IV stands for intravenous wherein a therapist, injects a solution of vitamins and minerals directly into the bloodstream. The vitamins and minerals bypass the digestive system and go right into your bloodstream that restores the skin’s youthful glow, stimulate boundless energy. The solution could be injected by an injection or by drips into the veins which take approximately 15-90 mins to complete the procedure. The proportion of vitamins needed for your skin and body vary from person to person. Therefore, an evaluation by an expert for expectations, needs and symptoms is important to determine the right proportion of treatment.
IV Vitamin Therapy can deliver almost all the vitamins (A, B, C, K etc.) and other minerals such as magnesium, amino acids etc. It is, in fact, more effective than oral vitamins since the fluids directly drip into the bloodstream that carries the nutrients straight to the cells than relying on the digestive tract with only a fraction of ingested fluids being delivered to the target cells. The effects of dripping these vitamins in abundance are also found to be dramatic and instantaneous.

Dermal fillers are a super popular aesthetic procedure because they treat visible signs of aging in a minimally invasive way. Why is this important to you? Because the time when you could reverse aging signs just with surgery is over. With Dermal fillers, you have the possibility to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles and restore the volume of different facial areas in just one treatment session and without significant downtime. Plus, you can enhance facial features, improve asymmetry or make your lips fuller and plumper.
Dermal fillers are a versatile treatment that can fulfill different aesthetic goals. But, first, you need to find a great doctor who will create a bespoke Dermal filler treatment plan just for you. And you will definitely meet excellent and skilled doctors at Lucia Clinic. In their hands, your Dermal filler treatment journey toward a youthful, refreshed and more appealing appearance will be safe, smooth, and exciting.
WHAT ARE DERMAL FILLERS?
Dermal filler is a gel-like substance that comes in the form of injectables and is typically made of hyaluronic acid. This powerful acid which adds volume to our skin is naturally found in our bodies, but its production slows down as we age. Dermal fillers are used to smooth wrinkles and deep-set lines, as well as to restore volume to certain areas of your face, such as around the eyes, nose, mouth, cheeks, and jawline. Once injected, hyaluronic acid binds with water and keeps the skin and surrounding tissues hydrated and moisturized, thus adding volume to the entire area and improving its overall appearance. Due to their ability to restore lost volume and provide a plumper and more youthful appearance, dermal fillers were first used to combat aging signs.
For this reason, hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers are the most common types to be found on the market and even though there are different brands and lines of fillers available, Juvederm is one of the most popular. This Dermal filler brings you superior results in reversing aging signs. Also, the results are natural-looking which is essential when having this treatment. At Lucia Clinic, you can get different Juvederm dermal fillers according to your skin concerns. For example, JUVÉDERMVOLITE™ is great for hydrating your skin and increasing its elasticity. It also smooths out your skin by triggering collagen production.
RESTYLANE dermal filler is another high-quality Dermal filler that effectively reduces fine lines and wrinkles and enhances your facial features. It also nourishes your skin and keeps it hydrated. Another great benefit of this Dermal filler is the reduction of acne scars and deep folds. It really makes your face more youthful and refreshed.
ELLANSE is an advanced biostimulating dermal filler that activates the production of collagen and improves the signs of aging. It can significantly improve the underlying structure of your skin and make it youthful and plump again. The best thing about this Dermal filler is that it provides you with long-lasting results – up to 4 years.
RADIESSE is another advanced biostimulating dermal filler that is perfect for restoring volume in your facial areas. It makes the targeted areas smooth and plump. With this Dermal filler, you can reduce wrinkles and fine lines and mildly lift your skin – that’s all thanks to boosted collagen. The results are also long-lasting because the newly built collagen can keep your skin nicely structured for up to 2 years.
WHICH AREAS CAN BE TREATED?
Apart from using dermal fillers to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, they can also be used to increase volume, change shape, or improve the appearance and symmetry of other parts of your face. Dermal fillers can be injected into the jawline or chin area to enhance them and provide more definition. They can also be used to lift and accentuate the cheeks and reduce the crow’s feet around the eyes.
Dermal fillers are especially effective in restoring volume in tear troughs or under the eye area. These areas are very delicate and can show aging signs very soon. Thin skin and dark circles can make you look tired and older than you are. With Dermal fillers, you can easily improve the overall appearance of these areas by making them plumper and smoother again.
Moreover, Dermal fillers are often used to reshape and plump the lips. In lip filler treatment, your Lucia Clinic doctor injects the filler into the soft tissue of your lips to make them fuller and better contoured. With lip fillers you can rejuvenate your lips, make them more symmetrical or increase their volume. It’s important to trust your doctor here and follow the recommendations because you don’t want to end up having overly-done lips. You should aim for natural-looking results and get just enough of Dermal fillers that will perfectly balance your entire face.
Cheeks are another facial areas that easily lose volume and elasticity. The skin starts to sag because of gravity and loss of underlying structure. Dermal fillers immediately make your cheeks more enhanced and lifted and create a better-sculpted appearance of your face.
If you are bothered by small irregularities on your nose, you can easily solve them with nose fillers. This treatment, known as liquid rhinoplasty, can enhance your nose without the need for surgery. Skilled Lucia Clinic doctors perform this procedure to improve your nose asymmetry, reduce small bumps or correct nasal tips – all without significant side effects or downtime.
One body area that is often neglected is your hands. The skin on top of your hands is delicate and can soon start to show aging signs. Dermal fillers can easily correct this by adding volume to your hands and making the skin in this area smoother and softer.
Dermal fillers can also help you get the chin or jaw of your dreams. They can fill chin dimples and creases or make your jawline nicely sculpted and more harmonious with the rest of your face.
The type of dermal filler that will be used, and the depth at which it will be injected, depends on your individual needs and the result you want to achieve. Firm dermal fillers injected deeper into the tissue are used for reshaping and adding volume, medium-firm fillers injected at medium depth are ideal for getting rid of deep lines and creases, while soft fillers which are injected into the top layer of the skin can smooth unwanted wrinkles and plump the skin.
WHEN CAN YOU EXPECT TO SEE THE RESULTS?
With hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers, the results are immediate and the effect can be seen right away. However, they need some time to settle into place and start binding with water fully, so it can sometimes take a few weeks for you to see the full effect. In case you are not satisfied with the result, dermal fillers can be easily broken down with hyaluronidase, a substance that enables the body to dissolve and metabolize them at a great speed.
HOW LONG DO DERMAL FILLERS LAST?
There are various factors that affect the amount of time dermal fillers may last. Besides the type of dermal filler used, the speed at which the body metabolizes the filler is individual. In addition, fillers can last longer if they are injected into an area that is not moved around a lot, such as the cheek area. Even though dermal fillers are usually temporary and last around a year, there are several things you can do to make them last longer. First of all, you should avoid extensive sun exposure, since sun damage increases the speed at which dermal filler breaks down. Furthermore, use topical products that contain hyaluronic acid as well as products and supplements that will help you keep your skin healthy and hydrated. Also, getting enough sleep and making sure you eat healthily and drink plenty of water will significantly improve the appearance of your skin.
ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS?
Although dermal fillers are usually well-tolerated, there are some mild to moderate side effects that can appear after the treatment, but rarely last longer than a couple of days. The most common side effects might include temporary redness and tenderness of the skin, mild bruising and swelling of the treated area, or the development of small nodules and bumps under the skin. Also, the treatment is painless and causes minimal discomfort, which makes it possible for you to resume your regular routine immediately.
Dermal fillers are the perfect choice for anyone looking to reduce the signs of aging, minimize the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and creases, tackle the loss of volume and elasticity, as well as reshape certain areas of the face. They bring you instant and gradual results without much discomfort or downtime. Dermal fillers can improve your self-esteem and help you feel good in your skin.

The Ultherapy treatment has created quite a buzz in Dubai in recent years especially with the Hollywood cult following. Environmental factors and a modern busy lifestyle make the skin dull and age rapidly, especially the face skin. Regular facial treatments and expensive creams will help, but not for the long term. Meanwhile, age makes the facial muscles weak and our skin gets saggy. Fortunately, Dubai’s latest Ultherapy skin tightening treatment knocks years off your appearance without any downtime. Ultherapy treatment is a revolutionary age-defying treatment popular in Dubai and the rest of the world.
Ultherapy has become a gold standard in skin tightening, lifting and smoothing treatments. It is the most groundbreaking innovation in non-surgical procedures. Ultherapy is a scientifically backed ultrasound energy procedure that boosts your collagen and elastin. These two important proteins are responsible for keeping your skin youthful and tight. But as your skin matures, collagen and elastin slowly disappear. That’s where Ultherapy takes center stage – it kickstarts the production of your collagen and elastin and creates a gradual and natural tightening and lifting effect.
Your Lucia Clinic skin therapist uses computer imaging to visualize the layers of your skin – this guarantees that the energy will travel into deep structural layers without harming the superficial layer. That’s one of the reasons everybody loves Ultherapy – it’s effective and doesn’t require a long downtime.
You can see the results after just one session, and have an occasional touch-up treatment to refresh the results. The results become even better with time and after 3 months, once the new collagen has replaced the old tissue, you see the amazing effects of this treatment. Your skin looks rejuvenated, lifted and tighter – just as you desired.
Why is Ultherapy special?
Ultherapy is the only non-invasive FDA-approved procedure for tightening, lifting, and toning the skin. It tightens the skin around hard-to-treat areas that are typically addressed with a surgical facelift. If you have mild to moderate sagging skin on the face, neck and eyes, Ultherapy is an ideal solution for you. Also if you are not ready for plastic surgery, Ultherapy can take years of your face in a completely non-invasive way. There are no incisions and anesthesia, just safe and precise ultrasound energy.
Another reason why Lucia clinic’s Ultherapy treatment is so effective is its two-step process. The first step is the contraction of collagen, after which you can immediately see the results – your skin is tighter and subtly lifted. The second step happens with time with neocollagenesis. Ultherapy triggers your body’s natural healing process which helps with the production of new and healthy collagen. This is what brings you natural-looking and long-lasting results. Nobody needs to know the secret of your great skin. You don’t have to worry about looking overly done or fake. Your skin gradually tightens and lifts and after 3 to 6 months you look rejuvenated and beautiful. The results are subtly but surely noticeable.
What are the key areas of Ultherapy treatment?
Whether you want to tighten a saggy jawline, smooth out wrinkles or lift droopy eyelids, Ultherapy is a perfect solution. It reduces wrinkles on your forehead, lifts and plumps your sunken cheeks and tightens your jaws and jawline. It can even tighten your neck and reduce aging signs on your decolletage. All this happens with safe and controlled ultrasound energy. Lucia clinic’s Ultherapy is your secret ally against aging and helps you look vibrant on the outside just as you feel on the inside.
How does Ultherapy feel?
Since Ultherapy is completely non-invasive, your Lucia Clinic skin therapist can simply apply numbing cream to your treatment area to make the procedure even more comfortable. You may just experience mild discomfort when the energy is delivered but it’s only temporary. That’s the sign that the collagen-building process has started. Your session can be over in 90 minutes or less – it all depends on the targeted area.
After the treatment, you may experience mild redness or swelling but it resolves very soon. You can immediately go back to work or go to a social gathering. Not requiring any downtime is what makes Ultherapy super convenient for busy people.
When can you start with Ultherapy treatment?
There are a lot of patients at Lucia Clinic who discover the benefits of Ultherapy in their 30s. Once they see the results, this advanced non-invasive procedure becomes a part of their beauty regime. But, Ultherapy is not reserved only for this age – people love it in their 70s too. It is never too late to spark up your collagen and elastin.
You can start with Ultherapy the moment you feel that your skin needs rejuvenation and tightening. You will definitely love this gold-standard skin-tightening treatment because of its natural-looking and long-lasting results – achieved without surgery or long recovery.
Can Ultherapy treatment be customized?
Yes, it can. That’s one of the key benefits of Ultherapy. We are all different and have unique skin concerns and aesthetic goals. There is no one-size-fits-all approach at Lucia Clinic. Customized treatment guarantees natural-looking and long-term results.
During a consultation with your Lucia Clinic skin therapist, you get your bespoke treatment plan that specifically addresses your issues. It can be smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines or lifting and tightening saggy skin on your face, neck or decolletage. Ultherapy is very versatile and it effectively reverses aging signs. After just one session, you look more youthful and refreshed and your facial features are enhanced. That’s all thanks to the precision of this amazing non-invasive procedure. With the right depth and temperature, Ultherapy does so much for your skin.
What do the experts say?
Dr. Radmila Lukian at Lucia Clinic Dubai believes that Ultherapy skin tightening treatment is revolutionary since it doesn’t involve any creams, fillers or toxins. Instead, it relies on the body’s own collagen-building process for natural and noticeable results. In fact, you would feel tiny amounts of energy being deposited to precise depths during the treatment. The lifting and toning will take place over two to three months as tired collagen is replaced with new, more elastic collagen. As this collagen-building process continues, further improvements can appear up to six months following the procedure. Long-term collagen production will keep your skin looking younger and smoother for up to a year.
What’s the next step?
If you are looking for a non-invasive skin-tightening and lifting treatment that gradually improves your skin, visit Lucia Clinic and find out why Ultherapy is so special.
With a bespoke treatment plan, created by Lucia Clinic’s skin experts, you will turn back the clock in a safe and effective way without the need for surgery. It’s time to experience the benefits of advanced and beloved Ultherapy treatment.
