Dynamic to Static: Understanding Wrinkles

Our skin flourishes with collagen in our youthful years, keeping dynamic wrinkles at bay. However, as time passes, collagen dwindles, and those dynamic wrinkles transition into static wrinkles. These static lines are etched into the skin by constant facial motion and expression. Every smile and every frown leaves its mark, gradually forming those telltale signs of ageing.

frequently asked
questions

Are Dermal Fillers available at all Skin Renewal clinics?
When should one start using dermal fillers?

Early intervention is key in wrinkle treatment, starting when wrinkles are still soft to prevent them from becoming ingrained and scar-like.

Using dermal fillers to fill wrinkles prevents skin breaks and stimulates collagen production, leading to long-lasting wrinkle improvement. Regular filler injections every 6 to 12 months maintain superior results by continuously stimulating collagen.

In addition to treating wrinkles, ageing faces often lose volume in areas like the temples, eyebrows, and cheeks. Replacing lost volume with dermal fillers can defy gravity, rejuvenating the face with minimal downtime.

How does dermal fillers work?

Hyaluronic acid is abundant in human tissue, particularly in the skin, eyeballs, and cartilage. It acts as a natural shock absorber and hydrator. However, as we age, our bodies produce less of it, leading to issues like osteoarthritis and skin dehydration.

By replenishing hyaluronic acid in the skin and lips, we can improve hydration and skin thickness. Moreover, hyaluronic acid injections stimulate the body's natural collagen production, which fills wrinkles and enhances skin texture. As the filler breaks down, it prompts collagen stimulation, extending the benefits of the treatment. It's a win-win situation for skin rejuvenation.

What to expect after a dermal filler treatment

After a filler treatment, minimal swelling or bruising allows you to resume normal activities immediately. At Skin Renewal, we offer a complimentary PDT/LED session post-procedure, a healing light therapy that reduces bruising and swelling, extending the filler's effects.

You can apply makeup immediately and continue with your usual activities, though expect some redness and swelling for a few hours to a few days.

At Skin Renewal, we schedule a follow-up consultation two weeks later to ensure your satisfaction and address any concerns. To minimise bruising, avoid aspirin, myprodol, omega-3, or high-dose vitamin E supplements 10 days before the procedure (unless medically necessary).

For two weeks post-procedure, it's also advised to refrain from saunas and steam baths.

Are dermal fillers safe?

Dermal fillers, derived from hyaluronic acid, are created using human genes within bacteria. This protein is highly consistent across species, reducing the risk of allergic reactions and eliminating the need for pre-treatment skin tests.

These fillers have a proven safety record. They have been used in millions of patients over 12 years with minimal side effects.

Can all skin types be safely treated with dermal fillers?

Yes, all skin types can be safely treated with dermal fillers.

Dr Darienne at Skin Renewal Fourways has been absolutely wonderful. Every treatment I've had has been handled with the utmost care and my results have been nothing short of amazing. Dr Darienne is a lovely person and takes the time to get to know her patients which adds a personal touch to each appointment. She gives careful consideration to each treatment and won't just inject for the sake of it. I highly recommend Dr Darienne!

All I can say is that I wish I had discovered Skin Renewal sooner !This place is truly amazing and the staff are all so friendly, kind and helpful. I was so nervous to have any procedure done but Kayleigh was so calming, friendly and reassuring. She also answered all my questions and helped address any concerns I may have had. I felt completely at ease and so comfortable in her capable hands. Dr Merle was so helpful, knowledgeable and kind and gave me a treatment plan that is definitely working. My skin looks amazing and I always look forward to my sessions. Thank you so much Skin Renewal.

Dr Ross Connor is the absolute best - I can't recommend him and the team at Skin Renewal enough. The entire experience from the moment you step into the studio, to consultation, treatment and exit is a joy. Dr Connor listens and executes what is discussed with kindness, patience and best of all with a smile. He is smart, composed, careful + considerate. Nothing bad to say. If you're looking for someone - stop now - you've found him!

I would like to let you know how happy I am with your branch in Constantia. The team is amazing. Starting with the new receptionists: Stephanie is very professional, helpful and very welcoming, friendly every time someone enters or has a request. I always get an immediate answer to my emails and they try to help me out with my appointments (I had quite a few...) to the fullest. Dr. Fred is great doctor, very much aware of health and body problems and the way of treating them. I really enjoyed my IV treatments with him. I am the patient of Dr. Graham for a few years now and I do not want to go to any doctor anymore for my fillers, botox or threads. I visited before the best doctors in Milan and Zürich so have some experience. He is a fantastic person, outstanding doctor who listens to you and does according to your needs, preferences. Some of my international friends feel the same way about him. Last, but not least I have to mention my therapist. She is a lovely girl and an amazing therapist. She really loves her job and cares for her clients. She is very understanding and knows well how to treat different skin problems. She is not pushy and listens to the needs of her clients. A big thank you for all of you guys, you work really hard and do a great job. Thank you for your kindness and professionalism.

I recently consulted with a Skin Renewal doctor regarding my ageing skin. After examining me and analyzing my requirements, she explained her recommendations in layman terms, with sensitivity to any concerns I had. The treatment itself was a breeze. She inspires confidence, creating a relaxed environment, which makes the experience enjoyable. The doc is a very special doctor and I am delighted with the results and my treatment.
