Injectables are designed to smooth dynamic wrinkles, the types of creases which form as a result of repeated facial movements, such as frowning, squinting, or even smiling. We use different products that are considered safe and effective for reduction of facial wrinkles. The effects typically last two to four months, although this is patient dependent, with some patients experiencing a longer duration of effect. Injection into the muscles under facial wrinkles causes relaxation of those muscles, resulting in the smoothing of the overlying skin. Smoothing of wrinkles is usually visible three-five days after injection, with maximum effect typically a week following injection. Muscles can be treated repeatedly to maintain the smoothed appearance.

Procedure wherein temporary sutures are used to produce a “lift” in the skin. Instead of removing the patient’s loose facial skin surgically, the cosmetic surgeon suspends it by stitching up portions of it. This has the effect of pulling the skin back slightly and therefore lifting and tightening the face. In addition to being ideal for lifting the skin, threads combat ageing in another way: by provoking the body’s “healing response” and causing the body to direct large surges of collagen to treated areas. This is important because of the vital role collagen plays in the aging process.

Cheek augmentation is a cosmetic surgical procedure that is intended to emphasize the cheeks on a person’s face. To augment the cheeks, a plastic surgeon may place a solid implant over the cheekbone.

Chin augmentation using surgical implants can alter the underlying structure of the face, providing better balance to the facial features. The specific medical terms mentoplasty and genioplasty are used to refer to the reduction and addition of material to a patient’s chin. This can take the form of chin height reduction or chin rounding by osteotomy, or chin augmentation using implants.
