Common Questions: Product- the product is a hyaluronic acid gel that is injected into the skin. It adds contours, creates volume, fills lines ane hydrates the skin. The results are immediate. Fillers last from 9 – 12 months depending on the area treated, the depth of the lines, the condition of the skin and lifestyle factors. The treatment takes approximately 30 minutes. Side effects of treatment may include swelling, redness and occasional bruising. Swellling is the most likely side effect because the product attracts water and hydrates the area which has been treated. Tenderness and swelling normally last around 2-3 days. It is best to have treatment 2 weeks prior to a significant event so as all swelling and bruising will have gone. If you don’t have further treatment, the skin will return to its pre-treatment condition. It has however, been proven to stimulate new collagen growth and may aid in improving the quality and texture of the skin.

While sweating is the body’s way of regulating its temperature, some people may sweat four or five times more than is considered normal. If you are one of them, know that you are not alone and the condition is treatable. 

Excessive sweating affects around 3% of the population.

There are two types of hyperhidrosis. The more common type, primary hyperhidrosis, often begins in childhood, whereas secondary hyperhidrosis is caused by a medical condition or a side effect of a medication. Another key difference is that unlike people with primary hyperhidrosis, people with secondary hyperhidrosis usually experience excessive sweating while sleeping.

The most common areas of excessive sweating are the underarms, hands and feet.  It can be very embarrassing, and often a constant cause of concern for the sufferers.

Treatments for excessive underarm sweating

This condition can be treated 2 ways – by using injections or by surgical intervention. At Renaissance Skin Care we offer both.  You can have the injections with Kas, or you can have the surgery with Plastic Surgeon, Mr Tim Brown.

What injection treatment involves

The area under the arm needs to be treated in order to determine which part of the axilla they are sweating from the most. – By means of using an ointment.  Then the area can be injected.  It takes very little time – around 30 minutes.  Patients can return to work/normal activities immediately.

Patients can expect results in 7-10 days (it can take up to 14 days in total).  The treatment usually lasts from 8 – 12 months.  Patients normally return annually for re-injection.

As the name suggests, dermal fillers are injected into the skin to ‘fill out’ lines and creases. Dermal fillers are a non-surgical treatment that rejuvenate the skin; giving almost immediately visible results without the risky side effects and long recovery times of surgery.

Dermal fillers stimulate the natural skin collagen by replacing the body’s store of hyaluronic acid, which depletes as we age. The filler is injected directly into the target area of the face. By using a substance that naturally occurs within the body, adverse reactions are negligible and no prior allergy tests are required.

As with any cosmetic treatment it is important to get expert advice on your options. There are a variety of choices available in fillers. The right clinician will be able to advise you on the best treatment to achieve your desired results. It is a legal requirement that a consultation occurs prior to the use of any injectable s and a prescription must come from a medical doctor.

Wrinkle erasers remove unwanted wrinkles and skin creases with the use of tiny muscle-relaxing injections

Wrinkles are folds in our skin caused by the underlying muscles contracting. Wrinkles can occur as the result of squinting our eyes, eyebrow and forehead muscles, sunbathing, or looking into bright light and when anxious, worried or stressed.

Wrinkles can make you look older, or tired or angry. The injections prevent selected muscles from repeatedly contracting, thereby creating wrinkles.

Maintenance is the key and will prevent future wrinkles and prevent the look of aging. Injectable wrinkle erasers are a popular non-surgical injection that temporarily reduces or eliminates frown lines, forehead creases, crows feet near the eyes and thick bands in the neck. The product blocks the nerve impulses, temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause wrinkles while giving the skin a smoother, more refreshed appearance.

Studies have also suggested that injectable wrinkle erasers are effective in relieving migraine headaches, excessive sweating and muscle spasms in the neck and eyes. These products can also be used to re-shape the brow and position of the eyebrows.
