Patient story – David: “Very subtle, very impressive”
The Concern
David was a first-time patient at Hannah London – and he’d never had an aesthetic treatment before.
At Hannah London, one of the most important things for our new patients is that they feel comfortable and confident that their treatment will deliver subtle, natural-looking results – small tweakments that can help them feel fresher, more confident and more like themselves.
This can be particularly important for patients who are having aesthetic treatments for the first time. Some male patients, for example, can feel apprehensive about treatment if they are concerned that the results might look obvious or unnatural.
David had started to feel conscious about expression lines – around his eyes and, in particular, his nasolabial or smile lines that run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth:
I think it’s just gravity doing its work – and I want to lift things up a bit.
David wanted subtle results that would give him an overall fresher appearance without obvious changes.
The Treatment Plan
To give David the refreshed appearance that he wanted, Dr Kaywaan would treat his mid face first, to address the nasolabial lines and the early loss of volume and skin laxity around his cheeks that was making them more noticeable.
Dr Kaywaan was particularly keen that David was happy with this first stage of the treatment. As a first-time patient, it was important that David felt comfortable with the subtle results achieved through his personalised and highly targeted treatment plan.
Mid face
Dr Kaywaan meticulously planned where to target hydrating, hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers to gently lift David’s cheeks.
By carefully placing the fillers in specific areas of David’s mid face, Dr Kaywaan was able to create a subtle lifting effect while softening the appearance of his nasolabial lines.
When David saw this initial part of his treatment, he was visibly reassured:
Very subtle.
Dr Kaywaan was delighted with David’s reaction:
It looks fresh – I’ve kept it really light.
Upper face
To complete the personalised treatment plan, Dr Kaywaan turned his attention to the expression lines on David’s upper face.
Dynamic wrinkles through facial expression can be particularly apparent between the eyebrows – known as ‘elevens’ or frown lines, and around the eyes – known as laughter lines.
Botox treatment gently relaxes the muscles that cause these lines. The result is smoother looking skin and an overall refreshed appearance.
The Results
Through expert use of hydrating and lifting dermal fillers, and highly targeted botox injections, Dr Kaywaan has achieved a subtly rejuvenated and fresher appearance for David.
His cheeks have been gently supported and lifted, helping to soften the appearance of his nasolabial lines. The skin on his forehead and around his eyes also appears smoother and fresher following treatment.
David is clearly very happy with the results:
Wow – very impressive.
The feeling
As with any injectable treatment, David may experience some temporary swelling or tenderness following treatment. These typically settle as the treated areas recover and the final results continue to develop.
For David, the most important part of the treatment was not about looking dramatically different. It was about feeling fresher and more confident, whilst still looking completely like himself.
Dr Kaywaan was equally pleased with the outcome:
In two to three weeks it should be looking very subtle, very natural – and just more ‘yourself’.
