Please note that all new patients will need to have a patient consultation prior to booking any treatment. This is so that we can discuss the treatments you are considering, your medical history and whether the treatments are appropriate for you. All consultations are face to face with a pharmacist, with full explanation of risks and benefits, discussion of suitability given your medical history, any medication you take and any history of allergy. Treatments are carried out in a private clinic and full aftercare advice and support is given.
Anti-wrinkle injections
Botulinum toxin can be used to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Small amounts of botulinum toxin are injected, which temporarily relax muscles by interrupting the signals sent by nerves to tell them to contract. The muscle enters a resting state, which gives the desired cosmetic effect. Depending on the area injected, results last from 3 to 6 months.
Dermal fillers are sterile gels that can be injected under the skin in areas where there is volume loss, or to provide lift and/or contouring. The clinic only uses premium filler made from hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring sugar that you have in your own skin. Hyaluronic acid fillers are regarded as safer than other fillers because they can be reversed if required. Fillers can last from 3-18 months, depending on the area injected. Fillers come in a range of different preparations; it is essential that practitioners understand which filler is suitable for different treatment areas, therefore choosing a practitioner should be done with care. Paige is trained to carry out basic and advanced filler techniques.
