Facial aesthetic treatment should begin with assessment rather than a product. Facial proportions, skin quality, muscle movement, previous treatment, medical history and the patient’s own objectives all influence whether a treatment is appropriate and how it should be planned.
Smile Solutions offers a range of facial aesthetic treatments including dermal fillers, Hyalase, Profhilo, Morpheus8, PRP and treatments to soften expression lines.
Repeated facial movement over the years can leave lines that remain visible even when the face is at rest, often across the forehead, between the brows and around the eyes. Where a patient is troubled by these lines, treatment begins with a personal consultation to assess the facial muscles, skin quality and the way you animate, so that any recommendation suits your face rather than following a template.
Where a prescription treatment is clinically appropriate, it is provided only after a face-to-face assessment and prescription by the treating clinician. Results are temporary, and maintenance is needed if you wish to retain the effect. Suitability, risks and alternatives are always discussed with you first.
Dermal fillers are injectable products used to restore or add volume, support selected facial structures and alter contours. Hyaluronic-acid fillers are available with different characteristics for different depths, treatment areas and aesthetic objectives.
Product choice is only one part of planning. Facial anatomy, tissue quality, vascular structures, previous filler and the intended degree of correction are central to safe and appropriate treatment.
Hyalase contains hyaluronidase, an enzyme used to break down hyaluronic-acid filler. It may be considered where filler needs to be reduced or dissolved, including selected complications or unwanted aesthetic outcomes.
Hyalase has its own risks and should only be used following appropriate clinical assessment, with allergy considerations discussed where relevant.
Profhilo is a hyaluronic-acid injectable treatment intended primarily to improve hydration, skin quality, firmness and elasticity rather than create the localised volume associated with conventional dermal filler.
Treatment is planned in stages where appropriate, with clear post-treatment care. Temporary swelling, bruising or small injection-site bumps can occur. Suitability depends on medical history, skin condition and treatment goals.
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to deliver controlled energy into the skin and deeper tissues, with the aim of remodelling and improving skin quality.
Treatment planning includes assessment of skin type, treatment area, contraindications and expected downtime. Detailed aftercare and contraindications should be discussed before treatment so that patients understand how to prepare and what to expect afterwards.
• Deep, targeted treatment – Morpheus8 can work at different depths, reaching up to 8 mm including its thermal profile, allowing treatment to be tailored to different areas and concerns.
• Skin tightening and remodelling – Microneedling and bipolar radiofrequency energy work together to support tissue contraction and skin remodelling.
• Face and body treatment – Different handpieces and treatment tips allow Morpheus8 to be used across smaller facial areas as well as larger areas of the body.
• Highly customisable – Treatment depth, energy and tip configuration can be adjusted according to the area being treated and the desired outcome.
• Minimal downtime – Fractional RF technology allows targeted treatment with a relatively manageable recovery period.
Platelet-rich plasma treatment uses a patient’s own blood, processed to concentrate platelets before the plasma is reintroduced into the treatment area. PRP may be used for selected aesthetic indications, including hair-loss treatment.
