Yes it is temporary. It usually lasts around 3-4 months, but the exact duration depends on the person, lifestyle and the treatment area. You’ll need to wait at least 12 weeks between treatments. Over time, with repeated treatments, the lines may not return to their original, deep state as the skin improves. Combining treatments like microneedling or skin boosters can speed up the skin’s healing process to reverse lines significantly.
Treatment should not be painful due to the very fine needles and the quality product used to minimise discomfort.
No, they tackle the signs of ageing in different ways. Botox relaxes muscles to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. Dermal fillers add volume to areas that may have lost fullness. Our high quality filler brands are also made up of Hyaluronic Acid (HA).

At Klinikk, there is over 10 years medical and clinical experience which is monitored by the General Dental Council professional body to ensure continuous learning and development.

At Klinikk, the Clinic Director is a dentist, and all prescriptions and injections are carried out by Dr Julie. Our injectors are all medical professionals, registered with a governing body and fully insured ensuring you receive the best care possible.
Complications can be minor (like droopy eyelids or uneven filler) or more serious (like infections or blocked blood vessels VO). At Klinikk we are highly trained in both managing and preventing complications immediately.
Signs of VO include extreme pain immediately after a filler treatment, and the skin may appear pale or discoloured. If the skin doesn’t return to its normal colour within 3 seconds, contact your practitioner right away. You receive contact information immediately after your appointment in case of an emergency where the clinical director will ensure they are available 24/7.

Most treatments have little to no downtime. You may experience slight swelling or redness, but it usually goes away within a few hours to a few days and to ensure best results we’ll provide you with aftercare instructions.

Yes, combining treatments can enhance your results. During your consultation, we’ll recommend a combination of treatments tailored to your goals.
Skin boosters are treatments that hydrate and improve your skin from the inside out. They use hyaluronic acid to boost hydration, elasticity, and skin texture, giving you a healthy, radiant glow.
Polynucleotides are natural DNA fragments that help repair and regenerate skin. Known as the “salmon facial” they improve elasticity, hydration, and skin quality, making them great for anti-aging treatments as well as targeting problems like acne, pigmentation and rosacea.
A needle is a sharp, pointed instrument used to inject treatments directly into the skin. It’s great for precise areas but can risk bruising because of its sharp tip. A cannula is a blunt-tipped tube that moves through the skin to distribute treatments more gently. It’s often used for larger areas because it’s less likely to cause bruising and discomfort, making it a smoother option for certain treatments. In short, needles are used for precision, while cannulas are used to spread the treatment.
Microneedling is a treatment that uses tiny, fine needles to create small, controlled punctures in the skin. This stimulates the skin’s natural healing process, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin by as much as 400%, which helps improve skin texture and firmness. It’s great for reducing fine lines, acne scars, and overall skin tone, leaving you with smoother, more youthful-looking skin. The procedure is minimally invasive and typically has little downtime, with most people experiencing some redness for the rest of the day that looks like mild sunburn.
A chemical peel is a treatment that uses a special solution applied to the skin to remove the outer layers. This helps to exfoliate and improve the texture of your skin, making it look smoother and more radiant. Chemical peels can help with issues like fine lines, sun damage, acne, and uneven skin tone. The solution used can vary in strength, depending on the type of peel, with lighter peels requiring little downtime and deeper peels needing more recovery time. After a peel, your skin may be dry for a few days, but the results give smoother, rejuvenated skin.
