Filler treatments
Filler treatments hydrate the skin and reduce the signs of aging. While many beauty products only moisturize the surface of your skin, filler treatments deeply moisturize your skin from the inside out. Filler treatments can smooth moderate to severe lines and wrinkles on the face, and modify facial features, such as filling in the lips or shaping the nose*, chin or cheekbones. If desired, the results can be maintained with repeat treatments, which are performed every 3-24 months, depending on the product used.
*However, we do not recommend shaping the nose with fillers because vital blood vessels to the brain run through the nose area and the risks of complications are too high.
The active ingredient in fillers is hyaluronic acid. The skin naturally contains hyaluronic acid, but with age, the production of hyaluronic acid decreases, which causes the skin to dry out and age. Hyaluronic acid binds moisture well, which makes it a particularly good ingredient for filler treatments.
The duration of the effects of filler treatment varies between the products used. The client's age, lifestyle, general condition and skin also affect the duration of the treatment result. Typically, the results of filler treatment last from a few months to a year. Follow-up treatments increase the durability of the filler, so that the treatment results last longer and also typically less filler is needed in subsequent treatments.
How much filler is needed and how much does filler treatment cost?
The price of filler treatment is determined by the filler used and its amount. Filler products differ in their composition, duration and purpose. The amount of filler needed is influenced by the desired end result, the client's skin and age, and the area being treated. One milliliter of filler can often already produce a visible change. However, if you want a more radical change, or the area being treated is larger, more filler may be needed.

Are filler treatments suitable for me and what should I consider before treatment?
Ennen täyteainehoidon tekemistä hoitoon erikoistunut hoitaja käy kanssasi läpi esitietolomakkeen avulla mahdolliset esteet ja reaktiot sekä riskit toimenpiteelle. Ennen hoitoa hoitaja kartoittaa terveydentilaasi, sekä toiveitasi hoidon suhteen, sekä käy kanssasi läpi myös jälkihoito-ohjeet. Täyteainehoitoihin liittyy aina riski komplikaatioista, joista osa saattaa edellyttää lääkärin hoitoa.
Esteet täyteainehoidoille:
- Certain diseases
- Certain medications, including permanent medication that affects blood clotting.
- Flu or other respiratory infection
- The skin in the area to be treated is damaged (wound, bruise, bad rash, etc.)
If you have been diagnosed with a disease or are taking medication, please always check with your doctor before treatment to make sure the treatment is suitable for you.
Other things to consider before filler treatment
Avoid taking anti-inflammatory drugs such as acetylsalicylic acid or ibuprofen (Aspirin, Disperin, Burana), Omega-3 / fish oil preparations, vitamin E, and herbal products that may increase the occurrence of bruising or bleeding at the injection site for 1-2 weeks before and immediately after treatment.
If the area to be treated has previously undergone an aesthetic procedure, laser treatment, etc. intensive care, please check with your nurse when it is safe for you to have the next aesthetic procedure.
Injection treatments, especially those performed on the lips and mouth, can trigger cold sores (herpes). If you have previously had herpes on your face, we recommend taking preventive herpes medication on the day of treatment.
Some of the products and anesthetics used contain lidocaine, which can give a positive result in doping tests.
Progression of filler treatment
Before filler treatment, the nurse consults the client either before the treatment in a separate consultation or during the treatment. During the consultation, the client's wishes and needs are discussed and the client's health status is assessed. During the consultation, the nurse also explains the possible risks and reactions of the treatment, and goes over the obstacles to the treatment and aftercare instructions with the client. Finally, the client signs a release form and a photograph is taken of the area to be treated.
At the beginning of the filler treatment, the skin is carefully cleansed and anesthetized if the client so desires. The filler is injected into the skin in small amounts with a very thin needle or cannula, after which the filler is smoothed out by pressing the skin with your fingers.
Does filler treatment hurt?
Pain is always individual. Typically, the most painful treatment area is the lip area, which contains a lot of nerve endings. In contrast, filler treatments in other areas are almost painless. An anesthetic cream can be used to relieve pain. In addition, some filler preparations contain an anesthetic, which makes the treatment more pleasant.
Hyaluron Pen
The world's most popular needle-free filler treatment!
Hyaluron Pen is a pen-shaped tool that uses air pressure to inject hyaluronic acid into the surface layer of the skin. Hyaluronic acid products are 100% biodegradable and CE approved.
Hyaluron Pen enables a completely new way of performing filler treatments without needles, injections and pain!
The Hyaluron Pen tool is used to deliver hyaluronic acid to the papillary dermis layer of the skin, where collagen is also located. The filler is injected through a microscopic opening that is half as thin as the injection needle used in injection treatments. The treatment is almost painless for the client. If the client is very sensitive to pain, they can obtain their own anesthetic and apply it to the area to be treated.
Hyaluronic acid binds water a thousand times its own size. Thanks to this, the skin will look smoother, more elastic and more plump after the treatment. The shape of the lips can be corrected, made fuller and at the same time the end result is very natural. Hyaluronic acid is thin in composition and its molecular size is small. Thanks to the Hyaluron Pen device, the thin filler spreads evenly into the skin and the skin area to be filled becomes soft, flexible and natural-looking.
The Hyaluron Pen treatment can also successfully fill superficial and medium-deep wrinkles, such as scars, smile lines and forehead wrinkles. Filling and smoothing wrinkles with hyaluronic acid makes the skin smoother, more elastic and younger looking.
Filling deep wrinkles with the fillers used in Hyaluron Pen treatment is not completely successful.
