Your consultation
Do I need a consultation first?
Yes. Every client begins with an in-depth consultation before any treatment. We assess your face and skin, discuss your goals and medical history, and recommend only what is right for you. Some treatments involve prescription-only medicines, which can only be prescribed after a face-to-face assessment by a qualified prescriber.
Where are your clinics?
7 Wynnstay Road, Colwyn Bay, LL29 8NB, and Beach Road, Y Felinheli, LL56 4RQ. We also hold regular pop-up clinics in London.
How do I book?
You can book online at any time, or call or WhatsApp us on 07490 129701. We are open Monday to Saturday, by appointment.
Can I have treatment if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. We do not provide injectable treatments during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
Anti-wrinkle treatment
What is anti-wrinkle treatment?
Anti-wrinkle treatment uses a prescription-only medicine to temporarily relax the specific muscles that cause expression lines, softening lines such as frown lines, forehead lines and crow's feet. Whether it is suitable for you is decided at your consultation.
How long does it last?
Results typically last 2 to 4 months. This varies from person to person, depending on factors such as your metabolism, muscle strength and lifestyle.
When will I see results?
You will usually notice a difference within a few days, with the full effect visible at around two weeks.
How long does the appointment take?
The treatment itself usually takes around 15 minutes.
What does the treatment involve?
Nayema administers a precise series of tiny injections using a very fine needle. Most clients find it very comfortable.
Which areas can be treated?
Common areas include forehead lines, frown lines between the brows, crow's feet, bunny lines on the nose, a gummy smile, the corners of the mouth and the jawline (masseter muscles). It can also be used for some medical conditions, such as excessive sweating and migraines. Your options are discussed at consultation.
Are there any side effects?
Most clients experience no significant side effects. Possible effects include mild headache, redness at the injection points, temporary muscle weakness, facial discomfort and, rarely, drooping of the eyelid. We go through all possible side effects with you before treatment.
What should I do after treatment?
For 24 hours afterwards, avoid strenuous exercise, swimming, ibuprofen, sunbathing and sunbeds. Avoid excess alcohol on the day of treatment, and do not lie down for 3 hours afterwards.
Dermal fillers
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are non-permanent injectable gels made from hyaluronic acid. They soften lines and wrinkles, restore lost volume, and enhance and contour areas of the face.
What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid (HA) occurs naturally in the body and helps keep skin hydrated, plump and supple. HA fillers support facial structures that have lost volume or elasticity.
Which areas can be treated?
Cheeks, temples, under the eyes (tear troughs), nose, chin, jawline, nasolabial folds and marionette lines.
How long do fillers last?
Typically 6 to 15 months, depending on the area treated and the individual. We use the Juvéderm range of dermal fillers.
How long does the appointment take?
Between 30 and 45 minutes, depending on the area. The Renovo Facelift takes around 60 minutes.
What is the Renovo Facelift?
Our signature 8-point technique restores volume in eight strategic areas of the face, lifting and refreshing your features while keeping results subtle and natural.
What is tear trough treatment?
Filler placed carefully under the eyes to soften hollows and shadows, for a fresher, more rested appearance.
What is non-surgical rhinoplasty?
An advanced technique that uses dermal filler to reshape and refine the nose, without surgery.
When will I see results, and are there side effects?
Results are visible straight away. Some minor swelling or bruising is normal and usually settles within a few hours, and the product settles fully over a few days.
Lip enhancement
What is lip enhancement?
Carefully placed dermal filler to shape, define, hydrate or add volume to the lips, and to soften fine lines around the mouth. Results are always tailored to your features.
How long does it last?
Typically 3 to 12 months, depending on the individual.
How long does the appointment take?
Around 30 minutes.
Is it painful?
We make treatment as comfortable as possible. Our fillers contain a local anaesthetic (lidocaine), and we apply numbing cream beforehand.
Should I have 1ml or 0.5ml?
We usually recommend 1ml. 0.5ml is normally used as a top-up. Nayema will advise you at your consultation.
When will I see results, and are there side effects?
Results are visible immediately. Some swelling or bruising is normal and usually settles within 24 hours.
