When it comes to achieving a refreshed, youthful look without surgery, dermal fillers are one of the most effective and versatile cosmetic therapies available. These non-invasive treatments have gained immense popularity in Hobart and beyond for their ability to enhance facial contours, restore lost volume, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
At Heart Aesthetics Hobart, we offer TGA-approved dermal filler treatments tailored to each client’s unique needs. Whether you’re seeking subtle enhancements or dramatic results, our experienced team is here to guide you every step of the way.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments designed to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial features. They are typically made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain hydration and elasticity in the skin.
Unlike wrinkle relaxers, which work by relaxing muscles, dermal fillers add volume directly beneath the skin. This makes them an excellent option for clients looking to address hollow areas, fine lines, or asymmetry.
Learn more about our dermal filler services on our Dermal Fillers page.
How Do Dermal Fillers Work?
Dermal fillers are carefully injected into targeted areas of the face using fine needles or cannulas. The hyaluronic acid in the filler binds with water molecules in the skin, adding volume and smoothing out wrinkles. The effects are immediate and can last anywhere from 6 to 18 months, depending on the type of filler and treatment area.
Common Areas Treated with Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers can address a wide range of concerns, including:
- Cheeks: Restore volume and create a lifted appearance.
- Lips: Enhance shape, add volume, and improve symmetry.
- Nasolabial Folds: Smooth out lines running from the nose to the corners of the mouth.
- Jawline: Define and sculpt the jawline for a more youthful contour.
- Under-Eyes: Reduce the appearance of dark circles and hollows.
- Chin: Improve facial proportions by enhancing chin projection.

Benefits of Dermal Fillers
1. Restores Volume
As we age, our skin loses collagen, fat, and elasticity, leading to a hollow or sunken appearance. Dermal fillers restore volume to these areas, rejuvenating your overall look.
2. Reduces Wrinkles
Dermal fillers smooth out fine lines and deeper folds, such as smile lines and marionette lines, providing a more youthful complexion.
3. Enhances Facial Features
From fuller lips to a contoured jawline, dermal fillers allow you to enhance your natural beauty and achieve your aesthetic goals.
4. Non-Invasive with No Downtime
Unlike surgical procedures, dermal fillers are minimally invasive and require no recovery time. You can return to your daily activities immediately after treatment.
5. Long-Lasting Results
With effects lasting 6–18 months, dermal fillers offer a cost-effective and long-lasting solution for facial rejuvenation.
The Science Behind Dermal Fillers
Hyaluronic acid fillers work by:
- Binding Moisture: Hyaluronic acid molecules attract and retain water, adding volume and hydration to the skin.
- Stimulating Collagen: Some fillers can stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, improving skin texture over time.
- Customisable Results: The amount of filler and injection technique can be tailored to achieve subtle or dramatic enhancements.

Combining Dermal Fillers with Other Treatments
For optimal results, dermal fillers can be combined with other cosmetic therapies offered at Heart Aesthetics Hobart, such as:
1. Wrinkle Relaxers
While dermal fillers add volume, wrinkle relaxers target dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movement. Combining these treatments creates a comprehensive anti-ageing solution.
2. Fat Reduction Treatments
For clients looking to reduce stubborn fat deposits, our Fat Reduction Treatments complement dermal fillers by sculpting the face and neck.
3. Skin Needling
Microneedling treatments with the SkinPen promote collagen production and improve skin texture, enhancing the overall results of dermal fillers. Learn more about skin needling on our Skin Needling page.
