Injectable moisturiser fillers boost hydration and reduce fine lines and wrinkles in one simple step - for that lifted / tightened all round glow!

These fillers are similar to the hyaluronic acid fillers that we offer to add volume to the face, with one major difference; these products provide hydration and glowing skin rather than adding volume to the face or changing its shape.
“Profhilo is a gentle, regenerative treatment, not comparable to dermal fillers or wrinkle-relaxing botox, which add volume/contour to the face, or relax facial muscles, respectively. In that sense, Profhilo is completely different from fillers and botox and should not be seen as a replacement, but as an addition. It's also a great starter option (on its own) for less mature skin that does not (yet) need other cosmetic injectables. It's very popular, as the results are guaranteed to be natural looking.”
- Cosmetic Dermatologist Dr Stefanie Williams
We like to achieve subtle results for our customers when applying injectable treatments and these moisturising fillers and face sculpting treatments are the perfect treatment to do this.
These moisturising fillers come in various forms:
- Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the fluids in the eyes and joints. It acts as a cushion and lubricant in the joints and other tissues. Different forms of hyaluronic acid are used for cosmetic purposes. Hyaluronic acid helps skin stretch and flex and reduces skin wrinkles and lines, and is also proven to help wounds heal faster and can reduce scarring.
- Amino acids (protein) help to strengthen the immune system, maintain the skin's hydration, resilience and an overall healthy appearance. They protect skin from free-radical damage and reduce signs of ageing.
- Peptides (also called polypeptides) naturally occur in the skin, but they’re also included in many skin care products - and for good reason! Peptides are amino acids that make up certain proteins needed by the skin. More specifically, collagen is made of three polypeptide chains, so adding peptides can stimulate your skin to make collagen. More collagen leads to firmer, younger-looking skin.
- Sue Atkinson Aesthetics & Wellness Clinic in Sheffield offers these Skin Booster injections (sometimes called Profhilo), formulated depending on your specific skin requirements.

We achieve subtle results for our customers when applying injectable treatments such as hyaluronic acid moisturising treatment, botulinum toxin for muscle relaxation and dermal fillers for defined facial contours, fuller lips or softened facial lines.
Line Tamer is a phenomenally successful treatment in massive demand.
Predominantly applied for the softening and smoothing of expression lines, i.e. frown lines, forehead lines and crows feet.
Line Tamer Muscle Relaxing Treatments are the UK’s most popular cosmetic treatment. The treatment is quick, safe and painless, and the results are fantastic. This is the most successful treatment for the forehead frown lines and crows’ feet. Line Tamer works by relaxing a specific muscle that is causing the creases, resulting in a softening or even eradication of the unwanted lines. The skin will smooth whilst still leaving your natural expression.
Every time we smile, laugh or frown, we activate a series of contractions in the muscles of the face. Over a period of time these contractions create creases in the skin which make us look anxious, worried and aged.
Over a period of 2 weeks this simple, quick procedure eliminates those tiresome lines leaving you looking refreshed, revitalised and youthful. Our practitioners are the UK’s leaders in muscle relaxing injections. The ideal result softens and takes out lines however, still leaving some natural expression.
The fact that 90% of people who try this treatment repeat it, is its own recommendation!
How does the treatment work?
Line Tamer is a medical grade, highly purified natural protein which is injected in minute quantities to the area requiring treatment. Over the next few days the message for the muscle to contract is blocked, which results in the skin smoothing and wrinkles softening. Over time, the smoothing and softening effect improves. The treatment is not permanent and the results usually lasts for 3 - 6 months.
Is the treatment safe?
This treatment has been used in the NHS for over 30 years for treatment of a variety of conditions, and in facial treatments for over 15 years. Muscle relaxants have an excellent safety record and are biodegradable. Hundreds of thousands of treatments are carried out every month, and is suitable for almost everyone.
Can I get Addicted to the Treatment?
Muscle Relaxants are not an addictive drug.
Are there any side-effects?
There are few side effects to Injectable Muscle Relaxants. The most common is a slight headache immediately after treatment, however muscle relaxant injections are now often used for the treatment of Headaches and Migraine symptoms. Occasionally, there can be mild bruising at the injection site.
Is the Treatment painful?
Feedback tells us no - most people are pleasantly surprised at to how painless the treatment is. Most people compare it to a slight scratch.

A Natural Beauty Lift
Impressions of beauty change with time, as do our faces as we age. With Dermal Fillers, you can have a natural beauty lift with the body’s own material. Dermal fillers are a crystal clear, non animal, biodegradable gel, based on a natural substance, called hyaluronic acid.
What happens when we age?
Young skin is smooth and elastic and contains a large amount of hyaluronic acid that helps skin to look healthy. As we grow older, the ability of the skin to produce hyaluronic acid decreases and the amount in the skin begins to fall. As hyaluronic acid helps to bind water; the ability of the skin to retrain water also declines with age. As a result, the skin becomes drier, thinner and less able to restore itself. The loss of skin fullness also means that the skin becomes looser. This leads to wrinkling, folds and the older appearance of the skin. Age is not the only cause of wrinkles. Smoking, sun bathing and pollution damage the structure of your skin, irrespective of age.
Hyaluronic acid treatments have been used safely in over 2 million treatments in more than 70 countries worldwide – so you can be assured that it has a proven track record.

Micro Needling Skin Rejuvenation.
Advance skin needling is an effective method of stimulating collagen production, reducing lines, scarring and improving skin texture.
Known as one of the most popular pre-Oscar beauty treatments - the stars are one step ahead and renew their skin with restoration treatments to keep it looking at its best. Our skin treatments have been formulated to stimulate collagen and elastin as well as renew the epidermis, restoring that youthful bloom.
We offer a professional medical result without down-time, due to the very latest in skin research and technology. This treatment is becoming more and more popular due to the dramatic results that can be achieved. A luxurious skin restoration package, the treatment is comfortable without the soreness of other resurfacing methods, however visibly effective resulting in radiant skin.
Key to this is hyaluronic acid. This occurs naturally in our bodies where it plays an important role in hydrating skin. Hyaluronic acid keeps our skin firm, supple and looking healthy. However, as we age our skin cells loose their ability to produce this all-important substance. The inevitable result of this is skin that is drier, thinner and lacking in volume, skin that can so easily give away our age, and even make us look older than we are.
The treatment can be used in all skin areas, including the face, neck, décolletage and the backs of your hands. In addition to looking younger and healthier, you will feel the difference that the treatment makes. Because the treatment releases hyaluronic acid gradually over a period of time, the benefits generally last for several months.
Unlike most hydrating/ skin rejuvenating treatments available, ours is derived entirely form a non-animal source and needs no extra additives. This results in safe and natural treatment that is also gentle to your skin.

Medical Skin Restoring with TCA EasyPeel.
Over the years, exposure to the sun, wind and other factors can take a toll on your skin. Many facial peel treatment options are designed to accelerate the removal of old dead cells at the surface of the skin, bringing forth the softer, smoother skin below. Peel treatments are very gentle.
There are several types of chemical peel, each using different chemicals and fruit acids. Light and medium depth peels use TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid). The gentler alternative is available in the form of a Glycolic Acid Peel.
The TCA peel works by causing sloughing or removal of the upper layers of skin. Normally these are the layers that are damaged by the elements such as sun, wind and neglect. By removing the upper layers of skin, the overall skin texture is dramatically smoothed, superficial wrinkles are quickly eliminated and colour irregularities are improved. The advantage of this peel is that its pasty like texture makes the application easy and ensures even uptake into the skin. Patients benefit by regaining a fresher more vibrant appearance.
It has been used for many years to treat facial wrinkles, age spots, pigment abnormalities, mask of pregnancy and other superficial skin problems such as sun damaged skin (including pre-cancerous lesions), acne / acne scarring, freckles, appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and the appearance of superficial scars.
The TCA Peel is one of the most innovative ways to easily and optimally rejuvenate the skin using a special based formulation.

Hyperhidrosis is abnormally excessive sweating that's not necessarily related to heat or exercise. You may sweat so much that it soaks through your clothes or drips off your hands. Besides disrupting normal daily activities, this type of heavy sweating can cause social anxiety and embarrassment.
This treatment provides a safe, comfortable and effective answer with their hyperhidrosis treatment.
A series of small injections are applied to the affected area. The impulse to produce perspiration is rendered ineffective and the problem is alleviated. The treatment can last for up to 48 weeks.
The treatment is quick, safe and painless, using the same toxin as for the Line Tamer treatment, and the results are fantastic.
How does the treatment work?
After carrying out a simple check to locate the sweat glands, a medical grade, highly purified protein is injected in minute quantities to the area requiring treatment. This blocks the nerve impulses to the sweat glands and reduces perspiration. Over the next few days the sweating will decrease by up to 95%.
Is the Hyperhidrosis Treatment safe?
This treatment has been used in the NHS for over 30 years for treatment of a variety of conditions, and has an excellent safety record.
How common is Hyperhidrosis?
About one person in 200 has some form of hyperhidrosis.
How long will the Treatment Last?
The treatment is not permanent but the results can last up to 9 months.
