Anti-Ageing Treatments
There are a wide range of anti-ageing treatments on the market. These include anti-wrinkle treatments such as Botox which relaxes the muscles and restricts muscular movement and wrinkles.
Dermal fillers are also very popular and vary from Collagen which is based on animal protein (brand names include Evolence and Zyderm), to polylactic acid compounds such as Sculptra to the most recent developments which are based on hylauronic acid. These are fast growing in popularity and include Hylaform, Juvéderm, Restylane and Teosyal. These treatments can all combat the signs of ageing, giving fullness to lips, sculpting the cheeks, volumising deep folds and wrinkles and removing frown lines.
