Botox
Botox is a prescription treatment that is injected into the muscle, inhibiting muscle contraction. By injecting Botox, these muscles are relaxed and helps to soften wrinkles.
Chemical Peels
A Chemical Peel removes the outer layer of skin, and is used to treat fine wrinkles, acne, uneven skin tone, dryness and hyperpigmentation. A chemical solution is applied to remove layers of skin, revealing the more youthful skin underneath.
Dermal Fillers
Injectable filler is a soft tissue filler injected into the skin at different depths to help fill in facial wrinkles, provide facial volume, and augment facial features: restoring a smoother appearance.
Fat Dissolving Injections
Fat Dissolving Injections consist of a solution of Vitamin C and ions. When they mix, it initiates a chemical process that stimulates the fat cells and causes them to die out, leaving you with a flatter and tighter area. This treatment is ideal for those stubborn fat areas.
IV Treatments
IV Therapy is the administration of delivering nutrients and hydration directly into the bloodstream for immediate effect. Different combinations are available to treat specific needs, whether for a simple detox, mental and physical performance, overall wellbeing and more.
Microneedling
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a cosmetic procedure that involves repeatedly puncturing the skin with tiny, sterile needles. The purpose of this treatment is to generate new collagen and skin tissue for smoother, firmer, more toned skin. Microneedling is used on several parts of the body and can treat various scars, wrinkles, and large pores.
Threads
The threading procedure involves using various lengths of thin acupuncture sterile needles to embed dissolving threads deep underneath the surface of the skin. These wires are placed strategically into the dermis, where it acts as a frame for lifting and tightening loose and sagging skin, and as an added benefit promotes collagen production.
Oxygen Facial
Oxygen Facial works by delivering oxygen to your skin cells, helps to increase cell turnover, and boosts collagen production. It has anti-inflammatory properties, which can reduce the appearance of acne and other blemishes, also reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
Profhilo
Profhilo is an injectable anti-aging treatment designed to address skin that is losing its elasticity, collagen and firmness with age. Increacing the skins moisture and creating a silky rish texture.
Sculptra
Sculptra is a collagen stimulator that stimulates the body’s own collagen production, reinforces the skin’s inner structure, restores its volume, and reduces the deep wrinkles in your skin.

How much filler will I need in my lips?
On average you’ll need around 1ml. However, in some cases you might need more, or you simply want more, and that we can do.
Does it hurt to get filler?
A local anaesthetic is applied, which causes a gentle numbness of the area. In addition to that, the filler also contains lignocaine, which acts as an additional anaesthetic at the area of injection.
