Flawless skin is universally desirable.  Patient satisfaction is often limited when only botulinum toxin and filler treatments are provided and the skin in its entirety is ignored.

Addressing skin quality and texture is fundamental to healthy beautiful skin.  It requires an attentive and patient specialist to examine and educate his/her patient.  The process of skin rejuvenation can take time to achieve depending on the patient’s baseline skin health and their desired goals. 

Your hyaluronic acid reservoir level is often greatly depleted by the time several skin ageing signs are present.  Rebuilding this reservoir to healthy levels of hyaluronic acid so that cellular rejuvenation processes can occur may take more than one treatment in the initial rejuvenation process.  Your skin’s cellular mechanisms are greatly enhanced when hyaluronic acid is present at appropriate levels.

Without appropriate levels of hyaluronic acid in our skin, various signs of skin ageing occur and becomes clinically evident.  These can be categorized into visible, topographical and mechanical manifestations.

For those with firm, beautiful radiant skin, a 9-monthly treatment is recommended for retaining skin condition and preventing ageing insults. 

For those with clinical aged skin from chronically depleted reservoirs, repeat treatments 4-6 monthly will allow for baseline HA reservoirs to rebuild to a state where skin healing can take place.  Each early treatment adds a 20% baseline onto the previous treatment.  This can then be followed by 9 monthly retaining treatments.
