As the injections are viewed as a medical treatment, they should be performed by a qualified professional in a medical environment. At the clinic, our team of highly experienced and highly qualified nurse prescribers ensure that every treatment we complete is safe, and of a high professional standard.

Yes, this is possible and completely up to you. Many of our patients who travel long distances have their consultation and receive treatment on the same day.

Filler enhancement is very different from surgery as there is little to no downtime after treatment. It is expected to have a red or shiny appearance on the jaw due to the injections, however this will settle after a couple of hours, after which you can safely apply makeup.

Typically, you can expect results to last around a year to 18 months before the body reabsorbs the hyaluronic acid and then repeat injections would be required. This can vary from person to person, depending on the age of the patient, their metabolism, how much exercise they do regularly, the normal blood flow to the face and if they smoke.

For example, younger patients tend to typically have a faster metabolism and increased blood flow to the face, so the filler may last shorter as their body would reabsorb the filler quicker, compared to a patient with a slower metabolism. Everyone is different and during your consultation we will discuss this with you to ensure full honesty and transparency with your results.

To recommend the best treatment plan tailored to you, all this will be covered with full transparency in your consultation with your practitioner.

Pricing starts from £400/ml. Offering £300/ml for any additional top-ups between 3 to 6 months after initial treatment. The quantity of the filler needed is determined by the intensity of the result you would like to achieve; the cost is then worked out based on how much dermal filler is needed.

This depends on the desired results you’re looking for. Some patients absorb filler far quicker than others, so may require more or less filler. This is due to our genetic makeup. During your consultation, you will be advised by your practitioner with the right treatment plan for you. We do recommend further top-up treatments in the future, to maintain your desired appearance.

Results can be seen right away, however, there may be localised swelling around the injected areas for a day or two. If unexpected swelling continues, please get in contact with your practitioner.

You may experience tenderness or soreness after your treatment, however any swelling should reduce within a few days. These side effects are completely normal and do not present concern. To help the treated area heal, avoid touching your jaw, wearing makeup immediately after treatment or partaking in physical exercise in the days following your treatment.

Every patient’s experience of pain is different, however we will try our best to make the treatment as comfortable as possible for you by using a local anaesthetic before treatment to reduce discomfort. Bruising around the injection site is possible, only a small percentage of patients develop minor bruising. If bruising occurs, it is usually apparent at day 2-3 and will typically resolve over 5-10 days. We are exceptionally experienced with needles to be as gentle and pain-free as possible.

Fillers are only as safe as the individual administrating them. We use the highest-grade sterile equipment and specialist trained nurse prescribers. We are fully insured and professionally qualified to administer fillers, keeping up to date with advanced courses and techniques to give you a unique tailored service.

You may experience minor lumps, swelling or puffiness from treatment which will reduce in 1 to 2 days after treatment. Due to the delicate area being treated, these side effects are completely normal and may last for a few days.

As the filler is non-permanent, any side effects will improve and heal with time. If you’re concerned you can visit us or give us a call for advice.

Ageing is individual, so there is no right time to get fillers. If you begin to notice subtle changes, such as your makeup no longer looking right, it may be as a result of ageing. We recommend no one under the age of 18 receives fillers.

It’s possible to instantly dissolve hyaluronic acid fillers using the same enzyme the body uses to break down its own natural hyaluronic acid in the skin. However, outside of emergencies we recommend waiting at least 4 weeks after treatment to dissolve fillers to ensure you’ve fully recovered.

Currently, no thorough research has been undertaken to conclude the side effects of fillers in pregnant women. For this reason, we do not advise jawline shaping procedures during pregnancy or breast-feeding.

The treatment is recommended for people between the ages of 18 and 60. Unfortunately, anyone under the age of 18 cannot receive this treatment.

It is against our Good Medical Practice ethics code and guidelines to definitely commit to treatments from emails and photos. For accurate advice and a tailored treatment plan, we ask for you to make a consultation appointment with us so we can provide the best service for you.
