Turning 40 marks a beautiful chapter in a woman’s life—one that brings wisdom, self-assurance, and a deeper appreciation for personal style. However, this stage also comes with natural changes in the skin: loss of elasticity, volume depletion, and the appearance of deeper lines.
Thanks to modern aesthetic medicine, women can now enhance their natural beauty and age on their own terms. Fillers in Dubai, when performed by an expert such as Dr. Matteo Vigo, offer a safe and effective way to restore youthfulness while maintaining a graceful, natural look.
Why Women Over 40 Choose Fillers in Dubai
1. Combat Volume Loss
From the mid-30s onward, the skin starts losing collagen, fat, and hyaluronic acid, leading to hollow cheeks, thinner lips, and more pronounced wrinkles. Fillers in Dubai help replenish this lost volume, making the face appear fresher and more vibrant.
“I always tell my patients that fillers are not about changing your identity,” says Dr. Matteo Vigo. “They are about restoring what time has gradually taken away.”
2. Smooth Out Deep Wrinkles
Dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movement can be softened with other treatments, but static wrinkles—those that remain visible even when the face is at rest—respond beautifully to dermal fillers.
For women over 40, common target areas include:
-
Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
-
Marionette lines (lines from the corners of the mouth to the chin)
-
Horizontal chin creases
3. Enhance Facial Contours
A youthful face typically has well-defined contours and natural plumpness. With age, the jawline can sag, and cheeks may appear flat. Fillers in Dubai can lift and sculpt:
-
Restoring cheek fullness
-
Defining the jawline
-
Enhancing the chin profile
Expert Insights from Dr. Matteo Vigo
As one of Dubai’s leading experts in aesthetic medicine, Dr. Matteo Vigo focuses on a “less is more” philosophy.
“Women over 40 need a subtle touch. Overfilling can make features look unnatural, but skillful enhancement brings out the best version of yourself.”
Popular Filler Treatments for Women Over 40
Lip Enhancement
While plump lips are popular among younger patients, women over 40 often seek more refined changes—such as restoring natural volume, balancing asymmetry, and defining the lip border.
Cheek Restoration
Adding volume to the mid-face not only improves cheek contour but also lifts sagging skin in the lower face.
Tear Trough Correction
Hollow under-eyes can make the face look tired. A delicate filler treatment here can rejuvenate the eye area without surgery.
Hand Rejuvenation
Hands often reveal age earlier than the face. Dermal fillers can restore smoothness and volume to the back of the hands.
Safety and Considerations for Women Over 40
Choosing the Right Filler Type
Hyaluronic acid fillers are most common because they are safe, reversible, and provide a natural look. Calcium hydroxylapatite and poly-L-lactic acid fillers may be considered for longer-lasting results.
Importance of Skilled Application
Facial anatomy changes with age, and older skin is often thinner and more delicate. This requires precise techniques, which is why Dr. Matteo Vigo stresses the importance of choosing an experienced injector.
What to Expect from the Procedure
Preparation
-
Avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications for at least 48 hours before treatment.
-
Stay well-hydrated to help the skin respond better.
-
Discuss your medical history and any medications with your doctor.
During the Procedure
The process typically takes 30–60 minutes. Most fillers contain lidocaine to minimize discomfort, and numbing cream can be applied beforehand.
Recovery
Minor swelling or bruising may appear but usually resolves within a few days. Most patients resume normal activities immediately.
Longevity of Results for Women Over 40
For most patients, fillers in Dubai last between 6–18 months, depending on the type of filler used, the area treated, and individual metabolism. Touch-ups can help maintain the results.
Cost of Fillers in Dubai
While prices vary, women over 40 should expect an investment of AED 1,200–2,500 per syringe. Dr. Vigo advises prioritizing quality over cost, as expertise and safety are key to long-lasting, natural results.
Aging Gracefully with Confidence
Aging is not something to fight—it’s something to embrace. With fillers in Dubai, women over 40 can highlight their best features and maintain a youthful glow without losing the character and beauty that come with age.
As Dr. Matteo Vigo puts it:
“You’re not trying to look 20 again—you’re showing the world the best version of yourself at 40, 50, and beyond.”
Final Thoughts
For women who want to age with elegance and confidence, fillers in Dubai offer a personalized, non-surgical solution. By choosing a skilled professional like Dr. Matteo Vigo, you can enjoy natural, tailored results that enhance—not alter—your unique beauty.
