Face

What treatment creates volume?
New collagen regeneration can be achieved by stimulating your own fibroblast cells to increase collagen production. Causing your skin to produce new collagen will create volume and plump-up sagging tissue. This is the ultimate in true, natural facial rejuvenation.

What areas can be treated?

1. The deep folds between nose and mouth
2. Creases at the side of the mouth
3. Wrinkles in the cheek and/or chin
4. Lines on the forehead
5. Scarring
6. Skin lacking firmness and elasticity
7. A sunken appearance to the face

How does it work?
The product is injected into the skin and there will be an immediate response, as the product fills the depressed area. This initial response is followed by a progressive increase in volume, and with successive treatments the areas will be ‘plumped up’ as the underlying supportive matrix of collagen tissue which was deteriorated with age or has been damaged or scarred is regenerated.

This occurs by stimulating the cells called fibroblasts, in the deeper layers under our skin, that are responsible for manufacturing this supportive matting of our deep tissues that we call "collagen".

Is there any downtime?
No.
The injection requires no surgery, is fairly painless and can be performed as an outpatient procedure in the clinic.
Dependent upon the client, one may see some bruising or swelling around the injection site, but makeup will generally cover that well.

When do I see results?
New collagen production appears slowly and gradually over a period of months, looking natural and healthy.
Collagen stimulation is long term, with results lasting longer than two years.
Usually one maintenance treatment, a top-up injection session, is recommended every two years to maintain the result and compensate for the results of progressive ageing.

How many treatments do I need?
Between 3 and 4 treatment sessions, each about four to six weeks apart, will produce very substantial collagen volume infilling to plump up the skin. We usually use one vial of the collagen regeneration material on each side of the face.

How long does treatment take?
This is a simple series of injections into the deeper layers of the skin, each treatment session taking 30 minutes.

Is it safe?
Very safe: proven in an eight year history of clinical use in Europe, with over one hundred thousand patients already treated.

Why are we not allowed to name this product?
Australian TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) regulations have prevented the naming of this well known treatment as it is deemed to be direct advertising of a "doctor only" medically prescribed S4 medication. It is an extremely safe treatment that has been used successfully in facial cosmetic medicine for many years, providing it is administered by a qualified doctor who has been well trained in the correct technique.
