Are you considering injectables treatment?

This innovative procedure can work wonders, but there are several factors you need to consider before booking your appointment to ensure it is the right option for you. Here are a few things you need to think about before getting injectables for wrinkles or other signs of ageing.

Do your homework.

injectables must always be administered by a qualified doctor, but if you would like to learn a little more about their practice, read customer reviews online before booking an appointment and ask for a consultation to meet them face to face. It’s also a good idea to request ‘before and after’ images while you’re there to see what kind of results you can expect.

How does it feel?

Not everyone is comfortable with needles, but when done correctly, injectables treatment for face issues such as wrinkles should be painless. A well-qualified doctor can administer injectables quickly and effortlessly in a few minutes. The amount of injections required depend on the structure of your face, so this will vary from person to person

How long will the results last?

injectables results will usually last for approximately 4-6 months, but this will depend on the number of units that were injected, where the treatment area was and how genetically predisposed your body is to injectables injections

Your lifestyle can also affect the amount of time injectables lasts for. To make your injectables treatment last longer, avoid strenuous exercise and excessive heat within the 24 hours following the procedure, limit the amount of sugar in your diet, protect your skin from the sun and book your next treatment before the results wear off.

How do you choose a clinic?

Choosing the right clinic is  vital, as injectables for wrinkles isn’t something that should be entered into lightly.  All injectables practitioners are qualified doctors, but the products they use will vary. Some injectables treatments are more effective than others, so it’s essential to ask which product your treatment centre uses before booking an appointment to ensure that it will deliver the results you want.

Why a thread lift could be better suited for you than a face lift?

From non-surgical treatment to an actual surgical procedure, both techniques of Thread Lift and Facelift restore youthfulness and revive ageing skin. It is true that both treatments do improve any sagging skin found on the jowls, cheeks, and neck, but they do not substitute for each other.

In this discussion, we will explain the differences between a thread lift vs a facelift to help you decide which might be the best option to correct facial ageing.

Face Lift

This is a surgical procedure that will tighten and lift skin due to a loss in elasticity. This procedure is a more invasive, permanent solution to ageing in comparison to the thread lift.

Many people that opt for having this procedure do so because they can afford it and have enough time to recover afterwards.

Thread Lift

Not to be confused with a traditional facelift, the thread lift thread lift has risen in popularity due to it being non-invasive, with no downtime meaning you can go straight back to work.

A medical-grade threading material will “pull” and “lift” the skin to tighten and reduce wrinkles, without invasive surgery that requires long recovery times. 

Being a low-risk procedure in comparison to a surgical facelift, the only side effects are redness, bruising, and swelling. Not only this but it only takes about 30-40 minutes to perform a thread lift and will target the following areas:

– Jowls and jawline

– Browline

– Under-eye area

– Forehead

– Cheeks

Thread lift vs facelift

A thread lift is less invasive than a facelift and many would say it’s a better, more cost-effective way to have a facelift, appealing to those who want a “quick fix” to their wrinkles and fine lines.

If you’re considering having a thread lift or facelift, it’s important to have realistic expectations. A facelift will not stop you from ageing altogether, however, the results will last for years. The thread lift results commonly last about 2 years and is a much more affordable option.
