Anti-Wrinkle Injections

One of the most well-known cosmetic treatments, anti-wrinkle injections have been around for a long period of time. Botulinum toxin type A is delivered beneath the skin to reduce muscle movement, softening the appearance of wrinkles. These injections can also help tighten the jawline and soften a downturned mouth. Results are temporary, lasting approximately 3 - 4 months.

Sculptra

Sculptra strengthens and tightens the skin, lifting and repositioning it for a more youthful appearance without altering your features. It can also improve the jawline and soften accordion lines, with results lasting up to 2 years.

Filler

Dermal filler volumises and contours the face, lifting the cheeks, improving nasolabial folds, and defining the jawline and chin. It can also improve the appearance of scars and accordion lines. Results last 6 - 12 months, depending on the area treated and the patient's metabolic profile.

Profhilo

Profhilo is a collagen-boosting injectable that improves skin integrity, hydration, and overall skin quality. With ongoing treatment, it can also help improve pigmentation and vascularity. Results last 6 - 12 months.

Profhilo Structura

Profhilo Structura delivers similar results to Sculptra, offering subtle lifting and firming with a less invasive approach. It is a great option for those seeking natural-looking rejuvenation. Results last 9 - 12 months.

Rejuran

Rejuran is a popular treatment for the under-eye area, improving dark circles and hollowing, and may help minimise the appearance of eye bags. Results last up to 6 months.
