Ageing is natural, but you don’t have to let it show more than you’d like. Dermal fillers restore lost volume, soften wrinkles, and add a natural plumpness back to areas of the face that thin out over time — without surgery or significant downtime.
At The Velvet Skin Centre, filler treatment is performed by Dr. Asma Parveen (MBBS, MD — Dermatology). Getting the result right depends heavily on the injector’s skill — done incorrectly, fillers can look asymmetric, overfilled, or lumpy. Done well, they’re subtle enough that people simply notice you look refreshed, not “done.”

Dermal fillers are soft, gel-like substances injected beneath the skin’s surface to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They work by physically filling the space beneath the treated area — unlike Botox, which works by relaxing the muscles that cause expression lines.
Fillers are commonly used to address:
The right filler and the amount used depend on the area being treated, your skin, and the result you’re hoping for — all of which Dr. Asma assesses before recommending a treatment plan.
Once injected, a filler doesn’t just sit under the skin — what happens next depends on the type used. Hyaluronic acid fillers work by binding water molecules within the treated area, which is what gives that natural, hydrated plumpness rather than a stiff or artificial look. Other filler types, like calcium hydroxylapatite or poly-L-lactic acid, take this further by gradually stimulating your own collagen production, so the treated area continues to firm up over the following weeks and months, not just on the day of treatment.
This is also why filler placement is as much about depth and technique as it is about the product itself — injected too shallow or too deep, even a good filler can look uneven. Dr. Asma selects both the filler type and the injection depth based on the specific area and result you’re after.
Your dermatologist will assess the area being treated and select the appropriate filler and technique based on your goals.
Most sessions take between 15 minutes and 1 hour, depending on the area and amount of filler used. A topical numbing cream may be applied beforehand for comfort. You can typically resume normal activities immediately afterward — the exception is autologous fat transfer, which requires about two weeks of rest.
Dermal fillers are generally safe, but they may not be suitable if you:
Dr. Asma will review your medical history at consultation to confirm you’re a good candidate. It’s also recommended to stop using anti-ageing creams containing active ingredients (like retinoids) for 2–3 weeks before treatment, as these can increase sensitivity.
Filler treatment at The Velvet Skin Centre typically costs between ₹15,000 and ₹27,000 per ml, depending on:

Filler placement is a precision skill — too much, too little, or the wrong depth can all lead to visible asymmetry, overfilling, or lumps that are noticeable from across a room. This is why the injector’s experience matters as much as the product itself.
Dr. Asma Parveen (MBBS, MD — Dermatology) personally evaluates your facial structure, skin, and goals before recommending a filler type and technique. With 14+ years of clinical experience and 5,000+ patients treated, she takes a conservative, natural-result-first approach — the goal is for people to notice you look well-rested, not that you’ve had work done.
If your primary concern is specifically your lips, under-eye hollows, or facial sagging rather than general volume loss, a more targeted treatment may serve you better than a general filler session. For lips, Lip Filler treatment covers this in more detail, for under-eye hollowing, Under-Eye Filler is the more targeted option; and for skin laxity rather than volume loss, Face Lift / Thread Lift may be the more appropriate choice — Dr. Asma will help you figure out which fits your specific concern at consultation.
Serious complications are rare when performed by an experienced dermatologist, but potential risks include bruising, swelling, and — very rarely — injection too close to a blood vessel, which can affect blood flow to the area. Permanent scarring is extremely uncommon. If you’re on blood thinners or long-term medication, discuss this with Dr. Asma beforehand. Stopping active anti-ageing creams 2–3 weeks prior is also recommended.
No. Most dermal fillers use substances that gradually absorb into the body over time. Hyaluronic acid fillers typically last 6 months to 1.5 years, depending on the area and product used. For a longer-lasting effect, occasional touch-ups are the standard approach — permanent results generally require surgical options like a facelift instead.
At The Velvet Skin Centre, pricing typically ranges from ₹15,000 to ₹27,000 per ml, depending on the filler type, brand, and amount needed. Your exact cost is confirmed at consultation.
Most patients experience only a slight stinging sensation during injection, as very fine needles are used. A numbing cream can be applied beforehand if you’d like extra comfort.
Most sessions take 15 minutes to 1 hour. You can typically return to normal activities the same day — the exception is autologous fat transfer, which requires about two weeks of rest afterward.
It’s not a question of one being better — they simply address different concerns. Fillers add volume and create a plumper look; Botox reduces the appearance of expression lines by relaxing specific muscles. Many patients benefit from a combination of both. Dr. Asma will help you decide what’s right for your specific goals at consultation.
