Botox Injections
One of the most popular aesthetic treatments.
As we age, we form fine lines and wrinkles on our face, neck and body. One of the ways we can reduce these from appearing or soften them if they have already formed is by using anti-wrinkle injections. Botulinum toxin is used to temporarily relax muscles, limiting the amount of muscle contractions. This gives the skin a softer, smoother and more youthful appearance. The treatment involves tiny injections into the skin and typically lasts around 3 months before movement returns.
Botox can also be used to reduce muscle hyperactivity – for example with a gummy smile, dimpled chin or down-turned smile, for a lip flip and also into the masseters to aid jawline slimming.
Areas treated include:
– frown lines
– forehead lines
– crow’s feet (around the eyes)
– bunny lines
– smokers lines
– lip-flip
– dimpled chin/down-turned smile
– gummy smile
– masseters for jawline slimming
– nerferititi lift / platysmal neck bands
Botox is also used in the treatment of excessive sweating also known as hyperhidrosis.
This affects both men and women and can become an embarrassing problem. It is common and can affect the body or certain areas.
Most commonly it is classed as primary hyperhidrosis, however if you find that an onset of excessive sweating begins suddenly please see your GP first to excuse any underlying cause.
Otherwise I can help with the cosmetic affects of excessive sweating under the armpits with Botox injections.
I use BOTOX® branded Botulinum toxin despite it being more costly as have found this gives better results for my patients.
Soft Tissue/Dermal Fillers
Soft tissue fillers are injectable gels made from naturally occurring Hyaluronic acid. Soft tissue fillers are used to enhance beautification and restore volume loss that the ageing process has taken away. Only premium and medical grade products are used for the best effects and your safety – specifically Juvéderm® and Belotero® brands.
Lip Fillers
Fuller lips have been associated with beauty and youth. Not all of us are naturally blessed with them and although some may once have been; as we age the lips can thin out and wrinkles begin to form around the corners of the mouth.
Lip enhancement gives you more definition in the lips and regain a youthful plumpness.
The lips are injected with a soft filler to gently plump the lips and enhance your lips’ shape. Treatment typically lasts 4-8 months.
Skin Boosters
Teoxane Redensity 1
TEOSYAL® PURESENSE REDENSITY 1 is an award winning Beauty Booster made by Teoxane, designed to increase hydration, improve tissue quality and minimise lines and wrinkles.
It is an injectable treatment that contains non cross-linked Hyaluronic Acid, vitamins, minerals and amino acids. This blend of ingredients is delivered to the dermis working at a level that can’t be reached by topical skincare products and encourages the body to boost natural production of collagen and elastin – the main components that give the skin its structure, tone and glow.
It can be injected anywhere into the face and used at any age to improve tone, radiance, wrinkles and lines. 2ml is needed to treat the whole face, 1ml for specific areas of concern e.g. around the eyes or mouth.
Best results are seen with 3 treatments 3-4 weeks apart and then a single maintenance treatment every 6 months.
