Volumising Treatment FAQ

About Volumising Treatments

  1. What are volumising treatments?
    • Volumising treatments involve the use of a gel substance to restore or enhance volume in areas of the face or body where volume has diminished. These treatments aim to improve the appearance of volume loss and enhance overall contours.
  2. How do volumising treatments work?
    • Volumising treatments work by injecting a substance that provides immediate volume and structure to targeted areas. This can help to reduce the appearance of hollows, lines, and sagging by filling in areas where volume has been lost.
  3. What areas can volumising treatments address?
    • Volumising treatments can be used to address areas such as the cheeks, under the eyes, the jawline, and the lips. They can help restore youthful contours and improve the overall appearance of the face.

Treatment Details

  1. How long does a volumising treatment session take?
    • A typical volumising treatment session usually takes between 30-45 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated and the specific needs of the patient.
  2. Is the treatment painful?
    • Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. A fine needle or cannula is used for injection, and topical numbing agents are often applied to reduce any sensation.
  3. How many sessions are needed for optimal results?
    • Often, a single session is sufficient to achieve noticeable results. However, the number of sessions needed can vary based on individual goals and the specific treatment areas.

Preparation and Aftercare

  1. How should I prepare for a volumising treatment?
    • It is advisable to avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements, if medically fit to, for a few days before the treatment to reduce the risk of bruising. Arrive with a clean face and avoid wearing heavy makeup.
  2. What should I expect after the treatment?
    • After the treatment, you may experience minor redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites. These effects are generally temporary and resolve within a few days.

    • Avoid strenuous activities, excessive heat, and alcohol for 24-48 hours after the treatment. Follow any additional aftercare advice provided by your practitioner to ensure optimal results.

Results and Expectations
