CHOOSING THE RIGHT AESTHETICS TREATMENT FOR YOUR SKIN CAN BE OVERWHELMING, AS THERE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT TREATMENTS TO CHOOSE FROM, EACH DIFFERING SLIGHTLY IN METHOD, BUT ALL CLAIMING A MORE YOUTHFUL APPEARANCE.

Two popular choices we offer at our clinic in Marlow are, dermal fillers and bio-remodelling (Profhilo® and Ameela®), both aim to combat signs of aging but work in distinctly different ways. Here we will look at both in more detail and make comparisons, to help you make an informed decision that is right for you.

WHAT ARE BIO-REMODELLING INJECTIONS?

Bio-Remodelling treatments are injectable cosmetic procedures designed to enhance skin quality and appearance. Utilizing a hyaluronic acid (HA) based cocktail to stimulate collagen and elastin production, These key components play a crucial role in maintaining the skin’s structure, elasticity, and hydration. As we age, the natural production of these substances decreases, leading to the formation of wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin. Facial bioremodelling aims to reverse these signs of aging by promoting the regeneration of these essential elements.

Facial bioremodelling typically involves the injection of bioactive substances into the skin. The most commonly used substances include hyaluronic acid (Profhilo®) and polynucleotides (Ameela®). Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring molecule in the skin that helps maintain hydration and volume, while polynucleotides are nucleic acid derivatives that stimulate cell regeneration and collagen synthesis.

The injections are strategically administered to target specific areas of the face, such as the cheeks, jawline, and under-eye area. The procedure is relatively quick and often requires little to no downtime, making it an attractive option for those with busy lifestyles.

Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Bio-Remodelling injectables contain a unique formulation of high- and low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid. This composition allows for even distribution throughout the skin, providing hydration and nourishment to deeper layers. Typically injected into the face, neck, or hands, Bio-Remodelling is a versatile treatment addressing various skin concerns.

Profhilo® is a Globally recognised hyaluronic acid (HA) based formulation, and a highly successful bio-remodelling treatment which has long lasting results, boasting some fantastic results for its patients. Profhilo® is also an excellent solution to reduce saggy skin on the body, such as under arms, knees and tummy.

Ameela® is a polynucleotide based injectable, fairly new to the market, but is proving extremely popular due to its natural composition, working on improving microcirculation, collagen and elastin production from beneath the surface of the skin.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BIO-REMODELLING INJECTIONS?

Bio-remodelling is particularly effective in treating skin laxity (sagging skin), dryness, and fine lines, making it a popular choice for people who want vibrant, radiant youthful skin. Results from our Ameela® patients have been extremely positive because it is you, but your youthful self, with no paralysis of wrinkles or too much volume. Overall benefits of bio-remodelling treatments like Profhilo® and Ameela® include:

Skin rejuvenation: Bio-remodelling can be used to improve the overall quality of the skin, making it look more youthful, hydrated, and glowing.

Anti-ageing: The treatment can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen and elastin production.

Skin laxity: Bio-remodelling can be used to address skin laxity or the loss of firmness and elasticity in the skin.
Hydration: The treatment provides deep hydration to the skin, making it an effective solution for dry or dehydrated skin.

Hand rejuvenation: Bio-remodelling can be used to improve the appearance and texture of the skin on the hands, reducing the visible signs of ageing.

There is no downtime following the treatment, making it a popular choice for people who want to improve their skin quality and appearance without undergoing invasive or surgical procedures.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF DERMAL FILLERS?

An extremely popular treatment across the Globe, dermal fillers are a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that involves injecting a gel-like substance beneath the skin to add volume, smooth out wrinkles, enhance facial features and create a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.

Although dermal fillers are often composed of hyaluronic acid (HA), they can also contain other chemicals such as poly-L-lactic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, or polymethyl methacrylate, and each type of filler brand has unique properties and is used for specific areas of the face, addressing a variety of concerns including:

Wrinkles and fine lines: Fillers can be used to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines, particularly around the mouth, nose, and forehead.

Volume loss: Our face can lose volume as we age, resulting in a sunken or hollow appearance. Dermal fillers can be used to restore volume to the cheeks, temples and tear troughs.

Lip augmentation: Fillers can be used to add volume and shape to the lips, giving them a fuller and more defined appearance.

Scar reduction: Certain types of fillers can be used to reduce the appearance of scars, particularly those caused by acne.

Facial contouring: Fillers can be used to enhance and contour areas of the face, such as the jawline or cheeks.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BIO-REMODELLING AND DERMAL FILLERS?

Bio-remodelling treatments like Profhilo® and Ameela® and dermal fillers are both non-surgical cosmetic treatments that can help improve the skin’s appearance. Bio-remodelling is a hyaluronic acid-based treatment that is designed to hydrate the skin at a deeper level in multiple points to improve the quality of the skin.

Dermal fillers, on the other hand, are typically used to add volume to specific areas of the face, such as the cheeks or lips, or to fill in wrinkles and lines. They are also usually made of hyaluronic acid, but can be formulated with different thicknesses to achieve different effects.

Choosing between bio-remodelling and dermal fillers depends upon your aesthetic goals. Bio-remodelling offers a subtle overall improvement, while dermal fillers provide more targeted and immediate results.

CAN BIO-REMODELLING BE USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH OTHER ANTI-AGING AND INJECTABLE TREATMENTS?

Depending on your personal aesthetic goals, bio-remodelling can be combined with other cosmetic treatments to optimize overall results.

Dermal fillers is one of these treatments. Combining bio-remodelling with dermal fillers enhances the overall texture and hydration of the skin, complementing the focused contouring provided by filler treatments.

Anti-wrinkle (Botox) injections relax facial muscles, diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. By pairing anti-wrinkle injections with bio-remodelling, you can enhance skin texture, with anti-wrinkle treatments targeting specific wrinkles and lines.

As skin resurfacing treatments, chemical peels reduce the visibility of fine lines, sun damage, and aging signs. Combining bio-remodelling with chemical peels not only improves skin hydration and texture but also capitalizes on the exfoliating and rejuvenating effects of the peels.

Both bio-remodelling treatments like Profhilo® and Ameela®, and dermal fillers are considered safe treatments but have side effects, such as temporary swelling, redness, or bruising, and that the results will vary from person to person. it is important to do your research, gather information about the treatments and be clear about your long term goals, to ensure you receive the right treatment for you.
