Most lip fillers are made of HA (Hyaluronic Acid) which also occurs naturally in our body’s joints, eyes and skin. Once injected, the filler binds with water, creating fullness and volume in your lip. Because HA is a naturally occurring substance in our body, it is broken down gradually over time. There are several brands of HA fillers, TGA approved and available in Australia. Each product varies a little in the manufacturing process giving them each unique properties and uses. They’re designed specifically for lip tissue, providing soft, flexible superior results with minimal swelling post treatment. Every lip is different so there is really no one size fits all when it comes to getting the best results for you. As a rule, older lips often require more restoration, which means addressing the surrounding support tissues as well as the volume loss in the lip. While enhancement in younger lips needs to maintain shape and correct proportions in order to avoid Trout Pout. Injections are done with an extremely fine needle or even a cannula, into the lip body, boarder, philtrum and corners of the mouth. The perception can often be that you need to inject lots of filler into your lips, all the time, and it’s just not true! HA filler can last up to 12months in the lips, so the key to a beautiful, natural result is to gradually build up the right amount of filler, allowing the lip tissue to expand, and then tapering off to maintenance treatments. Individual variations will ultimately decide how quickly you break the product down. What this means for a new lip client, is that I’ll typically see them 3-4 times, using 0.5 – 1ml per treatment, in the first 7-9 months so we can slowly build up the right amount of filler for their lips. Once we have that, it’s all about maintenance and my clients will see me once a year for a top up.

Your skin’s top layer (Stratum Corneum) is essentially made up of dead skin cells. These cells regenerate about every 28 days and can stay on your skin if not properly cleaned. There are three types of peels that I recommend for my clients depending on what’s going to give them the best results. Some clients only require a mild peel which I’ll use a lactic or a glycolic peel where the exfoliation is microscopic. The treatment has no pain and leaves your face feeling a little dry for a few days. For other clients I’ll recommend a deeper peel that penetrates the upper part of the 2nd layer of skin (Epidermis). Here I’ll use a Jessner Peel which is a slightly more uncomfortable procedure and leaves your face with mild peeling for 4-5 days. And some clients really need a deeper, more serious peel to cleanse their pores and re set their skin. For these clients I’ll use a TCA peel which is a little more uncomfortable and you’ll shed skin for anything up to a week. Peels have some great benefits for your skin including; • Clear your skin’s pores and relieve congestion • Reduce pimples • Smooth your skin’s texture • Lift and lighten its pigmentation • Improve your skin’s overall radiance

This medical grade laser is suitable for people with sensitive skin and targets and heats the fine blood vessels, stimulating collagen that help alleviate signs of redness. It’s a gentle treatment that I combine with our LED heal light which speeds up the healing process and reduces inflammation. Each treatment takes 30-45 minutes and I recommend 4-6 treatments to get the best results. It’s not a painful treatment and downtime is minimal.

Using a cannula to minimise bruising, I use a thick dermal filler that mimics bony prominence's and reduces puffiness. Because of the thickness of the filler, this technique has great longevity, bringing a fabulous definition and shape to your cheeks and jawline. It’s not appropriate for those with very fine, thin skin.
