Full face rejuvenation with dermal fillers

Full-Face Rejuvenation with Dermal Fillers

Full-face rejuvenation with dermal fillers is a comprehensive, non-surgical approach to restore volume, improve facial contours, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. This treatment uses injectable fillers, typically made from hyaluronic acid or similar biocompatible materials, to address multiple areas of the face, creating a harmonious and refreshed appearance.

What is Full-Face Rejuvenation?

As we age, our skin loses elasticity, and we naturally experience volume loss in areas such as the cheeks, temples, and jawline. Full-face rejuvenation addresses these changes by treating the face holistically rather than focusing on isolated areas.

This approach enhances your overall facial balance, delivering natural-looking results.

Areas Commonly Treated:

• Cheeks: Restores volume and lifts the midface.
• Nasolabial Folds (Smile Lines): Softens deep lines running from the nose to the mouth.
• Marionette Lines: Reduces lines extending from the corners of the mouth downward.
• Jawline and Chin: Defines contours and corrects sagging or a receding chin.
• Lips: Enhances volume and definition.
• Temples: Restores hollowed areas for a youthful look.
• Under-Eye Area (Tear Troughs): Reduces the appearance of dark circles or hollowness.

Benefits of Full-Face Rejuvenation:

• Achieves a more youthful and lifted appearance.
• Restores volume loss due to ageing.
• Enhances facial symmetry and balance.
• Reduces wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging.
• Provides subtle, natural-looking results with minimal downtime.

Procedure Overview:

1. Consultation: A detailed assessment of your facial structure, skin condition, and personal goals to create a tailored treatment plan.
2. Treatment: The practitioner injects small amounts of dermal filler into specific areas using a fine needle or cannula. The procedure is performed gradually to achieve balanced results.
3. Duration: A full-face rejuvenation session typically takes 60–90 minutes.

Expected Results:

• Immediate improvement in treated areas, with full effects visible within 1–2 weeks.
• Results last between 9–24 months, depending on the type of filler used and individual metabolism.

Potential Side Effects:

• Mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites (temporary).
• Rare risks include lumps or asymmetry, which can usually be corrected.

Aftercare Instructions:

• Avoid touching or massaging the treated areas for 24 hours unless instructed otherwise.
• Refrain from vigorous exercise, alcohol, or excessive heat exposure for 24–48 hours.
• Follow up with your provider if you have any concerns or require additional adjustments.

Full-face rejuvenation is a versatile and customisable treatment that enhances your natural beauty and helps you achieve a more youthful, refreshed look. For optimal results, this procedure should only be performed by a skilled and experienced medical professional follwoing a comprehensive assessment .

Fat Dissolve

Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Treatment

Aqualyx is a non-surgical fat reduction treatment designed to target stubborn fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. It uses a specially formulated solution to break down fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body over time. Aqualyx offers a safe, effective, and minimally invasive way to contour and sculpt the body without the need for surgery.

How Does Aqualyx Work?

Aqualyx contains a deoxycholic acid-based solution, a compound naturally found in the body, that breaks down fat cells. When injected into the targeted area:

1. Breakdown of Fat Cells: Aqualyx disrupts the cell membrane of fat cells, causing them to dissolve.
2. Natural Elimination: The body processes and removes the broken-down fat cells through the lymphatic system.
3. Visible Contouring: This results in a smoother, more contoured appearance in the treated area.

Areas Suitable for Aqualyx Treatment:

Aqualyx is ideal for treating localized fat deposits in areas such as:

• Chin (Double Chin): Reduces fat under the jawline for a slimmer profile.
• Upper Arms: Targets fat around the "bingo wing" area.
• Abdomen: Helps contour the belly area.
• Thighs and Hips: Reduces fat for a more sculpted silhouette.
• Flanks (Love Handles): Improves definition around the waist.
• Back (Bra Bulges): Treats small pockets of fat on the upper back.

The Treatment Process

1. Consultation: Your practitioner will assess the treatment area and discuss your goals.Not everyone is suitable for his treatment.
2. Procedure:
   • Aqualyx is injected directly into the fat layer using a fine needle or cannula.
   • The procedure typically takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
3. Number of Sessions: Most patients require 2–5 sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart for optimal results.

Expected Results

• Gradual Reduction in Fat: Results become noticeable within 3–6 weeks after treatment.
• Long-Lasting Effects: Once fat cells are removed, they do not return; however, a healthy lifestyle is essential to maintain results.
• Natural Contouring: The treated area will look smoother and more defined.

Recovery and Aftercare

• Minimal Downtime: You can resume normal activities the same day.
• Temporary Side Effects: Mild swelling, redness, or tenderness at the injection site is normal and resolves within a few days.
• Swelling to the treated areas: This swelling may last a few days
• Aftercare Instructions:
  • Avoid vigorous exercise, alcohol, or extreme heat (e.g., saunas) for 48 hours.
  • Massage the treated area if advised by your practitioner.

Is Aqualyx Right for You?

How Does CryoPen Cryotherapy Work?

The CryoPen delivers a high-pressure jet of liquid nitrous oxide directly to the targeted area. This freezes the affected tissue, causing it to break down and be naturally eliminated by the body over time. The surrounding healthy tissue is left unaffected, ensuring a safe and targeted treatment.

• Precise: Targets only the affected area without damaging surrounding skin.
• Quick: Most treatments are completed within a few minutes.
• Non-Invasive: No cutting or need for anesthesia.
• Safe: Minimal risk of scarring or infection.
• Effective: Visible improvement after one or a few treatments, depending on the lesion.

What to Expect During the Treatment

1. Consultation: Your practitioner will assess the lesion to ensure CryoPen is suitable.

• Keep the treated area clean and dry.
• Avoid scratching or picking at the area to allow natural healing.

Botulinum toxin to the lower face and neck

Lower Face Botox

Lower face Botox is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment designed to relax specific muscles in the lower face and neck, improving the appearance of common concerns such as a downturned smile, chin dimpling, neck bands, and enhancing the shape of the lips with a "lip flip." This safe and effective treatment provides subtle, natural-looking results tailored to your individual needs. Consultatin facee to face is required before any treatment is given.

What Can Lower Face Botox Treat?

1. Downturned Smile

   • Overactive muscles at the corners of the mouth can cause a downturned or "sad" appearance.
   • Botox relaxes these muscles, lifting the corners of the mouth for a more neutral or pleasant expression.

2. Dimpling Chin (Pebbled Chin)

   • Overactivity of the mentalis muscle can create a dimpled or uneven texture on the chin.
   • Botox smooths the muscle, creating a more refined and even chin appearance.

3. Neck Bands (Platysmal Bands)

   • The platysma muscle in the neck can become more prominent with age, creating visible vertical bands.
   • Botox relaxes these bands, softening their appearance and giving the neck a smoother, more youthful look.

4. Lip Flip

   • A small amount of Botox is injected into the upper lip to relax the muscle, causing the lip to subtly "flip" outward.
   • This enhances the natural shape of the lips, creating the appearance of a fuller, more defined upper lip without adding volume.

How Does Lower Face Botox Work?

Botox (botulinum toxin) works by temporarily blocking nerve signals to specific muscles. This reduces muscle activity, allowing the overlying skin to relax and smooth out while improving facial harmony.

What to Expect from the Procedure

1. Consultation: Your practitioner will assess your concerns, facial anatomy, and treatment goals to create a tailored plan.
2. Treatment: Small amounts of Botox are injected into targeted areas using a fine needle. The procedure typically takes 10–20 minutes.
3. Minimal Discomfort: Most patients experience only mild discomfort during the injections.
4. No Downtime: You can resume normal activities immediately, although strenuous exercise should be avoided for 24 hours.

Results

• When to Expect Results: Improvements typically appear within 3–7 days, with full results visible after 2 weeks.
• How Long It Lasts: Results last approximately 3–4 months, with maintenance treatments recommended to sustain the effects.

Is Lower Face Botox Right for You?

Lower face Botox is suitable for adults looking to address specific concerns in the lower face and neck without surgery. It is not recommended for those with certain medical conditions or who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Aftercare Instructions

• Avoid touching or massaging the treated area for 24 hours.
• Refrain from lying down or engaging in vigorous exercise for 4–6 hours post-treatment.
• Stay upright and avoid alcohol or excessive heat (e.g., saunas) for the rest of the day.

Why Choose Lower Face Botox?

• Non-Surgical: No need for invasive procedures or lengthy recovery.
• Subtle, Natural-Looking Results: Enhances your features while maintaining your natural expression.
• Safe and Effective: Administered by qualified professionals with extensive experience.

Lower face Botox can help you achieve a smoother, more refreshed appearance while enhancing your confidence. If you're interested in learning more about how Botox can work for you, book a consultation with your practitioner.
