A filler is made from hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural substance already found in our skin and joints. Its main job is to lock in moisture and support collagen, keeping the skin firm, smooth, and elastic.
As we age, the body produces less HA and collagen. This leads to dryness, thinning skin, fine lines, and sagging. Filler injections help restore lost volume and smooth out these visible signs of aging.
In beauty treatments, doctors use synthetic HA fillers that can naturally break down over time. They are FDA-approved and safe for the body. The gel-like texture blends under the skin, filling hollow areas, smoothing wrinkles, and giving the face a fresher, younger appearance.
Aside from filling deep lines, fillers can reshape the face, restore volume, and target specific concerns in many areas — under the eyes, temples, cheeks, smile lines, lips, jawline, and chin. The doctor will select the right injection points and techniques based on each person’s facial structure to achieve the best results.
Dark hollows under the eyes often make the face look exhausted and older. Fillers plump up these hollows, brighten the area, and add hydration, instantly giving a fresher, more youthful appearance.
This technique adds volume along the lower lash line to create a soft, smiling look, similar to the natural fullness that appears when we smile. Unlike under eye fillers for dark circles, this focuses on enhancing charm and sweetness.
Dolly Eye filler reviews:
Sunken temples can make the face look uneven or too angular. Temple fillers restore balance, smooth out the facial contour, and give a softer, more harmonious look.
Hollow cheeks can make the face appear harsh or unbalanced. Fillers add volume back, creating a softer, healthier look and improving overall facial symmetry.
Review of sunken cheek fillers
Flat or sunken mid-cheeks can make the face look tired. Fillers in this area add fullness, lift the central face, and help soften smile line area, which is one of the key spots that instantly make the face look younger.
With age, smile lines (nasolabial folds) remain visible even when not smiling, giving a tired or stern look. Fillers lift and smooth these lines, making the face appear softer and younger.
Smile line filler reviews:
Lip fillers reshape and plump the lips, correcting flat lips, downturned corners, or dry lines. They add natural fullness and definition in your preferred style, with instant results and no surgery.
Lines under the corners of the mouth often make the face look older. Fillers smooth these lines, brighten the expression, and bring back a more youthful look.
Marionette line filler reviews:
For those with a flat or undefined jawline, fillers sharpen the jaw contour, enhance dimension, and create a sleek, structured facial frame.
The amount of filler (CCs) depends on each person’s facial structure, skin condition, and the desired result. The doctor will assess carefully to recommend just the right amount, enough to see results, but not excessive.
Example of common filler amounts by area (approximate):
Injecting fillers in several areas during one session can bring a more noticeable transformation, since facial features are connected. For example, treating under eyes, mid-cheeks, and smile lines together gives a more harmonious and balanced result.
Fillers can be done all at once or in stages over time, depending on your preference and convenience.
After injections, fillers gradually settle and results become clear within about 1 month. On average, results last 8–12 months, since hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers naturally break down in the body.
Duration may vary depending on:
Both types use hyaluronic acid (HA), but their textures and purposes are different.
Facial Filler Injections are designed to add volume, correct asymmetry, and smooth deep lines. They enhance facial proportions, giving a more youthful, balanced, and refreshed look.
Skin Filler (also called skin boosters) are lighter in texture. They focus on hydration, skin quality, and reducing fine lines. Instead of reshaping the face, they make the skin smoother, plumper, and healthier-looking.
Recommended skin fillers you’ll love
When choosing a filler, quality, safety, and authenticity should always come first. Today, there are many FDA-approved filler brands that meet international standards and are officially registered with Thailand’s FDA. Each brand and product line is designed for specific injection areas and treatment goals.
A popular Korean filler trusted worldwide. Known for its versatility across different facial areas, Neuramis is praised for its reliable quality and affordable price.
A premium filler from Sweden, recognized for its advanced production technology and multiple product options for different skin concerns. Widely trusted by doctors globally.
A premium filler from Sweden, recognized for its advanced production technology and multiple product options for different skin concerns. Widely trusted by doctors globally.
A high-quality filler from the US, produced with unique Hylacross and VYCROSS technologies. These allow excellent hydration and natural-looking results.
Before getting fillers, the most important step is to make sure the filler is authentic and officially imported. No matter which brand or type you choose, it must be approved by the Thai FDA and distributed by an authorized company.
Easy ways to check if a filler is genuine:
If the clinic avoids showing these details or refuses to unbox the filler before use, consider it a red flag.
Examples of how to check for authentic filler:
Although fillers are very popular and widely available, some clinics still use fake or unapproved products without informing customers, which can cause both short- and long-term risks.
Types of fake fillers to avoid:
What about genuine fillers? Authentic hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are safe, fully dissolvable, and FDA-approved. If any issue occurs, they can be dissolved quickly by a qualified doctor. Never get injections from unlicensed providers or so-called “backpack doctors.”
Fat grafting uses your own fat, usually taken from the stomach or thighs, to restore volume in the face. While it’s natural, the results are unpredictable because some fat may dissolve or be reabsorbed by the body. This often requires multiple sessions, and if the fat spreads unevenly, it may cause lumps or uneven texture.
Fillers, on the other hand, offer more precision in both amount and placement. Results are immediate, there’s no downtime, and if you’re not satisfied, they can be adjusted or dissolved. For those seeking accuracy, safety, and predictable results, fillers are often the more convenient choice.
To achieve natural-looking results and minimize side effects, proper preparation before fillers and aftercare are very important.
Although filler injections are not complicated, preparation helps reduce needle marks and bruising that may last longer. Recommended:
Note: Pregnant or breastfeeding women should not get fillers for safety reasons.
How to take care of yourself after filler injections
Aftercare plays a big role in how well fillers settle and how long they last. Recommended:
No food restrictions, but to reduce swelling and bruising, avoid pickled foods, very spicy dishes, or high-sodium meals for 3–7 days.
Mild swelling may occur for 7–14 days, but it’s usually unnoticeable to others. Fillers will naturally blend into the skin within 4 weeks.
1. Consultation: Discuss concerns with the doctor, who will analyze your face and recommend the most suitable filler brand and type.
2. Preparation: Skin is cleansed and sterilized before treatment.
3. Filler check: The assistant opens the filler box in front of you and explains how to confirm it’s genuine.
4. Injection: The doctor performs the procedure according to plan. It usually takes 20–30 minutes.
5. Aftercare advice: Check results in the mirror and receive detailed aftercare instructions from the doctor.
6. Follow-up: Return after 1 month when fillers have fully settled for a check-up with no extra charge.
Not as much as you might think. Cold compresses are used, and most fillers (e.g., Neuramis) contain lidocaine. Extra numbing cream is available if needed. In sensitive areas like under eyes or midface, blunt cannulas may be used.
Summary: Fillers are a safe, non-surgical option to correct imperfections, contour the face, and slow aging. Results are immediate, downtime is minimal, and safety is high when using FDA-approved products with an experienced doctor. Choosing a trusted clinic ensures confidence and satisfying results.
At MEGA CLINIC, safety is our top priority.
As we age, the skin starts to sag, fat and collagen decrease, and facial bones shrink. This causes hollow areas and deep lines. Fillers work by restoring lost volume in these areas, balancing the face, and bringing back a youthful look that resembles your natural features before aging.
Injecting fillers in several areas during one session is possible and often recommended for a more balanced look. Common combined areas include the temples, cheeks, jawline, and chin. The doctor will decide how much filler to use and the right technique for each spot.
A blunt cannula is a soft, rounded-tip needle with a side opening that allows the filler to flow out. Its advantage is lowering the risk of hitting blood vessels, reducing bruising and swelling, and making the procedure safer.
Doctors usually use blunt cannulas in delicate areas with important blood vessels or thin tissues, such as under the eyes, Dolly Eyes, smile lines (nasolabial folds), and midface.
Lack of results can happen if the doctor is inexperienced or if the amount and placement of filler are not suitable for your face. In this case, the filler may not effectively correct the targeted area.
This is why choosing a skilled doctor and a trusted clinic is essential to achieve results that meet your expectations.
HA fillers are highly biocompatible and naturally break down in the body. When performed by an experienced doctor with genuine fillers, they are generally safe. “Often” can mean two things:
No, not necessarily. If the doctor sees that more can be added, you can get a top-up without waiting for the old filler to vanish completely. This is common in areas that move a lot, such as smile lines or lips.
Not at all. You can switch brands or types, as long as they are FDA-approved HA fillers. The doctor will recommend the right product for your skin needs and desired results.
The most important thing is to make sure the clinic uses authentic fillers and has experienced doctors to advise on the best choice.
Filler dissolving uses an enzyme called Hyaluronidase to safely and quickly break down HA fillers, restoring the area to its original state.
It is usually done when the result is unsatisfactory, such as lumps or unevenness. Although rare, it can happen, and this method provides a quick solution.
Note: Only genuine HA fillers can be dissolved 100%. Fake fillers, such as liquid silicone, cannot be dissolved and must be removed surgically, which is riskier.
Yes. You can live normally after treatment. Traveling or flying is fine. However, if you want a follow-up once the filler has fully settled, it’s best to see your doctor around one month later, especially if you plan to be away for a long time.
