How The 7-Point Lift Restores Facial Balance Without Surgery

One of the most effective ways to achieve complete facial anti-ageing is through the 7-Point Lift. Using Dermal Fillers at targeted locations, Richard Peppiatt can enhance volume in key areas, creating a lifted and refreshed look. The technique is designed to restore youthful contours, improve definition and bring balance back to your face in a natural and elegant way.

What is the 7-Point Lift?

The 7-Point Lift is a strategic Dermal Filler treatment developed to subtly lift and re-contour the face. Instead of focusing on isolated problem areas, this technique works with the entire facial structure for a more holistic anti-ageing result. By treating multiple key ‘points’, it delivers a more youthful appearance while maintaining natural expression.

Where are the 7 Points?

Each ‘point’ is an injection site carefully chosen to address common signs of ageing:

1. Cheekbone (zygomatic arch): Adds lift and projection to the midface, restoring youthful curves.
2. Mid-cheek (anterior cheek): Replaces lost volume and smooths the transition between the under-eye and cheek.
3. Nasolabial fold support: Reduces heaviness in the smile lines.
4. Pre-jowl sulcus: Softens shadows that form either side of the chin.
5. Mandibular angle: Defines the back of the jawline for sharper contour.
6. Jawline (along the body of the mandible): Smooths and sculpts the jawline.
7. Chin (anterior projection): Enhances the profile and balances facial proportions.

Type of Filler Used

Typically, a hyaluronic acid (HA)-based filler is used for the 7-point Lift, such as Juvederm® Voluma or Volux. These premium fillers are chosen for their ability to provide structure and longevity, while remaining soft enough to move naturally with your facial expressions.

What is the 9-Point Lift?

For male patients, or for those desiring a stronger, more defined facial structure, Richard adapts the technique into a 9-Point Lift. This approach includes the original seven points plus two additional injection sites.

The Extra Two Points:

1. Mandibular body (lateral jawline augmentation): Enhances width for a stronger, masculine angle.
2. Chin width: Broadens and squares the chin for a more traditionally masculine appearance.

This is particularly effective if you want to achieve a square jaw and stronger chin.

Who is the Treatment Best Suited To?

This treatment is well suited to women who are looking for a subtle lift, contour and fresher appearance without appearing like they’ve had ‘work done’, as well as men who want a more masculine profile or correction of age-related sagging. It is an excellent option for anyone noticing the early signs of ageing, such as a loss of volume in the cheeks or a softening jawline. The 7-Point Lift can also help if you’re seeking greater facial balance, for example if you have a set-back chin or sunken cheeks.

Why A Holistic Approach Matters

One of the most important principles of aesthetics is facial balance. Sometimes, treating a single area can make the result look discordant. That’s why Richard carries out a detailed facial analysis during every consultation. When performing a 7-Point Lift, his focus is always on facial harmony. This means no two procedures are the same. The amount of Filler used at each ‘point’ will depend on your unique profile, loss of volume and wrinkles.

Richard may also advise whether combining treatments will give the best outcome. Options may include:

• Anti-Wrinkle Injections to relax dynamic lines.
• Profhilo® to improve skin hydration and elasticity.
• Obagi® Skincare for long-term skin health and radiance.

These can be used as stand-alone treatments or alongside the 7-Point Lift or 9-Point Lift for a truly bespoke plan.
