Restylane & Juvederm - Dermal Fillers
Dermal or Facial Fillers such as Restylane & Juvederm - Why should I consider them?
The ageing process is associated with a loss of skin volume and the appearance of static lines i.e. lines that are permanently visible on the face rather than lines caused by movement of muscles. As we age, the hyaluronic acid content of the skin - which is so important for water retention and hydration - decreases. Oil glands become less active and the skin becomes drier, loses fat so becomes less plump, and its youthful texture and glow starts to fade.
Dermal Fillers provide gentle volumising and contouring, creating a naturally attractive effect to smooth out and fill lines and wrinkles. Juvederm Ultra® and Restylane® are popular choices of dermal filler due to their safety and results. These fillers are made from hyaluronic acid which supplements your own body's lack of it due to the ageing process. Hyaluronic acid will plump-up or raise the skin and 'fill in' the area being treated. Essentially it enhances your natural looks by restoring your skin's volume, creating softness and revitalising your appearance.
Our experts use dermal fillers to plump and define the lips to give more volume or definition and make lips more kissable!

Juvederm Voluma
Re-contour, re-define and augment the cheek, chin and cheekbone areas.
Juvéderm Voluma is an injectable hyaluronic volumiser that recontours the mid sections of the face to restore youthful volume to the cheek, cheekbone and chin areas. The results are immediate, even, and very natural looking - the effects of which have been shown to last up to 18 months.
Due to the ageing process, facial fat loss, gravity and loss of the skin's natural elasticity all conspire to reverse the natural balance and effects of youthful skin. Juvéderm Voluma can restore the face's balance and heart-shaped proportions for a fuller, softer, more youthful appearance. Facial contours appear fuller and rounder helping to recapture the facial volume that age and weight loss can diminish. Immediately following treatment, patients should notice a return of the soft, full cheeks and firm, high cheekbones of youth, a refreshing revolumisation of the face and a marked return of smooth jowls and jawline together with a firmer chin. With its high lifting capacity, Voluma can also be used to reverse the effects of a sagging facelift.
Juvederm Voluma, a unique smooth-consistency malleable gel, flows easily into the skin. Juvéderm Voluma was developed to be smoother than other hyaluronic acid (HA) volumisers, making it easier to inject during treatment and resulting in a smooth, natural look and feel.
Perhaps the best indicator of the advantages and benefits of treatment with Juvéderm Voluma is the level to which those who have used it enjoy their results. A clinical study demonstrated that at 6 to 18 months after treatment, all study participants rated their results as positive!
