Botox & Fillers – What You Need to Know

A Guide To Botox and Filler Treatments at True Medispa Skin Clinic, Twickenham

Botox and dermal fillers are two of the most effective non-surgical treatments for facial rejuvenation. At True Medispa in Twickenham, Richmond, we offer expert injectable treatments designed to soften lines, restore volume, and refresh your appearance – with results that look natural and refined.

What is Botox?

Botox is a purified protein that temporarily relaxes targeted muscles. By doing so, it smooths out fine lines and wrinkles caused by facial movement, helping the skin appear more even, refreshed and youthful.

Which Areas Can Be Treated with Botox?

Botox is commonly used to treat:

✓ Forehead lines
✓ Frown lines (between the brows)
✓ Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
✓ Bunny lines (on the nose)
✓ Lip lines
✓ Chin dimpling
✓ Jaw tension (masseter muscles)
✓ Neck bands
✓ Gummy smile

It can also be used for advanced reshaping, such as a brow lift or slimming the lower face.

How Long Do Botox Results Last?

You’ll begin to see results within 3 to 5 days, with the full effect visible after 10 to 14 days. Results typically last around 3 to 4 months, though this varies depending on the treatment area and individual factors. With regular appointments, the effects may last longer and require less frequent maintenance.

Botox for Excessive Sweating

Botox is also an effective treatment for excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis. When injected into areas such as the underarms, hands, or feet, it blocks the nerve signals that activate sweat glands. This significantly reduces perspiration for several months, making a huge difference to everyday comfort and confidence.

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Unlike Botox, which relaxes muscles, dermal fillers work by adding volume or restoring lost volume. They are most commonly made from hyaluronic acid – a substance naturally found in the skin. Fillers can smooth lines, enhance facial contours, and refresh your overall appearance with results that are both subtle and long-lasting.

Which Areas Can Be Treated with Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are incredibly versatile. They can be used to treat:

✓ Lips – for volume, shape, and hydration
✓ Cheeks – to lift and define
✓ Nasolabial folds – the lines running from the nose to the mouth
✓ Marionette lines – from the mouth to the chin
✓ Jawline – for structure and contour
✓ Chin – to balance the facial profile
✓ Tear troughs – to improve tired-looking under-eyes
✓ Nose – in a treatment known as liquid rhinoplasty

What is Liquid Rhinoplasty?

Liquid rhinoplasty is a non-surgical nose reshaping treatment using dermal fillers. It can smooth out bumps, improve symmetry, and lift the tip of the nose, all without the downtime of traditional surgery. The results are instant, with no general anaesthetic or long recovery period needed. It’s a popular choice for clients who want to subtly refine the appearance of their nose without undergoing surgery.

While not a permanent solution, the effects of liquid rhinoplasty typically last between 9 to 12 months, depending on the individual. As with all filler treatments at True Medispa, it’s carried out with great precision to ensure natural-looking, balanced results.

How Long Do Fillers Last?

Most dermal fillers last between 6 and 12 months, depending on the area treated, the type of product used, and how your body metabolises it. Areas such as the lips may need more regular maintenance, while cheek or jawline treatments can last longer. Your True Medispa aesthetics expert will give you clear advice on what to expect.
