Hollow Eye Sockets
Tear trough filler
Tear trough filler is a cosmetic procedure that involves injecting dermal fillers into the hollow area under the eyes, known as the tear trough. This treatment is designed to address concerns such as dark circles, hollowness, and under-eye bags, which can contribute to a tired and aged appearance. Here are some of the benefits of tear trough filler:
Improved Under-Eye Appearance
Tear trough fillers can effectively reduce the appearance of dark circles, hollowness, and bags under the eyes. This results in a more refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.
Reduced Shadows
Hollow tear troughs can create shadows that make you look tired and older than you are. By filling in this area, the shadows are diminished, leading to a brighter and more youthful look.
Minimised Wrinkles
Tear trough fillers can also help to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles that may form in the under-eye area due to volume loss and the natural ageing process.
Non-Surgical Solution
Tear trough filler is a non-surgical procedure, meaning it doesn’t involve incisions or extensive downtime. This makes it a popular choice for individuals who want to enhance their under-eye appearance without the risks and recovery associated with surgery.
Quick Procedure
The treatment is relatively quick, often taking less than an hour to complete. This makes it convenient for those with busy schedules.
Immediate Results
While there may be some initial swelling, most people notice visible improvements immediately after the treatment. The full results become more apparent as any swelling subsides.
Long-Lasting Effects
The results of tear trough filler can last for several months to a year or more, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors. This means you can enjoy your improved appearance for a significant amount of time before considering a touch-up.
Customisable Treatment
Tear trough filler treatments can be tailored to your specific needs and desired outcomes. The amount of filler and the injection technique can be adjusted to achieve natural-looking results that enhance your unique facial features.
Boosted Self-Confidence
Addressing under-eye concerns can lead to an increase in self-confidence and an overall improved sense of well-being. When you feel better about your appearance, it can positively impact various aspects of your life.
Minimal Side Effects
While some minor side effects such as swelling, bruising, or redness may occur, they are usually temporary and can be easily managed. Serious complications are rare when the procedure is performed by a qualified medical professional.
Fine lines, wrinkles, expression lines
Anti wrinkle injections
Wrinkle reduction is minimally invasive. It’s a safe, effective treatment for fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. It can also be used on the forehead between the eyes, gummy smile area, lip flip, bunny lines and underarms to reduce sweating. It can slow the formation of new lines by preventing contraction of facial muscles.
Anti-wrinkle injections, often referred to as Botox or botulinum toxin injections, are a popular cosmetic treatment designed to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Here are some benefits of anti-wrinkle injections:
Reduced Wrinkles
The primary purpose of anti-wrinkle injections is to relax the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, such as crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines. This leads to a smoother and more youthful appearance.
Non-Surgical
Anti-wrinkle injections are non-surgical and minimally invasive, meaning they don’t require incisions or extensive downtime. This makes them a convenient option for those who want to enhance their appearance without surgery.
Quick Procedure
The treatment sessions are usually quick, often taking around 15-20 minutes, depending on the areas being treated. This makes it feasible to schedule the procedure during a lunch break or between activities.
Minimal Discomfort
The injections are administered using very fine needles, and most patients report minimal discomfort. Some practitioners might apply a topical numbing cream to enhance comfort during the procedure.
No Downtime
After receiving anti-wrinkle injections, there is typically no downtime required. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately, although some minor redness or swelling at the injection sites is possible.
Gradual and Natural-Looking Results
The effects of anti-wrinkle injections develop gradually over a few days to a week, resulting in natural-looking improvements. This helps to avoid sudden changes in appearance.
Long-Lasting Effects
While the exact duration varies from person to person, the effects of anti-wrinkle injections generally last around 3 to 4 months. Some individuals experience results lasting longer with repeated treatments.
Preventive Benefits
Anti-wrinkle injections can also be used preventively, meaning they can help delay the formation of new wrinkles by limiting repetitive facial movements that cause them in the first place.
Safe and Well-Established
Botulinum toxin injections have been used for cosmetic purposes for many years and have a well-established safety record when administered by qualified medical professionals.
Customisable Treatment
Anti-wrinkle injections can be customised to suit your individual needs and desired outcomes. Your practitioner can adjust the amount of product and injection sites to achieve a personalised and balanced result.
Complementary to Other Treatments
Anti-wrinkle injections can be combined with other cosmetic procedures, such as dermal fillers or skin treatments, to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
Improved Confidence
Many people find that the reduction in wrinkles and smoother skin leads to an increase in self-confidence and a more positive self-image.
Skin texture, loss of radiance
Profhilo, Skin booster

Non surgical rhinoplasty
Non surgical rhinoplasty
Non-surgical rhinoplasty is a medical aesthetic procedure used to alter and shape a person’s nose without a surgery. The procedure fills in depressed areas on the nose, lifting the angle of the tip or smoothing the appearance of bumps on the bridge.
A non-surgical rhinoplasty, often referred to as a liquid rhinoplasty or non-surgical nose job, involves using dermal fillers to reshape and enhance the appearance of the nose without the need for surgery. Here are some benefits of opting for a non-surgical rhinoplasty:
Non-Invasive Approach
Non-surgical rhinoplasty does not involve surgery, incisions, or anesthesia. This eliminates the risks associated with surgical procedures, such as infection, scarring, and anesthesia complications.
Minimal Downtime
After the procedure, you can typically resume your daily activities almost immediately. Some minor swelling or bruising at the injection sites is possible, but it’s usually less severe than post-surgical recovery.
Quick Procedure
The treatment can usually be completed in a short amount of time, often taking less than an hour, depending on the complexity of the changes being made.
Immediate Results
Unlike surgical rhinoplasty, which requires time for swelling to subside before the final results become apparent, the results of a non-surgical rhinoplasty are visible immediately.
Reversible
One of the benefits of using temporary dermal fillers is that the results are reversible. If you’re not satisfied with the outcome, a dissolving enzyme can be injected to break down the filler and restore your original appearance.
Correction of Minor Imperfections
Non-surgical rhinoplasty is particularly effective for addressing minor cosmetic concerns, such as filling in small depressions, smoothing out bumps, or improving symmetry.
Balanced Facial Features
A skilled practitioner can use dermal fillers to create balance and harmony between the nose and other facial features, enhancing your overall appearance.
Avoid Surgery-Related Risks
Surgical rhinoplasty carries inherent risks associated with anesthesia, infection, and complications related to the surgical procedure itself. Non-surgical rhinoplasty avoids these risks.
Reduced Cost
Non-surgical rhinoplasty is generally more cost-effective than surgical rhinoplasty, making it an attractive option for individuals seeking nose enhancement on a budget.
Temporary Results
The effects of dermal fillers used in non-surgical rhinoplasty are temporary. While this might not be considered a benefit for everyone, it can be advantageous if you’re unsure about permanent changes to your appearance.
No Surgical Scarring
Since there are no incisions, non-surgical rhinoplasty does not leave behind any visible scars.
Customizable
Non-surgical rhinoplasty can be tailored to your specific needs and preferences. Your practitioner can work with you to achieve the desired changes while maintaining a natural-looking result.
Sunken skin, Volume loss
Dermal filler
Dermal fillers are a popular cosmetic treatment used to add volume, smoothen lines and wrinkles, and enhance various facial features. They are typically made of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body. Here are some benefits of dermal fillers:
Wrinkle Reduction
Dermal fillers can effectively reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and creases, particularly those caused by volume loss or the natural ageing process.
Volume Restoration
As we age, we tend to lose facial volume, leading to a sunken and sagging appearance. Dermal fillers can restore lost volume, particularly in areas like the cheeks and temples.
Enhanced Facial Contours
Fillers can be strategically injected to contour and shape specific areas of the face, such as the jawline, chin, and cheekbones, enhancing your natural features.
Lip Augmentation
Dermal fillers can be used to add volume and definition to the lips, creating a plumper and more youthful appearance.
Non-Surgical
Dermal filler treatments are non-surgical and minimally invasive, which means they don’t require incisions, general anaesthetic, or extensive downtime.
Quick Procedure
Most dermal filler sessions can be completed in a short amount of time, often in under an hour, depending on the areas being treated.
Immediate Results
The effects of dermal fillers are usually visible immediately after the treatment. However, minor swelling or redness might be present initially.
Long-Lasting Effects
While the duration varies depending on factors such as the type of filler used and individual metabolism, the results of dermal fillers can last several months to over a year.
Gradual Fading
As dermal filler effects gradually fade, the transition is typically subtle, avoiding sudden changes in appearance.
Customisable Treatment
Dermal filler treatments can be tailored to your specific needs and preferences. Your practitioner can adjust the amount of filler and injection sites to achieve the desired outcome.
Boosted Self-Confidence
Many individuals experience an increase in self-confidence and self-esteem after undergoing dermal filler treatments due to the enhanced appearance.
Little to No Downtime
While some mild swelling, bruising, or redness might occur, most people can resume their daily activities shortly after the procedure.
Safe and Reversible
Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers are considered safe and have a low risk of allergic reactions. Plus, if you’re not satisfied with the results, the effects of hyaluronic acid fillers can be partially or fully reversed using an enzyme called hyaluronidase.
Natural-Looking Results
When performed by a skilled practitioner, dermal fillers can create subtle and natural-looking results that enhance your appearance without looking overdone.
All treatments are assessed on your individual needs. We will discuss your goals, and develop a treatment plan that aligns with your expectations and desired outcomes.
Low energy, brittle nails, poor sleep
Common Signs and Symptoms of Vitamin B12 Deficiency:
Fatigue and Weakness
Feeling unusually tired and weak, even after getting adequate rest, could be a sign of B12 deficiency.
Anaemia
A type of anaemia called megaloblastic anaemia, characterised by larger-than-normal red blood cells, can occur due to B12 deficiency. This can lead to symptoms like pale skin, shortness of breath, and dizziness.
Neurological Symptoms
B12 deficiency can affect the nervous system, leading to symptoms such as tingling or numbness in the hands and feet, difficulty walking, balance problems, and memory issues.
Mood Disturbances
Some individuals with B12 deficiency experience mood changes, including irritability, depression, and anxiety.
Cognitive Issues
B12 deficiency might result in cognitive problems, including difficulty concentrating, poor memory, and confusion.
Paleness or Jaundice
If B12 deficiency leads to anemia, it might result in paleness of the skin or even a yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice).
Tongue and Mouth Changes
Some people with B12 deficiency might have a swollen, red, or sore tongue. Mouth ulcers or a burning sensation in the mouth can also occur.
Vision Changes
B12 deficiency could lead to vision changes, including blurriness or sensitivity to light.
Risk Factors for Vitamin B12 Deficiency
Dietary Restrictions
Vegetarians and vegans are at a higher risk of B12 deficiency, as this vitamin is mainly found in animal-derived foods.
Age
As you get older, your body’s ability to absorb B12 from food decreases, increasing the risk of deficiency, especially in individuals over 50.
Gastrointestinal Disorders
Conditions that affect the stomach or small intestine, such as celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, or pernicious anemia, can interfere with B12 absorption.
Medications
Certain medications, such as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and metformin (used for diabetes), can affect B12 absorption.
Weight Loss Surgery
Individuals who have undergone weight loss surgery, especially procedures that involve the removal of parts of the stomach or intestine, are at an increased risk of B12 deficiency.
Chronic Alcohol Consumption
Heavy alcohol consumption can impair B12 absorption.
Autoimmune Conditions
Some autoimmune disorders can affect the body’s ability to absorb B12.
Vitamin B12 plays a crucial role in various bodily functions. Here are some key benefits of vitamin B12:
Energy Production
Vitamin B12 is essential for the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It helps convert food into energy, making it important for maintaining overall vitality and reducing feelings of fatigue.
Nervous System Health
Vitamin B12 is critical for the maintenance of the nervous system. It supports the production of myelin, a protective coating around nerve fibres that ensures proper nerve signal transmission.
Brain Function and Mood
Adequate levels of vitamin B12 are associated with cognitive health and a healthy mood. Deficiencies in B12 have been linked to mood disturbances and cognitive decline, though more research is needed to understand the exact mechanisms.
Red Blood Cell Formation
Vitamin B12 is necessary for the production of healthy red blood cells. It helps in the maturation of red blood cells in the bone marrow and assists in preventing a type of anaemia called megaloblastic anaemia.
DNA Synthesis
Vitamin B12 plays a role in DNA synthesis and cell division. This is crucial for maintaining healthy cell growth and replication.
Heart Health
Some studies suggest that adequate B12 levels may help reduce the risk of heart disease. B12 helps lower homocysteine levels, an amino acid associated with heart disease when elevated.
Bone Health
Vitamin B12, in combination with other B vitamins like folate and B6, contributes to bone health by regulating levels of homocysteine, which, when elevated, can negatively impact bone health.
Supports Digestion
Vitamin B12 aids in the production of stomach acid and supports digestive processes. It also helps prevent a type of anemia that can occur when the stomach lining is compromised.
Skin and Hair Health
Adequate B12 levels contribute to healthy skin, hair, and nails. B12 plays a role in the renewal of skin cells and helps prevent conditions like hyperpigmentation and hair loss.
Eye Health
Vitamin B12 has been associated with eye health, specifically reducing the risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). However, more research is needed to establish a clear link.
Immune System Support
Some studies suggest that vitamin B12 might play a role in supporting the immune system by aiding the production of white blood cells, which are crucial for immune defence.
Neurological Protection
Adequate B12 levels are linked to reduced risk of neurological disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease and peripheral neuropathy. However, more research is needed to fully understand these relationships.
Stubborn Fat
Fat dissolving injections
Aqualyx is a brand name for a non-surgical cosmetic treatment known as a fat dissolver. It involves injecting a solution directly into localised fat deposits to help break down and eliminate fat cells from the body. Here are some potential benefits of Aqualyx fat dissolver:
Non-Surgical Approach
Aqualyx provides an alternative to surgical fat reduction procedures like liposuction. It’s a minimally invasive option for individuals looking to reduce stubborn pockets of fat without undergoing surgery.
Localised Fat Reduction
Aqualyx is particularly effective for targeting small areas of localised fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. Common treatment areas include the cheeks, chin, jowls, thighs, abdomen, love handles, and knees.
Precise Sculpting
Aqualyx allows for precise sculpting and contouring of the treated areas. This makes it suitable for refining specific parts of the body to achieve a more proportionate appearance.
Minimal Downtime
Since Aqualyx is a non-surgical procedure, it typically involves minimal downtime. Patients can often return to their daily activities shortly after the treatment.
No General Anaesthesia
Unlike surgical procedures, Aqualyx treatments are performed using local anaesthesia, reducing the risks associated with general anaesthesia.
Quick Procedure
Aqualyx treatments are relatively quick, with each session taking around 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Gradual and Natural-Looking Results
The process of fat breakdown and elimination takes time, resulting in gradual and natural-looking results. This can help avoid sudden changes in appearance.
Long-Lasting Effects
The fat cells that are broken down and eliminated by Aqualyx are typically permanently removed from the body. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is important to prevent the growth of new fat cells in the treated area.
Customisable Treatment
Aqualyx treatments can be tailored to address your specific concerns and desired outcomes. Your practitioner can adjust the injection sites and amount of solution based on your individual needs.
Suitable for Various Body Types
Aqualyx can be effective for a wide range of body types and skin tones.
