As our skin ages we gradually begin to lose some of its collagen and fat.  This is what prevents our skin from sagging.  As we get older our skin becomes wrinkled and more lines appear than we want and sometimes the signs of ageing just need a little helping hand. Dermal fillers can help give you back some of that lost volume and help plump it up to make it look more youthful and firmer. Lip fillers using products like Teosyal and Juvederm will give back a nice natural shape and added volume.

We only used FDA approved dermal fillers  which are Juvederm ,Restylane and Teoxane We believe the client deserves the best and it is  a question of QUALITY.

1. Quality – When it comes to quality, not all products are the same and it’s important to understand how they may differ.
2. Research – Aesthetic products should be supported by science that have a proven track record.
3. Heritage – It is important to learn about the heritage, quality and reputation of the company that manufactures the product.
4. Usage – Knowing how widely a product is used by patients and practitioners around the world can help reinforce confidence.
