ANTI- WRINKLE INJECTIONS and DERMAL FILLERS
Advanced Wrinkle Reduction & Prevention
When the skin on our face is moving, the lines that form as a result of daily facial expressions become deeper over time and fold to become wrinkles. As we get older, the daily muscle contractions and movements on our skin leaves more of a mark than before. This is due to a gradual reduction in the ability of our skin to naturally protect and repair itself as we age.
Anti-wrinkle injections work to stop the formation of static wrinkles by temporarily preventing muscle movement. This decreased movement in the muscle causes less stress on the skin, giving you a fresher and more youthful appearance. It gives your collagen time to repair and improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
*Anti-wrinkle injections and dermal filler treatments are a quick, affordable and effective way to help prevent the formation of wrinkles. Our Treatments are the perfect solution for smoothing lines and Wrinkles around the eyes, frown and forehead. Dermal Fillers are perfect for plumping lips, filling deep smile lines and replacing lost cheek volume. Our Anti-Wrinkle Treatments are suitable for anyone who would like to reduce their lines, enhance their lips or increase volume in their cheeks, chin or lines around the face. And the treatment is effective either immediately or within days and can months to years.
Anti-wrinkle treatment is a cosmetic out-patient procedure that takes under half an hour. It is usually performed without anaesthetic but the treated area may be cooled with a frozen compress. The treatment is given with a thin needle under the skin in the specific areas requested. The most common places clients wish to receive anti wrinkle treatment is in their frown, on their forehead and around the eyes.
The treatment involves the injection of a very small volume of a protein that temporary weakens the muscle near the injection site.
Anti wrinkle injections are a very effective treatment for both for mobile wrinkles which get deeper as you frown, laugh and smile, such as crow’s feet and forehead frown lines, as well as the deeper always present frown wrinkles which may rarely need some dermal filler as well for improved results.
The product takes 4 -14 days to work at its best and can have a gradual onset. The result is weaker facial muscles that mean you can't wrinkle those areas you wanted to be smooth. Over time if the wrinkle is not allowed to return, the collagen will improve, the lines will soften and the area will look smoother.
How long does the anti wrinkle treatment last ?
*The length of time the treatment lasts is very individual and depends on a number of factors but in general he first treatment usually lasts about three months. The second treatment may last longer, about 3- 5 months.
In cases where there are very deep wrinkles or damaged collagen fibres, a reduction in the wrinkle should be expected rather than a total wrinkle removal . In this situation it is possible to combine the anti wrinkle treatment, botulinum toxin, with a suitable injectable filler. This can be done at the same visit.
Side Effects.
Anti wrinkle injections have been around for over 20 years, have very few side effects and are very safe. The results last about 3-5 months and repeat anti wrinkle treatments will be required.
We do not inject women who are pregnant, trying to become pregnant or breast feeding.
Very few people get bruising, but it is a risk with any injection. If bruising does occur it is usually very mild, can be covered with makeup and does not last more than a few days. A few people do get a headache after anti wrinkle injections and in a few very rare cases the anti injection treatment fails to work as some people have made antibodies to the substance prior to their treatment.
There is generally no recovery time required for anti wrinkle injections. Following Dermal Filler injections, redness and swelling may last for 24 hours after treatment. Some clients may experience swelling and bruising for around 7 days after dermal filler injections, particularly under the eyes and around the mouth.
Is the procedure painful?
After a slight sting for a few seconds, it is usually painless and there should be no ongoing numbness or redness. A topical anaesthetic and pre treatment ice pack may be applied to make you more comfortable. Please ask if you would like to discuss this option. Most people report minimal pain during or after their treatment.
Preparation for the procedure
Please let us know if you are:
- on any blood thinners such as aspirin and anti inflammatories, warfarin etc.
- pregnant or breast feeding
- have any problems with anaesthetics, including local and topical anaesthetics
- taking fish or krill oils or any over the counter supplements
- have any medical issues or conditions
- are prone to fainting.
Post procedure instructions
Following your anti wrinkle treatment, you should not rub or wash your face for the remainder of that day. You may not lie down for four hours. Do not undertake any strenuous exercise or get excessively hot in showers, saunas or spas for 12 hours. This is so the toxin remains where it was injected and does not spread into other areas and perhaps cause drooping eyelids or other problems.
Following fillers you should drink plenty of water for the first 48 hours and ensure you remain well hydrated.
Do not have fillers if you have an important function or occasion within two weeks after the proposed treatment date.
Some things may reduce the time your antiwrinkle injections will last. These include high levels of physical activity, sun exposure, smoking, stress and weight loss.

ACNE TREATMENTS and SCAR MINIMISATION
Acne and acne scars can have profound social and psychological effects on sufferers.
Acne can lead to issues with self esteem and body image, social withdrawal and problems with work and school. Acne can affect anyone of any age, from 12 to 80 years old, both men and women. There are a number of treatments available but we only use proven methods. Acne scars can also be effectively treated and their appearance reduced.
ACNE TREATMENT
*SGA (Sebacious Gland Ablation) We use Dr McCaffery of Clearskincare Clinics techniques. SGA is an acne treatment that significantly removes the cause of acne, overactive sebaceous glands – leaving your skin much improved and less prone to acne.
Almost all over-the-counter acne products are simply not effective at stopping breakouts from re-occurring. Even prescription acne treatments only control acne + breakouts whilst you take them and often have significant side effects. Long-time acne expert Dr Philippa McCaffery has developed the amazing "in-clinic" acne treatment to eliminate the primary cause of acne in the skin WITHOUT the use of drugs or harsh medication. Now is the time to say goodbye to all those frustrating acne products that just don’t work.
ACNE SCAR TREATMENT
Make Your Skin Look Smooth Again.
*Acne does not need to leave severe scars or marks on your skin. Dr. Cassie offers very effective and affordable acne scar treatments including Skin Needling, SGA (sebaceous gland ablation) and dermal fillers as required. Many clients with acne scarring have different types of scars which need a combination of treatment types to achieve the best possible outcomes. To find out which treatments will be most effective for your scarring please book in for a skin consultation.
How does it work?
Skin Needling both produce thousands of tiny injuries in the dermal layer of the skin. These tiny dermal injuries stimulate the skin’s healing process, leading to the production of new collagen and gradual filling of the scars. The effectiveness of these treatments is dependent on your skin’s ability to make new collagen, which some skins do better than others. Every skin however, can produce new collagen, so every client who has a series of these treatments, will see a result.
What should I expect after my treatment?
The skin is red and swollen for one to two days with a light grazing over the treated area appearing on day two. Most clients are able to return to work and normal activities within 48 hours of treatment.
How many treatments will I need?
Multiple treatments are usually necessary to achieve significant improvement in the appearance and depth of lines and scars. Treatment effects are cumulative and will usually be seen within 6-8 weeks of each treatment.
How much does it cost?
SGA estimate at consultation.
Skin Needling $220.

RED VEIN REMOVAL
This involves the treatment of broken capillaries (small veins) on the face and chest.
Many people believe the red veins on your face are caused by drinking excessive alcohol. This is not correct, they are mostly caused by sun damage.
Let us help you to avoid that red facial flushing.
Treatment involves a small zap to the vein with specialised equipment.
This does sting slightly and local anaesthetic cream can be applied 20 minutes prior if requested. Special cream is applied to the areas treated a few times a day for a few days. You will have small red dots on your face for a few days and these can be covered with mineral makeup. some areas take longer to heal than others and may get some pigmentation which can take a while to fade. Most people require a number of repeat sessions. The exact number of treatments depends on how many veins the client wishes treated and how the veins respond.
Cost:
$200.00 per session (approx - 20 minutes)
*** as with all cosmetic treatments, results will vary from person to person.
