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.

Replace Lost Volume in the Cheeks With Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

A youthful face has plump apple cheeks, smooth contours and a natural glow, but as we get older, we lose volume due to the loss of collagen, which takes away this natural glow. Keeping our face looking youthful is achievable using injectable treatments and dermal fillers are one of the most popular choices available today.

Dermal fillers can enhance your cheeks by filling in lost volume and bringing back a smoother, fuller and healthier look to your skin. Filler containing hyaluronic acid is a very good choice because of its excellent compatibility with the human body, making it ideal to erase facial wrinkles and lines and replace volume loss. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found the body and when used in a filler it acts as a network that transfers essential nutrients from the bloodstream to the skin cells.

Filler is used to:
*  Create higher cheekbones
*  Minimise harsh angles creating a smoother cheek contour
*  Give the cheek a natural curve
*  Fill in hollow cheeks

High cheekbones are a thing of beauty, but unfortunately they don't come naturally to everyone. Loss of volume will diminish the cheek, making them seem hollow and gaunt but using facial filler to add volume to the cheeks could rectify this, and bring the back the symmetry of the face. The three main landmarks on the face are the nose, cheeks and chin, and the facial structure might seem unbalanced when one of these is out of proportion.

A practitioner will inject dermal filler into the hollow areas, and you'll immediately notice the difference as the wrinkles vanish and the sunken areas get more volume. When our body's own collagen starts to decrease, hyaluronic acid fillers will replace the deteriorating supporting layers of the skin, and temporarily replenish the skin's volume.

Facial fillers are a simple solution and they offer many benefits:

• They're minimally invasive
• Results are instantly visible, although the full results may take a couple of weeks to appear
• Procedure takes less than an hour
• Minimal downtime required after the treatment
• Results will last from nine months to a year

The dermal filler will plump up the apples of the cheeks and sculpt the cheek bones. Higher, fuller cheeks can enhance your appearance, balance your other facial features and instantly restore your face to a more youthful appearance. Dermal fillers are ideal for those who want to look younger and fresher without the need for invasive surgery. They can work wonders for skin that has wrinkles and volume loss and these treatments are a wonderful option to fight the signs of ageing.

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.

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

We get deep lines and folds in the skin as we get older because ageing causes the skin to lose elasticity and collagen, and it's this that makes our face begin to sag and look gaunt. We would all like to correct sunken cheeks and the hollows beneath our eyes to regain the plump fullness of skin from our youth, and dermal fillers are a great option for those wishing to lose these deep folds and lines on the face, but don't wish to have invasive cosmetic surgery.

Dermal fillers on tear troughs

We shouldn't confuse dermal fillers with botox, because although we inject both of these treatments into the face, we use botox to stop the muscle movement which causes wrinkles, while we use fillers to add volume to the face. This involves placing the fillers in strategic places to lift the cheeks and jowls, give volume to the lips and fill deep lines and hollows. Filler treatment can improve your looks, enhance your profile and leave your face with a natural expression.

Dermal fillers are ideal for these areas:

• Tear troughs - this treatment gives a natural filled out appearance, correcting the hollows beneath the eyes.
• Marionette lines - these lines run from the corners of the mouth, down towards the chin, causing deep creases which lead to jowls or a poorly defined jaw line. These are often a result of volume loss in the upper and mid face, combined with the effects of gravity.
• Nasolabial lines - these are the deep lines from the nose to the mouth, where deep creasing can occur. Often these are a result of volume loss in the cheeks and temples.
• Cheek Augmentation - loss of volume in the cheeks flattens the mid face. Dermal fillers are an effective treatment that instantly adds volume to cheeks, giving an immediately more youthful appearance.
• Forehead wrinkles - Frown lines are the vertical lines between the eyebrows, and they are one of the most common signs of ageing. Dermal fillers are perfect for softening and minimizing the very deep lines which are visible, even when your forehead is at rest.
• Lip enhancement - dermal fillers will give your lips better definition, reduce lipstick bleed and will enhance thin, ageing or asymmetrical lips. Filler treatment is a perfect solution to give you fuller, healthier looking lips, reducing smoker's lines and lifting mouth corners.

Dermal filler treatment for cheek enhancement

Dermal fillers are a non-surgical treatment, used to plump up depressions in the skin. The main reason for depressions in the skin are wrinkles, lines and loss of volume caused by the ageing process. Dermal fillers work by plumping up the treated area and making it level with the rest of the skin, filling out any depressed areas such as wrinkles or sunken cheeks. A very fine needle injects the filler into the treatment area, which adds more structure and firmness to the face.

Benefits;

• It's a non-invasive treatment with little downtime, allowing you to return to normal activities straight away
• Fillers reduce lines and wrinkles to give a more youthful looking appearance
• They will replenish lost volume for a softer, younger look
• The results are long-lasting 

Lip enhancement

As we age, it is well-known that the skin loses its smoothness, and this happens because the body's natural levels of collagen reduce with age. This loss of shape and firmness is a problem that dermal fillers can rectify. During the injection treatment, most people report only a slight discomfort, so the treatment usually doesn't need an anaesthetic. After treatment, you can go straight back to your normal activities. The results are usually seen instantly and will last for around six to eight months.

Facial Fillers Erase Wrinkles & Add Volume - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Hyaluronic acid, hydration and water retention in our body decreases as we get older causing our skin to lose its plumpness and begin to get drier. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that occurs in the body, it holds water, which hydrates and gives volume to the skin, but unfortunately as we age this production of hyaluronic acid starts to diminish.

Cheek enhancement using dermal fillers

For many reasons; maybe age, stress or weight loss, we might find that our face is beginning to look tired, drawn and gaunt. Skin on younger people looks firmer and plumper in comparison, thanks in part to collagen and hyaluronic acid. One of the ways we can combat the signs of getting older, is to replace the hyaluronic acid that is lost during the ageing process with dermal fillers. They create a naturally smoothed out appearance, fill in the fine lines and wrinkles and plump out the grooves and creases.

Dermal fillers are an ideal treatment to improve facial contours, fill out sunken cheeks, reduce wrinkles and fine lines and help people regain their former youthful looks. Before our late 30's, the skin should still keep it's natural contoured nature and volume, without too many wrinkles or sagging, which makes the process a better prospect for middle-aged skin. Although late nights, heavy drinking and smoking can speed up the signs of ageing, so it's possible to need dermal fillers at a younger age.

Dermal fillers on tear troughs

Placing the fillers in strategic places will:

• Add volume to hollowed, gaunt, or sunken areas of the face.
• Give a natural filled out appearance under the lower eyelids, correcting the hollowed eyed look.
• Soften the deep grooves between the side of the nose to the corner of the mouth.
• Add volume to the cheeks, improving the marionette lines from the mouth to the chin.
• Jowl correction will give you a smooth jaw line.
• Will gently thicken skin that has thinned, due to ageing.
• Improve furrows, deep folds and creases.
• Will plump up the apples of the cheeks and sculpt the cheek bones.
• Lip enhancement will give better definition, reduce lipstick bleed, add volume and give a fuller appearance.

Dermal filler on lip lines

The effects of dermal fillers are instant. There's a small chance however, of slight bleeding where the needle enters the skin, and slight swelling or redness at the injection area, although this will go down very quickly and the use of an ice pack will speed up resolution.

Care & Treatment of Ageing Skin - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Ageing is inevitable, and the effects of ageing is most noticeable in the skin; with wrinkles, volume loss, dull and dry skin all becoming more common as we get older, but it's good to know that there are things that we can do about it. 

Our skin changes over time for lots of different reasons. Genetics can play a part and hormones will also be a reason, but external influences like sun exposure can damage elastin and cause pigmentation, smoking will damage cells which will lead to premature wrinkles and repeated facial movements will all contribute to cause lines and wrinkles, but other factors can also play their part.

Chemical Peel

Over time dryness sets in because the skin produces less moisturising oils, and due to ageing we also lose a lot of volume around the cheeks, temples, chin and around the eye area and this often results in loose, sagging skin and a sunken facial appearance.

No matter how well we look after our skin, or how much we try to alter the way we care for our skin, sometimes it’s just not enough and we have to think about a bit of cosmetic intervention.

There are three stages to keep your skin looking young and healthy:

Correction - especially of age-related spots, acne scars, fine lines and pigmentation - microdermabrasion and chemical peel treatments can help with these symptoms.

Maintenance - keeping the skin hydrated, stimulating collagen and maintaining the skin's elasticity - hyaluronic acid dermal fillers keep the skin looking firmer, hydrated and will replace lost volume. Botox can ease the lines and wrinkles appearing on the face.

Prevention - protect the skin with UV sun screen to prevent ageing skin, sun spots and future skin problems - Image skin care range has a number of skin creams and serums to help protect your skin and keep it in a great condition.

We should aim for uncomplicated skin care routines, and having a solid skin care routine doesn’t have to take up hours of your time. In fact good skin care should just involve: a good facial cleanser, exfoliating, using an effective moisturiser, a serum for your particular skin type and a basic sun screen protection. A simple routine taking 10 minutes is usually enough. 

Ageing causes the skin to change because of:

• Loss of collagen
• The loss of the elastin in the skin causes the skin to become slack
• Hyaluronic acid production slows down
• Thinning of the epidermis causes the skin to become more transparent
• The skin becomes rougher
• Volume loss causes the superficial and deep mid-facial fat pads to slip down the face

Our skin has to last us for a lifetime, so we should do our  very best to take care of it.

Restore Volume in Sunken Hollow Cheeks using Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

When we age it's common to notice hollows beginning to appear in the cheeks and tear troughs and dark circles under the eyes, which can make the face look older and gaunt. As we get older our skin starts to lose its elasticity and begins showing signs of ageing, leading to the loss of shape and definition of the face.

To lots of people, fuller cheeks and prominent cheekbones are attributes which make us look younger and more attractive. Lots of us would just prefer to have fuller cheeks or we want to replace the lost volume that causes sunken cheeks, and both can easily be treated using dermal fillers.

Dermal filler treatment can help to camouflage bags underneath the eyes and add volume to hollow, sagging cheeks. At Selston Cosmetic Clinic we can smooth wrinkles and facial folds and bring sunken skin back up to the surface by adding volume. Dermal fillers are an effective way to restore youthful fullness to the face, and the main areas are the eye hollows, the nasolabial lines from the nose to the mouth, the chin, enhancing the lips and the cheeks.

If you've never been blessed with prominent cheekbones or you've lost some fullness because of ageing, then dermal filler is an ideal solution. It's a minimally invasive treatment and it will leave you with natural looking, tighter skin.

Dermal filler treatment can;

• Add volume to the cheeks
• Fill the hollows of tear troughs
• Enhance the jaw line 
• Define the chin
• Plump the lips
• Reduce the nasolabial folds

The skeletal changes we see over time, can accentuate the sagging areas of the face, like the tear troughs, the jowls, and the nasolabial folds. We can inject filler to correct any hollowing which happens through ageing and it will restore the skin’s natural elasticity, and leave the skin feeling firmer and highlighting the restored facial features.

Small amounts of dermal filler get injected into the cheek areas where there the volume has been lost and the injections work straight away, adding volume and subtly lifting the cheek area, temporarily reversing the loss of collagen. This treatment will plump up the apples of the cheeks and sculpt the cheek bones.

The dermal filler treatment gets done in a single appointment, it takes about 40 minutes and there's no downtime. The injections cause only minimal discomfort and there's anaesthetic in the filler itself, making it a fairly painless procedure. The results are instant and last for up to a year.

Replace Lost Volume and Enhance the Cheeks - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

We tend to lose volume from our face as we get older and the most common place this happens is in the cheeks. The volume goes from the cheeks, causing a flattening of the mid face and this loss of fat can also exaggerate the nasolabial folds. Ageing is a gradual thing, and because we see ourselves in the mirror every day we don't notice all the little changes happening. It's when we look at old photo's and compare the changes, or maybe we notice ageing signs on other people we haven't seen for a while.

As well as wrinkles, with ageing, we also develop sagging and hollows. Our collagen production slows down so the skin is no longer as thick and firm as it was, which can stop us looking our best. A couple of things can cause the face to deflate with age; the structure of the skeleton thins, making the cheekbones recede and get smaller and the medial fat pads thin out and gravity pulls them downwards.

You can do everything right for your body with diet and exercise, but in the long-term, your face might not thank you for it. It's the fat that gives the face its youthful look, and having high cheekbones is a sign of youth and beauty. It seems that being thin is the goal of most people, but when it comes your face, thin can make you look older.

Some people often get called baby-faced, and this usually means they have the smooth, rounder cheeks that we see on babies. Lots of us spend our teens and our twenties trying to lose our facial fat to get defined cheekbones, but by the time we reach our middle-age years, a skinny face can sadly look like an old face. The truth is that round, full faces, tend to look younger.

Facial fat is lost gradually over the years, but a massive weight loss will often show a dramatic change in the face. Dermal filler treatment to enhance the cheeks are an effective treatment that will instantly add volume to your cheeks, giving an instant, more youthful appearance.

Cheek augmentation is a popular treatment choice for those with flattened cheekbones or for those who have volume loss around the cheeks. It's a minimally invasive procedure, is almost painless and needs no downtime, although you may experience slight swelling or potential bruising but you can return to work after your treatment.

Restore Volume to Sunken Cheeks With Dermal Filler - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Maintaining a youthful face, is achievable using injectable treatments, and dermal fillers are one of the most popular choices available today.

Hyaluronic acid is a very good choice as a dermal filler, to reduce your facial wrinkles and lines and volume loss, because of its excellent compatibility with the human body. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found the body and when used in a filler, it acts as a network that transfers essential nutrients from the bloodstream to the skin cells.

Ageing and weight-loss are contributing factors when our face begins to look older and worn-out day by day. Collagen is the reason our skin looks fresh and tight, but over time our body will lose vital components such as collagen fibres and elastin, when it gradually starts decreasing in our skin. When our body's own naturally occurring collagen starts to decrease, hyaluronic acid fillers will replace the deteriorating supporting layers of the skin and temporarily replenish the skin’s volume.

High cheekbones are a thing of beauty, but unfortunately, they don’t come naturally to everyone. Loss of volume will diminish the cheeks, making them seem hollow and gaunt, but using dermal filler to add volume to the cheeks could rectify this. The three main landmarks on the face are the nose, cheeks and chin, and the facial structure might seem unbalanced when one of these is out of proportion.

At Selston Cosmetic Clinic, when we inject dermal fillers into the skin where the fine lines, wrinkles and sunken areas are, you will immediately notice the difference, as the wrinkles vanish and the sunken areas achieve more volume. 

The filler treatment plumps up the apples of the cheeks and sculpts the cheek bones. Higher, fuller cheeks can improve your appearance, balance your other facial features, and instantly restore your face to a more youthful appearance. Dermal fillers are ideal for those who want to look younger and fresher without the need for invasive surgery.

Dermal fillers are a simple solution that offer many benefits :

• The injectable fillers are minimally invasive.
• The results from dermal fillers are instantly visible (full results may take a couple of weeks to appear)
• The procedure takes less than an hour
• There is minimal downtime required after the treatment 
• The results from dermal fillers will last from  9 months to a year. 

Dermal fillers can work wonders for skin which has wrinkles and volume loss, and these treatments are a wonderful option to fight the signs of ageing.

Liquid Facelift Treatment Using Botox & Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

As the years go by, we start to notice those unavoidable signs of ageing as they start to show on our face. The skin loses collagen and elasticity and starts to sag, resulting in jowls. We also lose volume, making the cheeks and temples look flatter and hollow, and the lips become thinner and less defined. Wrinkles and fine lines will also, sooner or later, make their presence felt. With so many treatments available to rejuvenate the skin, it’s very hard to know which one is the best for you.

Cheek Lift Enhancement to Give a Youthful Appearance - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

The more we age, the more we notice the changes happening to our skin. With the onset of time, many ageing effects happen that can make us look tired and less youthful. Ageing causes the facial skin to sag when gravity pulls the skin on the cheek downwards. The fat pad slides down from the cheek bone into the face, which gives the effect of sunken cheeks, on and below the cheek bones.

A plump, full high cheek is a hallmark of a beautiful face. When we lose volume in the cheeks, it can leave us with a gaunt appearance and this is especially true of those who manage to lose lots of weight and others who are naturally slender.

Once upon a time only a facelift or cheek implants could help with restoring facial volume, but these days we have a number of effective, non-surgical treatments. Older skin loses fat and collagen which causes a change of our facial contour, resulting in hollowed cheeks, sagging skin and wrinkles, leading to an overly aged, drawn appearance.

An attractive face is defined by smooth, round contours and high cheekbones. Ageing leads to loss of definition on the cheeks and jaw-line and you might notice shadows around the cheek bone that's associated with loss of fat. Over time your face might change, but dermal filler injections will allow you to subtly control your looks as you age.

Dermal fillers are ideal for smoothing away facial lines and wrinkles, creating fuller lips and shaping facial contours like the cheeks and chin. People seek cheek augmentation to correct flatness, asymmetry, or to improve the overall balance of the facial shape. The cheek filler treatment plumps up the apples of the cheeks and sculpts the cheek bones. This instantly restores your face to a youthful appearance.

The most common areas treated are:

• The cheeks - to add volume and contour the face
• The nasolabial folds - the nose to mouth lines
• The glabella lines - between the eyebrows
• The lips - adding shape and volume
• The chin and jaw-line - adding definition.

Dermal fillers work by boosting the skin’s own supply of hyaluronic acid, and dermal fillers 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 is long-lasting but not permanent.

At the Selston Cosmetic Clinic, cheek enhancement is one of the most common treatments requested, and we have many clients returning for repeat treatments. Dr Bassi has developed great expertise delivering this treatment over the last 10 years.

Anti-Ageing Methods and Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

There are many things we can do as we age, to help keep us looking younger. The anti-ageing methods we use, fall somewhere between wrinkle cream and a face-lift... and let's face it, we'll try anything!

Creams and Serum

The makers of anti-ageing creams claim to be able to give you a face several decades younger, but which ones do we choose? The vast range of face creams, gels and serums that promise to keep us looking younger, are mind-blowing, especially the choice; anti-wrinkle, de-creasing, radiance, anti-ageing, age-defying, plumping up, mega-hydrating ... and on, and on. When using skin care products, there are certain ingredients you should look for;

Matrixyl - This skin-perfecting peptide stimulates collagen, restores elasticity and encourages skin repair.
Pro-Vitamin B5 - This ingredient can attract and hold on to moisture, leaving the skin supple and hydrated.
Retinol - this works by stimulating collagen production and increasing the turnover of skin cells.

Vitamin E - is moisturising, anti-inflammatory and can protect skin against sun damage.
Vitamin C - can help reduce inflammation, reverse sun damage and boost collagen production.

Sunscreen - A moisturiser with SPF 25 or higher is the best defence against wrinkles, dullness, brown spots and the loss of firmness.

Fake Tan
Get yourself a healthy glow. We all know that "real" sunbathing is ageing for the skin, but a subtle tan obtained by using either self tanning lotions and wipes, spray or fake tan, will give you a boost of confidence. Alternatively, a tinted moisturiser will give the skin a nice glow. There is no denying that tanned skin makes you look and feel younger, thinner and more beautiful.

Teeth Whitening
Nothing is more rejuvenating than a beautiful, white smile. It’s astounding how many years a decent smile can take off your face. People with stained and dull teeth tend not to smile because they are uncomfortable or embarrassed about their teeth. According to a recent study, having whiter teeth makes you look more successful, more employable, more attractive and at least five years younger.

Haircut and Colour
A good haircut can make you look ten years younger. We've all seen the make-over programmes on TV, where a new cut and colour instantly turns a frumpy mother into a yummy mummy! Every five years you need to reinvent yourself, not drastic major changes, just little tweaks. You can have the same basic hairstyle forever, but you do need to change it up a bit. There are plenty of changes you can make to instantly take years off your look. Maybe changing your parting, adding layers, having a fringe cut in or by choosing softer-coloured hair highlights.

Dermal Fillers
Fillers will add volume to the face by filling in the wrinkles and lines, and sometimes by plumping up areas of the face, giving your face a younger look. Area's like the cheeks, under-eye area and temples, that over time have lost volume, causing the skin to sink and sag are ideal places to fill. Small amounts of dermal filler get directly injected into the skin using a fine needle. No recovery time is needed after dermal filler treatment and you can return to usual activities straight away. Some slight swelling or bruising might be experienced at the injection area, but this doesn't usually last longer than 48 hours. Your doctor will discuss your recovery and what to expect when you attend your appointment.

We should always aim for subtle results, leaving our friends and family believing that we are simply just looking our best! Dermal fillers really are like a mini face lift!

Cheek Lift for High Cheeks & Facial Volume - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Spring is the time for renewal and change, which makes it the best time to sort out your facial issues. Full cheeks and high cheekbones are one of the signs of a youthful face, so, after a long winter, how nice would it be to look and feel refreshed by restoring the face's lost volume. Sagging and sunken cheeks can have a huge impact on the rest of the face. Over time everything seems to shift downwards and the face can start to look permanently drawn, unhappy and tired.

Cheeks and cheekbones are an important part of facial beauty, as defined cheeks create balance, improve the profile, and give a youthful impression. Some people lose facial volume with age, while others have never had contoured cheeks, but both would like to achieve fullness and a lift to the cheeks to give a more youthful appearance.

It's a fact that in our youth our cheeks are rounder, smoother and have more volume. The reason for this is down to collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid in the skin, as well as fat within the facial contours. These elements are lost as we grow older which means we lose the high cheeked look. With ageing our cheek bones look less pronounced and after the age of 30 the skin can lose 1% of its collagen and thickness. Dramatic weight loss, extensive exercising, stress and illness can all contribute to loss of fat in the face, leaving us with a gaunt, hollow-cheeked look.

One way to improve the structure of the face is by using dermal fillers as they are a great way to help restore volume. A cheek lift procedure involves injecting a dermal filler into the cheeks to replace lost volume, plump up the cheeks and help to lose the gaunt look that ageing brings about. Lifting the cheeks can give dramatic results, achieving a more youthful appearance, but doing so in a subtle way that makes it hard for others to put their finger on exactly what you've done that is different!

The ageing process can result in our upper cheeks becoming flat and saggy and it's the correction of these with dermal fillers which gives you a 'cheek lift' . This treatment instantly restores your face, giving it a youthful appearance by plumping up the apples of the cheeks and sculpting the cheek bones. Cheek enhancement is one of the most common treatments requested at the Selston Cosmetic Clinic and we have many clients returning for repeat treatments.

With over 10 years experience as a specialist cosmetic practitioner, Dr Bassi has performed thousands of injectable treatments and tailors his facial filler and remodelling treatment to each patient, to help them look and feel their best. A local anaesthetic is used to numb the area and the procedure takes about 20-30 minutes and you can go back to work the following day. The results are immediate and last between 9-12 months.
