Volume Enhancement Treatment Treatments Canberra

As we age, our skin loses natural fat pads, collagen, and bone tissue. This contributes to volume loss in the face and a sunken appearance associated with the aging process. Volume Enhancement Treatments are one option for those seeking to address lost volume in the face, potentially contributing to a more refreshed appearance. Today's high-tech fillers have a smooth texture, giving the injector greater control and the ability to create natural-looking results. Our advanced Volume Enhancement Treatments come in five different levels of molecular weight and density. This allows for a highly customised approach to facial contouring.

What are Volume Enhancement Treatments

Particularly in recent years, Volume Enhancement Treatments have become a highly popular treatment, probably because they produce noticeable aesthetic improvements that once could only be accomplished with surgery. This cosmetic injectable treatment works by imitating a sugar molecule that occurs naturally within the body. The role of this gel-like substance is to bind water, transport nutrients and regulate the skin’s water balance. When strategically injected under the skin, this molecule instantly restores facial volume, softens wrinkles, and enhances facial contours.

Why choose Volume Enhancement Treatments at Cosmos Aesthetics Canberra

Volume Enhancement Treatments have evolved considerably over the last decade. Modern Volume Enhancement Treatment injections offer a range of options for facial contouring, aligning with advancements in cosmetic treatment techniques. Some are softer in texture and suitable for restoring volume under the eyes. Others are much denser and can lift the cheeks or give the chin and jawline structure and definition.

The biggest advantage of Volume Enhancement Treatments is their ability to rejuvenate the skin without surgery or downtime. Some patients may observe changes in facial contouring and lifting after one visit, but individual results can vary.

Considering that there are so many cosmetic clinics offering Volume Enhancement Treatment treatments, it can be hard to determine who to go to. At Cosmos Aesthetics Canberra, all of our cosmetic injectors are experienced medical professionals with specific training in performing Volume Enhancement Treatment treatments. In fact, one of our injectors has been appointed as an Allergan National Trainer (a prestigious title held by less than 20 doctors nationwide)! We are a reputable clinic with years of experience and a good track record of results.

What to expect during a Volume Enhancement Treatment treatment

Remember that Volume Enhancement Treatment is a prescribed medication, which means that only a qualified medical practitioner can administer your injections. As such, all patients must visit us for a consultation at Cosmos Aesthetics Canberra before any cosmetic injectable treatment to ensure that you are a suitable candidate.

Before injecting your Volume Enhancement Treatments, your cosmetic injector will thoroughly cleanse your face before applying ice to numb the treatment area. Volume Enhancement Treatments can be injected with either a needle or cannula, depending on the treatment area. At Cosmos Aesthetics, we use Volume Enhancement Treatments that contain a local anaesthetic, which should minimise discomfort during the procedure. While you may feel a slight pinch as the product is injected, the procedure is relatively painless. Immediately following your injections, your cosmetic injector will apply pressure to the treatment area with gauze. Overall, Volume Enhancement Treatments are a quick outpatient procedure that can be performed in less than an hour.

What to expect after a Volume Enhancement Treatment treatment

One great benefit of Volume Enhancement Treatments is that the treatment is relatively simple and can be performed during your lunch break, after work or at the start of your weekend. As a walk-in, walk-out procedure, patients are free to resume their daily activities immediately after treatment. Although you may experience some slight swelling, bruising and tenderness in the treated areas, these side effects are usually mild and should resolve within a few days.

If swelling or tenderness is causing discomfort, we recommend applying a cool compress for ten minutes every hour. However, try to avoid applying the ice or cool compress directly onto the skin and wrap it in a small towel instead. We also suggest avoiding any strenuous exercise or excessive heat for at least 24 hours, which can also help keep tenderness and swelling under control.

It is also important to stay hydrated after a Volume Enhancement Treatment treatment and avoid alcohol or smoking for a minimum of 24 hours. If, for whatever reason, you require pain relief after a Volume Enhancement Treatment treatment, we suggest using paracetamol instead of aspirin or ibuprofen. However, your cosmetic injector will provide you with more thorough aftercare instructions during your treatment.

How much do Volume Enhancement Treatments cost in Canberra

How much your Volume Enhancement Treatment treatment will cost is dependent on numerous factors, such as the specific treatment area, the amount of filler required, and the type of filler uses. At Cosmos Aesthetics, we understand that every patient is different and requires a customised treatment plan to address their cosmetic concerns and goals. Ultimately, the best way to determine the cost of your Volume Enhancement Treatment treatment is to book a consultation with one of our experienced cosmetic injectors.

Am I a candidate for Volume Enhancement Treatments?

If you’re starting to notice mild to moderate volume loss and skin sagging, you may be a good candidate for Volume Enhancement Treatments. Also, if you’d like to improve the shape of your nose or achieve a more chiselled jawline, fillers can be a great non-surgical option. Women and men alike can benefit from Volume Enhancement Treatments. However, keep in mind that patients with considerable skin sagging and aging may require surgery to produce more dramatic and satisfactory results.

How do I prepare for Volume Enhancement Treatments?

Before a Volume Enhancement Treatment treatment, there are a number of things that you should do to prepare. The most important thing is to avoid any potential blood thinners for around a week before treatment. This includes alcohol, aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, omega-3 supplements and vitamin E. If you are prone to cold sores, you may need to speak to your doctor about taking prophylactic medication prior to treatment. Additionally, if you have had a recent COVID-19 vaccination, you should wait at least two weeks before scheduling a Volume Enhancement Treatment treatment.

What brands of Volume Enhancement Treatment do you use?

Here in Australia, we are legally unable to state which Volume Enhancement Treatment brands we use. As Volume Enhancement Treatments are classified as prescription medicine, only doctors can prescribe Volume Enhancement Treatments. Given this, you must have a consultation with us prior to treatment to ensure that Volume Enhancement Treatments are an appropriate treatment for you.

At Cosmos Aesthetics Canberra, we use high-quality Volume Enhancement Treatments from a range of well-trusted brands. If you’d like to learn more, our cosmetic injectors can talk freely about your options during a consultation.

Can Volume Enhancement Treatments replace surgical procedures?

As Volume Enhancement Treatment techniques are increasingly becoming more sophisticated, patients now have access to highly effective non-surgical facial rejuvenation options. However, cosmetic injectables are not a suitable option for everyone. Patients with excess skin or severe sun damage may require alternative options, such as surgery or laser resurfacing, to achieve their desired results.

Can Volume Enhancement Treatments slow down the ageing process?

While Volume Enhancement Treatments cannot stop the ageing process, they may help manage the appearance of lines and volume loss. In fact, Volume Enhancement Treatments can stimulate the production of collagen, which keeps our skin looking fresh, plump, and youthful.

At Cosmos Aesthetics, we are seeing an increasing number of patients opt for Volume Enhancement Treatments as a preventative anti-ageing treatment. Although anyone over 18 years old can undergo a Volume Enhancement Treatment treatment, the best time to begin treatment will differ for everyone. Ultimately, Volume Enhancement Treatments are an effective way to reduce the visible signs of ageing without the need for surgery.

Are there any side effects related to Volume Enhancement Treatments?

Most patients tolerate Volume Enhancement Treatment injections exceptionally well, even following many years of use. However, as with any other medical procedure, you can expect some temporary side effects, such as swelling, redness and bruising. These normally resolve after several hours or within a few days.

It is possible to experience some rarer complications, such as infection or lumps (also known as granulomas). The good news is Volume Enhancement Treatment can be instantly dissolved with a special enzyme in the event that the filler needs to be reversed.

In some extremely rare cases, Volume Enhancement Treatment can be accidentally injected into the blood vessels rather than beneath the skin. This can block blood supply and lead to skin death and, in severe cases, blindness. This is why we always stress seeing a highly experienced cosmetic injector who has the training to avoid these complications.

Can I have other treatments with Volume Enhancement Treatments?

Many patients opt to combine their Volume Enhancement Treatments with additional non-surgical facial treatments, in particular Wrinkle Reduction Treatments. As an anti-ageing strategy, Volume Enhancement Treatments can restore volume and shape to the face, while Wrinkle Reduction Treatments minimise the appearance of fine lines and deep wrinkles. You can learn more about whether this option is suitable for you during your consultation.

How long do Volume Enhancement Treatments last?

Please note that Volume Enhancement Treatments are not permanent and will eventually be absorbed by the body. The rate at which this happens will depend on factors such as the treatment area, the type of filler used and your skin type, age, and lifestyle.

Typically, you can expect Volume Enhancement Treatments to last between nine months and two years; however, dermal lip fillers may only last for around six months. If you have never had Volume Enhancement Treatments before, keep in mind that you may require regular treatments every few months before you reach your cosmetic goals. After this, we suggest scheduling top-up treatments every six to 12 months.

Do Volume Enhancement Treatments hurt?

During a Volume Enhancement Treatment treatment at Cosmos Aesthetics, we will always begin by numbing the treatment area, which minimises the amount of pain felt during the procedure. While you may feel some slight pressure or a stinging sensation as the product is injected, whether or not you find the process painful will depend on the area treated and your individual pain tolerance.

What if I don't like my results?

There are a few options available to patients who are unhappy with their Volume Enhancement Treatment results. If you need to balance asymmetrical results or simply wish for a more enhanced look, your cosmetic injector can administer additional Volume Enhancement Treatment. Alternatively, if you are completely unhappy with how your filler looks, we can inject an enzyme into the treatment area that dissolves the Volume Enhancement Treatment completely.

How much Volume Enhancement Treatment will I need?

Every patient desires a different cosmetic outcome, which means that every patient will require a different amount of Volume Enhancement Treatment. If you are looking for a natural enhancement or are new to Volume Enhancement Treatment, we usually suggest beginning with a single syringe in the lips or in each cheek. However, if you feel that this is not enough once the swelling has subsided, you are welcome to return to Cosmos Aesthetics Canberra to determine whether an extra ml of filler can help you achieve your desired results. Your cosmetic injector will discuss how much Volume Enhancement Treatment will best help you reach your aesthetic goals during your consultation.
