Dermal fillers

Celebrities such as the Kardashians, Megan Fox and Renee Zellweger

swear by the use of dermal fillers to fight off the signs of ageing.

Already a popular cosmetic treatment, dermal fillers will continue to

triumph in 2017.

What are dermal fillers used for?

Dermal fillers are used to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, restore volume

loss due to ageing, or enhance volume in the case of the lips and

cheeks. This treatment can also be used for scars caused by acne,

trauma or surgery. Dermal fillers have virtually no long-term risks

and produce a soft, natural look with little pain or downtime.

Other areas where fillers can be used are in the hollows around the

eyes and in the nasolabial folds. They can also be placed in a deeper

skin plane to plump the skin and restore youthful vigour. This is

commonly used to enhance the appearance and plumpness of the

cheeks and other areas where volume is flattering.

One of the main signs of ageing is volume depletion in the skin,

especially around the eyes, temples, mouth and in the cheeks,

along with fine lines and wrinkles. As a response to these

stubborn creases in our skin caused by facial expressions, gravity

or sun damage, Dr Anh has made sure to incorporate anti-ageing

treatments into her offered services.

Bigger lips with fillers

Most people choose fillers to give them fuller lips. Fillers can be used

to create a flattering pout suited to your appearance and face. Dr Anh

will strive to make your results appear natural, enhancing the natural

beauty that you possess.

Anti-wrinkle injections

Another favourite amongst Hollywood Celebrities is anti-wrinkle

injections. Formerly known as Botox, anti-wrinkle injections have

now been present in society for over a decade yet still remain at the

forefront of cosmetic treatments.

What are anti-wrinkle injections used for?

Anti-wrinkle injections can be used to remove excessive expression

lines and wrinkles (e.g. frown lines, smile lines); achieve facial

slimming through reducing muscle mass at the side of the jaw;

non-surgical eyebrow lifting and reshaping; upper neck lifting; and

to smooth the jawline.

Skin needling

With raving fans such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Naomi Watts, skin

needling is expected to become even more popular in 2017. Who

doesn’t love tighter pores, reduced fine lines and wrinkles, a smoother

and more even complexion with minimal downtime?

Introducing Dermapen

Dermapen uses multiple needles that vertically pierce the skin with

an automatic vibrating function. When moved across the skin’s

surface, the Dermapen stimulates natural collagen reproduction,

while allowing fine channels to be created in the skin. The channels

can carry up to 80% more topical nutrients, allowing for treatment

delivery deep into the skin’s fibroblasts to feed the underlying cells

found in the dermis and basal layer. This increased absorption

of active ingredients into the skin stimulates repair and faster-

resurfacing results.

Thread Lift

As we age, the tissues in our face begin to naturally descend as we

produce less collagen and the muscles and ligaments in our face

start to weaken. As a result, fat can droop making our face look

older. Although surgery is highly regarded to help restore a youthful

appearance, it can be a little daunting and sometimes unnecessary.

An effective non-surgical alternative is a thread lift.

Are you a candidate for a thread lift?

If you have small folds where the cheek meets the upper lip or in

the jowl region, a thread lift can provide an immediate improvement.

However, the best way to find out if a thread lift is the right treatment

for you is to book a consultation. Our experts will be able to guide you

on your skin journey.

The practice type and practioner you choose will influence price, and more importantly, the overall results of your treatment.

Pricing variations

Depending on your particular concerns and desired outcomes, Dr Anh

may recommend a combination of injections. A consultation will be

necessary to determine which treatment will best help you achieve

your desired outcomes.

The main difference between anti-wrinkle injections and dermal

fillers is that anti-wrinkle injections relax muscles while dermal

fillers fill lines and enhance or add volume to facial contours and lips.

For this reason, the two treatments may be used together to achieve

the best result.

Choosing a Practice and Treatment Provider

Choosing a practice and treatment provider with whom you feel comfortable is an essential part of the treatment process. Many franchise-

owned skin clinics offer short-term benefits like a free consultation and reduced prices. Unfortunately, this often comes at the cost of the

experience and quality of the results.

PRACTICE A

Franchise Owned Skin Clinic

Larger, franchise-owned skin clinics will

often offer lower prices, free consultation

and no booking fee. This is made possible

because the consultation provides no

advanced 3D examination and will more

often than not be conducted by a nurse and

not a doctor. In addition to this, treatment

is often performed by a nurse and not a

doctor. In many cases, there will not be a

doctor present.

PRACTICE B

Dr Anh’s Medispa

At Dr Anh’s Medispa, all of our consultations

and treatments have a qualified doctor

present. With a depth of experience in

cosmetic skin treatment and injections, we

understand the difference one millimeter can

make, taking everything into account from

the shape of the patient’s eyes, eyebrows,

and bone structure, to the precise dose

required to achieve the best possible result

and reduce incurred cost.

PRACTICE C

Plastic Surgeon

Many plastic surgeons offer a range of

non-surgical cosmetic treatments, such as

anti-wrinkle injections or dermal fillers. If

you are paying the premium price, you want

to ensure you are in fact being consulted

and treated by the surgeon themselves and

not a nurse. Many established surgeons

offer cosmetic injectable treatments as

a passive side income, or a means to

transition to retirement.

Dr Anh Nguyen Plastic Surgery & Medispa offers a comprehensive range of surgical and non-surgical treatments. When you visit Dr Anh, you

are getting the best of both world’s in the cosmetic space.
