Dermal Fillers Are Not Just for the Face!

As we age, we all notice that fine lines and wrinkles start to appear on our faces, the skin starts to sag a little and we may also notice that our hands, neck and chest areas start to show signs of age; but how many women think about the fact that discomfort ‘down below’ may also be a consequence of ageing?

Thankfully more and more products and devices are coming to market that can address issues and concerns in the female genital area to target a number of indications, including vaginal dryness and tissue atrophy or volume loss.

These include lasers for vaginal tightening and hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers for re-volumisation.

I spoke to Dr Kathryn Taylor Barnes, a cosmetic doctor from the Real You Clinic in Surrey who has been pioneering a ‘labial puff’ treatment during this last year.

I started by asking her, what is Desirial and what it is being used for?

Desirial comes in two formulations, there's Desirial and Desirial Plus, which is the product with more G Prime, (a measure of resistance to deformation or the hardness of the hyaluronic acid gel).
