The nose is the central feature of the face and plays a crucial role in maintaining facial balance.
Dermal filler can be used to enhance the shape and size of the nose in proportion to the chin and other facial features.
Contouring the cheeks with dermal filler helps to improve the overall appearance of the facial profile. By adding volume to the cheeks, fillers can help lift and contour the face, which can improve the appearance of the jawline and reduce the appearance of sagging skin.
Lip filler can subtly and naturally enhance your lips and improve your overall facial profile. By adding volume to your lips you can improve the alignment of your nose, lips and chin to achieve the perfect side profile.
Over time, saggy skin under your chin called jowls can appear. Dermal fillers can be injected into the hollow between the chin and the jowl, masking the gap by providing a smooth transition from the chin to the jaw line.
Having a smaller chin in proportion to your nose will make the nose appear more prominent and compromise your facial balance. When dermal filler is strategically placed into the targeted areas of the chin, it will add volume and make the chin appear more substantive.
Profiloplasty or Profile balancing treatment is designed to improve the balance and harmony between your facial features, creating a more defined side profile. This treatment approach focuses on harmonising your facial features by making subtle changes to your silhouette. This then creates a significant difference correcting imbalances between your nose, chin, lips, cheeks, and jawline. This non-surgical approach to improving your silhouette uses dermal filler to emphasise certain features and improve your overall profile. By using dermal fillers to strategically add volume, features can be subtly yet effectively realigned to give a harmonious appearance between your key features.
Depending on the areas treated and the metabolism of the patient, results can last from 6-12 months.
If you suffer from cold sores, make sure that you have an oral prescription prior to your treatment as it may provoke an outbreak.

A profiloplasty is an aesthetic treatment that involves the use of dermal fillers to improve the appearance of the nose, lips, chin, cheeks and jawline areas to achieve a more balanced and harmonious facial profile.
During a dermal filler profiloplasty, a skilled practitioner injects a hyaluronic acid-based filler into targeted areas of the nose and surrounding tissues. The filler can be used to add volume and contour to the nose, smooth out irregularities, and provide lift and support where needed. The result is a more refined, proportionate facial profile.
It is important to note that while dermal filler profiloplasty can produce impressive results, it is a non-surgical procedure with temporary effects. Patients will need to have repeat treatments to maintain their results over time. Additionally, this procedure is not suitable for individuals who require significant structural changes to the nose, such as those with a deviated septum or other underlying nasal deformities. In those cases, a surgical rhinoplasty may be necessary.
The amount of dermal filler used in a profiloplasty can vary depending on the specific needs and goals of the patient. The volume of filler needed to achieve the desired results will depend on factors such as the patient’s anatomy, the degree of correction required, and the type of filler used.
Typically, the amount of filler used in a dermal filler profiloplasty can range from 1 to 3 mL. However, in some cases, more filler may be needed to achieve optimal results. It is important for patients to have a consultation with one of our Doctors who can assess their individual needs and determine the appropriate amount of filler to use.
The duration of the results from a non-surgical profiloplasty can vary depending on several factors, such as the type of filler used, the amount of filler injected, the patient’s individual anatomy and metabolism, and how well they take care of their skin.
In general, the effects of dermal fillers used in a non-surgical profiloplasty can last anywhere from six to eighteen months. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers tend to last on the shorter end of this range, typically six to twelve months, while more robust fillers such as calcium hydroxylapatite or poly-L-lactic acid may last up to eighteen months or longer.
It’s important to note that dermal filler treatments are not permanent and will require regular maintenance sessions to maintain the results over time. Additionally, individual results may vary, and some patients may experience a longer or shorter duration of effect based on their individual factors. It is important to consult with a qualified practitioner to determine what to expect for your specific case.
