Belotero
Change the way you age
It's no secret that we want to maintain our youthful appearance and look as good as we feel on the inside. So what happens to us when we age?
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is our own natural moisturiser and is an important substance that makes up the healthy and youthful looking appearance of the skin. Unfortunately, hyaluronic acid diminishes over time.
Today, the good news is that the signs of ageing can be reduced by replacing the lost hyaluronic acid to hydrate and plump up the tissue in the skin.
The BELOTERO® secret
Belotero is a HA dermal filler, specially designed to smoothly integrate into your skin to help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. The result is an even and subtle enhancement to the natural contours of your face, so that you can be assured no-one will guess your secret for looking refreshed and confident.

It becomes you
Unlike other dermal fillers, you won't feel Belotero in your skin. The unique qualities of Belotero mean that whilst you (and your friends) will see the benefits of your naturally enhanced skin, you won't be able to feel the filler (unlike most other dermal filler products.)
Some secrets are definitely worth sharing!
Belotero Treatments
Frown Lines
The '||' shape between your eyebrows when you frown can be softened with Belotero Soft.
'Nose to mouth lines' (Nasolabial folds)
These lines can be the most noticeable of all lines on the face. They can be smoothed away and leave you with a subtle, even result with a combination of Belotero Intense and Belotero Balance.
Cheekbones
To regain the fullness of a youthful face, Belotero Balance or Belotero Intense will help to round the cheekbones.
'Lip lines/smokers lines' (Perioral folds)

'Crow's Feet' (Periorbital lines)
Crow's feet can be reduced and smoothed with Belotero Soft.
The lip border (Vermillion border)
This subtle feature of the border of your lips diminishes as you age. Belotero Soft or Belotero Balance can instantly rejuvenate your lips.
Lips
Whether you want a little moisturising or full, plump lips, Belotero Balance and Belotero Intense are perfect for the lips.
'Mouth to jaw lines' (Marionette lines)
Treating these lines with Belotero can help to instantly provide a cheerful expression.
Back of hands and décolletage
One of the tell-tale signs of ageing is drying and crêping of skin on the backs of your hands and also the décolletage. Bring back that youthful suppleness with Belotero Balance.

Profhilo
‘Everyone is a Masterpiece’
Profhilo is a revolutionary 'beneath the skin' hyaluronic acid moisturising treatment. Unlike wrinkle-reducing and dermal filler treatments, Profhilo stimulates collagen and elastin, attracting water in the deeper layers of the skin.
Profhilo is injected into the skin in a specific pattern depending on the area to be treated. Two treatments are required, 4 weeks apart. The first to stimulate, the second to ‘boost’ and ensure longevity. In some cases, and depending on your initial skin quality, you may benefit from a third treatment, typically 8 weeks from your second treatment. When injected into skin, Profhilo stimulates the skin cell receptors to counteract skin laxity and improve and restore firmness of the skin.
The treatment is suitable for men and women as well as offering skin benefits for patients of all ages.

Platelet-rich plasma injections are an effective and minimally invasion treatment, using your own blood to promote healing.
PRP is rich in growth factors and stem cells, and is commonly referred to as 'liquid gold', given it's appearance and abundance of qualities.

Vampire Facial
Rejuvenation and improvement of your skin
A Vampire Facial is a combination of PRP treatment (above) and Medical Microneedling. This treatment rejuvenates the skin and improves it in both tone and texture.
It can be hugely beneficial to concerns such as acne, facial lines, post-acne, wrinkles, drooping facial contours, and scarring.
Microneedling uses tiny needles to painlessly penetrate the skin to create thousands of micro-perforations. As a result, the skin shifts its natural repair mechanism into high gear and efficiently starts to produce collagen and elastin to repair the micro-perforations.
