Non-surgical Rejuvenation

Anti-wrinkle injections

Considering subtle yet effective measures to get rid of those facial wrinkles?

These injections offer a viable non-surgical alternative for rejuvenation of the ageing face. It leads to muscle paralysis and obvious clinical effects by approximately seven days. The effects last for 3-6 months and repeated treatments are required to maintain the results. It is also used to treat non-cosmetic problems including migraine headaches and axillary hyperhidrosis (excessive perspiration).

These injections are safe, effective, predictable, minimally invasive and reproducible. However, it should be performed by qualified individuals as contraindications and risks exist.

Enhancement injections

Wanting to know more about the myriad of cosmetic injectables on the market?

These injections may be autologous (obtained from your own body i.e. fat grafting), allogenic (human based), xenogeneic (animal derived) or synthetic. Some products are resorbable or temporary, while others may be long lasting or even permanent.

No single injectable product has all the desired characteristics. The aim is to achieve your goals with minimal risks or adverse effects. Our preferred product, due to it's safety profile, is synthetically derived by fermentation in cultures of equine streptococci. It is a polysaccharide which occurs naturally in skin. It has been used successfully for both wrinkle reduction (glabella, nasolabial fold, tear trough deformities), augmentation (lip, cheek) and facial contouring. It persists for 6-12 months after injection.
