ANTI-WRINKLE TREATMENTS

The leading dermal filler used by most UK practitioners is Hyaluronic Acid (HA) dermal fillers which is a natural substance that already exist in the human body which is used to provide volume and fulness to the skin. Dermal fillers are non-permanent, usually lasting 6 - 9 months.

Lip Augmentation – Size and Volume of Lips. When it comes to your lips, we know that the appearance and desired results are often very important and personal. This is why we provide a consultation prior to beginning the procedure to ensure we tailor the treatment to achieve the desired results. We have many clients who are looking to achieve a natural look with defining the lip and creating a little volume along with other clients who are looking to achieve a fuller look. Hyaluronic acid is injected into the lips in precise areas to create the desired look and achieve the perfect lip ratio. Smokers Lines – Lines extending from the lip or lip stick bleed/smokers’ lines can be treated by enhancing lip definition combined with injecting small amounts of filler into each line. Nasolabial folds (smile lines / nose to mouth lines) – Nasolabial folds are the lines that run down from the nose to the corner of the mouth. Prominent nasolabial folds and cheek lines are usually due to the loss of supporting tissue in the skin. We recommend the use of dermal filler to produce volume under the fold to smooth out their appearance. Marionette Lines – Marionette lines are the lines that run from the corners of the mouth down to the chin. These lines are usually due to the loss of underlying supporting tissue in the skin. We recommend the use of dermal filler to plump out the lines, providing the support that will make them less apparent. Cheek Enhancement – Dermal filler can be used to replace or enhance lost volume in the face. With the use of dermal filler, this can contour and lift the area depending on the results you are looking to achieve.

Dermal Filler treatment procedure – After your consultation and prior to your treatment your skin will be cleaned and anaesthetic applied. We will explain the injection procedure and product choice and confirm the areas to be treated and what we do. These carefully selected non-surgical aesthetic treatments are minimally invasive and will therefore cause you little discomfort. Dermal fillers provide subtle but incremental improvements to the quality, look and feel of your overall feeling of wellbeing over time. Each treatment takes around 15 – 30 minutes. There is no downtime and you can return to work immediately after this procedure. Hyaluronic acid dermal filler is a natural substance which already exists in the human body and is used to provide volume and fullness to the skin. This procedure is completely reversible and our practitioners are fully trained on reversal procedure if this is required.

Due to the nature of the procedure, the occurrence of swelling/redness and bruising is completely normal and differs from person to person in regards to severity. Tenderness, especially following Lip Augmentation. Noticeable swelling will subside within a few days and your lips along with any unevenness due to the swelling will settle within a week and at the very latest 10-14 days after your treatment. Other types of reactions are very rare, a small number of people have experienced localised reactions thought to be of a hypersensitivity nature. These have usually consisted of swelling at the implant site, sometimes affecting the surrounding tissues. Redness, tenderness and rarely acne-like formations have also been reported.
