Dermal filler treatments performed by Dr. Mustafa Eray Erkek are advanced, non-surgical aesthetic solutions that restore the volume and contour lost by the face over time using hyaluronic acid-based fillers. These treatments, conducted at his clinic in Kartal, Istanbul, are planned for areas such as the lips, cheeks, chin, temples, and full face, considering the natural anatomical proportions of the face. The goal is to create a proportional, youthful, and balanced profile tailored to each individual.

Filler procedures are carried out by injecting biocompatible hyaluronic acid gels into the layers of the face that require volume restoration, such as subcutaneous (under the skin) or periosteal levels. The layer selection is determined based on the application area, skin thickness, and the desired effect. This allows the injection material to integrate naturally into the tissue, resulting in long-lasting, balanced volume.

Before each treatment, Dr. Mustafa Eray Erkek conducts an analysis of the face’s golden ratio and creates a personalized milliliter dosage plan accordingly. Typically, 1–2 ml is used for lip volumization, 2–3 ml for chin contouring, and 3–4 ml for mid-face lifting. Topical anesthetic cream is applied before the procedure, and results are achieved within 20–30 minutes for a comfortable process.

The effects of the filler are immediately noticeable, and full integration into the tissue occurs within 1–2 weeks. Clinical observations show that the duration of effect ranges from 8 to 16 months. In more dynamic areas such as the lips, the duration is 8–12 months, while in more static areas like the chin and cheeks, the effect lasts 12–16 months.

Hyaluronic acid fillers provide long-lasting hydration due to their gel structure, softening fine lines and naturally reducing signs of aging. The procedure has minimal swelling and a short recovery time, allowing patients to return to daily activities quickly. Additionally, the ability to fully dissolve the filler using hyaluronidase enzyme enhances the safety of the procedure.

What is Dermal Filler Treatment and How is it Performed?

Dermal filler is an injection therapy that restores volume loss using hyaluronic acid. Dr. Mustafa Eray Erkek applies it at his clinic in Kartal, Istanbul, following detailed facial mapping and using either a cannula or needle technique. The procedure is completed in 20-30 minute sessions, preserving natural proportions. FDA-approved agents integrate with the tissue to rapidly reduce swelling.

Post-Treatment Care and Recommendations

After the procedure, makeup should be avoided for 24 hours, and sauna/exercise should be avoided for 48 hours. In case of swelling similar to a bee sting, hyaluronidase is kept available. Regular moisturizing and sun protection will enhance the longevity of the results.
Common Myth: Dermal fillers cause a “puffy face.” In reality, the layering technique ensures natural transitions and strengthens the anti-aging effect.

The effect lasts on average 8-16 months; in dynamic areas like the lips, it lasts 8-12 months, while in more stable areas, it can last 12-16 months. Metabolism, lifestyle, and the volume injected affect the longevity; maintenance fillers can extend the duration.
With expert application, risks are minimal; temporary bruising, swelling, or tenderness occur in about 5% of cases and subside within 48-72 hours. Rare complications, such as vascular occlusion, are prevented with advanced techniques; knowledge of anatomy and sterility is crucial.
The amount varies from 1-4 ml, tailored to each individual; 2-3 ml is ideal for chin symmetry correction, and 3 ml is ideal for cheek volumization. Dr. Erkek creates a lifting effect with full face fillers; nasal, cheekbone, and temporal fillers are also part of his portfolio. The procedure is postponed during pregnancy, active infections, or allergy conditions; massaging or applying heat should be avoided.
The effects are noticeable immediately after injection; swelling and slight asymmetry settle within 3-7 days, with final results appearing within one week. The lip filler applied by Dr. Erkek using his precise technique provides a balanced, hydrated look; his lip philosophy is based on the principle of "less is more" for effective results.
