Dermal Filler to Replace Lost Volume - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Our skin is one of our best assets when it comes to beauty. A healthy firm skin, equals a younger-looking appearance and when we're young our skin is more elastic and resilient, which is mostly thanks to collagen. Collagen keeps the skin intact and hydrated, which makes it elastic, but as we age the skin weakens and loses its elasticity. This affects your facial expressions and you'll find that the skin will sag, causing it to develop lines and wrinkles.

There are ways we can help our skin to look good:

• Keeping up a good skin care routine
• Don't use soap on the face
• Wash your face twice a day, at morning and night, using warm water and a mild facial cleanser
• Always moisturise after cleansing, as it will hydrate the skin
• Good facial exfoliation is an essential part of any skin routine as it will remove dead skin cells
• Use sunscreen everyday

The most visible signs of ageing on the face is because of volume loss. When facial tissues lose volume, the cheeks start to look hollow, we get tear troughs under the eyes and lines can become etched around the nose and mouth. As we mature, we naturally lose subcutaneous fat in our faces, making the smile lines, frown lines and crow's-feet become more obvious, as the facial muscles are working closer to the skin's surface.

Dermal fillers work by boosting the skin's own supply of hyaluronic acid and they revitalise and add volume to the skin, instantly diminishing the lines and wrinkles and giving a softer natural look. Dermal fillers are a soft injectable gel, consisting of hyaluronic acid which is tissue-friendly and closely resembles the hyaluronic acid that exists naturally in the body. It's long-lasting but not permanent.

Dermal fillers are ideal to:

• Diminish vertical lines around the lips
• Fill in hollow tear troughs around the eyes
• Enhance and restore lost volume to sunken cheeks
• Plump up and enhance the lips
• Soften facial lines and wrinkles
• Plump out facial creases

The filler gets injected into the skin in tiny amounts, with a very fine needle. The gel filler produces volume under the skin, lifting up the wrinkles or folds, which results in smooth looking skin. It's a quick, easy treatment and the actual procedure takes between twenty minutes to an hour, depending on the treatment required. Straight after your treatment you'll have slight redness, mild swelling and tenderness, but these effects are temporary.

Define the Chin & Jaw Line with Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Loss of definition along the jaw line is usually one of the first signs of ageing that people notice about themselves. Many things can make the jowls start to sag, such as gaining weight, losing weight and genetics, but usually it's the loss of skin tone and the effects of gravity that are most to blame. It might take longer for jowls to become noticeable for those with a fuller face, but if your face is thin, then they may start to show earlier. When we age we lose definition in the jaw, but the good news is that you are now able to correct the sagging jowls and regain a beautifully defined jaw line.

Facial fillers can help to recapture the look of a strong jaw that's beginning to sag, but carefully placed filler injections can create a more prominent desired look for those with a less-defined jaw line, Giving strength to the chin and jaw with dermal fillers can also help to prevent premature ageing of the lower face, as the firmer jaw line can give better support to the weight of the cheek. Filler treatments can provide a non-invasive, non-surgical way to get the strong jaw you want, restoring definition to the chin and jaw line, without any invasive surgery.

Injecting dermal filler into the lower edge of the jaw can:

• Improve the facial profile
• Create a more prominent and defined chin
• Make the face seem younger
• Restore volume to sagging jowls
• Create a straighter, firmer jaw line

One glance at somebody's facial profile will instantly show you a weak chin and undefined jaw line. Your profile doesn't matter that much to you when you're looking straight into the mirror, but your profile is there for everyone else to see, when they are looking at your face from different angles. While wrinkles may age you, it's actually the shape of your face that's making you look older but it's very easy to improve these issues by having dermal filler treatment.

Dermal filler can easily be used on the chin, creating a more balanced profile. Fillers can re-sculpt the lower face and restore volume, creating a youthful facial contour. A strong chin adds definition to your face, enhances your appearance and brings a balance to your facial features. If the sagging is mild to moderate, injectable treatments such as dermal filler can easily correct the problem.

Anti-Ageing Treatments to Get Youthful Looks - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

In recent times we have begun to notice women and men arriving at cosmetic clinics clutching computer-enhanced photographs and asking for cosmetic treatments to recreate this artificially perfected image. Phone cameras have a great number of filters and this has also increased the demand for cosmetic procedures, as clients try to copy their filtered photograph images, even bringing their altered images to the practitioner, as an example of what they want to look like.

Most of the people wanting these cosmetic treatments are not old with time-worn faces, in fact most of them are only in their early twenties. When young women see the perfect images of celebrities on posters and in magazines it forces them to look closely at their own image with a more self-critical eye than ever before. Non-surgical nose jobs, cheek fillers, lip enhancements and botox are some of the treatments of choice when trying to emulate the enhanced photographs.

Sometimes they decide to have facial enhancing treatments to increase their self-confidence, sometimes because celebrities are doing it, or sometimes because of peer pressure. 

There are now a great number of non-surgical cosmetic procedures:

• Botox - to reduce moderate to severe fine lines and wrinkles, frown lines and crow's-feet.
• Laser treatments - rejuvenate the skin's surface.
• Chemical peels - these will improve the texture and tone of the skin.
• Radiofrequency therapies - for skin tightening and cellulite reduction.
• PDO thread lifts - can deliver essentially a non-surgical facelift, using injections placed in strategic places.
• Dermal fillers - for non-surgical nose jobs, lip enhancement, adding volume and lifting cheeks and much more.
• Microdermabrasion treatments - a non-surgical procedure that resurfaces the skin. It helps to remove dead skin cells on the skin's surface.

A lot of young people aren't looking for subtle results, and we're seeing suspiciously full lips, super defined cheekbones and skin that's smooth and tight. While we can't escape people taking endless photographs of themselves and using filters and editing to perfect the images, we really shouldn't let these images to influence us into having extreme treatments. 

Dermal fillers aren't just for people who are looking to restore their youth, but also to enhance the face. Botox can help us look our best without making our face look like a frozen mask, dermal filler in our cheeks will give us defined cheekbones and restore lost volume under the eyes, and we can enhance and define the lips, without inflating them to extreme proportions.

We all want to look the very best we can, but we don't have to go to extremes to achieve it.

Get your Best Body Shape with Vaser Lipo - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

It's very easy to grow up with an unrealistic sense of what we think the perfect body should look like. In our childhood, we are given toys like Barbie and action figure dolls to play with, and in our teenage years most of the people we see in music videos, on reality television shows and in movies, all seem to have perfect faces and bodies. Today's society tries to dictate what kind of body image we should strive for, showing images of perfect bodies on television, in films and in newspaper and magazines.

The body shape that is now classed as 'the body to strive for', hasn't always been what's considered as the ideal body shape. We've seen body shapes change, ranging from a large bust and a wasp-waist, the flat chested boyish figure, the hour-glass tiny waist and exaggerated hips, lean and athletic or curvy with bigger breasts; the idea of the ideal body shape has changed many times over the years. Today, we are back with the curvaceous shape with a shapely bottom, substantial bust and a flat toned tummy.

We all have different builds, body shapes and sizes, making it impossible for us all to look the same and whatever the current body shape trend might be, there will only be a certain amount of people who will match up to it.

• Pear - those with a pear shape have small upper bodies and bigger lower bodies. The hips are a bit wider than the shoulders and weight tends to settle below the waist.
• Hourglass - This shape has a well-proportioned upper and lower body, with a narrow waist. Hourglass women are more inclined to gain weight all over the body and in particular the chest and hips area.
• Apple - Women with apple shapes have slim hips, a large chest and stomach and they are bigger on the top half of their bodies than the lower half.
• Straight/ Ruler - Ruler shaped women have no significant differences between the size of their hips, waist and shoulders. Any weight gain is on their stomach and bottom.

Even though we keep the fundamental shape we were born with, a healthy diet and regular exercise are still the key points to losing any excess body fat and maintaining good health. If any fat remains after this you could consider having vaser lipo treatment, which will take away stubborn pockets of fat that you just can't get rid of. You mightn't have the shape that you would like, but vaser lipo could help you shape and contour your body into a shape that you will love.

Restore Ageing Lips with Dermal Filler at Selston Cosmetic Clinic - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Some people have lips that are naturally thin or they're sagging and thinning due to ageing. As we get older, our lips will develop fine lines and wrinkles and naturally lose their shape and size. We all aspire to have lips that are perfectly sculptured and sensuous, with enough substance and volume to make them look youthful.

A lip enhancement is a cosmetic procedure that will add more volume, substance and definition to the lips. A lip filler procedure can not only enhance your lips, but it can easily improve your overall appearance by balancing and restoring your face perfectly, with full and flattering lips.

The thought of having dermal fillers injected into the lips can sometimes make people nervous, but our fully trained, experienced practitioner, Dr Bassi, who has a vast experience in injectable treatments, will discuss the process and what you want at your consultation. His ultimate aim is to make sure that all of his clients leave the clinic looking and feeling their very best.

Dermal fillers can improve the lips by adding shape, structure and volume. They can compensate for the ageing process by smoothing wrinkles and correcting the smoker's lines around the mouth. Lip augmentation treatment can give your lips the outline and definition that time has destroyed, enhancing thin, ageing or asymmetrical lips, by adding volume, definition, lifting the corners of the mouth and reducing smoker's lines.

Slight lip enhancement for the mature lady, to suit her face and age. 

Dermal fillers are ideal for lip plumping as:

• The fillers are uniquely formulated to give your lips fullness and definition
• The injections are completely controlled, and you can decide if you want a subtle, dramatic, or in-between look
• Fillers provide natural looking results with just one treatment
• Lip injections allow you to correct unbalanced or uneven lips
• Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the body and the most common dermal fillers today are hyaluronic acid based. 

The nice thing about lip fillers is how quickly you'll notice the difference; the results are almost immediate. Following the injections, you may have some minor swelling, but once it wears down the effects of the fillers are easy to see, and you won't have to wait weeks to see your new lips. Lip filler treatments get excellent results and last a considerable amount of time, but they aren't permanent and will need repeating.

This can make lots of people feel self-conscious about their appearance, making them want to do something to feel better about their bodies.

Injectable Nose Jobs to Improve Your Facial Profile - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

An uneven or bumpy nose can alter the entire look of the face, and camouflaging these bumps or indentations can create a more symmetrical and appealing facial profile. If you're unhappy with the shape of your nose it can cause self-esteem issues. If there's a prominent bump on your nose, it isn't straight or has a dip, and the thought of having your photo taken with your face in profile fills you with dread, then cosmetic treatment using dermal fillers can help.

Most people's worries about their noses are that they look unbalanced, maybe there's a prominent bump on the bridge of the nose, a mild drooping of the nasal tip or they might just want more height and definition. Although putting filler into the nose is technically making the nose ever so slightly bigger, once it's straightened and balanced out, the result will give your face a more beautiful, balanced, and even look.

Having a cosmetic treatment for an injectable nose job is much simpler than a having a surgical nose job, but there is a limit on what's achievable. Dermal filler treatments are great for those who want small refinements and don't want to go through with the pain, the extended recovery time, or the risks of surgery.

A non-surgical nose job is a quick, pain-free procedure, as there is an anaesthetic in the dermal filler. After the injections you'll have to take care as the filler is quite malleable so the cosmetic doctor can compress and mould it, allowing him to give you a nose that's the perfect shape for your face. Nose jobs using dermal filler are temporary and last about 18 months, so eventually you will need a top-up.

 The benefits:

• The treatment will give immediate results
• The recovery is quick and there are no scars
• The injections are pain-free
• You can go straight back to your normal activities
• You can wear make-up straight after your treatment
• There's no invasive surgery and no anaesthetic

Dermal filler nose jobs are ideal if you have a special occasion coming up where you want to feel confident and look your best, especially if there are lots of photos being taken, where the images will be on show for years to come. We all want to look the best we can and this will give us much more self-confidence.

Lose Fatty Man Boobs with Vaser Lipo - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

All men have breast tissue, but there are some men who have excessive breasts. There are lots of men who are becoming more concerned over the state of their chests; worrying about the embarrassment it can cause and unhappy with the way it can affect their body confidence. Moobs are embarrassing for teens and young men, and having this condition often dictates what clothes they choose to wear and which activities they do. They won't want to wear tight t-shirts and slim fitting tops if it shows off their fatty breasts.

Gynecomastia is a condition that's also known as man boobs. It's where there's excess fat in a man's breast area and is usually caused by either a reduction in testosterone levels or an increase in oestrogen levels in a man's body. Oestrogen is found in the bodies of most men, but usually in drastically reduced levels, so when oestrogen levels rise the man's breasts will become more pronounced.

Vaser lipo is a fat removal treatment best known for its usefulness in targeting stubborn areas of fat that simply won't go away through diet and exercise alone. Vaser lipo on the man boobs targets the fat around the chest region, which gets liquefied and then removed through a gentle suction process. Since this procedure is minimally invasive, clients can have their treatment and then go home the same day. Usually, most men who have vaser lipo for this condition get back to work in less than 3 days. The client wears a compression garment under their clothes and will continue taking mild pain medications for a while, until the healing process has completely finished.

Advantages of vaser lipo on man boobs:

• The fat cells taken out are permanently destroyed
• No loose skin on the body after the fat removal, thanks to skin tightening and shrinkage
• Local anaesthetic used during vaser lipo treatment means a walk in, walk out procedure
• Minimally invasive treatment
• Instant results, which gradually improve over the following months
• Minimal discomfort
• Only a few days of downtime

Fat in the male breast can sometimes be very difficult to lose, and in most cases even though healthy eating and exercise has managed to drop the weight from other parts of the body, unfortunately the fatty man boobs are likely to stay. Fortunately, vaser liposuction is an efficient method to resolve this problem. Gynecomastia results are often very soft, which means that the chest area doesn't look out of sync with the rest of the body. Reducing the fatty breast tissue with vaser lipo is a minimally invasive treatment and can transform the body with amazing results.

Enhance Your Lips With Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

The mouth and lips are one of the focal points of the face and we want to keep them looking good. When the face starts to show signs of ageing, one of the first things women tend to rectify is the lips. Over the years, our lips lose their definition, the volume decreases and they become thinner.

We might begin to notice lines and wrinkles around the mouth, or find that the lips getting dry and chapped, or you might just be unhappy with their size or shape. There are some lipsticks available that can temporarily plump up the lips, but if you want a longer lasting result there is help available, and dermal fillers could be the solution to help you get your lips back into a beautiful condition.

Why have lip enhancements?

• To add more volume, to get fuller, plumper lips.
• To balance out lopsided or asymmetrical lips.
• Add volume to naturally small, thin or flat lips.
• To give volume and symmetry to either a thin lower or upper lip.
• Enhancing the shape and definition of the lips.

Lots of women are looking for fuller and more sensuous lips, and we can get these by using dermal fillers. Having a simple, safe dermal filler treatment will add volume and definition to thin lips, both of which we lose, as we grow older. As well as this, the treatment can also balance out uneven lips and lessen the look of fine, vertical lines surrounding the mouth.

Areas that will benefit:
* The vermilion border or lip outline. The filler will create definition and width.
* The smoker's lines around the mouth, which causes lipstick bleeding lines.
* Upper and lower lip - for volume and fullness.
* Definition of the cupids bow - filler adds definition and contouring.

Along with botox, lip augmentation has become one of the most often requested cosmetic treatments, and it's a popular procedure with a wide age range. At reputable clinics, before any treatment the practitioner will discuss your requirements, and recommend which filler he will use. A fully trained cosmetic practitioner will always pay attention to the shape of the lips, and not just to their size, and as clients usually want a natural looking lip enhancement, it's important to use soft natural fillers. The day after the procedure the lips may swell slightly, so it's always a good idea to have the procedure at the weekend when you have a couple of days off to recover.
