Hyaluronic Acid Filler in Cagliari

The first consultation: handing the patient a mirror

When a new patient comes to Centro Eudermia for a hyaluronic acid filler of the face, the first thing we assess is not which product to use but whether there are asymmetries or reasons that clinically justify the procedure, not merely aesthetic ones. We ask the patient what they dislike about their face, what they would like to change, and whether they have already had other fillers. Then we place a mirror in their hands, so they can point directly to what bothers them. Often something important emerges: changing some of the areas a patient dislikes would not actually improve the face. That is information worth clarifying before the injection, not after.

The most common mistake we try not to make: overfilling

There is one mistake we try not to make at Centro Eudermia, and which not all practitioners, incidentally, even consider a mistake: overfilling — using too much filler. In other words, injecting more product than necessary, across more areas, until you obtain a face that has lost the initial feature that distinguishes one person from another. Very often you see faces whose features all look the same — oversized cheekbones, rounded contours, "inflated" lips — that do not look natural. These are things patients ask for, but it is precisely in the preliminary consultation that we discuss the why behind certain requests and propose, where needed, a different plan.

The goal, in a word, is to protect the harmony of the face: not to add features that were not there, but to bring out the ones that are truly yours.

Why a dermatologist, and not just any doctor

"With a car, if I have a problem with the tyres I go to the tyre specialist, if I have a problem with the bodywork I go to the body shop, if I have an electrical problem I go to the auto electrician. I cannot understand why a person should treat their own body with less care than they treat their car, going to a doctor who does something else entirely."

Hyaluronic acid filler should be performed by a dermatologist, because it acts on the skin and on the structures of the face: knowing its anatomy, knowing how to manage a bruise, being able to recognise a small vascular problem in time, knowing how to choose the right product for the skin type and the area — these are all part of clinical dermatological specialisation, not of generic training. This is why, at Centro Eudermia, filler remains a specialist dermatological medical treatment, not a beauty service.

On the product side, at Centro Eudermia we choose filler brands that are long established, with documented quality assurance — Neostrata and Teoxane among others. There are no products deliberately excluded a priori, but we tend not to buy very cheap products: in this category, a low price is often a sign of poor quality of the injected material.
