AM I SUITABLE?
We recommend a full consultation with one of our specialists who can recommend if the 8 point face lift can give you the plump and lifted look you desire.
IS THE TREATMENT SAFE?
Dermal fillers and anti-wrinkle injections have been effectively used by many aesthetics clinics for a number of years. The success of their application is often due to the skill and precision of a properly trained and qualified practitioner, who understands the way in which these treatments work with the structure of the face, skin and underlying tissues.
DOES IT HURT?
In some cases a patient can experience some temporary discomfort as the treatment is being administered. Immediately following the procedure, the skin may feel slightly sensitive which will (along with any minor redness and swelling) will usually have subsided within 24 hours.
8 Key areas
​
1 & 2. Cheek Bones/Facial Structure: A small amount of volume in the area enhances the cheekbones and often aids to lift the Nasolabial folds.
3. Tear Trough/Mid-face: Reduces the appearance of tired hollows under the eye area. If you have noticed significant hollows you may need additional product with a softer, more flexible dermal filler to help with this. Your practitioner will tell you if this additional treatment is right for you.
4. Nasolabial fold adjacent to nose: This area often droops or sags with age, so adding volume here can give you a more youthful appearance. Dermal fillers can be a benefit to the patient by filling this area.
5. Mouth Corners: The down turning of the mouth with age gives the appearance of a ‘Down Frown’ that can cause the patients to look sad and aged. Creating some support with dermal fillers can not only lift the face but make patients look happier too!
6. Prejowl area: Loss of volume in the Jaw, Cheek and Chin areas can all contribute to jowl formation, so replacing volume in the hollow along the jawline, along with the other areas of the 8 point lift, can help to reduce or improve jowls.
7. Jawline: As we age, we lose the squareness or angle of the jaw. This treatment helps to lift and support the lower face as the lower face starts to fall forward, contributing to jowls and sagging. A subtle enhancement of the angle of the jaw can help lift the treated areas.
8. Lower cheek/Buccal area: Hollowing of the Buccal area can make patients look older and more gaunt. Treating this area with filler can help with and improve the natural curve and structure of the cheek.
