Do you sometimes wish that you could stop the clock? The years we have lived while giving us fantastic experiences and memories can leave their mark on our appearance.
When looking back on photographs of our youth there is a vitality and smoothness to our looks that begins to wear with the passage of time. The reason for this is biological in that as we pass into our late 20s our bodies stop producing collagen.
Aesthetic treatment to recapture youthful skin
It is collagen that is responsible for the volume of our skin, giving youth its fresh-faced plumper skin. From the point at which our bodies stop producing collagen our skin then starts to lose more year by year.
Collagen is a protein that supports and maintains the structure of the body, and which gives it elasticity. As this decreases it has an effect on the elasticity of the skin, the result is the formation of lines and sagging features.
While this is part of the natural ageing process many people find these changes to their appearance affect their confidence.
While stopping the clock on time itself may be impossible, recapturing some of the vitality of youth and bringing volume back to the face is possible.
Treating facial wrinkles with dermal fillers
Dermal fillers deliver fantastic results with no need for surgery. Using hyaluronic acid, dermal fillers rejuvenate the face by bringing volume back to the areas that are sagging or have become lined.
As with all aesthetic treatment it is vitally important that sensitive work to the face is carried out by a qualified professional.

A simple procedure that should not result in any pain or side effects, dermal fillers will deliver long lasting results quickly.
