Fillers are gel-like injectables that restore volume, soften fine lines, and support contours. The most commonly used category in aesthetic medicine is hyaluronic acid, a molecule naturally present in the body that attracts water and makes your skin look fuller and more supple. Other categories stimulate collagen production or provide firmness for deeper folds.
A filler treatment is minimally invasive and is performed using fine needles or cannulas. The goal: subtle accents that relax your face and make it look fresh. Results are often immediately visible. With hyaluronic acid, the effect can also be corrected or reversed if needed.

The beauty of fillers: you usually see a difference right away, with some extra refinement once any mild swelling has subsided. With hyaluronic acid fillers, the result typically remains visible for 9 to 24 months, depending on the area, product, and your own metabolism. Most treatments take 20 to 30 minutes, with attention to comfort and safety.
Important to know: neurotoxins have a different purpose than fillers. They relax specific muscles and allow wrinkles to soften after a few hours to 3 days, with a peak effect after two weeks. Fillers provide volume and structure. We often combine techniques for a gentle, harmonious rejuvenation that looks natural.
Not every skin or area requires the same approach. That's why there are different types of fillers, each with their own strengths. During a consultation, we look together at what suits your face and expectations, aiming for a subtle, natural-looking result.
Hyaluronic acid provides immediate filling and hydration. Ideal for lip definition, tear trough, fine lines around the mouth, and softening folds. Major advantage: it is adjustable and if necessary reversible, which gives a safe feeling when fine-tuning subtle accents.
This category provides more firmness and is suitable for deeper folds or accentuating the jawline and cheeks. The effect is slightly longer-lasting and works partly by stimulating your own production processes.
Known as a biostimulator that stimulates your own collagen. The result builds up gradually, looking natural for volume loss in larger areas. Sculptra also provides a lifting effect. Do you want to consult background information from the manufacturer? Then check the information from Galderma.
For lips, we work with precise techniques: think subtle mucosal hydration, fine border definition, and balance between upper and lower lip. The goal is always natural, respecting your proportions and facial expressions.
Fillers are versatile. Some frequently requested areas:
Each area requires the right technique and the right choice of product. That's where expertise and anatomical insight make the difference.
The comparison below helps you understand how choices are made. Ultimately, we decide together what suits your goals and face.
| Type | Action | Common areas | Reversible | Average visibility | Best fit | Limitations |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hyaluronic acid | Immediate filling and hydration | Lips, tear trough, fine lines, folds | Yes | 9 to 24 months | Subtle, adjustable accents | Regular maintenance sessions needed |
| Calcium hydroxylapatite | Firmness and support | Cheekbones, jawline, deeper folds | No | 12 to 18 months | More structure in contours | Less suitable for very fine lines |
| Poly-L-lactic acid | Biostimulation of collagen | Larger volume deficits and lifting effect | No | 12 to 24 months | Gradual, natural build-up | Result requires time and multiple sessions |
Safety always comes first. During the consultation, we review your medical history, allergies, and any previous treatments. We only choose techniques and products with proven added value and suited to your anatomy. A sterile, careful approach and well-considered product choice minimize risks and increase the predictability of the result.
We closely follow regulations and scientific insights. For instance, the European Commission recently published a test campaign on hyaluronic acid products on the market. Read more in this message from the European Commission. For you, this translates into transparent information and clear agreements about aftercare.
we listen to your wishes, examine facial expressions and skin quality, and discuss what is realistic and flattering for your face. We show where volume loss or shadow occurs and how subtle fillers can soften that.
you receive a clear proposal with areas, indicative amounts, and sequence. Comfort is important. We work with techniques that minimize needle pricks, and we calmly explain each step.
they usually take 20 to 30 minutes. The result is often immediately visible. Mild redness or swelling can occur and typically subsides quickly.
you receive clear tips to optimally care for the effect, such as gentle cooling and avoiding firm rubbing for the first few hours. If necessary, we schedule an evaluation moment to adjust for the best, most natural result.
A natural-looking result feels like yourself, just fresher. We deliberately choose subtle accents instead of big changes. Curious what this can look like? View the atmosphere and examples on our before and after page. This way you see how small adjustments can make a big difference in appearance.
Every medical procedure has possible side effects. With fillers, we sometimes see temporary redness, swelling, pressure sensation, or tenderness at the injection site. Bruising can occur, especially in areas with many fine blood vessels. Thanks to a careful technique and correct product choice, complaints are usually mild and short-lived.

The final cost depends on the chosen areas, the type of filler, the required amount, and the complexity of the treatment. We always communicate clearly in advance and work with a customized plan, so you won't face any surprises.

Based on this, we propose a phased plan. Sometimes a small adjustment is enough. Sometimes a combination of techniques is indicated for a gentler, global rejuvenation. Always with an eye on a fresh, relaxed appearance.

Make an appointmentA classic hyaluronic acid filler immediately provides volume and lift, think of filling a lip or lifting a jawline. Biostimulators like Sculptra work more slowly. They stimulate your skin to produce new, firm collagen. The advantage? A progressive strengthening that continues to improve weeks to months after treatment, without anyone seeing an overfilled effect.
If you choose immediate contour improvement, a classic filler is the obvious choice. If you want to improve skin quality and firmness in the long term, biostimulation offers a deeper, natural rejuvenation. In practice, we often combine both: first a biostimulator for the base, then a fine filler for the finishing touch. This is how we always work towards a result that suits your face.
Sculptra uses poly-L-lactic acid, a body-own, biodegradable substance that triggers a controlled reaction deep in the skin. That reaction stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen, the support structure of your skin. You do not see the result immediately. In the first weeks, collagen builds up, so volume gradually returns and the skin feels tighter.
On average, two to three sessions are needed, with an interval of four to six weeks. After the last session, the result remains visible for up to two years, sometimes longer with an annual maintenance treatment. The disadvantages you often read about online, swelling, small bumps, can be easily avoided in experienced hands. After treatment, massaging the area for five minutes, five days in a row, is essential to distribute the product evenly and reduce the chance of irregularities.
Sculptra is safe, but not suitable for everyone. A comprehensive consultation examines your skin elasticity, medical background, and aesthetic wishes. Because the result emerges slowly and naturally, we avoid the ‘done’ feeling sometimes associated with fillers. It is an ideal choice for those who want a fresh, rested appearance without a noticeable change.
Skinboosters are thin hyaluronic acid preparations that are not intended to add volume, but to intensively improve skin quality. They are distributed into the superficial skin layers through micro-injections. There, they attract moisture, stimulate cell activity, and improve suppleness and complexion.
Think of products like Profhilo or Restylane Vital. After a course of two or three sessions, the skin looks fuller, more even, and more radiant. Fine lines fade, pores appear smaller, and the skin feels firmer. Skinboosters are suitable for the entire face, but also for the neck, décolletage, and hands, areas often forgotten but that betray your age.
At Dr T., we often use skinboosters as a spring treatment or in combination with a biostimulator. The result is not a dramatic change, but a fresh, healthy glow that others notice without knowing what you had done.
Do lip fillers hurt? Honestly: the lip is sensitive, but we ensure your comfort is our top priority. Before the treatment, we apply a strong numbing cream and let it take full effect. Then we use a fine cannula or needle, depending on your anatomy. Most clients feel light pressure or a tingling sensation, not sharp pain.
The best lip filler for a natural and soft result is a flexible hyaluronic acid filler with low cohesivity. It adapts well to lip movement and reduces the chance of a stiff, swollen look. We deliberately avoid excessive volume and work with your natural lip shape. The goal is a fresh, hydrated lip with subtle contour enhancement, not a duck face, but balanced refinement that suits your face.
The tear trough, the area between the lower eyelid and cheek, is one of the most delicate areas of the face. A hollow or dark tear trough gives a tired, older appearance. With the right filler, we can subtly fill that hollow, so that light reflects beautifully again and the transition from eye to cheek looks softer.
For the tear trough, we use a smooth, thin hyaluronic acid filler that spreads flexibly under the thin skin. The injection technique is crucial: we place the product deep onto the bone, away from the eyeball, to prevent blue discoloration (Tyndall effect) and irregularities. The result is a natural, effortless brightening of the eye area. Not a tight, immobile look, but a fresh gaze that suits your age.
