Fillers
 Give yourself a fresh, young look without resorting to surgery.
An instant, safe way to smooth out lines, restore volume and give you back the confidence of a younger you, with incredible, immediate results.
Using natural products already found in the skin, a series of small injections are used to smooth away feathery fine lines, lift deeper lines and support and add volume to the skin. The products are also effective in subtly enhancing the cheekbones and the jaw line to add definition.
Expert medical practitioners will tailor these procedures to achieve the best results for you. The products are absorbed through a natural process keeping the treatment low risk.
A visit two to three times a year will maintain the younger you.
Are there any long term side effects with fillers?
At Skin Solutions we only use bio-degradable products. This means that they are very low risk and do not have the long term side effects associated with other, permanent, fillers. Side effects experienced are in general things like:- a small bruise to the injection site, a temporary swelling at the site, tenderness for a couple of days etc. The practitioner will explain in full prior to any treatment.
Can the fillers move to other areas?
The products which we use are all licensed and researched over many years. Once injected the product will sit in the space and cannot move or ‘float' elsewhere. Over a period of 3 -8 months on average the tissue will absorb the product and break it down slowly the product will disappear.
Can the product build up in the body?
When injected, the product is attracted to the nerve endings, it is then metabolized and leaves the body completely within 21 days of administration. It is the result of the treatment that lasts 3 – 6 months on average, not the product. Therefore, it is impossible to have a build up of the product.
Is it Dangerous?
The product has been used since the 1960s for medical indications in very high dosages, all with no long term side effects ever recorded. For cosmetic purposes it has been used successfully since the 70’s. It is licensed in 13 countries for cosmetic use and has FDA approval, which is an extremely difficult license to achieve in the USA.
Will it freeze or paralyze my face?
The treatment will have the effect of relaxing the treated muscle allowing the lines to re-hydrate and smooth away. You will still be able to express your face however when your face it at rest the line will be greatly improved if not removed. The area feels exactly the same for the majority of clients. A small percentage reports a very slight restricted feeling in the area on the 2nd to 4th day after treatment.
Will it look obvious ('trout pout')?
The vast majority of clients who have lip enhancement do not want an obvious increase in size but rather a defined boarder which removes the fine lines (smokers Lines) above the lip. Very, very few clients want ‘inflated lips’. At Collagenics we only use bio degradable products which are designed for the correction of the lip area, giving a soft, very natural result. There are other products out there which have long term risks and look very obvious when used, No such products are recommended or used at Skin Solutions.
Will my eyes or eyebrows droop if I have it?
The chance of this happening to a client is about 1 in 2,000.
The only way that this can happen is if the product is either injected into the muscle directly in line above the eye pupil, or more commonly, if the client massages or pushes the area around within the first four days after treatment. If the eye does droop it will last no longer than 3 weeks and will then correct itself.
