This beautiful case shows that lip filler never has to look fake.

The truth is that, like all injectable treatments, lip augmentation should always look natural and help to harmonise the face.

We easily spot bad lip treatments because they disrupt the delicate proportions of the face or because someone has chosen to only treat the lips and have ignored the rest of the face.

Not every patient needs lip filler as part of their full-face rejuvenation but if they do it’s essential that the results only enhances their natural features rather than overshadow them.

“Do you offer Lemon Bottle injections?” No, we don’t – and here’s why 🚫🍋

When it comes to aesthetics, safety and professionalism are my top priorities, which is why I do not offer Lemon Bottle injections.

This product currently lacks a CE mark, meaning it doesn’t meet European safety, health, and environmental protection standards. Additionally, there is very limited clinical literature or studies to back up the claims made about its effectiveness, making it a risky choice for patients.

In the world of aesthetic medicine, education, regulation, and evidence-based treatments are essential. Unfortunately, many emerging products like Lemon Bottle don’t meet the rigorous standards required to ensure both safety and results. I believe in offering only clinically proven, safe, and regulated treatments that you can trust.

This is the one thing we wish everyone knew about fillers...

The best fillers are the ones you don’t notice! Fillers should enhance your natural beauty, not change it. The key to great filler work is subtlety – it shouldn’t be obvious that you’ve had a treatment, just that you look fresher, more rested, and confident. 💉

Whether it's adding volume to the lips, softening lines, or contouring the cheeks, you should always strive for undetectable yet stunning results.

The right approach is all about balance, ensuring your features are enhanced in harmony with your natural look. When done right, no one will know you’ve had fillers – they’ll just notice how great you look!

This is the transformative power of strategic injectables! ☝🏼😍

Take a look at the side-by-side results—it's clear they speak for themselves. But here’s the best part: if you saw the woman in the "after" photo, you’d likely never guess she had any treatments done!

This is exactly what injectables are meant to do. The difference should be noticeable to you, but subtle enough that others can’t quite put their finger on it.

In this case, our patient looks refreshed, radiant, and glowing in the "after" photo compared to the "before." It's a subtle enhancement that helps her appear fresher and more balanced without looking overdone.

Did you know by the age of 45, you’ve already lost around 25% of your collagen? 😲

Collagen is the secret to maintaining firm, youthful skin, but as we age, our natural collagen production slows down. By the time you hit 45, you could be missing up to a quarter of this vital protein, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of skin elasticity.

Wondering how to turn back the clock? ⏳

Well, retinol is a powerful tool for boosting collagen production, while treatments like polynucleotides help regenerate and hydrate your skin from within. Microneedling works wonders to stimulate collagen, improving texture and firmness, and peels offer a fresh start by removing dead skin cells to reveal a brighter complexion.

One of the leading causes of dark circles under the eyes is volume loss which leads to sunken eyes and thinner skin, magnifying the appearance of dark circles 👁️⁠

When you look at this patient’s before photo on the top, you can see a slight under-eye groove at the junction of the eyelid and cheek and a darkening of the skin in this area.⁠

The skin in our under-eye area is the thinnest skin on the body, and we can, in fact, “see” into it for a mm or so, making it possible to see the underlying veins and vasculature.⁠
⁠
By placing dermal filler beneath this point and to the surrounding area assists in plumping up the skin and supporting the tear trough to give the smoother, even-toned under-eye appearance that you can see on the bottom photo.⁠

Are salmon s***m injections really worth the hype? 🤔

These naturally occurring molecules work to restore skin health by boosting hydration, improving elasticity, and promoting collagen production.

Whether you're looking to revitalise your face, neck, décolletage, or hands, polynucleotides offer a versatile solution for many areas. Results can be visible in as little as 2-4 weeks, with ongoing improvements as your skin continues to renew from within.

If you’re seeking glowing, youthful skin with long-lasting benefits, polynucleotides could be your new go-to treatment. Swipe to learn more 👉🏼

Prevention is ALWAYS better than cure and looking after the health of your skin is so important whether you have visible concerns or not!

If you're just getting started with skincare and are wondering where to start, these are a few simple 'good skin habits' to adopt:

✨ It'll come as no surprise that one of our best skincare tips is to use and regularly reapply sunscreen every single day. A broad-spectrum sunscreen with both UVA and UVB protection of at least SPF 30 is best.

✨ Use targeted skincare

There's no better way to prevent skin ageing than by adopting a good, medical-grade skincare regime tailored to you. Start by speaking to a professional, having your skin assessed and understanding the best ways that you can support your skin at home with skincare.

✨ Invest in skin quality treatments

Whether it's regular chemical peels to remove dead skin cells and stimulate collagen production or injectables like Profhilo and polynucleotides which plump, hydrate and improve elasticity and firmness, skin quality treatments are a great way to keep skin looking healthy and radiant throughout the years.

✨ Treat your neck as an extension of your neck

The 45-degree angle that you hang your head to look down at your phone causes a repeated squishing of the neck, also called 'tech neck,' resulting in premature folds and wrinkles. Not only should you be applying moisturiser to the neck but you should also be protecting it with sunscreen since the number one cause of premature skin ageing is UV radiation.

Sometimes, it's the slightest adjustments that make all the difference ✨⁠

The magic of this lip filler journey lies in its subtlety - achieving a look that's both understated and almost imperceptible. Lip fillers, when done right, sculpt, balance, and enhance, complementing your natural beauty without taking centre stage.⁠
⁠
The result? Lips that are fuller yet retain their natural charm, avoiding the pitfall of looking overly done. Instead, they exude a soft, youthful plumpness that we just can't get enough of.⁠

Why do pores get bigger with age? And what can be done about it? 💭

As we age, our skin undergoes various changes, one of which is the enlargement of pores. This is due to the loss of skin elasticity and collagen, causing the skin to sag and making pores appear larger. Additionally, accumulated sun damage and a decline in cell turnover can exacerbate the issue.

But there's good news! There are several treatments and skincare routines that can help minimise the appearance of enlarged pores. Let’s walk you through your options 👉🏼

Are you curious about aesthetic treatments, but concerned about the possibility of ending up with an ‘unnatural’ or ‘fake’ look, or even hating the results? This is a common concern among our patients when they initially visit our clinic.

Many patients take considerable time contemplating treatment before taking the step to book a consultation, sometimes even years. They are often deterred by the fear of looking strange or unnatural, possibly influenced by media portrayals of overdone faces or stories of unsatisfactory outcomes shared by friends.

However, we are here to assure you that when you collaborate with a skilled, experienced, and responsible practitioner, this simply won’t be the case.

Our approach revolves around working together with you to achieve a revitalised version of yourself whilst preserving your unique features. This is what we want you to know about unnatural-looking filler results 👉🏼

Cameron Diaz stands as a true icon of our era, ageing with undeniable grace and beauty.

But what's the secret behind her ageless appearance? 🤫

Cameron seems to take a relaxed approach to ageing, accepting her wrinkles rather than fighting them. Still, it's possible that she's had some subtle help along the way. Close observations of her photographs suggest she might have enhanced her features with restoration of volume in her cheeks, and perhaps even undergone rhinoplasty.

Diaz has been open about her past use of anti-wrinkle injections to maintain smooth, firm skin. Whether she continues these treatments is unknown, but her approach to beauty and aging clearly reflects a thoughtful and nuanced philosophy.

Whatever her methods, we think she looks fantastic. Do you agree? Double tap if you do! ❤️

As you navigate your 40s, you might notice subtle—and sometimes not-so-subtle—changes in your skin.

This is often due to the onset of perimenopause and menopause, which can dramatically impact your skin’s texture, elasticity, and overall appearance.

From dryness and thinning skin to an increase in wrinkles and age spots, these shifts can feel frustrating, but they’re completely normal.

Understanding what’s happening to your skin during this phase of life can help you better manage and combat these changes. Here, we'll explore the many skin changes many women face during menopause, along with some of the most effective treatments to keep your skin healthy, radiant, and resilient 👉

Tired of seeing dark circles under your eyes, no matter how much sleep you get? One of the primary culprits behind this stubborn issue is volume loss, which can cause sunken eyes and thinner skin, making dark circles more prominent.

In the patient's before photo (top), you’ll notice a under-eye groove where the eyelid meets the cheek, along with a noticeable darkening of the skin in that area. This is because the skin around our eyes is the thinnest on our body, allowing us to "see" a millimeter or so into it, revealing the underlying veins and vasculature.

By strategically placing dermal filler beneath this area and around the tear trough, we can plump the skin, smooth the contours, and create a more even-toned, youthful under-eye appearance—just like you can see in the after photo (bottom).

Profhilo is a very popular treatment that we carry out in the clinic and one of our favourites to have, too 🤫

We look at the evidence and make decisions based on safety, ethics and results.

Rest assured, the treatments we provide are only ones that we feel comfortable and safe to perform.

You are in good hands ❤️

Non-surgical aesthetic treatments are often promoted alongside beauty treatments. This can trivialise the seriousness of non-surgical aesthetic treatment and downplay the risks involved.

Although some risks can occur with beauty treatments, such as an allergic reaction, the risks associated with non-surgical aesthetic treatments can be far more serious.

These risks can be minimised by seeing an experienced, Regulated Healthcare Professional.
