Fillers
Dermal fillers are non-surgical cosmetic treatments designed to restore lost volume, smooth out wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Administered by Dr. Desmond Chin, Medical Director of Self Aesthetics, these gel-like substances, primarily made of hyaluronic acid (HA), are injected beneath the skin to rejuvenate and sculpt the face. Fillers offer a quick and effective way to achieve a youthful appearance without the need for surgery or extensive downtime.
