These changes are compounded by the degradation and loss of collagen, the protein that provides structural support to the skin. As collagen weakens, the skin begins to lose elasticity, resulting in deeper wrinkles, folds, and a noticeable hollowing of the face. While many people see the signs of ageing, such as sagging and wrinkles, they often do not realise that volume loss and skin deterioration are the root causes.
Volume loss affects men and women differently, but it is equally profound. For men, midface volume loss often leads to what is commonly referred to as the "hound dog look," where the cheeks sag, and sagging becomes more prominent. Unlike women, men find it harder to conceal surgical scars due to receding hairlines, making non-surgical options more appealing.
In women, volume loss often occurs higher up in the face, particularly in the temples, eyebrow area, and cheeks, giving a worn, aged look. This volume depletion extends to the lower face and jawline, leading to jowling and further accentuating the ageing process.
At Skin Renewal, we focus on advanced rejuvenation techniques tailored to restore volume and revitalise the face. One such technique is MD Codes, which are highly effective for volume replacement compared to traditional fat transfer methods that involve considerable downtime. Many patients are amazed by the transformative results after volumising their cheeks with dermal fillers. The face regains its youthful fullness and convexity by restoring the "apple" of the cheek, reflecting light for a more radiant appearance. This volume restoration also creates a lifting effect, reducing shadows and smoothing the mid and lower face.
At Skin Renewal, we understand that treating ageing skin requires a comprehensive, 3D approach to achieve lasting results. We focus on replacing lost volume, restoring damaged collagen and elastin, and maintaining skin health through high-quality products and maintenance treatments. This method ensures that your skin remains firm, youthful, and radiant.
Skin Renewal's doctor-led approach to volume loss treatments ensures you receive personalised care. During your initial consultation, one of our experienced doctors will assess your unique concerns and develop a customised treatment plan tailored to your needs. This holistic consultation helps identify volume loss and other ageing factors, ensuring the best results. Our team combines advanced dermal fillers, injectables, and cutting-edge technologies to restore lost volume and improve overall skin health, providing natural, long-lasting results.
Skin Renewal often uses combination treatments to maximise results. We target multiple layers of ageing skin by combining techniques such as dermal fillers, bio-stimulating injectables, and skin-tightening procedures. This multifaceted approach simultaneously addresses volume loss, collagen degradation, and skin laxity, resulting in a comprehensive, rejuvenated appearance.
By addressing both volume loss and skin laxity, Skin Renewal's comprehensive range of treatments provides natural-looking, long-lasting results that restore a youthful, vibrant appearance.
Excellent service, always feel welcomed. The therapists are very professional. Skin Renewal Bedfordview always treats your concerns and they go out of their way to accommodate you. My skin has really improved with the treatments that I have done at the Skin Bedfordview Branch. The doctors are amazing. Friendly, professional, and excellent services provided.
Facials at Skin Renewal have made a big difference to the health and appearance of my skin. In addition to the treatments being very effective, the procedures themselves are relaxing and soothing, and have been carried out with professionalism. I'll definitely be continuoing these treatments!
Esther has very good hands! Too little time though. I was made to feel comfortable at all times and my overall experience was very good. Next time I will have something more specialised. The only comment was that I found the room too warm - especially for menopausal conditions. Will definitily recommend Esther and the clinic.
What an experience. I have been building up for 10 years to have my upper lip seen to. After meeting Dr Zander and the calming effect on me I decided to take the big step. What an awesome person. What an awesome environment from you minute you walk in, to the time you leave. Renewal Institute will be my second home. Above VIP treatment. Thank you
I have been a client at Skin Renewal Constantia for 3 years. I have found their service exceptional and very professional. Treatments are always up to date with current international trends. Both treatments as well as take-home products have made a big difference to my skin.
My therapist talked me through the procedures as I had not had some of them before and she was very knowledgable. She also made the experience comforting and relaxing by giving me a hand massage while I waited for the PDT to finish. She cares about her patients and always asks how my personal life is. She is thorough and brilliant at her job. I highly recommend her.
I've been a client at Skin Renewal for the past 5 years, at the Parkhurst, Morningside and Pineslopes branches. All the staff are professional and friendly, and each visit is consistently amazing. I am particularly happy with Dr Lestonn Lawn, who I've been seeing for lip injectables for just over 2 years now. I love his manner and technique and after every visit, my lips never fail to look amazing (Kylie Jenner for what)! We've done Juvederm as well as Restylane fillers, and both have had fab results, thanks to the precision of Dr Lawn! 6 out of 5 stars from me :)
I was quite anxious about having this procedure done as I have a phobia about needles! But my anxiety was quickly allayed. The doctors who do the threading are extremely professional and competent, and they work under the most hygienic conditions. I felt completely confident that I was receiving the best possible treatment. The only discomfort I felt was a slight sting as the topical anaesthic was applied, which lasted only a few brief moments. The threading itself, to my great surprise and delight, was completely painless! I had quite a number of threads done and noticed some swelling in a few areas immediately after the procedure, but that didn't last long. There was some bruising around my neck, however, I do bruise easily so was not at all concerned about it. It's been three weeks since I had the threading. I could see good results almost immediately afterwards and as each day goes by, the effects become more and more visible. My face has definitely lifted; I look younger and feel rejuvenated. People comment on it. Can't wait to see how much better I will look three months from now! Thanks to Skin Renewal for giving me this fresh new look!
I am almost 65 years old and have a younger looking skin (and much more younger looking wife). I needed to make sure that people do not think that the beautiful woman with me is my daughter and not my wife. I had the opportunity to to have a rejuvenation experience when Skin Renewal launched Silhouette Threads. What a pleasant surprise! No discomfort other than slight tenderness for 2 days after a most pleasant insertion procedure and a fresh youthful face in the mirror every morning when I shaveThe local anesthetic and the gentle care of the Aesthetic doctors made the process very smooth running and highly recommendable. Get rid of the aging evidence in comfort and without pain.
I had 2 Silhouette soft threads inserted on the 10th of March. I must say I was a bit apprehensive, but apart from the local anaesthetic I did not feel much. The lidocaine with adrenaline stung a little bit, but that was it. The procedure of inserting the threads I did not feel at all. When they started applying traction on the threads and moving my skin across it, it felt weird but not painful at all. I had only one small bruise to the right of my mouth corner. I could see immediate results. My jawline was much smoother and even my cheekbones looked more defined. The next day people commented on this. I had some puckering of skin along the path of the threads inserted from my cheekbones, that disappeared within a week. There was tenderness on the boney areas (cheekbones and jaw angle) for a week. It was not painful, only tender when touching it while washing my face. I did feel the need to wash my face carefully for about a week but after that no problem. The insertion and exit points were not that visible and not tender afterwards at all.I would recommend this to anyone that wants to improve their sagging jowls or any other sagging part of their face. It is minimally invasive and basically painless. Knowing that the results will even improve more over the next 8 months while the threads are dissolving, really makes this worthwhile. The results are amazing!
