Wrinkle & line treatment
As we age, wrinkles develop and our skin becomes less elastic, coupled with skin damage.
Anti-wrinkle treatments are used to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and lines. Typically, providing a naturally more radiant younger look, by reducing the facial wrinkles.
How does it work?
A substance is used which blocks the signals from the nerves to the facial muscles, this ‘relaxes’ them so that they can no longer contract. This helps the wrinkles to relax and soften.

The treatment can be used in a number of facial areas:
*Forehead lines
*Frown lines between the eyebrows
*Crows feet

*Sweat reduction (under arms)

Dermal Fillers FAQs
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are ‘gel-like’ substances that are effective in rejuvenating the face by plumping the skin sculpting contours, smoothing static lines and creating a healthier tone and texture to the skin.
Dermal fillers treatment can provide a non-surgical face-lifting effect to improve/enhance the facial shape.
The hyaluronic acid dermal fillers helps the skin to retain moisture and restore the lost volume.
How do dermal fillers work?
Most dermal fillers are based on hyaluronic acid, which is a sugar molecule that naturally exists in your body, which is responsible for hydrated looking skin. As we age, our hyaluronic acid levels deplete over time.
Replacing it by injecting it into the skin revitalises, and adds volume to the skin, instantly diminishing the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and giving a natural softer look.
Where can we treat?
Dermal fillers can be provided to the following:
* Naso-labial lines
*Marionette lines
*Cheek fillers
*Lip fillers
How many treatments will I need?
The results are instant, you will notice the difference straight away. Optimum results can take up to 2 weeks. After about six months, your body naturally breaks down the hyaluronic acid fillers. Top-ups once or twice a year are recommended to maintain the look.
