Botulinum toxin injections, such as Botox and Bocouture, relax the muscles in your face to smooth out lines and wrinkles, these anti wrinkle injections are regulated prescription-only medicines. As a registered nurse, I will use a tiny, fine needle to inject a small amount of the toxin into your face.

The toxin essentially blocks the signals between your nerves and your muscles. As the signal is blocked, your muscles cannot contract and they become relaxed. This helps to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and lines on your face in this area. Wrinkles and lines are caused by repetitive contraction of muscles in your face over time.

Dermal Fillers:

Dermal fillers are mostly used to replace lost volume and add more definition to the face. As a nurse, I can effectively carry out all fillers safely, ensuring nothing but comfort for my clients.

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Dermal Fillers - HA is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain hydration and volume. HA fillers are made from a form of hyaluronic acid and, when injected, can attract and hold water. The HA adds volume to the treatment area. The effects of HA fillers are instant and generally last six to 18 months, depending on the extent of your concern and the product used.

Lips – Dermal fillers can used to restore lost plumpness, and thin lips when smiling or the disappearing lip, creating a more defined lip shape vermillion border to accentuate lip liner and lipstick..

Russian lip technique - The lips will be shaped to lift or flip the lip, rather than add excessive volume. We also call this lip tenting or the pillar technique and it can enhance the cupid’s bow without adding a pronounced side profile or more volume to the lip border.

Cheeks – Fillers can help restore youthful plumpness by lifting the cheekbones and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Cheek fillers can eliminate the problem of sunken cheeks.

Nasolabial folds – The smile creases or lines that get deeper with age and can make us look tired which when lifted gives an instant boost to the face.

Chin – To help with ‘weak’ chins or dimpling and enhance the side profile.

Marionette lines - The lines from the corners of the mouth that make us look grumpy and sad can be lifted and also soften any jowl.

Tear troughs – Tired heavy eyes due to the hollows can be lifted with a combination of cheek and lower eyelid dermal fillers.

Nose – Nonsurgical rhinoplasty to help smooth contour irregularities particularly a bump in the dorsum of the nose.
