Fillers
Non-surgical wrinkle and volume treatments at Contour Clinic
An agent of comblement is primarily used by Dr. Nicolaidis as part of a non-surgical treatment to remove your wrinkles and give you younger-looking skin. Dr. Nicolaidis performs the injections himself with his patients in the Montreal area.
How are dermal fillers used at Contour Clinic?
The filler is used by Dr. Nicolaidis as a treatment in itself, in order to give more volume to various parts of the face. Among the most common areas treated with this filler are the cheeks, folds and lips. So, used alone, it can give you volume to the lips, with an augmentation of the lips not only helping to remove wrinkles around your mouth but also give you plump lips!
Objective
The filler can be used as a supplement to muscle relaxant injections by filling in more pronounced wrinkles and irregularities. The most popular fillers are processed hyaluronic acids, which are normally found in the skin and are prepared in syringes of viscoelastic transparent gel. The most common areas treated include frown lines between the eyebrows, nasolabial folds (areas between the cheeks and mouth). Patients also appreciate the use of fillers to treat “puppet” lines (lines around the mouth). The filler can also be used to augment certain areas of the face, to achieve fuller lips and younger-looking cheeks. The product tends to last up to one year.

Possible complications
Although minimal, redness and some swelling may be felt after being injected and usually disappear in less than three days. Avoid the sun in the days following the treatment. This type of filler is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, or for people suffering from immune system disorders or hypersensitivity to hyaluronic acids.
