What Are Body Fillers?
Body fillers are extra-thick, structural versions of facial fillers. Made mostly from Hyaluronic Acid (HA)—a substance your body already makes—they’re injected deep under the skin to add volume, smooth out dips, and create curves.
Popular Treatment Areas in Dubai:
- Non-surgical BBL: Lifts and volumises the buttocks.
- Calf Shaping: Achieve more defined and athletic-looking calves.
- Hip and Waist Enhancement: Creates a more prominent hourglass appearance.
- Hand Rejuvenation: Fills out thinning hands to conceal veins and tendons.
Fillers vs. Surgery: What’s the Difference?
| Body Fillers | Surgical Implants/Lifts | |
| Process | Just injections. No cutting. | Major surgery with implants or fat transfer. |
| Anesthesia | Numbing cream or local shots. | Full general anesthesia (you’re asleep). |
| Recovery | Back to normal in 3-5 days. | Weeks of downtime and limited movement. |
| Scars | None. Just tiny needle marks. | Visible surgical scars. |
| Results | Immediate, but not permanent. | Permanent, once healed. |
| Risk Level | Lower (with a skilled doctor). | Higher (surgery & anesthesia risks). |
Is this treatment suitable for you?
You may be an excellent candidate if:
- Want to see a moderate, obvious change without having surgery.
- Are at a constant, healthy weight (contouring, not weight reduction).
- Maintain reasonable expectations and recognise that it is not the same as surgery.
- Are in good overall health.
You should probably consider alternative solutions if:
- You want a big, dramatic change in size.
- Have a lot of loose, sagging skin (surgical lift may be required).
- Are seeking for a one-time, permanent solution.
Pre care:
- Avoid blood thinners and supplements: This includes aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, vitamin E, and garlic tablets (unless recommended by a doctor).
- To minimise bruising, stop drinking at least three days prior.
- Quit smoking:
Procedure:
Step 1:consultation: the doctor will analayze the skin condition and choose the filler.
Step 2: Preparing the Area (10 Minutes): our doctor will next use a surgical pen to precisely draw out the injection area for best contouring.
Step 3: Numbing for Comfort (15-20 Minutes): A powerful topical numbing lotion is applied to the specified region and covered,to ensure your comfort.
Step 4: The Sculpting Process (20-60 Minutes): The doctor will use a thin needle or a flexible, blunt-tipped tube (cannula) to administer small injections at the designated areas
After care instructions:
The below are the instructions to follow after the treatment:
- Gently place a wrapped cold pack on the area for 10-minute intervals to reduce swelling.
- Sleep on your back.
- You may resume light walking after 48 hours.
Results:
You’ll see added volume and improved contour immediately after your session. The final, settled shape and optimal results become visible within 2 to 4 weeks once any minor swelling subsides. Results typically last 1 to 2 years, after which a maintenance session can be done to preserve your new silhouette.
Body Filler Cost in Dubai:
Body filler costs in Dubai vary greatly, but estimate between $100 to $300+ USD (AED 370 – 1100+ AED) per millilitre for face fillers.
You’re charged based on how much filler is used (measured in milliliters, or ml) and the area being treated.
| Area of the Body | Typical Filler Needed | Price Range (AED) |
| Hands (Both) | 2-4 ml | 4,000 – 8,000 |
| Calves (Each) | 10-30 ml | 10,000 – 18,000 |
| Hips (Each Side) | 20-40 ml | 15,000 – 25,000 |
| Buttocks (Non-Surgical Lift) | 30-60 ml per side | 18,000 – 30,000+ |
SAFETY FIRST: How to Pick Your Clinic in Dubai
This is the most important part. Doing this wrong can lead to serious problems.
LOOK FOR THIS:
- A board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who specializes in body contouring.
- A clinic that only uses brand-name, HA-based fillers (these can be dissolved in an emergency).
- A doctor with a portfolio of their own before/after photos for body treatments.
| Time After Treatment | What to Expect & Do |
| First 24-48 Hours | Swelling, tenderness, and possible bruising at the injection sites. |
| Days 3-7 | Bruising and swelling begin to fade significantly. You can return to light daily activities and desk work. |
| Week 2 | Most visible signs of treatment are gone. |
| Weeks 3-4 | Any residual swelling resolves, revealing your final, settled results.. |
FAQs About Body Fillers Injection
How long until I see the Final Result?
You see volume right away. The final, settled, natural shape appears after 2-4 weeks as swelling goes down.
Can I mix Treatments?
Yes! People often combine fillers with fat-dissolving shots (like Aqualyx) for the waist or with Radiofrequency Skin Tightening for the best overall contour.
