Non-Surgical Procedures

What are non-surgical procedures?

Non-surgical procedures are minimally invasive treatments designed to enhance appearance, restore balance, and improve skin quality without the need for surgery. These treatments focus on subtle, natural-looking results while allowing patients to maintain their daily routines with minimal interruption.


Non-surgical options are often used to address early signs of ageing, improve skin texture, restore lost volume, or support recovery after surgical procedures. They can be performed as standalone treatments or as part of a comprehensive aesthetic plan.

Who is the right candidate for non-surgical procedures?

Non-surgical procedures are suitable for individuals who prefer less invasive treatment options, are not ready for surgery, or wish to maintain the results of previous surgical procedures. They are also ideal for patients seeking gradual improvement with little to no downtime.

Candidates should be in good general health and have realistic expectations. A personalised consultation is essential to determine the most appropriate treatments based on individual goals, skin condition, and medical history.

Types of non-surgical procedures offered

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are used to restore lost volume, enhance facial contours, and soften the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Common treatment areas include the lips, cheeks, jawline, and under-eye region. Results are immediate, with gradual settling over time.

Botulinum toxin

Botulinum toxin (Botox®) is a neuromodulator that relaxes targeted facial muscles to reduce the appearance of fine lines and dynamic wrinkles. It is commonly used on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes. The treatment helps create a smoother, more refreshed appearance while maintaining natural facial movement.

Lymphatic Massage (Post-Liposuction)

Lymphatic massage is a specialised technique recommended after liposuction to support the body’s natural healing process. It helps reduce swelling, improve circulation, minimise fluid buildup, and enhance overall comfort during recovery.

What can you expect after non-surgical treatments?

Most non-surgical procedures involve little to no downtime. Mild redness, swelling, or tenderness may occur depending on the treatment but usually resolves quickly. Patients can typically return to normal activities shortly after their appointment.

Following aftercare instructions is important to maximise results and ensure proper healing.
