Despite the fact that most fillers for injection contouring have the same composition, the body’s reactions to the substance are different. The individual density, viscosity, and plasticity of a particular drug helps to achieve different results. It is better to entrust the choice of product to an experienced cosmetologist who knows what to expect from a particular filler. Not only American, French, German gels, but also South Korean analogues are considered popular. For example, Dermalex is called a replacement for more expensive, well-known substances.

Carrying out the procedure
Injection of Dermalex filler is performed according to a scheme pre-selected by the cosmetologist. The principle of action depends on the tasks being solved and the chosen drug. Dense gels are injected into the middle and deep layers of the skin, soft gels are injected close to the surface. The cosmetologist works with a thin needle, the size of which is recommended by the manufacturer of the specific version of Dermalex. The doctor uses classic needling of the treated area or manipulates the cannula.
Dermalax gels are completely ready for injection. This does not mean that the use of drugs is available to everyone. To perform the procedure, special knowledge and experience are required. Patients are advised to carefully choose a doctor. Additionally, you can take care of safety by monitoring compliance with sterility and compliance with the shelf life of the drug.
The gel injection procedure begins with cleansing and antiseptic disinfection of the skin. Anesthesia of areas is performed in consultation with the patient if Dermalax Deep without lidocaine is used. Injecting other options does not cause discomfort to the patient. When treating delicate areas, the cosmetologist recommends the additional use of an anesthetic.
After completing the basic steps, the cosmetologist lightly massages the area to better distribute the product throughout the tissues. The drug has good diffusion and quickly disperses in the treated area. The final stage of the procedure, which lasts 20–90 minutes, is skin antiseptication.
Stages of execution by a cosmetologist
The introduction of Dermalax fillers is carried out using a pre-selected technology. The principle of influence will depend on the task that needs to be performed.
The use of gels with a dense structure involves treating the middle and deep layers of the epidermis. Mild-acting drugs are administered exclusively close to the surface of the skin. For work, the specialist uses a thin needle, which comes complete with a syringe with the composition. The cosmetologist applies classical needling or performs manipulations with a cannula.
Before performing injection manipulations, the skin surface must be thoroughly cleaned of decorative cosmetics, sebaceous secretions and other contaminants. After this, the skin is disinfected with an antiseptic solution.
The use of painkillers is discussed with the client individually. If the pain threshold is low, an anesthetic cream or gel is applied to the face. If lidocaine is already present in the rejuvenation preparation, then there is no need for additional pain relief.

At the final stage, the surface of the skin is re-treated with an antiseptic.
In general, the procedure can take from 20 minutes to an hour and a half.
Healing period
The duration of rehabilitation depends on the drug used and the individual characteristics of the patient. In the first hours, there may be redness of the skin and the severity of the puncture sites. Swelling, bruising, and painful areas may occur for the first 2–5 days.

- physical overexertion.
Advice. It is advisable to maintain health and lead a healthy lifestyle. The result of the procedure is observed immediately and lasts 6–12 months. After leveling out the achievements, it is permissible to repeat the injection.
Minimizing the effect
It is easy to correct the results obtained from using hyaluronic acid fillers. It is enough for a cosmetologist to administer microdoses of drugs with hyaluronidase activity.

Reviews from patients and cosmetologists about Dermalax fillers
Elena, Uryupinsk, 37 years old:
Recently I started injecting hyaluronic acid into my lips, since by nature they are not very voluminous. We used Juvederm, first 0.5 ml, and then another 1 ml. When I came for the third time, the cosmetologist suggested introducing dermalax deep plus for lips, reviews of which were only positive, I agreed. The session was carried out in a standard way: pain relief, injections, and then application of Traumeel to prevent bruising. After the procedure, severe swelling appeared, my lips became relatively huge, but I even liked it that way. The swelling went away and they decreased by about 30%. There was no such reaction after Juvederm. The procedure is painful, but tolerable, the preparation is dense and gives a clearer contour than the same Juvederm. Overall, I am pleased with the result and will continue to tuck my lips with Dermalax in the future.
Margarita, 31 years old, Taganrog:
I have been planning to increase the volume of my lips for a long time. They are narrow and dry and often peel. It was scary, but not because I was afraid of pain and injections, but because I didn’t want to walk around with huge duck lips. But still I decided. We agreed with the cosmetologist that we would use the drug Dermalax. Anesthetic cream was applied. While I was lying there, the doctor opened a package with a syringe and gel in front of me and showed me a certificate. The introduction of the material during the session was very uncomfortable. I felt every puncture, as if I heard the crunch with which the needle entered my lips. At the end they gave me a mirror and I was horrified - my lips were very large, the swelling was terrible. I almost burst into tears. The cosmetologist began to calm me down and said that this was normal. I'll say right away - she was right. The swelling began to subside the very next day. After a week, my lips became perfect, the way I wanted them to be. I am very grateful to the clinic specialist, she is a great fellow. I will soon go for a repeat procedure, since the drug has dissolved a little, and I’m used to it, I want a more vivid effect. Additionally, I plan to use dermal Implant Plus of the same brand to correct my cheekbones, nasolabial fold and chin. I will only contact my cosmetologist.
Irina, 22 years old, Moscow: I didn’t like the fillers from this manufacturer. I decided to increase the volume of my lips. I listened to the advice of the cosmetologist and agreed to inject the drug from Dermalax, although I had never heard anything about it before. The result is terrible swelling, bruises and hemorrhages. I don’t know, maybe the problem is not in the gel, but in the low competence of the doctor. Then lumps of gel began to be felt in the lips, which did not go away for a year. Overall, I will never use fillers from this brand again, and I will not go to this incompetent cosmetologist.
Alena, 35 years old, Tolyatti:
Previously, among injection procedures, I only resorted to increasing lip volume with preparations based on hyaluronic acid. I used Princess compositions. Over time, I began to notice pronounced wrinkles on the forehead and in the nasolabial area. I put off going to the cosmetologist for a long time, since the procedure was not cheap, and it was quite scary. When I went to the clinic, the doctor advised me to correct wrinkles and folds with a drug from Dermalax. I had never heard of this line-up before, so I had some doubts, but, as it turned out, it was in vain. The session was quick and almost painless. The wrinkles are gone and now I look 10 years younger. I am very pleased and will continue to use fillers only from this brand.
Alexandra, cosmetologist, 7 years of professional experience:
I started using Dermalax fillers in my work relatively recently. Before this, I resorted to more well-known drugs. I learned about fillers from my colleagues at the next seminar. Many spoke extremely positively about the compositions, despite the fact that they are noticeably cheaper. My patients are happy. They get great results while saving money. Most often I enlarge my lips with such fillers and remove the nasolabial fold. Swelling persists for several days, but this phenomenon goes away on its own. I recommend.
Let's sum it up
If the doctor and patient follow all recommendations and instructions, Dermalax dermal fillers are safe and effective. According to reviews, after the filler injection procedure, swelling may be observed, but it goes away quickly. The consumption is economical, which allows you not to spend a lot of money on the procedure.

Whether to enlarge lips or not - everyone decides for themselves, but do not forget that in everything you need to observe moderation. Frequent injections can lead to irreparable damage and, instead of achieving the desired beauty, create many new problems on the face. This is what the video is about below:
Precautionary measures
The main task of the doctor conducting a preliminary conversation with a potential patient is to identify contraindications:
- pregnancy, breastfeeding period;
- severe endocrine, cardiovascular disorders, blood diseases;
- autoimmune diseases;
- serious somatic disorders;
- oncology;
- acute course of chronic, general diseases;
- allergy to the components of the drug used;
- violation of tissue integrity, dermatological problems at the site of exposure.
The procedure is not recommended after complex interventions affecting the deep layers of the skin, requiring long-term rehabilitation. It is not advisable to be exposed immediately after illness, during menstruation, or when feeling unwell. All of the above factors can cause the development of various complications:
- granulomas, compactions, seromas;
- contouring gel;
- allergic reactions (itching, rash, redness);
- severe swelling, pain;
- tissue necrosis;
- inflammatory process.
Your doctor will help you manage side effects. Trying to solve problems on your own can make the situation worse.
Consequences
Thanks to studies of Dermalax fillers, it was found that complications occur in extremely rare cases. Mild swelling and hyperemia disappear within a few days after the manipulation. If such side effects persist for more than 14 days, you must visit the specialist who administers the drug.
Among the most common complications are hyperemia, edema, hematomas, scar formation, the development of an allergic reaction, the appearance of pain, embolism, soft tissue necrosis, and inflammatory processes.
As a rule, the cause of adverse reactions in most cases is a violation of the technique of the procedure, low qualifications of the cosmetologist, or the patient’s failure to comply with the rules of care during the recovery period.

Fillers from the Dermalax line are suitable for solving the same problems. Cosmetologists note that the South Korean version has fewer side effects.
Features and Benefits
