Over the past 20 years, the introduction of Restylane in 2003 has revolutionised the provision of aesthetic treatments. Now, clinics such as Dr Owen’s new dermal filler London location have been able to provide accredited aesthetic treatments safely and effectively.
Using dermal fillers to replace volume that has been lost over time will revitalise and rejuvenate the face. Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers provide an optimal solution for reducing signs of ageing including facial shadows.
As it is naturally found within the skin, hyaluronic acid only lasts around 2-3 days before being recycled. Dermal fillers, however, link these natural molecules, leading to long-lasting results. This is why dermal fillers are the ideal solution for the rejuvenation of the face.
We are also able to tailor dermal filler treatments to your specific requirements by using different consistencies under ultrasound guidance to ensure accurate placement. In our London clinic, we can offer softer dermal filler treatments for lips and other areas of natural movement, whereas a thicker gel can be placed onto underlying bone such as in the cheeks or chin.
With our extensive experience providing dermal filler treatment, we have come to recognise the importance that underlying skeletal and soft tissue structures have on aesthetic treatments. For example, you might recognise that as we age, our skin tends to sag more than when we were younger. This is caused by a loss of volume causing soft tissue laxity. The use of targeted dermal filler treatment helps to counteract this laxity in the skin, providing a more youthful and appealing look.
Dr Owen is able to offer injections using a needle or cannula depending on the area of the face, and will always use the safest possible method to provide you with a successful treatment. With a Master’s Degree in injectable aesthetic treatments alongside completing the Aesthetic Intelligence Fellowship and over 20 years experience as a medical professional, you can trust Dr Owen as one of the best dermal filler doctors in London.
Often being the first place to target during a rejuvenation, injections restore volume lost from the bony skeleton, providing a subtle nonsurgical facelift to the lower face.
Restores temple hollowing, providing a subtle facelift for mid and lower face due to myomodulation.
Replaces volume lost from the frontal part of the skull. Reduces wrinkles to provide a smooth and youthful appearance.
A precise operation to fill the tear trough groove. It is vital that injections are not overfilled during this process, as this could cause oedema.
As part of the natural ageing process, the chin shrinks back. This can have a negative effect on overall appearance, but dermal fillers can counteract these effects, giving a much more youthful look with balanced facial proportions.
As a signature treatment for Dr Owen, you can be sure that this treatment will be safe, precise and effective. Tiny needles are used to correct nasal hump, deviation of the nose, drooping of the nose and a broad nasal tip.
Whether for masculine or feminine appearance, a well-defined jawline is often sought-after. Normally using a cannula to disguise jowling, dermal fillers may also be used in combination with a Morpheus8 treatment.
Dr Owen can reduce drooping that occurs around the corners of the mouth using cannula with a needle to strengthen the tissues.

As dermal fillers are normally made of hyaluronic acid, the molecules of the natural substance are held together using laboratory processes to ensure that the effects are long-lasting. Being totally biodegradable, dermal fillers can be reduced if necessary using a reversing enzyme.
This will vary from person to person – in most areas benefit is seen for around 12-24 months.
This will depend on the area that the injections have been used on, the concentration of hyaluronic acid used, the volume of filler used, plus individual factors such as your metabolism. MRI scans would suggest that dermal fillers can last a lot longer than this, so if you have any queries, feel free to contact us.
It is vital to not overfill a face with dermal filler, as this can lead to an unnatural pillow-faced appearance. In our dermal filler London clinic, we pride ourselves on our ability to carry out treatments with precision, expertise, and effectiveness. Dr Owen also treats patients who have been overfilled with filler dissolving treatment with ultrasound guidance.
Dr Owen only uses premium FDA-approved fillers such as Restylane, Teoxane, Belotero, and Juvederm. There are a number of studies to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of these fillers.
There is an exceptionally low chance of experiencing an adverse effect of a dermal filler treatment. Around 0.05% of patients experience lumps forming in the filler over the months and years following a treatment, which can be easily treated with a saline injection.
Most adults can get dermal fillers, but they’re not suitable for everyone. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or people with certain allergies or skin conditions, should avoid them.
There’s minimal downtime. Most people return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. Some redness, swelling, or bruising can occur but typically resolves within a few days.
Yes, certain types of fillers made from hyaluronic acid can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase if needed.
Dermal fillers are injectable substances used to restore lost volume, smooth lines, soften creases, or enhance facial contours. They are commonly made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin.
