of the ageing process as well as volume loss which leads to sagging of the face. This often causes a woman’s facial features to look saggy, heavy and tired looking.
Cheek fillers are a quick and easy way to replace the volume loss and provide support over the cheeks to help create a more refreshed and youthful appearance.
For the younger crowd, cheek fillers are also a good way to sculpt the cheeks for facial contouring for a more attractive profile
Liquid Face Lift
As we age, our face starts to lose important structural support in terms of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. We also start to lose volume in our facial fat pads which leads to issues such as skin laxity, fine lines, saggy cheeks and the formation of deep laugh lines or eye bags.
A liquid face lift is a non-invasive and quick way to help restore some of the loss volume and structural support, as well as to help stimulate collagen with the help of fillers.
This treatment is best paired with other treatments such as skin boosters, non surgical face lifting like Ultherapy or Botox for an enhanced, full face rejuvenation.
The appropriate treatment will be decided after a detailed consultation and facial assessment with our doctor, and the best treatment plan will be decided to help you achieve your ideal aesthetic goals.
What are Hyaluronic Acid Fillers?
Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the body. It can be found in areas like your cartilage, joint fluid, connective tissues, and in skin tissues.
As such, this makes hyaluronic acid fillers safe and useful for facial contouring treatments.
Fillers containing hyaluronic acid are very well tolerated. Side effects from this substance are rare but include swelling, redness, and bruising at the injected area.
Hyaluronic Acid’s main ability is to deliver moisture to the skin and hold it so the skin can effectively absorb it. The hydrating powers of this carbohydrate molecule make a face plump, which smooths fine lines and wrinkles. Filler treatments that use HA make the skin plumper, reduces the appearance of ageing and improves contours.
Most treatments are temporary since the substance will gradually break down and be absorbed by the body. The augmentation usually lasts 6 to 12 months. To maintain results, it is recommended to have repeat treatment or top-up treatments.
Most people are suitable for hyaluronic acid filler treatments – since this acid is already found in the body, there is no risk of any allergic reaction. But it is still best to consult your doctor before undergoing any procedures.
Restylane Face Fillers
Restylane is a brand of dermal filler that uses hyaluronic acid and is a collagen stimulating treatment. It is used for fine lines and wrinkles, improving laugh lines or reducing dark under eye circles.
The strategic placement of fillers can help to target visible signs of ageing to help provide a fresher and more rejuvenated appearance.
Restylane filler treatment requires minimal downtime. Common side effects include mild swelling or redness around the injected area. These side effects will go away after a few hours after treatment. Restylane fillers also contain painkillers that will greatly reduce any discomfort during the procedure.
Juvederm Fillers for Face
Juvederm is a well-known dermal filler that is hyaluronic acid-based. There are several Juvederm products available that are tailored to target specific needs. They all have the same goal of addressing the facial signs of ageing.
We lose collagen and volume in various parts of our face as we age. This leads to sagging skin, formation of deep laugh lines, wrinkles and eye bags.
Juvederm treatment is commonly used in the cheeks, eyes and around the nose and mouth area. It works effectively by using hyaluronic acid fillers and other active ingredients to add volume to the facial tissue. This treatment not only helps to restore loss volume, but also has a collagen stimulating effect that helps achieve plump skin.
Are Restylane/Juvederm Fillers Safe?
Just like any other treatment, some people may not be suitable patients for this particular procedure. It should not be used on people with a history of anaphylaxis or multiple severe allergies.
Precautions:
- Get treatments from experienced and licensed physicians
- Have it in a proper medical clinic medical and not a beauty salon
- Inform your doctor if you’re taking any medications that can prolong bleeding and bruising. Also, include any supplements you’re taking because some may interact with ingredients in the fillers.
- Be aware of the ingredients to determine whether you’re allergic to any of the components (e.g., collagen)
- Tell your doctor if you have a history of excessive scarring or pigmentation disorders
To ensure a proper and safe procedure, have your Juvederm Treatment administered by a trained physician.
How long do Restylane/ Juvederm fillers last?
Restylane and Juvederm products can generally last around 9 months to a year.
Longevity of fillers depends on the individual factors, such as metabolism, concurrent treatments done and the location of the filler. For example, fillers injected around areas of high movement e.g. mouth region may break down faster than fillers injected into areas with lesser movement e.g. the undereye region.
It is also important for the doctor to assess your skin and lifestyle and design a customised treatment for you with the appropriate type of filler that may last the longest. The formation and depth of your wrinkles and fine lines will also play a role in your doctor’s estimate.
Which filler is better: Juvederm or Restylane?
Restylane and Juvederm are the 2 most commonly used brands of facial fillers that are popular and frequently used to perform filler treatments. They utilise hyaluronic acid to fill and plump up areas of volume loss. These treatments are both safe, effective, non-invasive and come with minimal side effects.
Fillers for Face Before and After the Treatment
Face Fillers enhance features by volumizing, contouring, and improving the symmetry of the face. These are commonly used on areas like the cheeks, undereye, chin, and jawline. Hollowing on the cheeks and under eyes can be plumped out, laugh lines can be softened, and chin can be enhanced if you want to achieve a V-shaped face.
This treatment is non-invasive and gives instant results. After a 30-minute appointment, expect to leave the clinic looking a better version of you!
Face Fillers Side Effects
Facial fillers are generally safe when performed by an experienced and licensed doctor. But just like any other medical treatment, Face Fillers may carry a small risk of some mild side effects such as swelling, bruising over the injected area. This is usually temporary and mild and will resolve in a few days.
There are also rare side effects such as infection, skin cell death, and movement of the filler.
This is why it is important to get your filler treatment by a licensed medical practitioner.
