Dermal Fillers

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable gels made from hyaluronic acid, a substance that occurs naturally in the body, that helps retain moisture and elasticity. In podiatry, these fillers can be used to:

· Restore lost fat padding 

· Reduce pressure and pain from footwear or standing for long hours

· Alleviate corns and calluses by adding cushioning to bony areas

Who Can Benefit from Dermal Fillers?

You may be a good candidate for dermal filler injections if you experience:

· Fat pad atrophy (loss of natural cushioning in the feet)

· Calluses or corns caused by excessive pressure

· Bony bumps or prominences leading to discomfort in shoes

What to Expect During Treatment

The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and performed in our clinic. Our podiatrist may apply a numbing agent before treatment, they will carefully inject the filler into the targeted areas along with some local anaesthetic. The process typically takes 15-30 minutes, and most patients can return to normal activities immediately. You may need a lift home as you need to wait 3-4 hours for any anaesthetic to wear off before you are insured to drive.

Results and Recovery
