How Not to Look Like a Pumpkin for Halloween – The Art of Full Face Sculpting with Dermal Fillers
When Halloween comes around, pumpkins are everywhere – carved, lit up, and round in shape. But while pumpkins are perfect for your doorstep, no one wants their face to look overly puffy or unnaturally round from poorly placed fillers.
At her clinics in South Woodford, Bishops Stortford, and Hatfield, Dr Anita Dhunna, a highly skilled medical aesthetic practitioner, specialises in natural-looking results through expert full face sculpting with FDA-approved dermal fillers and advanced products like HarmonyCA hybrid fillers.
Why Pumpkin-Like Results Happen
Unnatural or “overdone” filler results often occur when filler is placed without an understanding of facial anatomy, or when low-quality, non-regulated products are used. Over-filling certain areas – such as the cheeks or lips – can distort the face and give a rounded, bloated look rather than a refreshed appearance.
The Full Face Approach
Dr Anita Dhunna takes a holistic, artistic approach to facial aesthetics. Instead of focusing on just one area, she assesses the balance, proportions, and harmony of the face. Using advanced techniques, she can:
- Restore midface volume for youthful lift
- Define the jawline for structure
- Subtly enhance the lips in proportion to the rest of the features
- Improve skin texture and firmness with hybrid fillers like HarmonyCA, which combines hyaluronic acid with polycarboxylate
Unlike traditional fillers, HarmonyCA doesn’t just restore lost volume. Thanks to its calcium-hydroxyapatite component, it stimulates the body’s own collagen production. This means results are not only immediate but also long-lasting, as the skin continues to improve in firmness and elasticity over time.
Safety First – Why FDA-Approved Fillers Matter
Only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid fillers or CE-marked hybrid fillers should be used for treatment. These products have been rigorously tested for safety, predictability, and effectiveness. Cheap or counterfeit fillers purchased online or injected by non-medical individuals pose significant risks, from lumps and asymmetry to serious complications.
Sculpted, Not Scary
Halloween should be for dressing up, not for looking unnaturally filled. With her medical expertise and artistic eye, Dr Anita Dhunna ensures her patients achieve a beautifully sculpted, balanced, and refreshed appearance – never round, puffy, or pumpkin-like.
