Long working hours, pollution, an unhealthy diet – many factors can impact the appearance of your skin.
Although any part of the body can be affected, the face, which offers the first impression, is more visible.
Luckily, the introduction of non-surgical cosmetic treatments in the UK has helped to restore youthful looks. The choices vary from Botox injections to dermal fillers to lip re-contouring. Each procedure has its pros and cons and you will have to decide which one of them is the right fit for you.
In this guide, we discuss the top quick cosmetic treatments to get back your younger looking skin. So, don’t worry about wrinkles or saggy skin again. But ensure that you check the provider and plastic surgeon are registered and qualified to conduct such cosmetic procedures.
Botox Injections
Botox is a non-invasive injection used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and facial lines. It is one of the most popular facial procedures in the UK, and its demand is expected to continue to rise. A Botox injection is directly administered to the face muscles to reduce the movement of muscles and nerves. The injection is quick and effective, especially when administered by the best cosmetic experts and plastic surgeons in the UK.
Botox contains BOCOUTURE and is administered as a temporary injection. This means that within minutes you can maintain optimal skin results. Another benefit is that it does not change the original shape and appearance of the face. The administration procedure is concise, as it takes a maximum of 15 minutes. The injections can be repeated at least three times a year for your ideal younger looking skin.
Ensure that you research facial rejuvenation experts carefully as your Botox treatments might have to be repeated and you’d want to be in the hands of trustworthy and experienced professional.
On average, a single treatment ranges from £ 200 and £450 and it is suitable for everyone above the age of 18. Before your course of treatment will be decided, the rejuvenation expert will conduct an examination and assessment to ensure that the client achieves the best outcomes.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are non-invasive facial procedures used to soften facial creases and get rid of wrinkles. Unlike many facial treatments, dermal fillers are only used to treat specific parts of the face.
There are many types of dermal fillers on the UK market, but the most common is Restylane. The purposes of dermal fillers can range from filling facial hollows to reducing wrinkles or plumping the lips. By speaking with your experienced plastic surgeon, you will learn more about the available treatment options for fillers.
While the chemicals may not be ideal or perfect for everyone, they have several benefits. First, they are cost-effective compared to surgical procedures. Also, the risks involved are minimal.
The most notable feature associated with these fillers is that it can take an extended period to show results. Actually, many Britons show results between 6 to 24 months. During that period, the patients must visit the clinic frequently for additional injections.
However, this is not a big deal as the results shown after that period are admirable and effective for a longer term. Anybody can undertake dermal fillers, provided that they are not terrified of needles. The procedure is equally as fast as the Botox procedure and the cost is also similar. So, it’s certainly worth considering as it offers better, faster and easier results than invasive surgeries.
Lip Enhancement
Having full and plump lips is often considered a sign of beauty and good health.
Whether you were born with misaligned/misshapen lips, thin lips or ageing is affecting the appearance of your lips, lip enhancement can be of help to you.
You can get your lips plumped at any age, with plenty of lip enhancement procedures in the UK. Lip fillers are non-invasive, and they restore the lips’ volume to increase the patient’s confidence. The process can be done at any angle of the mouth, injecting hyaluronic acid using a small needle. If you are 
not satisfied with the results, the procedure can be undone.
If you have never undertaken any cosmetic procedure, having a lip enhancement can be a little bit daunting. To clear your doubts, we have discussed the main pros and cons of the process.
Lip fillers have many benefits. Firstly, they are non-invasive, and does not leave visible scars on your face. Secondly, the procedure is relatively pain-free. It is also done within a short period, giving you enough flexibility to continue with your daily roles. The recovery period is almost instant, and the procedure is quickly completed, usually within 15 minutes.
Lip augmentation starts from £495 per treatment so is slightly more expensive than dermal fillers and Botox.
About the downsides, the temporary nature of the treatment means that you will need to repeat the procedure more often. Secondly, there is a possibility that your lips may not achieve the desired look. If you are allergic to the fillers, the lips may become asymmetrical from swelling.
Luckily, you can avoid the drawbacks by having the procedure done by the best lip filler experts in the United Kingdom.
Mini-Face lifts
These short minor surgical face treatments can offer more effective solutions for more severely aged, saggy facial skin. The treatment is ideal for patients who need more than dermal fillers or Botox. Patients can achieve a naturally younger looking facial skin of up to 10 to 12 years difference by transforming and moving the sub dermal tissues to their original places.
Some of the popular face lift procedures include eye lifts and brow lifts. A mini face lift decision is only made after several consultations with a plastic surgeon as it is not reversible and requires the patient to undergo minor incisions and sedation or local anesthesia.
Mini-face lift procedures have their cons and pros. For instance, one of the benefits is that it gives you a more youthful look. If you have had loose skin or wrinkles for a long time, this treatment will improve your appearance and confidence in the long run. Another benefit is that the results are long-lasting, and you won’t have to repeat this procedure for another ten or more years.
On the other hand, a mini-face lift treatment takes some time to recover. Your face might be swollen for the first 21 days, while the complete recovery journey might take up to six months. The treatment is, therefore, not the best for you if you are looking for immediate and less painful results.
Another con is that the procedure will certainly cost a lot more! According to the NHS you should “expect to pay anything from a few thousand pounds for a mini facelift to £10,000 for a face and neck lift”.
