Forehead lines

Lines on the forehead are generally caused by hyperactivity of the frontalis muscle which creates ungainly horizontal and vertical lines. the area treated with Anti Wrinkles Treatment injections becomes smooth and flat just like a baby’s skin.

The challenge for an aesthetic practitioner is to calm the hyperactivity of the frontalis muscle, so that wrinkles can be removed without paralyzing the forehead or freezing the facial expressions.

Occasionally, after several years of Anti Wrinkles Treatment treatment in this area, vertical wrinkles known as “sleep lines” may appear.

Frown lines

Frown lines are caused by very strong frontalis muscles which are regularly used when the eyebrows frown. They can make the face look severe, even angry.

Anti Wrinkles Treatment injections will soften the facial expression and will relax the interbrow muscles, whilst the hyaluronic acid injections will further smooth the surface of the wrinkle.

Crow’s feet wrinkles

Crow’s feet are caused by the action of the orbicularis muscle. When it contracts, it forms furrows in the corner of the eye.

The challenge is to ensure that movement around the eye contour is not impaired and to avoid imbalance with the non-treated lower eyelid which would, in this case, appear more wrinkled as a result. Moreover, a Anti Wrinkles Treatment injection in this area could cause or worsen an already-existing malar pouch (eye bag) so, care is needed.

When performed wisely, Anti Wrinkles Treatment injections can relax the muscle, and in turn reduce the fine lines without modifying the patient’s facial expression.

Nose (non-surgical rhinoplasty)

Aesthetic medicine can correct certain nose design anomalies and avoid the need for a surgical rhinoplasty.

Non-surgical nose job using hyaluronic acid injections can hide certain ungainly bumps and subtly fill hollows.

Secondly, filler injections are an efficient solution for rounding off or for turning up the tip of the nose to make it more aesthetically pleasing.

Non-surgical rhinoplasty is performed to harmonize and correct facial symmetry over the long term.

Cheekbone

Facial sagging is a result of the loss of fat volume and is one of the first signs of aging. Restoring lost fat by injecting a hyaluronic acid filler gives the patient an instantly ”rejuvenated appearance.

Hyaluronic acid injections administered to the cheekbone, temple, cheek and facial contours can help tighten and rejuvenate the face without any need for surgery.

Well-proportioned cheekbones can give a “baby-face” effect and generally improve the aspect of the nasogenian furrow, which is often equated to loss of volume at the cheekbone.

Nasogenian furrow

The furrow gets deeper and worsens over the years due to facial movements like laughing and smiling. These lines start to remain visible even when the face is at rest.

When the furrow is extremely deep, malar loss must first be restored by raising the cheekbone through the use of hyaluronic acid injections.

Subsequently, hyaluronic acid injections can be administered to the furrow itself. Facial rejuvenation is extremely natural when this technique is used.

Lips

The mouth is a focal point. Hyaluronic acid, (just like the type that exists in the dermis) breaks down over time. Therefore, hyaluronic acid injection treatments are both safe and reversible. Results generally last between 8 to 12 months and can last up to 36 months based on the density of the product and the area to be injected. of the face. This is why the contour of the lips combined with the volume levels help to harmonize the face.

Did you know that lip injections can also lift droopy mouth corners? Lip injections administered over time will ensure the lasting result is perfectly natural.

Peribuccal wrinkles

As we get older, peribuccal wrinkles appear around the lips and produce a pleating effect. They are directly related to dehydration and sun exposure and become more apparent as we age. The orbicularis muscle of the lips, which is frequently used, also intensifies the appearance of these wrinkles. These are sometimes referred to as “smoker’s wrinkles”.

Hyaluronic acid injections fill cutaneous breaks and fine lines, in turn helping to smooth the contours of the mouth.

Chin

With age, the chin loses volume which leads to little vertical wrinkles positioned directly under the mouth. Hyaluronic acid injections can be administered to help greatly improve the contours of the chin.

Face shape

The sagging of the skin, facial contours and neck muscles can cause jowls to appear which destroy the natural shape and contours of the face.

Hyaluronic acid injections can enhance the facial contours without the need for surgical procedure.

However, if the jowls are very prominent, a mini facelift procedure is the best antidote. It works by tightening the muscles and reducing the muscular ptosis.

Neck

The horizontal lines on the neck are joint wrinkles. As we get older, the neck becomes more and more creased and presents what is known as platysmal cords.

However, if the wrinkles are very pronounced, a mini facelift and neck lift remain the most efficient solutions.

Under-eye circle

Sunken under-eye circle are often the result of the disappearance of sub-cutaneous fat. As the skin of the lower eyelid is extremely fine, the bony contours of the eye socket shine through.

When the under-eye circle is too sunken, only micro-lipostructure can restore volume loss permanently.

Malar pouch (Eye bag)

A malar pouch is a sort of double under-eye circle, more commonly known as an eye bag. It can look swollen which further emphasises the tired appearance. It is not a pocket of fat but a ptosis of the orbicularis muscle.

An eye bag can be reduced by injecting a highly-diluted dose of cortisone at periosteum level, completed by hyaluronic acid injections in the cheekbone hollows.

Tear trough

Fat loss at tear trough level and cheekbone level result in a demarcation between the lower eyelid and the roundness of the cheek. This malar loss also marks the nasogenian furrow, which is no longer supported by the cheekbone.

Hyaluronic acid injections into the tear trough will re-balance volume and eliminate the deep lines which make the face look tired.

Bitterness fold

Bitterness folds, also known as “marionette creases”, are wrinkles that extend from the corners of the mouth down to the chin.

The muscles that are frequently used for laughing and for the various facial expressions are the main cause of the appearance of this expression line, even though skin ageing has also a role to play.

In aesthetic medicine, these “bitterness folds” can be treated with hyaluronic acid injections.
