Toxin anti-wrinkle treatment is a safe and simple injectable treatment that allows us to hit the pause button on the visible signs of ageing.
A protein that is extracted from the bacterium Botulinum Toxin Type A (commonly known as ‘Botox’) helps to relax muscles that make our skin wrinkle. When the muscles are relaxed, the treated areas look smoother and fresher.
The most common areas treated with toxin are frown lines, forehead lines and crows feet. Depending on the age of the skin it is possible temporarily to erase wrinkles resulting in smooth, unlined skin.
Other advanced areas such as jowls, necklines and smoker lines can also be treated. In addition to treating wrinkles, it also blocks the nerve connection to sweat glands and is an amazing treatment for excessive underarm sweating (hyperhidrosis).
The perfect way to enhance your smile!
Lip filler is one of the most popular treatments we provide and whether you want a subtle or more noticeable effect, everything is possible. The lip area can completely transform your face. For younger people, it’s about getting their desired look and once your skin begins to age, lip filler can be the most amazing rejuvenating treatment, without having to give you ‘big lips’.
It is a gel-like substance which, when injected into the lips can define the shape, increase the volume and contour downturned corners. The results are visible instantly!
Dermal filler is a gel-like substance injected into the skin to plump out wrinkles, folds and hollow, sunken skin. It is mainly made up of hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally in your skin, which is why it blends harmoniously with the skin.
It is used to treat:
- Nasiolabial lines (nose to mouth)
- Marionette (corners of mouth)
- Cheek and mid face volume
- Tear troughs
- Vertical lip lines
- Lip enhancement
- Skin depressions/certain acne marks and scars
- Contour & define Jaw line
Nasolabial folds area a normal part of human anatomy ( the line that runs from nose to mouth). As people age however these folds can become deeper and may also sag. If this is to happen and the fold becomes too deep it can give your face a tired expression.
We offer some cosmetic procedures that can reduce the appearance of the nasolabial folds or eliminate them. Treatment options include:
Dermal Filler – Placed just under the skin , filler can plump up the skin reducing the appearance of the folds.
After an in depth consultation with one of our specialised practitioners you will be advised if dermal filler placed in either the nasolabial fold area directly or the upper cheek area ( to give the cheeks a lift, thus making the nasolabial folds less noticeable) will be best to achieve your desired result.
Good to note: Fillers will not make the folds disappear, but they can make them less pronounced. They can also be used to help nearby skin look fuller and more youthful.
Marionette lines are the lines that run from the corners of the mouth vertically downwards towards the chin. These lines commonly appear as people age and are caused by repetitive movement of the mouth coupled by the loss of fat and skin elasticity that occur naturally as part of the ageing process. This tends to give the mouth a downturned look, and make people look sad, tired or older than they are.
Treatments for this area will be determined via an in depth consultation with your clinician however may include one or a combination of these treatments:
Dermal Filler – Used to restore the skin to its former state by filling out the area of lost volume.
Toxin – Relaxing the activity of these muscles preventing lines getting worse, however does not restore volume loss.
Over time we may start to see lines from the border of the lips, particularly the upper lip, often extending up vertically. Quite often referred to as smokers lines, despite these lines being given this name and common thinking that this is the main factor, these lines are also due to volume loss with age and the repetitive pursing of the lips. Smoking however is known to be a contributory factor.
Treatments for this area will be determined via an in depth consultation with your clinician. however may include one, or a combination of the treatments listed below.
Treatment options:
Dermal fillers can be placed directly into the problematic lines, the border of the lip or both.
Botulinum toxin can halt the repetitive muscle action contributing to these lines.
Sublative skin rejuvenation laser treatment uses Fractionated Radio Frequency Energies to deliver an effective but controlled resurfacing treatment to further minimise lines and wrinkles.
Skin depressions are often caused by old acne scarring and can come in many shapes or forms.
Dermal filler along with a specifically tailored skin care plan can significantly reduce the appearance or potentially get rid of certain types of skin depressions .
Other options may include:
- Microdermabrasion
- Laser / light therapy
- Peels
- Laser resurfacing
Due to weakening of the orbital in the lower eye area, hollows can form known as tear troughs. This hollowing can also emphasise existing dark circles.
Following a comprehensive consultation and assessment tear troughs can be treated using dermal filler.
The Dermal Filler is placed just under the skin. The filler can plump up the skin reducing the appearance of the hollows.
It is natural as we age to experience volume loss and skin elasticity . Losing volume/fat from our mid face/cheek region is a commonly occurring problem. Replacing this volume with dermal filler can add youthful plumpness back to the skin.
Cheekbone contouring can help define the cheekbone area giving a more chiseled look. Clients often find after having this treatment they need to use less make up skills to contour the cheekbone.
We find this treatment popular with both men and women.
Jawline contouring/enhancement is another popular treatment with both our male & female clients. Dermal filler is placed along the jawline to create a more defined, sharper contoured look which can alter the appearance of the face, neck and sagging jowl area.
Chin augmentation can compliment the above treatment and will help to redefine and balance facial profile.
Our Nefertiti lift treatment using botulinum toxin can help improve and lessen the appearance of neckbands and Jowls. Multiple injections are carefully placed in specific muscle regions; which result in a smoother, tighter, more lifted youthful appearance.
Treatments for this area will be determined via an in depth consultation with your clinician.
Profhilo is a new rejuvenating injectable treatment that is taking the aesthetic world by storm.
It is a new type of Hyaluronic Acid skin remodelling treatment that will give visible results in just 2 visits.
This revolutionary treatment stimulates 4 different types of collagen and elastin due to the slow release of hyaluronic acid, and it is this stimulation that results in significant improvement of tissue quality.
It is the first of its kind that works by spreading into the skin tissue to improve elasticity and tightening. Thus creating a lifting and tightening effect while improving the appearance of the skin at the same time.
It is commonly used in the area between the cheeks and chin to create a tighter lifted appearance of the face and jowls.
Advanced areas that can be treated with Profhilo are the Arms, Stomach, Neck and Hands where we have found this to rejuvenate and improve the skin tone and texture.
These injections are primarily composed of hyaluronic acid which balances the nutritional environment of your skin, restoring hydration and bringing long-lasting improvements to skin quality and condition. It is suitable to be used on the face, lip area, decolletage and back of hands.
