The ageing process can cause a loss of volume and sagging of skin in the key areas of the mid and lower face, causing the skin to droop and giving you a tired look. The 8 point facelift uses dermal filler made of hyaluronic acid (HA). It is the latest non-surgical approach for facial rejuvenation and lifting, leaving patients with natural results without having to go under the knife. The 8 point facelift gives you a more youthful and fresher look that will take years off the clock
What Is Involved in an 8 Point Facelift?
The 8 point facelift procedure was created by Brazilian plastic surgeon Mauricio de Mai to target the eight areas of the face that are most likely to lose volume and begin to sag as we age. This treatment ensures that the dermal filler is directed precisely where needed the most. By restoring the volume in these specific eight anchor points simultaneously, your face will get a balanced lift. The outcome of this procedure is very natural and results can be seen immediately.
The 8 Point Facelift Targets These Key Areas:
Areas 1, 2 and 8 define the cheekbones
Area 3 fills hollow tear troughs or under the eyes
Area 4 reduces and fills nasolabial folds
Area 5 lifts the corners of the mouth to improve marionette lines
Area 6 reduces jowls.
Area 7 defines the jawline.
If you’ve been thinking of getting facial fillers in several areas of your face, this treatment considers the entire face to give you the overall youthful look you desire. Instead of doing each section one by one, you can take care of them all with the 8-point facelift. The procedure takes up to an hour (we apply numbing cream and wait until it takes effect), but we’ll make you feel as comfortable as possible during your appointment. You may experience some slight swelling or bruising at the injection points, but it should go away in a few days.
What Are the Benefits of an 8 Point Facelift?
The 8 point facelift can help you achieve a natural, more youthful appearance, without any of the risks or downtime associated with a conventional, surgical facelift. With a non-surgical facelift using dermal fillers, there is no need to undergo general anaesthetic , and you won’t be left with scarring, bleeding, sutures or other associated surgery risks.
Besides softening your facial lines, dermal filler stimulates your natural hyaluronic acid production, which acts as an internal moisturiser to hydrate your skin. The effects of HA-based fillers are reversible through being dissolved by Hyaluronidase if necessary, providing you with a safety net and that extra peace of mind.
How Long until I See Results?
You should see some effects of the treatment immediately, but the final result may take up to a month. We book a follow up appointment two weeks after your treatment to review how it’s going. Every person will have different results, but the dermal fillers used can have a long-lasting effect up to 18 months.
