Any hope for those who metabolize fillers too quickly? I spent a few thousand dollars for restalyn

Filler metabolism is an interesting topic
Aug 31, 2022

Hello there! Fillers are a wonderful volumising tool! Understanding there exact metabolism is quite variable and largely based on clinical judgment (guessing) and averages. In practice, a good high-quality dermal filler (like restylane) should integrate with your own tissue and become part of you. This aligns with more natural outcomes to both see and feel. Patients often may feel that they “Burn through filler” but this is not likely the case, largely when one can no longer feel a mass of…

What’s the best treatment option for my under eyes?

Fluid under the eyes
Aug 28, 2022

Hello there!
The under eye area can be such an annoyance for people. What I can see in the photo looks largely like a collection of lymphatic fluid. As we spend a quarter to a third (the lucky ones) of our lives sleeping, this gives the opportunity of the fluid to gather. Lymphatic fluid relies on muscular contraction to move. Genetics and other factors certainly play a role here to though. The muscles under the eye are quite thin and other than intense squinting, the process of draining…

How many ml of hyaluron do I need per eye to remove these dark circles?

Dark Circles have many causes
Aug 28, 2022

Hello there and thank you for your question!
Dark circles can arise from a number of causes! When using filler under the eye its goal is not to remove dark circles caused by pigmentation, but rather to correct a volume deficiency that is lending to the creation of shadows in the eye area. Every person is different and thus volume replacement will need to be decided by the medical professional that is examining and treating you!
Its important to note, that often you will be examined and…

What are the pros and cons of using a cannula with Profhilo?

Profhilo with a Cannula, no need
Aug 28, 2022

Hello There,
Firstly, I am a massive profhilo fan! What it does for skin quality is unparalleled! I am sure you will love it too!
Profhilo is a deep dermal treatment! The Dermis is the second layer of your skin, The dermis is similar in structure to a mattress and it supports the epidermis (top layer of skin, what you see & feel from the outside) As the dermis ages the “Mattress” can become less efficient and less structured. Therefore by putting profhilo into the Dermis, the high quantity…

Are fillers safe in areas with previous Lower Blepharoplasty?

In the right hands yes!
Aug 14, 2022

Safety is pivotal! With or without previous surgery safety is essential. This procedure is largely done with a cannula. Cannulas are blunt devices that tend to move around vessels, thus radically improving safety. It will be up the discretion, techniques and experience of your injector. But this procedure is possible post blepharoplasty. Assuming you are a good candidate for tear trough.
Hope that helps!!

Damage from filler/hyaluronidase – what can I do?

There is lots of hope
Aug 14, 2022

When we use filler under the eyes it has to be below the muscle or it can really look like it shouldn’t be there. Getting it dissolved was likely the right choice. But this doesn’t mean it cannot be done correctly in the future.
There are other options to tighten that skin and nourish it! Using retinol and eye serums is really useful for your day to day maintenance. But also the Sue of PRP/meso therapy help with maintaining youthfulness. Then you can look at microneedling, or even bet…

What are my options for horizontal neck lines?

Hi Jenna
Jul 12, 2022

Good afternoon Jenna,
Neck lines have a lot of options to help you reduce them, as the skin folds in the same places over and over, they will require maintenance to keep their visibility down. Your focus needs to be on strengthening the skin in this area. Using Vitamin A (retinol/retinoids) can help, and its something you can use at home and several nights a week.
Further treatments such as micro needling, Morpheus 8 can really help. We do use dermal filler in a “strings of pearls”…
