Injectables – anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers

You can feel more confident and rejuvenate your face without the cost, upheaval and risks of surgery.

Highfield Aesthetics, run by a fully-qualified aesthetic practitioner, has teamed up with Avance Clinic to offer anti-wrinkle and dermal filler treatments to give you a younger-looking, fresher face.

Anti-wrinkle injections (commonly referred to as Botox)

Anti-wrinkle injections work to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by relaxing specific facial muscles. The areas we currently treat include vertical frown lines between the eyebrows, horizontal forehead lines and crow’s feet around the eyes. Many clients begin treatments in their late 20s to delay the onset of wrinkles. The treatment can also improve and reduce fine lines and wrinkles in more mature clients.

Dermal fillers

Dermal fillers are substances injected into the skin to add volume and fullness to regions of the face. The dermal fillers used at Avance Clinic are always made of hyaluronic acid, a substance that is naturally produced by the human body.

Dermal fillers can be used to provide re-shaping of the lips, chin and cheeks. When strategically placed by an expert practitioner, dermal fillers can help to balance your facial profile, defining your chin and cheek bones to give a more proportionate appearance for both men and women. They can also be used to smooth smoker’s lines (also known as peri-oral lines), that sometimes form around the upper lip of long-term smokers. They can also be used to treat deeper set wrinkles, including naso-labial lines (smile lines) and marionette lines.

We see a lot of clinics claiming that there is “no downtime” following filler treatments, however some bruising, lumps and bumps can occur and may last a few days. If you are a new client, we always offer to book you in for a two-week follow up appointment to make sure you’re happy with the results.

The Belotero dermal filler range at Avance Clinic

The majority of Highfield Aesthetic dermal filler treatments are performed using Merz Belotero hyaluronic acid products.

We find that Belotero products integrate smoothly into the tissues to give a natural look. The hydrophilic properties allow this filler to bind to water in the skin’s layers resulting in the effective smoothing of facial wrinkles.

Depending on the area treated, we expect results to last anywhere between six and 18 months.

Safety is paramount

Looking fabulous is great but, with us, your safety comes first.

With aesthetic treatments becoming more popular, there are people out there performing these injections without ANY medical qualifications.

Anaphylaxis (a severe and life-threatening allergic reaction) is a medical emergency and can happen when injecting anything into the body. Is your practitioner able to recognise the signs? Do they have an emergency protocol in place? Do they carry medication used to treat this and are they qualified to prescribe this? Highfield Aesthetics is run by a qualified pharmacist prescriber.

At Highfield Aesthetics, we understand that injectable treatments can carry risks. We ensure that all of our clients have a consultation where a medical history is taken and suitability for treatment is assessed. If we do not think you are suitable for a specific treatment, we will not treat you.

We always like to ensure that we are on hand to answer any queries or concerns you may have following a treatment. For this reason, we will never perform treatments if our clients are planning to go away on holiday within the next two weeks.
