Derma Fillers
They are soft injectable gels used for facial aesthetic treatments. It is injected into the skin to create a softer natural look. They are designed to effectively reduce the appearance of unwanted creases, contour and create volume, create fuller lips (lip augmentation) and to the skin. Dermal fillers are based on hyaluronic acid which is a substance that naturally exists in your body. It is a long lasting but not permanent treatment. Popular areas for treatment include frown, marionette (mouth to chin) or nasolabial (nose to mouth) folds, Lips, Cheeks, Tear Through and Jaw line.
When used combined with botulinum toxin, an impressive change in many of these characteristics brought on by aging can often be made with very little invested time, risk and recovery.
Most of the more commonly known ‘Injectable’ fillers fall into the temporary to semi-permanent categories. Materials such as human fat, collagen, calcium hydroxylapatite, hyaluronic acid and polylactic acid all have a role in the temporary filler category. However, among them the hyaluronic acid fillers are the most popular. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance in your body and actually is found in nearly every living thing. For that reason it is often a good choice for those searching for a treatment of this kind. It has a very low incidence of reactivity and is extremely well tolerated by most patients. The material presents itself and is delivered to the desired area in the form of a gel by injection. When injected properly within the dermis, it acts as a physical cushion to support the overlying tissues which have lost volume and elasticity due to the aging process. By the nature of its organic chemical structure it will not only add support to the tissues but is thought to promote collagen formation as well as bring moisture to the surface of the skin. Depending on the product and the area being treated, hyaluronic acid based fillers can provide a lasting effect often for up to 12 months.

PDO Threads Treatment
PDO Threads are essentially the cosmetic version of the reabsorbable sutures used regularly in heart surgery. With an excellent safety profile and virtually non-allergenic, PDO is manufactured through the polymerization of p-dioxanone to create a reabsorbable sterile filament which produces fibrosis in the surrounding tissue giving rise to the creation of type I and II collagen.
The threads are placed in or just under the skin to stimulate the production of your own collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. They also stimulate the development of new blood vessels and improve lymphatic drainage, giving way to better skin quality with a smoother, brighter, appearance. The results start immediately and will continue to improve for 6-8 months, fully reabsorbable through enzymatic hydrolysis the threads are broken down within six months to a year leaving behind visibly healthier skin lasting up to 18 months.
The two main treatment types are skin rejuvenation which relies on collagen production to increase skin health and elasticity for a tighter tone, and lifting treatments which use barbed threads to physically lift/tighten the skin immediately while the long term benefits take time to kick in.
Rejuvenation Threads
Rejuvenation PDO Threads include Monos, Doubles, Triples, Spirals and Double Spirals. They are made using one or two smooth polydioxanone threads that are placed in or just under the skin to stimulate the production of your own collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid.
Lifting Threads
PDO Thread lifting is a general term which applies to the use of polydioxanone sutures to effect an aesthetic benefit that lifts and tightens sagging skin tissues through mechanical lifting and by inducing collagen production. Lifting threads have barbs, also known as Cogs, along the length of the thread with the aim of affixing the skin in a position to give the appearance of a minor face lift.
Teeth Whitening
Whitening is a process where the tooth become "visible whiter" to a lighter shade.. This is done by using a bleach such as a carbamide peroxide or/and hydrogen peroxide either at home in special mouth guards or in the dental chair at the surgery. The active ingredient passes through the dental enamel, breaking down stains by chemical oxidation. The process can take some time so it is important to finish the treatment as directed.
Usually the process involves to wear the whitening trays overnight for two weeks and then a final 40 minute treatment at the surgery. It is a safe procedure when carried out under professional supervision. Treatment results usually depend on the severity of the discolouration. It is not effective on dental restorations such as amalgam fillings, metal or porcelain crowns, etc.
