Replace Volume & Enhance The Cheeks With Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby,Mansfield & Chesterfield

High cheekbones are a sign of youth and beauty, but as we age the cheeks can start to lose volume, and though loose skin often gets the blame for facial ageing, it's the loss of volume that's really the main cause.

The structure of our face changes as we grow older, not just the skin's quality but also the underlying support, including the bones, muscles and the fat. The face can begin to shrink in some places which makes the fat and muscle become thinner and more elastic, and gravity will cause fat to slide downwards, leading to jowls and nasolabial lines from the corner of the nose to the corner of the mouth.


People have different face shapes, some have flat cheeks, others have high cheekbones or maybe they might have apple cheeks. If someone's said to have a baby face they will typically have fuller cheeks, which can make them look younger than others of a similar age. Genetics can decide the shape of the cheeks, as well as bone structure, muscle and fat distribution. The reason some people have full, defined apple cheeks and others have cheeks that are flat is down to gravity. It's a pad of fat under the cheeks which causes the fullness, and it's this that tends to slide lower down the face as we get older.

Hollows in the cheeks are caused by loss of fat from beneath the skin, which on a more mature face can look very ageing. Cheek enhancement by a cosmetic practitioner can restore the fullness using dermal fillers. A subtle enhancing of your cheeks can create the kind of bone structure which we all want to show off.

Benefits of cheek filler injections:

* Treatment uses safe market-leading dermal fillers
* Free consultation with a practitioner who is highly trained in aesthetic facial treatments
* Quick treatment time and immediate results
* Virtually pain-free treatment, as a topical anaesthetic numbs the area being treated
* Minimal bruising and down time
* Excellent after care treatment


Many people think that high cheekbones are a very attractive facial feature and adding volume with dermal filler can give the face a natural-looking symmetry, balance, and a more feminine appearance. Cheek augmentation can enhance your facial contours and balance your features. Dermal fillers can also reshape the face, reducing signs of ageing and by adding volume to the cheeks it will give the face a natural-looking symmetry, and a youthful balance.

Botox For Subtle Anti-Ageing Treatments - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

As we mature, wrinkles and lines might start to appear around the forehead, creating frown lines between the brows which can make us look overly serious or angry. These signs of ageing can easily be treated with injections of botox, which is a reputable cosmetic procedure which visibly reduces lines and wrinkles or removes them completely. Botox injections are a fast cosmetic treatment where the results begin to show after a few days and gradually improve within two weeks.

It's advisable that you get botox, or any other injectable treatments done by qualified health care professionals, such as doctors, dentists or nurses, as they have had the correct training and use only reputable and safe products. Do your research and check out where you're having your botox procedure, whether that's checking it out online, on Internet forums or by word of mouth.


  • Botox has lots of benefits:
  • Speed - Botox treatment usually takes around ten to twenty minutes and the results might be noticeable immediately after the treatment, although it will take a couple of days to settle down and improve.
  • Price - The cost of botox is less expensive than plastic surgery treatments which cost considerably more.
  • Minimally invasive - Botox injections are less invasive than other anti-ageing treatments such as face lifts or brow lifts.
  • Minimal side effects - Side effects associated with botox such as redness, itching or bruising occur very occasionally, but these are temporary.
Facial expressions that repeatedly use the same muscles, will eventually leave crows feet, frown lines and forehead creases upon the skin. Botox injections will temporarily weaken the muscles that help to create your facial expressions, and lessening this muscle activity will not only soften the fine lines and wrinkles, but it will also affect the expressions you use on your face. It's a temporary treatment lasting around four months and will need regular top-up injections to keep up the results.

Botox is an ideal treatment for those who want subtle, non-surgical, anti-ageing treatments. After applying a topical aesthetic to the skin to make sure the procedure is as comfortable as possible, the botox is then administered into the specific targeted areas, reducing lines and the halting further wrinkles from beginning.


The results of botox should look subtle, and a fully trained practitioner will carefully administer, technically precise injections to give you a fresh and healthy appearance and not a startled and expressionless look. This results in a naturally smooth and healthy face, free from wrinkles. The effects after a botox treatment are not completely immediate, it starts to work within days, with the greatest effect seen around two weeks later.

Replace Volume on Nasolabial Folds with Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

There's no part of the body that's more susceptible to the effects of ageing than the face. Some people think lines and wrinkles are a sign of character, while others want to turn the clock back and regain their youthful look. Luckily we can rejuvenate the face by undergoing cosmetic procedures, using minimally invasive injectable treatments.

Nasolabial folds are the indentation lines on either side of the mouth that start from the edge of the nose to the outer corners of the mouth. These lines become more prominent when we smile and laugh, and unfortunately, over time these expressions create permanent and unwanted smile lines. Nasolabial folds develop because our facial muscles get weaker as we get older, and though some people feel they are a natural part of ageing, many others don't like them.


Both men and women start to notice nasolabial lines as they age and this happens when we lose volume in the cheeks and upper face. The area starts to sag, causing the fold of the cheek into the nose area. We can effectively use dermal fillers on male and female faces to replace volume and structure to the ageing face in the cheek and nasolabial region.

Nasolabial folds become more noticeable due to a variety of factors, including:
  • Sun exposure, which damages the skin, causing wrinkles and changes in texture
  • Loss of collagen with age, making the skin weaker and thinner
  • Loss of fat, which can make the cheeks and nearby regions look saggy
The deepening of nasolabial folds are a common concern that affects many people and they occur when gravity pulls down the fat and other soft tissue that usually sits high on your cheeks, Gradually this begins to create a wrinkle, crease or fold, and they generally become more pronounced as a person gets older.


Dermal fillers are one of the most effective cosmetic treatments used to restore the loss of volume in the face. Dermal fillers work together with the remaining collagen and elastin in the body, to replace the volume that's lost through ageing, as well as smoothing out the area being treated. The collagen, elastin and proteins that keep the skin looking plump and youthful begins to drop from the age of twenty-five, and it's when these levels decrease when you start noticing the signs of ageing.

Dermal fillers can successfully replace volume in the face, smoothing out the creases, folds and wrinkles. Fillers are a non-invasive, cost-effective alternative to invasive cosmetic surgery for replacing the volume that's been lost through facial ageing. The results achieved by using dermal fillers for the nasolabial folds are stunning and very natural looking.

Tear Troughs - Fill In Eye Hollows With Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Fresh looking eyes are a big asset to our overall facial appearance, we want to make a good first impression when we meet someone, we don't want them to only notice how tired and drawn we look. As we get older our face changes, and we begin to notice things like loss of volume and the skin getting thinner, and this, along with a natural decrease in fatty tissue and a loss of skin elasticity will cause the area beneath the eye to become puffy and shadowy.

The natural depression that follows the curve of the eye socket, from the nose around to the underside of the eye is known as the tear trough, because that’s where the tears gather. Getting dark circles beneath the eyes are a common problem as we age, and they can make us look weary. As well as ageing; smoking, the environment and stress can also contribute to shadows and eye bags, making them look worse.


When we're young, distribution of fat in our face is even, with some fat pockets plumping up the cheeks, forehead, temples and around the eyes and the mouth. As we get older, we lose volume as the fat shifts downward, making the features that were once rounded start to sink and become gaunt. This means that other parts of the face gain some fat, which tends to settle under the chin and around the jowls in the neck.

The skin around the eyes is very thin and we can see the underlying capillaries much easier compared to other parts of the face, making any diminished circulation, puffiness or swelling much more noticeable. Replacing volume in the under eye area can reshape the entire face and dermal fillers are now regularly used to fill in the hollows. Filling in these depressions can take away the tired look on your face and lighten the dark circles around the eyes.

Tear trough treatment will:
  • Banish dark circles and bags from under the eye
  • Ease wrinkles and lines
  • Add volume to the under-eye area
  • Get instant results that will last around 6-8 months
  • Leave you feeling and looking more youthful


Tear trough treatment using dermal fillers is a non-surgical procedure that can restore your looks instantly. The filler gets precisely injected into the skin using very fine needles, re-creating the plump, firm skin that your under eye area used to have. A good cosmetic doctor with experience of injecting dermal fillers will have a trained eye for what looks good and what will suit your face. It's important to avoid an overdone and unnatural look, aiming instead for natural-looking results to make you look younger and more refreshed.

Improve The Complexion With Skin Needling Treatment - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Even with great genes and a naturally young-looking face, ageing is inevitable. We can either simply embrace our age and how we look, or we might prefer to find an alternative way to revitalise our ageing skin, without turning to invasive cosmetic surgery.

Sometimes when we look closely in the mirror, we might feel that our face is starting to look a bit tired. If we begin feeling self-conscious about the acne scars on our skin, or maybe sun-damaged skin makes us feel we look older than we are, then skin needling is a treatment which will stimulate skin renewal, helping to freshen the skin, make it firmer and look younger.


The skin needling instrument rolls across the skin, puncturing the outermost layers of the skin to create tiny pin prick injuries which are not visible to the naked eye. This stimulates new collagen deposition and regenerates new, healthy skin cells. The wounds will close within an hour.

It's a safe and precise cosmetic procedure, and it's one of the few cosmetic treatments that's suitable for treating all skin types, including ethnic skin. The treatment is less invasive than other skin treatments, and doesn't need the removal of the epidermis, and this results in a much shorter healing time.

Skin needling, also known as dermaroller therapy, activates production of new collagen and fibroblast formation, which helps to reduce lines and wrinkles and can improve the texture of the skin. The skin's natural healing process helps to restore a smoother, clearer complexion and it can also help improve many types of scarring.

Skin needling can help to enhance many facial imperfections. It can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores and mild acne and chicken pox scars. The treatment can correct damage from the sun and lighten pigmentation marks and is great for skin that lacks firmness and elasticity. Skin needling can also rectify pregnancy and weight-loss stretch marks and cellulite.


* The procedure time takes up to seventy-five minutes
* We can apply topical anaesthetic cream, if you need it
* Downtime is between one and five days
* The best results are noticeable after two to three months
* The results will last from nine to twelve months
* You'll need a course of four to six treatments

Skin needling has many benefits, it stimulates collagen and elastin and can repair, rejuvenate and plump up the skin. The treatment can create smoother, brighter, healthier, younger-looking skin, and since the needling treatment does not remove layers of skin with chemicals or lasers, it's generally safe for all skin types, even darker skin.

An Eyebrow Lift Using Botox Injections - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

When we decide we need to combat signs of ageing, particularly wrinkles, there's no treatment more popular than Botox, but we can also use Botox injections to make changes to some facial features such as the eyebrows. Most of us want to look as good as we can, and a small amount of Botox can enhance our appearance by softening the signs of ageing, it can lift your brow while still making your face look natural. A highly arched eyebrow is a classic sign of youthful beauty.

One sign of facial ageing is the eyebrows, because their shape changes over time they can get a hooded look. A Botox brow lift involves injecting Botox into the muscles, into specific areas of the face. Muscle movement happens through the pushing and pulling of different muscles, and this is something that can easily be altered slightly to create natural looking eyebrows with a high arch.


As you get older your brow may drop or sag, but Botox treatments will allow you to lift the brow, giving your face a younger look and making you look less tired. A brow lift is a Botox injection treatment that can raise the skin tissues around the eyes and eyebrows, to raise the natural eyebrow arch. This treatment can also make the eyes look wider, resulting in a more youthful look. It's recommended that brow lifts are more suited to those with mild to moderate brow heaviness, due to low-hanging eyebrows or naturally drooping eyelids.

The Botox brow lift, or chemical lift, is a popular procedure for those who don't want to undergo invasive surgery. The treatment is ideal for all skin types, and those who have naturally drooping eyelids and low-hanging eyebrows may find it particularly effective. Injecting Botox into the brow will literally lift the skin tissues above and around the eyebrows, resulting in the natural eyebrow arch raising a few millimetres higher.

Botox is a non-surgical treatment, it has many benefits:
  • A safe, effective, tried and tested product
  • It's a relatively affordable cosmetic procedure
  • Treatment needs no downtime
  • When combined with fillers, it can give your whole face a more youthful, balanced look
  • Botox can treat chronic migraines, excessive underarm sweating and other conditions
  • Designed to give attractive, natural and understated results

Botox used in tandem with other injectable treatments can fully rejuvenate the entire face, reducing the wrinkles, plumping up the lips and replacing volume in the cheeks, which will all work together to soften the effects of ageing.
