Volumising Treatments
One of the unavoidable signs of ageing is the loss of volume in our face creating lines, folds and wrinkles, but at Cosmetic Image Clinics we can provide consultations for the treatment of submental fat loss.
Volumisation treatments can replace the volume in areas where these fat pads may have weakened over time, restoring lost volume and improving the appearance of the skin.
