Botox®, Profhilo® & Fillers In Newcastle

At RP Aesthetics, we believe the age-old saying ‘less is more’ greatly applies to cosmetic enhancement. But this doesn’t necessarily mean limiting the number of treatments you receive. This may sound counterintuitive, but a combination of aesthetic procedures often gleans the most natural-looking results. Richard Peppiatt specialises in injectables, providing Botox®, Profhilo® and Dermal Fillers in Newcastle. He draws upon years of experience and training to create bespoke treatment plans for each client at his Jesmond Clinic. By assessing the face holistically and respecting the anatomy of each feature, Richard’s procedures create balance, so you’ll stay looking young without ever looking artificial.

Why Is Botox® So Popular?

Botox® provides a quick, minimally invasive solution to wrinkle reduction, delivering a more youthful look without the need for surgery. It works by temporarily paralysing targeted muscles through the injection of botulinum toxin. This blocks nerve signals to the muscles, thereby smoothing the overlying skin. The most common areas treated with Botox® include the forehead, crow’s feet around the eyes and frown lines between the eyebrows. But despite its aesthetic benefits and huge popularity, Botox® does not reverse all signs of ageing. We recommend Dermal Fillers in Newcastle if you’re treating volume loss or sagging skin. These complementary treatments provide a more robust defence against ageing when used together.

Why Choose Fillers In Newcastle?

Dermal Fillers address volume loss, enhance facial contours and smooth away deep-set wrinkles. Among the most popular types of Fillers in Newcastle are hyaluronic acid (HA) formulas such as Juvéderm®, and hybrid Fillers including HArmonyCa™. HA-based Fillers are renowned for their ability to attract and retain moisture, making them ideal for plumping areas like the lips, cheeks and nasolabial folds. They offer immediate results and can be tailored to achieve subtle or more pronounced enhancements.

HArmonyCa™ is the world’s first dual-action Filler, combining HA with calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA). This unique formula provides an immediate volumising effect and also stimulates collagen production through the CaHA component, leading to longer-lasting results. Calcium hydroxyapatite Fillers retain less water, making them better suited to firmer features like the chin and jawline.

Richard Peppiatt may suggest using a combination of Fillers in Newcastle to address different ageing concerns. Treating a feature in isolation may lead to unnatural results, whereas addressing multiple areas creates harmony at an individual level. In this way, combination treatments are more likely to gain a subtle, ‘less is more’ appearance.

Have You Tried Profhilo® Yet?

Profhilo® is an injectable treatment designed to combat skin laxity and improve overall skin quality through the delivery of high concentrations of hyaluronic acid. Unlike traditional Fillers in Newcastle, Profhilo® is not used to add volume, but to bio-remodel your skin. When injected, it disperses evenly across the dermal layer, stimulating skin cell receptors and increasing collagen production. This process enhances skin hydration, texture and elasticity, leading to a natural-looking rejuvenation.

When combined with other treatments such as Botox® or Fillers, Profhilo® can significantly enhance overall anti-ageing results. The beneath-the-skin moisturiser complements these treatments by improving skin quality, providing a hydrating and firming boost that enhances the effects of other anti-ageing treatments. This synergistic approach addresses multiple signs of ageing – dynamic wrinkles, volume loss and skin laxity – leading to a refreshed and youthful appearance.

What To Expect If You’re Getting Botox®, Profhilo® Or Fillers In Newcastle

Before booking a treatment, you are required to attend a consultation with Richard. This session will cover your aesthetic goals, medical history, and any medications you are taking to ensure the treatments are safe and suitable for you. Richard will assess your skin and recommend the best combination of treatments for a natural result.

Alcohol should be avoided for at least a week before your treatment to minimise the risk of bruising. The length of your procedure is dependent on how many areas are being treated and the severity of ageing and you may be asked to attend multiple treatments spaced a few weeks apart. Most patients experience minimal discomfort, but our choice of Fillers in Newcastle contains lidocaine, an anaesthetic that reduces pain.

Post-treatment care is crucial for optimal results and minimising side effects. Avoid touching or massaging the treated areas for at least 24 hours, and refrain from strenuous exercise, alcohol consumption and exposure to extreme temperatures for a minimum of 48 hours. Staying hydrated and gently applying ice packs can reduce swelling and discomfort.
