Frequently Asked Questions

Profhilo is primarily a skin hydrator that improves tone, texture, and elasticity. It's ideal for overall skin radiance and fine lines. Profhilo Structura, on the other hand, is designed to restore structure and support in areas where volume loss and skin sagging are more pronounced — such as the midface and jawline.


Profhilo Structura is the first injectable treatment designed specifically to regenerate superficial facial fat. It has been specifically designed to restore facial volume and redefine facial contours in the mid face.


Treatment with Profhilo improves skin tone, texture, hydration and overall radiance. It can help to increase firmness and elasticity and promote healthier and softer-looking skin. Profhilo is most commonly used for facial areas, but can also be used to rejuvenating the neck, decollete, arms, knees and hands.


The Nefertiti Neck Lift is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses strategically placed injections of Botox® along the jawline and down the neck. These injections relax specific muscles that contribute to sagging and jowling, effectively lifting the skin and enhancing definition.


Botulinum toxin type A is the treatment of choice for trapezius hypertrophy and trapezius myalgia.


The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the United States and the International Hyperhidrosis Society (IHHS) have both stated and approved that Botox can help treat excessive sweating and can lower its effect by around 82-87%.


Botox under eyes can help fine crinkles in the right patient. Small studies of lower-eyelid injections report smoother under-eye wrinkles with very low doses. Because the area is delicate, experts recommend conservative dosing and precise placement. This use is off-label.


A non-surgical brow lift raises the brow arch while targeting excess skin around the forehead and upper third of the face. Using skin tightening methods and anti-wrinkle injections such as botulinum toxin, the brow area can be lifted without the need for brow lift surgery.


A refined shape: Botox can alter the nose's appearance by reducing muscle activity, leading to a slimmer-looking nose. Complementing facial features: Results are designed to harmonize with other facial characteristics, avoiding the "operated" look of traditional surgery.


Nose Tip Lift Results Range


The treatment should last for around three to four months. The substances contained in the injections are broken down and absorbed by the body, and so additional treatments will be necessary to maintain your youthful look. A plan for regular follow-up treatments will be put together for you.


This procedure involves injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin into the depressor septi nasi muscle, which can cause the nose tip to droop when contracted. The nose tip is gently lifted by relaxing this muscle, resulting in a more refined and balanced facial profile.


Botox can be used to target the alar base, the area where the nostrils connect to the cheeks. By injecting Botox into the muscles that control nostril flaring, it can help relax these muscles and reduce the appearance of wide or flared nostrils, making the nose look slimmer overall.


Botulinum toxin can be used effectively for the treatment of gummy smile caused by lip dynamics with rarely reported complications. However, the most observed limitation was the temporary duration, which was reported to range from four to six months, and the re-injection of botulinum toxin is usually needed.


During a lip flip procedure, your healthcare provider injects Botox into parts of your upper lip. After about a week, the injections make your lip look fuller or "poutier" without adding any volume to your lip. Lip flips generally look more natural than lip fillers.


Non-Surgical Brow Lift: If you go for non-surgical options like Botox or fillers, the cost is lower, usually between £200 and £600 per treatment. These options are temporary and might need to be repeated every few months.


Glabellar lines can sometimes weigh down your appearance and make you look much older and angrier than you actually are. The most popular non-surgical treatment to correct these lines is Botox. Botox paralyzes the movement of the glabellar muscles, thus creating a smoother and more youthful-looking forehead.


These diagonal wrinkles form due to repetitive muscle movement, often deepening over time and making the face appear more aged. Botox for bunny lines is a highly effective, non-surgical treatment that relaxes the underlying muscles, smoothing out these lines while maintaining natural facial expressions.


Yes, Botox can often effectively address hooded eyes by lifting the eyebrows. By targeting the muscles that pull the eyebrows down, Botox injections create a subtle lift, reducing the appearance of heavy eyelids and giving you a more youthful and refreshed look.


On average, a brow lift with Botox injections lasts three to four months. Some patients notice results beginning to soften after 10–12 weeks, while others enjoy the lifting effect for closer to six months. The duration depends on factors such as injection sites, muscle weakening, and individual metabolism.


These wrinkles are dubbed crow's feet because the lines resemble the claws of a bird. They are a sign of aging and can make you look older than your actual age. Fortunately, Botox® cosmetic injections can help prevent or reduce the appearance of crow's feet.


Botox in the forehead typically lasts from 3 to 6 months depending on individual factors like metabolism, muscle activity, and dosage, with many people finding they need touch-ups every few months to maintain smoothness. With consistent treatments, muscles may "learn" to stay relaxed, potentially allowing for longer intervals between sessions over time


Botox is an effective treatment for reducing frown lines, also known as "dynamic wrinkles," because it temporarily paralyzes the muscles that cause these wrinkles.


DAO Botox, also known as Depressor Anguli Oris Botox, is a cutting-edge technique that targets specific facial muscles to defy the signs of aging. A remarkable transformation takes place by injecting Botox into the Depressor Anguli Oris muscles, which are responsible for the downturned corners of the mouth.


By injecting small amounts of Botox into your chin, we can achieve outstanding chin dimple removal results. It works by causing the area to remain in a relaxed state even when becoming smaller, helping to erase unsightly dimpling which may cause individuals looking aged or worried.


Tear trough fillers (usually hyaluronic acid) typically last 9 to 12 months on average, but can range from 6 months to over a year, depending on metabolism, filler type, injection technique, and lifestyle, with some patients needing touch-ups yearly. The under-eye area's lack of movement helps fillers last longer than in more mobile facial areas.  


Injection: Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers are strategically injected into the nasal tip and surrounding areas to lift and shape the nose. Post-Treatment Care: There is minimal downtime after the procedure, though patients may experience mild swelling or bruising, which typically resolves within a few days.


On average, the results of nose fillers can last anywhere between 6 to 18 months. Over time, the body naturally metabolises the filler, and the treated area gradually returns to its original state. To maintain the desired results, clients may need touch-up treatments every 6 to 18 months.


With dermal fillers for the nose, the results can last up to 18 months, but this all depends on the individual metabolism and lifestyle and as results are relatively temporary, tweaks can be made as your face changes over time, allowing you to maintain a natural look.


Where does lip filler go when it dissolves? Your body will naturally get rid of lip filler material after it dissolves. It won't stay within your body.


Does Lip Filler Dissolve on Its Own? Hyaluronic acid–based fillers (such as JUVÉDERM® or Restylane®) will naturally break down in the body over time and typically last between 6 and 18 months. However, this gradual process isn't immediate.


Russian lip fillers are inspired by Russian nesting dolls, known for their perfectly painted lips. This technique enhances the cupid's bow to create a heart-shaped appearance by adding volume & lift specifically to the centre of the lips, which keeps the sides aligned with the face.


Mid-face fillers add targeted lift to the cheeks and mid-face area for patients losing volume with age. Support in deeper planes smooths transitions, reduces shadowing, and can indirectly soften nasolabial folds and marionette lines. The goal is steady facial contouring that keeps expression natural.


Cheek fillers increase cheek volume and Coolsculpting define your cheekbones. Healthcare providers inject filler into and around your cheeks. The procedure takes from 15 minutes to two hours


The purpose of facial filler injections is to restore lost volume and reduce wrinkles by smoothing out the skin. Facial fillers for the cheeks accomplish this by focusing on the mid-face area. Cheek fillers restore hollow, sunken cheeks and reduced the appearance of sagging skin, wrinkles, and hollow areas.


Jawline fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 5 years, depending on the type of filler used and the amount. For example, Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers generally last around 9-18 months, while Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) fillers can last up to 5 years.


Understanding jowl fillers cost starts with the price per syringe. A single syringe typically ranges from £230 at DH Aesthetics Cinic Kingston and approx £350 in other clinics in the area.


As we age, we start to lose muscle and the fat padding in the cheek area, which often results in sagging on the lower part of the face (jowls), by adding the lost volume we can restore the natural look and lift the contour of the lower face. For someone looking for a gentle enhancement, 1ml might be enough.


Chin fillers usually last around 9–18 months. Longevity depends on the type of filler used, your metabolism, and lifestyle factors. Results fade gradually over time, and most people choose a yearly top-up to maintain definition and balance.


Yes! Visible slimming usually starts around 2-4 weeks after treatment, full results appear in 6-8 weeks, effects typically last 6-8 months, and with repeat treatments, the slimming effect can become more pronounced and longer lasting.


Jelly roll under eye treatment, also known as under-eye Botox, is a non-surgical procedure that uses injections of Botulinum toxin (Botox) to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines under the eyes. The treatment works by relaxing the muscles around the eyes, which can reduce the appearance of the "jelly roll" effect that occurs when someone smiles or squints.

Dermal filler dissolving is a procedure used to break down and remove unwanted or overfilled dermal fillers from the skin. This is typically done using an enzyme called hyaluronidase, which rapidly breaks down hyaluronic acid-based fillers, allowing the body to naturally absorb and eliminate them. The treatment is effective for correcting overfilled areas, asymmetry, or adverse reactions, and helps restore a more natural appearance. 


Choosing between 0.5ml and 1ML of Dermal lip filler depends on your goals and personal preferences. For a subtle enhancement or a slight increase in lip volume, 0.5ML is enough. However, if you want more noticeable results and significant lip augmentation, 1ml is a better choice. 


Botox is best for smoothing fine lines caused by facial expressions and preventing deeper wrinkles. If you're looking to add volume to areas with lines at rest (where muscles aren’t contracting), fillers are the ideal choice.


Botox tends to mostly focus on the upper face, whereas dermal fillers focus mainly on the mid-to-lower. This is because when we lose volume our loosened skin tends to be pulled down with gravity and forms unwanted flats and folds. This makes them popular treatments for areas such as the cheeks, tear troughs, and lips.  


The science behind dermal fillers is rooted in their capacity to replace lost volume and stimulate collagen production, thereby smoothing out the overlying skin. This mechanism makes dermal fillers a formidable choice for mitigating the appearance of smile lines, orchestrating a youthful resurgence in the treated area.
