Volume RestorationWhat is Volume Restoration?
As we age, the face gradually loses volume. This happens as subcutaneous fat reduces and bone density and muscle mass change over time, which can lead to hollowing and sagging in areas such as the cheeks, jawline and under the eyes. The result is a face that can look older or more tired than a person feels.
Volume restoration describes the range of treatments used to address this loss and support the structure of the face.
A full-service dermatology approach
As a dermatology clinic, we have access to a broad range of treatments and technologies relevant to facial volume and skin quality, including laser and energy-based devices, collagen-stimulating treatments, skin needling and other cosmetic treatment options for suitable patients.
Because there are many possible approaches, the right one depends entirely on your individual assessment. Some patients benefit from treatments that stimulate the skin’s own collagen. Others are better suited to different options. In many cases a combination, delivered over time, may be more appropriate than any single treatment.
Every plan starts with a consultation
The purpose of your consultation is to assess your skin and facial structure and to talk through which of our treatments, if any, are appropriate for you. Not every consultation results in treatment, and not every patient is suited to every option. Your clinician will explain what each approach involves, what to expect, and any risks, so you can make an informed decision.
All cosmetic treatments carry risks and may not be suitable for everyone. Suitability, risks and expected outcomes are discussed during your consultation, and individual results vary.
Our approach
We favour a considered, conservative approach that works with the natural structure of the face rather than against it. Each plan is developed following an individual assessment, and our cosmetic team works under the oversight of the specialist Dermatologists who consult at The Skin Centre.
