Facial Volume Loss

Natural results come from restoring what has been lost rather than adding where it was never there. Paula's approach is always to use the minimum effective amount of filler to achieve a refreshed, lifted look — never overfilled or distorted. The goal is for people to think you look well-rested, not to wonder what you've had done.

Dermal filler (hyaluronic acid) replaces volume immediately upon injection. Sculptra (poly-L-lactic acid) works differently — it stimulates your own collagen production over 3 months, creating a gradual, very natural volumising effect that lasts up to 2 years. Paula will recommend the right approach based on your anatomy and goals.

This varies significantly between individuals depending on the degree of volume loss and the areas being treated. Paula will assess your facial structure at consultation and recommend the appropriate volume. The principle is always conservative — it is easier to add more than to remove too much.

Most clients experience some mild redness, swelling, or bruising for 24–72 hours following treatment, though many have no significant downtime at all. Paula will advise on aftercare and recommend avoiding strenuous exercise and alcohol for 24 hours post-treatment.
