ASSESSMENT

Separate laxity, volume and muscle influence.

Laxity & firmness

We assess skin and tissue firmness and whether lifting or tightening is the priority rather than adding volume.

True volume loss

We examine temple and cheek hollows and midface volume from front, oblique and side views. Volume correction is discussed separately with filler or injection options.

Muscle & expression

We assess how muscle volume and movement, including the masseter, influence contours and consider muscle botulinum toxin when appropriate.

CONSULTATION & RECOVERY

Consultation & recovery planning

  1. Before treatment

    Tell us about previous procedures, their timing, current medication and important dates. We review your skin and the changes you hope to achieve.

  2. After treatment

    Depending on the procedure, swelling, bruising, tenderness or temporary warmth may occur. We review previous fillers, threads, energy procedures and surgery, then reassess once changes settle.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Frequently asked questions

How do lifting and fillers differ?

Lifting focuses on laxity and firmness, while fillers are considered for actual volume loss and contours. Views from several angles and examination help identify the needed approach.

Can devices and injections be combined?

A combination may be considered when laxity coexists with volume or skin-quality concerns. Skin condition and recovery guide devices, products, areas and sequence.

How is the number of sessions decided?

It depends on the chosen procedure, skin condition and goals. Changes and recovery are reviewed before deciding on maintenance or further treatment.
