LIQUID FACELIFT TREATMENT
A key ingredient to maximising the aesthetic outcome of the Liquid Facelift treatment, is ensuring that your cosmetic nurse is highly trained and skilled in performing non-surgical treatments. At Bella Plastic Surgery, we pride ourselves on ensuring that we go far above and beyond the industry standard when it comes to non-surgical training.
Another key element of this the Liquid Facelift treatment is a detailed consultation with you to understand your aesthetic outcomes. Working closely with you, we will recommend a treatment approach that will deliver the results you are seeking.
Finally, we offer only the highest quality treatment options to optimise aesthetic outcomes, including the longevity of your treatment.
We offer effective non-surgical treatment methods that are designed to prevent and reduce the appearance of unwanted fine lines and wrinkles. We use a range of products, one of our most popular treatments includes the use of natural purified proteins.
FACIAL VOLUMISING & CONTOURING
We use a range of gel-like products that are injected into the skin at different depths to provide facial volume and augment facial features.
At Bella Plastic Surgery we use the highest quality products to achieve long-lasting results. These products are comprised of complex sugar molecules which are naturally occurring within your body, and which bind with water to support your skin and increase volume.
There are a range of products, that contain different consistencies which are often broken down into three main categories: –
- Thin products – designed to last 3-6 months
- Mid-range products – designed to last 9-12 months
- Semi-permanent products – designed to last 18-24 months
LINES & WRINKLES
Lines and wrinkles are primarily formed through the repetitive contraction of facial muscles. We use products that inhibit the neurotransmitters, thereby preventing the muscles from contracting which will result in a visible improvement in lines and wrinkles. For example, these products can be used to relax the muscles around the eyes to reduce the appearance of crow’s feet.
