Volume Enhancement & Replacement
Facial ageing is a process driven by the combined effects of bone, fat, muscle, and skin changes, exacerbated by gravity and genetics. Bone volume decreases, leading to a loss of structural support and creating hollows. Fat pads shrink and shift, causing volume loss in some areas and sagging in others, while skin loses elasticity, thins, and develops wrinkles and sagging.
Varying forms of injectable Hyaluronic Acid can combat ageing by replenishing lost volume, which restores youthful contours and smooths wrinkles caused by ageing skin. They work by adding volume to areas like the cheeks and lips, reducing the appearance of fine lines and deep creases, and filling hollows for a refreshed look.
Volume enhancement and facial contouring can be used to achieve a more harmonious and balanced facial appearance. Product can be used to define and enhance features like the cheekbones, jawline and chin, creating a more sculpted appearance. It can also be used to achieve facial symmetry and balance by harmonising the different features of the face.

• Cheeks
• Lips
• Marionette lines
