Dermal fillers in Ottawa
Restore volume. Smooth lines. Refresh your look.
Dermal fillers are a safe, non-surgical way to restore facial volume, soften lines, and enhance your natural features. At SLMC Laser Clinic in Ottawa, treatments are performed with precision and care to deliver refined, natural-looking results in a calm, luxury setting.
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments designed to:
- Smooth wrinkles and fine lines
- Restore lost volume
- Enhance facial contours
These minimally invasive treatments offer immediate or gradually visible results with little to no downtime, making them a popular choice for women and men aged 30–60 seeking subtle rejuvenation.
Treatment overview
- Procedure time: 15–60 minutes
- Downtime: Minimal
- Results: Last from several months to years, depending on filler type
How dermal fillers work
As we age, the skin naturally loses collagen, elasticity, and fullness. Dermal fillers replace or stimulate this lost volume, helping the skin appear smoother, firmer, and more youthful.
Common treatment areas
Dermal fillers can be used to enhance and balance multiple areas of the face, including:
- Lips: Add volume and definition
- Cheeks: Lift and restore contour
- Under-eyes: Reduce hollows and dark circles
- Nasolabial folds: Soften deep smile lines
- Chin and jawline: Improve balance and definition
- Scars: Improve texture and appearance
