The Best Age for Dermal Fillers

Is It Too Early or Too Late for Fillers? Age Specific Advice

Dermal fillers are among the most popular non-surgical aesthetic treatments. Whether you are looking to enhance your natural features or soften the signs of ageing, fillers offer a versatile and effective solution at any age.

At our clinic, DK Klinik in beautiful Antalya, we welcome patients of all ages, from those in their 20s seeking subtle enhancements to those in their 50s and beyond aiming to restore volume and freshness.

Everyone has their own reasons for choosing fillers, and our mission is to deliver personalised, natural-looking results.

Each patient will have different goals, and the results will differ according to age, hence we do not ‘a one-size-fits-all approach’.

We listen carefully to our patients, advise, and tailor every treatment to ensure you leave feeling confident, refreshed, and happy with the results.

At our clinic one of the most frequent questions, we are asked is ‘Am I too young or too old for fillers’?

In reality, the answer is not down to how old you are. It is about choosing the correct filler for the area you want treating.

We also ensure our filler is placed by a member of our highly trained staff using the correct technique. Whether you’re looking to define your features or restore volume that we lose as we age, filler treatments that are tailored to suit your individual needs will give the best results.

Below is our age-specific advice to help you decide when you may be ready for fillers. Also, look at our pricing and how it compares against clinics in the UK and across Europe.

Whether you are just starting to explore aesthetic treatments or considering a glow up this guidance will help you. For further support please contact us directly.

In Your 20s: Subtle Enhancements and Prevention

In your 20s, dermal fillers are all about enhancement, not correction. Signs of ageing are usually minimal at this stage fillers are often used to subtly define and boost natural features.

Popular treatments are fuller lips, sculpted cheekbones, or a more balanced profile. It’s the perfect time to explore subtle tweaks that highlight your natural beauty without being too obvious.

Our most common treatments in this age range include:

  1. Lip filler for added volume or symmetry.
  2. Chin and jawline sculpting
  3. Tear trough (under-eye) fillers to reduce a tired appearance.
  4. Preventative filler used to slow down any early collagen loss.

Our most in-demand procedure for this age group is lip filler.

Our price:
Lip Filler (1 ml) – starting at 7,500 TL (This is the current price as of April 2025)
Approximate cost in £: £190 or €220

Compared to:
UK average – £300 to £450
EU average – €350 to €500.

In Your 30s: Early Volume Loss and First Signs of Ageing

The first indications of ageing appear in your 30s. You start seeing slight changes as collagen production declines. It could be some hollowness beneath the eyes, less elevated cheekbones, or small wrinkles developing, especially around the lips.

Although these changes are normal, they can affect your confidence. Dermal fillers can help as they offer a slight, refresh that restores any lost volume and maintains your naturally young appearance.

Common treatments at this age include:

  1. Cheek filler for a subtle lift
  2. Lip volume restoration.
  3. Nasolabial fold softening
  4. Under-eye fillers to address early signs of fatigue.

Our Price:
Under-Eye Filler (1 ml) – starting at 9,500 TL (This is the current price as of April 2025)
Approximate cost: £240 or €275

Compared to:
UK average – £450 to £600
EU average – €500 to €700.

Your 30s are the perfect time to start restoring lost volume and ensuring your skins structure is maintained. Dermal fillers can maintain youthful contours and slow the visible signs of ageing.

In Your 40s: Rejuvenation and Structure

By the time you reach your 40s, ageing on the face becomes more noticeable, especially in the mid and lower face. Treatments win this age range focus on restoring youthful proportions that have diminished including:

  1. Cheek and temple fillers for lift
  2. Jawline contouring to produce lift and definition.
  3. Smoothing nasolabial folds and marionette lines
  4. Subtle lip definition and rejuvenation as our lips get thinner as we age.

A multi-point approach is often most effective in this age group as it is all about balancing features and helping soften deeper folds without looking overfilled.

An ideal outcome at this age is to look rested, well-balanced, and refreshed.

In Your 50s and 60s: Advanced Rejuvenation and Natural Lifting

In this age range, dermal fillers go beyond subtle tweaks, they become a powerful tool for advanced rejuvenation and natural-looking lifting.

From our 50’s we have deeper volume loss which changes bone structure and causes reduced skin elasticity.

This can affect your facial contours.

At DK Klinik, we take a highly personalised approach, carefully assessing factors like bone resorption, skin quality, and volume shifts around the temples, cheeks, and jawline.

The goal?

To restore balance, support your features, and help you look refreshed and vibrant but never overdone.

Popular requests include:

  1. Full-face rejuvenation plans
  2. Lifting cheeks and softening jowls
  3. Smoothing perioral lines (lipstick lines)
  4. Under-eye and tear trough correction

At this stage in life, it is worth noting that dermal fillers can deliver excellent, natural results when combined with treatments like threads, PRP, or mesotherapy.

You will receive advice on these other treatments during your consultation if appropriate for you.
