FILLERS
Treatments with fillers are some of the easiest and most immediate
ways to eliminate unwanted lines such as smoker’s lines or
a down turned “sad” mouth. Impressions of beauty changes
over time, as do our faces as we age. We have products that can
enhance our assets and reduce the lines that make us look tired,
sad and older. At The Skin Institute we offer not only the latest
fillers but also safe fillers. Human Collagen (no test patches
required and minimal down time) as well as the latest in Hyaluronic
Acids are both natural components of your skin structure.
Different Fillers are for different facial concerns.
All fillers can:
- help shape facial contours such as cheeks and chin,
correcting deep folds i.e. nasolabial folds (run from the nose
to the corners of the mouth)
- give a lip line or definition or fuller more voluptuous
lips
- correct fine lines around the eyes and ‘smokers lines’ around
the mouth
- fill scars or impressions of the face.
Advantages of Filling Agents:
- No pre-testing is required as the products are non-animal.
- Results are instant.
- You have the choice to continue or change your treatments
to suit your individual requirements.
- A variety of products help to meet your individual needs.
- All products used are T.G.A. approved.
What are Hyaluronic Acid Fillers?
A range of fillers are used to restore and enhance facial beauty.
Filler treatments effectively reduce the appearance of unwanted
wrinkles, add contours and create volume, and rejuvenate the skin.
Fillers are a gel based on hyaluronic acid, a substance that naturally
exists in your body. The gel is injected just under the skin and
restores volume and structure. The safety and efficacy of these
fillers is supported by extensive clinical documentation making
it the first choice for aesthetic practitioners worldwide. The
benefits are immediate and long lasting without being permanent,
giving you the freedom of choice to maintain the effect.
The Benefits of Fillers
Safe – Our fillers are the most studied and documented dermal
fillers in the world with comprehensive studies that support the
safety and efficacy of the product. They are also the first hyaluronic
acid (HA) dermal fillers to pass the FDA (Food and Drug Administration)
standards for safety and efficacy in the USA and are TGA (Therapeutical
Goods Administration) approved in Australia. Fillers are based
on pure non-animal hyaluronic acid, therefore the risk for hypersensitivity
reaction is minimal.
Natural – Fillers give natural looking results. It does
not involve the use of toxins that affect nerves in your face so
your looks remain under control. These fillers closely resemble
the hyaluronic acid that naturally occurs in your body, making
them non-permanent and biodegradable.
Effective – A treatment with fillers provides an easy way
to stay in control of your looks. The result of a single treatment
can be seen instantly and may last up to one year. As a fast, non-surgical
procedure with little discomfort or downtime you can get on with
living.

WRINKLE REDUCTION TREATMENTS
We use only Allergan’s wrinkle reduction agents, the product
that has been approved for use for the longest time in the world.
This product is a great treatment for the reduction of frown lines,
forehead lines and crows feet. There is no down time and in a few
days you will look rested and relaxed. It is a treatment suitable
for both men and women and is a walk in-walk out treatment. It
is a natural purified protein and has been widely tested and used
for over 12 years world wide. It has been used safely and effectively
in hundreds of thousands of patients for various medical uses.
Many facial wrinkles occur from the repeated facial expressions
such as frowning or squinting. The product works by relaxing the
facial muscles that cause these frowns, leaving the skin smoother
and unwrinkled.
We will determine exactly where to to use the product to achieve
the best possible results. No anaesthetic is required. The treatment
takes approximately 10 minutes and most patients describe the discomfort
as a sting, lasting only seconds. After the injection, it takes
2-3 days for the product to begin taking full effect, and full
effect is seen at about day 10. The effects last for up to 4 months
and can be ‘topped up’ easily when the expression lines
slowly return. Repeated treatments also lead to a longer lasting
effect therefore increasing the duration between treatments.
Do you suffer from Excessive Sweating?
Hyperhidrosis is a condition that affects millions of people around
the world. It can occur anywhere on the body especially:
The product can be used to treat this condition by targeting
sweating at its source. When injected, it enters the specific
glands responsible for excessive sweating and blocks the release
of a chemical that signals the perspiration. The procedure takes
about 10 minutes and its effect can last 7-8 months. The amount
of time the product remains effective may vary so when symptoms
begin to return re-schedule a new appointment. Call The Skin
Institute on (03) 9592 7999 for a free consultation to find out
more about this treatment.
