A new approach to face lifting
F
acial fillers have been used
for many years to help restore
a youthful look. Their great
advantage over surgical face lifting is
that fillers restore volume in the face
which is a key feature in the perception
of youthfulness. The latest advance in
treatment of facial ageing with fillers

there is very little or no
down-time and it is
suitable for a wide range
of ageing changes."
is the eight-point face lift which is the
newest treatment available at Orchard

eight distinct areas of the face, resulting
in lifting and smoothing of the cheeks,
upward turning of the mouth corners and
re-definition of the jawline.
The eight-point lift moves away from
the idea of treating wrinkles directly
but addresses the underlying cause of
ageing which is facial volume loss and
the downward shift of facial fat creating a
heavy appearance of the lower face.
The eight-point lift with Juvederm
fillers has three distinct advantages over
surgical face lift; the result is natural,
there is very little or no down-time and
it is suitable for a wide range of ageing
changes. The eight points have been
chosen as they are the points on the face
which will anchor and bring support to
the face. Creating structure and volume
in one area of the face will lead to an
improvement in another adjacent part.
An essential component of the
treatment is the use of the excellent

the patient wants, a
completely natural
looking result."
Juvederm range of fillers which are
malleable and smooth giving the most
natural results.
Having used fillers in her practice for
10 years Dr Rhatigan has seen the many
advances in their usefulness in treating
facial ageing. However the eight-point
face lift is by far the most exciting new
technique because it delivers just what
the patient wants, a completely natural
looking result.
