COSMETIC INJECTABLES
The key to looking fresh and youthful in your daily life is to keep the look as natural as possible. It is natural as we age to lose the ability to produce new elastin, collagen, and hyaluronic acid in our bodies. During this period, we also experience a loss of volume in our face and lips.
You will be assessed by a skilled and experienced cosmetic doctor/nurse who will determine the kind of cosmetic injectable treatment you need based on your individual needs.
Since everyone’s body is unique, book a consultation with one of our doctors to discuss your treatment outcomes.
anti-wrinkle Injections
Professional anti-wrinkle cosmetic injections will enable you to achieve an aesthetic reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in the skin in a natural-looking way.
FAQ
Exactly how does it work?
Nerve signals are blocked between muscles and the product where they can no longer communicate with each other and the muscle cannot contract. Muscles do not contract when attached to the skin, therefore the muscle lines relax. After the product dissolves, the skin and lines return to their original pre-treatment state and the effect wears off.
What are the areas I should treat?
We are committed to our patients to discuss all available options and to help choose an appropriate treatment plan that will meet your needs.
How safe is it?
We use an anti wrinkle product studied for many decades and used for many years by physicians like ophthalmologists and neurologists. In addition to preventing migraines and treating cerebral palsy, it can also reduce excessive sweating.
Since anti wrinkle injections have not been studied on women who are pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive, these women are advised against getting injections while they are pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive.
Does it hurt?
Some patients experience a mild sting as the needle is injected into the skin. A soothing effect can be achieved if the doctor uses a numbing cream.
How soon will I see results?
Generally, you can expect to start seeing results after three weeks and be able to complete the process by six weeks.
Are there any side effects?
In general, anti wrinkle injections or muscle relaxant injections are well tolerated in most cosmetic treatments. Sometimes, patients report soreness, swelling or bruising near the injection site. In rare circumstances, complications can include infection, allergic reaction, and drooping eyelids.
Afterwards, what happens?
The majority of patients carry on with their day-to-day lives as usual. For the first 24 hours, we normally recommend avoiding alcohol and strenuous exercise and avoiding extreme temperatures such as saunas and spas. During the first 24 hours, you should avoid massaging, touching the area to avoid unintentionally spreading the product or wearing makeup.
dermal fillers
Dermal Fillers can enhance the natural beauty, add volume and structure while rejuvenating, restoring symmetry, and providing a revitalised, youthful, and natural appearance to the face.
FAQ
What are fillers?
Fillers are anti-ageing injections containing a gel-like substance, usually hyaluronic acid, to give the skin a more youthful appearance. With dermal fillers, lines and wrinkles are filled out, hollow, sunken recesses in the face are filled in, and features of the face are defined and reshaped.
Where can fillers be used?
Skin fillers are used to fill static lines on the face (which remain even when the face is relaxed) as well as for contouring the face. Treatment areas include:
- Tear troughs (eye bags)
- Cheeks
- Marionette lines (which extend from the corners of the mouth down to the chin)
- Nasolabial folds (lines either side of the nose)
- Lips
- Chin and jawline
- The backs of the hands
- Neck
How do dermal fillers work?
Fillers smooth out wrinkles and restore volume to areas of the skin where there has been a loss of volume. The purpose of dermal fillers is to replace diminished fat, collagen and elastin.
Injecting hyaluronic acid produces a plumping effect under the skin since it attracts and holds water.
What are the benefits of fillers?
Fillers can be used to reduce lines and wrinkles as well as sculpt the face with a little help from dermal fillers. Additionally, facial features like the nose, chin, and jawline can be transformed with dermal filler injections, as well as acne scars.
What are fillers made of?
Hyaluronic acid is often preferred over other filler substances due to its ability to dissolve (using the enzyme hyaluronidase) if anything goes wrong during the procedure or if the client doesn't like the results.
Hyaluronic acid is also a naturally-occurring molecule found in the skin, so it is a safe material that is well-received by the body.
Do fillers have any side effects?
A dermal filler usually has minimal side effects, which disappear soon after treatment - they usually last a few days. Swelling, redness, and minor bleeding near the injection sites are some of the more common side effects.
What’s the recovery time of fillers?
Filler treatments don't require any downtime, so you can get back to your daily routine immediately after your treatment. Any side effects you experience should disappear within a few days of your treatment.
It is best to postpone important events until redness, swelling, and bruising have subsided.
How long do dermal fillers last?
Results from hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers typically last for six to eighteen months. Individuals will differ in how quickly they metabolise the filler, so their longevity may differ from person to person.
Results can last for years with non-hyaluronic acid fillers.
lip enhancement
Lip fillers work by adding volume to the lips. They are made out of hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance in the body that attracts water to the skin, hydrating it. Fillers increases plumpness and softness. The results can be more symmetrical, filling in wrinkles and/or lines around the lips.
FAQ
How long after lip fillers can I wear lipstick?
After a treatment, your lips may feel tender, so keep the area free of make-up for one day.
Can you drink alcohol after lip fillers?
It is understandable that some people are apprehensive about allowing alcohol to pass over lips that have just been enhanced; however, alcohol does not affect the results of the procedure in any way. Doctors used to recommend not drinking for 24 hours because alcohol is thought to enlarge blood vessels, which could increase your chances of bruising. Follow this advice if you are concerned about bruising.
Is lip filler painful?
Lip fillers are a non-invasive procedure that does not involve cuts, stitches, or surgery on the lips. When having this injectable treatment, some patients will experience just a little tingling sensation while the filler is being injected. We administer a local anaesthetic in order to completely minimise any discomfort from the procedure.
How long do lip fillers last?
The average duration of a dermal filler treatment is six to eight months. A booster treatment every six months to a year is recommended for patients who want to keep their lips plump and supple throughout the year. We recommend replenishments on an annual basis for patients who want subtle results. Each patient's vision needs are unique, so we tailor these top-ups accordingly.
How to reduce swelling after lip fillers?
Some lip filler patients may experience swelling in the lip area after having the treatment performed. In addition to the amount of lip filler used, the amount of swelling can also be affected by the amount of filler used. It is a completely normal side effect of lip injections that usually shows up within two days of treatment, then diminishes and returns to normal after two weeks. If there is swelling of the lips, patients can apply ice to the lips using an ice pack or an ice cube covered in cloth. This will help ease any swelling, itching, bruising or pain that may occur as a result of the treatment.
Can you get lip fillers when pregnant?
The use of lip fillers during pregnancy is not advisable as it is with many medical cosmetic treatments. No studies have been conducted on the safety and efficacy of dermal fillers in pregnant women, so there is no hard evidence to support their safety.

skin hydrators
Skin boosters are an excellent treatment if your skin is dry, crepey, and dehydrated. Hydrators are injectable treatments which involve tiny molecules of a gel-like substance being injected under the skin. They maintain the skin's hydration by pulling and holding moisture into the gel particles, which improves skin quality and keeps it hydrated. It results in a more radiant, fuller and firmer appearance.
