Wrinkle and fold fillers
Dermal fillers gently volumise deeper lines and creases, giving you a more refreshed and youthful appearance.
Small, carefully targeted filler injections plump your skin. This replenishes lost volume and moisture, subtly reducing the depth of static wrinkles and folds. Fillers are predominantly used in the lower face, although they can complement botox procedures for deep lines in the mid and upper face.

Reviews for our Wrinkle and fold fillers treatment
What is wrinkle and fold filler treatment like?

Before your treatment
You’ll begin with a consultation to discuss the areas you’d like to treat and the results you’re hoping to achieve. Your practitioner will assess your skin and facial expressions to determine the most effective placement of the filler.
During your treatment
The filler is injected into targeted wrinkles or folds, such as smile lines or marionette lines, using a fine needle or cannula. The treatment typically takes around 30 minutes. A numbing cream may be applied beforehand to help minimise any discomfort.
After your treatment
It’s common to experience slight redness, swelling or bruising at the injection sites, but this will fade within a few days. You’ll notice results immediately, with the treated areas appearing smoother and more refreshed as any swelling reduces.

Wrinkle and fold filler – your questions answered
What is the science behind filler?
Dermal fillers are made from substances like hyaluronic acid—a naturally occurring molecule in your skin.
When injected, the filler replenishes lost volume, lifts sagging areas, and smooths out wrinkles by physically filling in lines. Additionally, it can stimulate collagen production over time, helping to restore a youthful, balanced appearance.
Take a look at our Ultimate Guide to Dermal Filler for more information about this hugely popular treatment.
Which folds and wrinkles can dermal fillers help with?
Dermal fillers are generally used to plump out deeper, static folds and wrinkles in the lower face. ‘Static’ means that they aren’t caused by muscle movement; they are generally a natural part of the skin ageing process. Static folds include nasolabial folds, marionette lines, oral commissures and perioral lines.
Wrinkles caused by muscle activity are generally found in the mid and upper face, for example crow’s feet, frown lines and forehead wrinkles. While usually treated with botox, if the lines are particularly deep, dermal fillers might also be used.
Can filler be used for indents caused by scarring?
Yes, dermal fillers can help to plump the indented skin, lessening the appearance of the scar. Read more about dermal fillers for scars.
Does filler hurt?
No, all our dermal filler injections include a local anaesthetic to minimise discomfort.
How long will the appointment take?
The overall appointment will take around 45 minutes, which includes a full consultation with one of our practitioners. The injections themselves will take around 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the number of areas to be treated.
Will there be any bruising?
We are careful to minimise any bruising. However, it’s possible that some bruising, reddening or swelling might occur following your treatment. This should reduce significantly after a couple of days and be gone completely after ten days.
Who shouldn’t have dermal fillers?
Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not have dermal filler treatments. Before any treatment takes place, your Melior Clinics practitioner will discuss your medical history to ensure that the treatment is safe and appropriate for you.
How long do dermal fillers last?
The rejuvenating effect of fillers will last from six to twelve months. Exactly how long varies from patient to patient. It is also influenced by how long you’ve been having fillers for – if you’ve been having fillers over a number of years then the effects should gradually last longer and you’ll need fewer treatments.
Can I have filler and botox at the same time?
Yes, in fact this is a very popular option for overall rejuvenation. Dermal fillers and botox complement each other perfectly. Botox reduces wrinkles caused by active muscle action, while fillers smooth the static wrinkles which botox can’t treat.
