Ageing is an inevitable process. Our bodies may undergo age-related changes as we become older, such as getting more wrinkles on our cheeks or losing some of our cheekbones.

However, ageing is only natural and takes place when we lose part of the subcutaneous fat that supports our skin. Our cheeks droop somewhat as a result of the centre of our faces’ skin shifting downward throughout time (thanks to our good friend, gravity). Dermal fillers can be used to lift, provide support, and smooth out wrinkles and fine lines, plus add volume to your complexion. 

If you have done your research and came to the conclusion that you want to have a dermal filler treatment, Astute Medical Centre is among the aesthetic clinics in Singapore that provides this treatment. Discover more about their service as you scroll below!
