Spooky myths about treatments and skincare

Spooky season has arrived, and there’s nothing scarier than these myths about aesthetic treatments and skincare!

Don’t let any of this trick you though – with Dermoperfection’s expert clinicians, we can treat you to a bespoke skin care plan based on your skin concerns and goals!

Here are some of the most common myths debunked:

Anti-wrinkle injections will leave you with a frozen face

We’ve all seen the “surgery gone wrong” articles with celebrities who have a “frozen face” – but our clinicians ensure anti-wrinkle injection results are natural and still allow for expression. We perfectly place your injection where lines and wrinkles have formed, for effortlessly anti-ageing effects. 

Or I will be left with a trout pout after lip fillers

Trusted clinicians would never inject too much into your lips – using leading brands Juvederm and Aliaxin, we typically inject 0.5-1ml of filler per session. We can safely add more volume in a top-up session, ensuring natural but noticeable results.

I’ll look older after treatments wear off

Don’t let this spook you off getting aesthetic treatments – in fact, after treatments like anti-wrinkle injections are repeated, there is less need to reapply to relax the muscle, and fine lines and wrinkles look better than their initial state after it has worn off. 

Aesthetic treatments are only for people of a certain age

We welcome a huge range of ages to our Birmingham skin clinic, from people looking to prevent future fine lines and wrinkles, to those who want to turn back the hands of time. Plus, aesthetic treatments aren’t only for anti-ageing – they work for acne, hyperpigmentation, scarring and general skin rejuvenation!

Surgery is the only option for meaningful results

The age of non-surgical treatments really is here, and Dermoperfection are specialists in them! None of our most popular options, including Profhilo, dermal fillers, INTRAcel Pro and ULTRAcel Q+, involve surgery, but they all offer both instant and long-lasting rejuvenation!

I have to pick only one treatment for my skin

With your bespoke treatment plan created by our expert clinicians, we may combine more than one treatment to give optimal results! However, our treatments are amazing standalone too. 

Aesthetic treatments are only for women

We welcome patients of all genders to our clinic! Some popular treatments for men are dermal fillers, for sculpting the chin and jawline, DiamondGlow to remove dirt and debris, unlocking healthy, glowing skin, and Microneedling, tackling concerns from hyperpigmentation to hair loss. 

If I can get the same treatment for cheaper then I should

Buy cheap, buy twice definitely applies to treatments! If you choose the cheapest option, you put yourself at risk of being with an untrained provider, with less trusted or even unsafe treatment brands that you’ll spend more money on correcting. 

Invest in the best with Dermoperfection’s team, who have 10 years of experience and have performed over 25,000 treatments, and use only the most trusted, award-winning treatment brands!

Proper skincare is a waste of money 

If you want to see meaningful results from your skincare routine, we recommend Obagi Medical and PCA Skin, the skincare brands we’re ambassadors for at Dermoperfection! Their products have higher levels of active ingredients and are designed for maximum penetration. They are also designed for more specific skin types and concerns compared to over-the-counter products.
