Some non-surgical procedures can soften certain signs of ageing, restore volume or alter facial contours. The decision should start with an individual assessment that clarifies goals, alternatives, contraindications, expected duration and possible complications. No procedure is risk-free or can guarantee a specific outcome.
Facial Aesthetics
The available procedures have different indications and risk profiles. Their suitability and performance depend on a prior clinical assessment:
- Botulinum Toxin (Botox)
- Hyaluronic Acid
- 15% TCA Peel
- Thread Lifts
Facial Harmonisation
'Facial harmonisation' is a broad term for different procedures intended to change volume, contour or proportions between areas of the face. It is not a single technique. The plan may include one or more approaches, or conclude that no intervention is indicated, after considering anatomy, health, expectations and risks.
Guide to treatment
Goals that can be assessed
- Softening expression lines or dynamic wrinkles in selected areas.
- Restoring or harmonising volume and contour with hyaluronic acid, when indicated.
- Assessment of skin texture and quality to identify suitable procedures.
- Facial planning integrated with the smile, respecting individual proportions and features.
Expected duration
The duration of the appointment and procedure depends on the areas and technique. Results are temporary and vary with the product, dose, area, metabolism and individual response. The timing of reassessment and any maintenance is set out in the plan.

Frequently asked questions
What happens at the first facial aesthetics appointment?
Goals, anatomy, health, medication and previous treatments are assessed. The professional explains alternatives, limitations, risks, aftercare and costs before any decision is made.
Are botulinum toxin and hyaluronic acid the same thing?
No. Botulinum toxin is a medicine used to temporarily reduce the activity of selected muscles. Hyaluronic acid is a filler material used for volume or contour in specific situations.
Are the results permanent?
No. Duration varies with the treatment, product, dose, area and individual response. Maintenance should be decided clinically rather than simply by the calendar.
Does the procedure hurt?
There may be discomfort during application and temporary tenderness, redness or swelling afterwards. Ways of managing discomfort are explained according to the technique.
Are there risks and side effects?
Yes. Even minimally invasive procedures can cause side effects and, rarely, serious complications. Assessment, consent and prompt access to the professional when warning signs arise are essential.
Who should not have these treatments?
Contraindications vary with the product and procedure. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, local infection, diseases, allergies and medication must be disclosed so an individual decision can be made.
When can the final result be seen?
It depends on the procedure. Some effects appear early and settle over days or weeks; initial swelling may affect how the result looks. The professional will advise when reassessment is due.
How much does facial aesthetic treatment cost?
The cost depends on the treatment and areas to be treated. At the appointment, we explain the recommended option and provide a cost estimate.
