3 Areas You Didn’t Know Dermal Fillers Could Be Used

Austin Brewer Facial Aesthetics Dermal fillers Harley Street, Bournemouth & Poole

Dermal fillers are incredibly versatile.  This is why we thought we would let you know 3 Areas You Didn’t Know Dermal Fillers Could Be Used.  They can be used in different ways and places depending on the target placement area and the thickness (viscosity) of the dermal filler.

Did you know that dermal fillers can be used in other areas and not just on your face? –  3 Areas you didn’t know dermal fillers could be used…

Have you had facial treatments? but maybe your neck, décolletage or hands are still giving the game away about your age?  Austin Brewer can provide the answer.  3 areas you didn’t know dermal fillers could be used.  Straightforward treatments that are long-lasting and will turn back the clock for these areas instantly.

The dermal fillers that are used at Austin Brewer are 100% hyaluronic acid.  This is a substance that is naturally present in the body (your eyeballs, joints and skin).  It can hold 1000 times its weight in water, which is why it makes such an excellent product to rejuvenate and replace lost volume.  Fillers are all naturally broken down by the body over time.  

Dermal fillers will fill wrinkles and add volume to soft tissue.  A series of small injections of the gel are precisely placed to deposit the filler to where it is needed.   These work to replace the lost collagen and elastin, which experts have agreed generally happens by our late 20’s! Worried that dermal fillers might move or migrate? read more here.

A straightforward procedure

With very little downtime, it’s no wonder that fillers are an optimum way to achieve youthful and glowing skin without the inconvenience of having to adjust your day-to-day life.  Having an injectable filler treatment is a quick and straightforward procedure when carried out by a medical professional who is proficiently trained.  

We always advise against trying to get a cheap deal when you are looking for an injectable treatment as unfortunately, you will always get what you pay for.  This mostly means a cheap product being used that is not prescribed for you and unsatisfactory results from bad injection technique.  Sadly we have seen far too many clients after having filler from a cheap deal, only to ask if we can help correct it. 

Removing dermal filler

Removal of filler is possible but does have its risks and complications too.  It is not something to consider lightly.  So please don’t think, “I can get cheap filler and if I don’t like it I can simply have it removed” This is not the way to think when you are considering an injectable treatment.  The incorrect placement of filler can have devastating effects before you even think about having it removed.  It is worth remembering, that there are far fewer practitioners who are competent at removing filler than those who are willing to inject you in the first place!  

Please stay safe and only use a reputable fully insured and trained medical professional.

Increasingly we have seen our clients are addressing ageing issues that go beyond just the usual facial area.  The neck, décolletage and backs of the hands have in the past been mostly overlooked.  However, with modern techniques and improvements in products, these procedures are deservedly facing a surge in popularity.  Often it’s the small details that can make a big contribution to your overall look.  With no downtime, these non-invasive treatments can literally turn back the clock.

The 3 areas you didn’t know dermal fillers could be used

Neck • Décolletage • Hands

We all know what the combination of ageing and the sun can do to our skin.  Unfortunately, our necks, décolletage and backs of our hands are in the sun just as much as our faces.   But most of the time they simply get overlooked when we apply SPF.  This can result in premature age and sun spots too (we can also provide treatment for these).  Combined with the lines and wrinkles, this can make these areas appear much older than the rest of you.  

The following information about 3 areas you didn’t know dermal fillers could be used.  All areas can be improved with a simple anti-ageing dermal filler treatment & safe removal of sun and age spots.

NECK LINES

Neck lines appear over time and are a natural part of the ageing process.  Along with gravity, our necks begin to suffer the unwanted effects of lines and sagging.  However, that’s not to say that we can’t give your neck a little helping hand and turn back the clock.  We are prone to our necks ageing faster due to the dermis being thinner.  

Neck wrinkles are also becoming an issue in our modern age due to repeatedly looking down at our phones otherwise known as…Tech neck.  This new term has been used as a reference to how long we all spend looking down at our devices, and sadly our bodies, one way or another pay the price.  Alongside smoking, this seems to be one of the biggest contributors to the lines arriving on our necks prematurely. 

Treatment for the neck is straightforward and long-lasting.  Using dermal fillers lines on the neck can be smoothed away, leaving the neck looking instantly rejuvenated and youthful.  There is also another treatment for the neck lines, which involves botox, this will also help with the look of lines and “turkey neck” which happens due to sagging platysma muscles.  Both of these treatments provide excellent results in dealing with neck lines.

DÉCOLLETAGE 

Decolletage or Décolleté this delicate area is all too often overlooked until one day the unloved area looks back at you in the mirror and you realise how neglected it has been.   The wrinkles that appear on your décolletage are due to a mixture of factors.  The main ones are age, sun exposure, gravity and diet.  All of these will have a contributory factor in the breakdown of the collagen and elastin in the middle layers of your skin. 

The same as the neck, the décolletage area is also prone to age and sun spots.   These sun and age spots can also be simply treated in the clinic.  When the skin is also creased and crepey it can make the skin in this delicate area look much older.  With a dermal filler treatment, the whole décolletage area will show a vast improvement.  The results will leave you with a completely rejuvenated appearance of the skin.  Treatment is long-lasting and will enhance the appearance of the décolletage area.

HAND WRINKLES

Hand wrinkle treatment with dermal fillers for hand wrinkles shows instant results.  Along with the neck and décolletage, the hands are another area we simply don’t pay enough attention to.  But the hands can show our age just as much as our faces. 

Our hands are put through a lot on a day-to-day basis so they deserve some special attention.  The skin is thin on the backs of our hands.  The ageing process & sun exposure result in loss of volume and again those annoying sun and age spots.  

When you have dermal fillers administered for hand wrinkles you will be amazed at the difference this simple procedure can make.  Plumping out the appearance of any raised veins, and generally smoothing out the areas that have lost volume.  The results are always very effective and pleasing.

At Austin Brewer aesthetics we use only the very best clinically proven dermal fillers.  Juvederm is always our filler of choice as it consistently delivers the smoothest, most natural-looking looking and longest-lasting results.

Removal of sun and age spots as mentioned above is another treatment that Austin can offer in the clinic.  Simple cryotherapy will eliminate these unwanted marks and the skin will once again look fresh and blemish-free.  Ask for more information when you book your dermal filler treatment for complete skin rejuvenation.

Other improvements that will help

Apply moisturiser

Drink plenty of water

Always wear SPF – every day

Try to limit time spent looking down at mobile phones etc

Stay out of the sun during the hottest part of the day

Wear a hat in the sun as this has the bonus of protecting your face and neck.  If the brim is wide enough it will also protect your décolletage.

One last, but very important thing to note…

Unfortunately and strangely dermal fillers are not regulated in the UK.  So essentially anyone can buy them and start injecting.  Scary thought.  So we strongly advise you to only see a medical professional to administer any kind of injectable treatments – especially dermal fillers, as the complications that can arise from poor injection technique and incorrect placement are terrible and can be life-changing.  So please do your research, ask questions and stay safe.
