HOW FILLERS CAN HELP YOU EMBRACE THE MAKE-UP FREE TREND

THE NEW FEMINIST MOVEMENT INSISTS THAT WOMEN ARE JUST FINE THE WAY THEY ARE:

there is a movement against rigorous body hair removal, with armpits and legs being allowed to sprout luxurious growth. Along with this reluctance to shave or wax comes a refusal to wear high heels, despite the salutary effect they have on the shape of the leg, and more and more women of a certain age are choosing to no longer wear makeup for every public outing.

While this rejection can feel liberating for some, it can also be very concerning for others who feel naked baring their skin, especially in the age of the selfie.From around the mid-to-late thirties, fine lines begin to creep over a women’s face. This is an almost purely female problem as men have skin that is up to twenty-five per cent thicker than a women’s, which means it resists ageing more readily than fine female skin. These lines can look attractive, giving warmth, humour and character when they form pleasingly around the eyes and mouth, but all too often they are unsightly, sagging and pulling down the corners of the mouth and emphasising the natural thinning of the lips that also occurs around this time of life.

One way to make sure that you can maintain a natural nude look for longer is by the judicious use of cosmetic processes such as lip fillers. Of course, we have all seen examples of those rare people who suffer a condition known as dysmorphia in which they have cosmetic surgery after surgery, making the end result look overdone.

These days lip fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally occurring in the body. The filler is injected into the area that is showing signs of crepe skin and sagging, and plumps it up, returning it to a youthful freshness.

Properly performed processes – such as the lip fillers that Michelle Keegan is reputed to have recently invested in – are very subtle and simply erase the lines without creating that over-stretched, tight look. Fillers will eventually wear off, but the need to have them topped up occasionally is more than repaid by the admiration that will be garnered from being able to go make-up free into your fifties. To find out more, speak to us at Belvedere Clinic today.
