This lovely client actually volunteered to be my model back in May when I attended Melanie Collins’ Revanesse Masterclass. I’ve admired Melanie’s work for a long time, and I’m a huge fan of the Revanesse range, so it was a fantastic opportunity to continue refining my techniques with one of the UK’s leading trainers.
This was also my client’s very first aesthetic treatment, so it was really important to take a conservative, thoughtful approach. Rather than trying to chase individual lines or make dramatic changes, we focused on restoring the support that had naturally been lost over time.
We restored volume to the deep medial cheek fat pads and lateral cheeks to recreate support through the midface. We treated the preauricular and buccal regions with Revanesse Contour to improve structural support in the lower face, and used Revanesse Ultra in the perifossa and nasolabial regions for subtle softening and blending.
Throughout the treatment I used both a needle and a cannula. They’re simply different tools for different jobs. A needle allows incredibly precise placement, particularly onto bone or within specific fat compartments, whereas a blunt-tipped cannula lets me distribute filler smoothly across larger areas through a single entry point, often with less tissue trauma and bruising. Knowing when to use each is just as important as choosing the right product.
My approach is always about facial balancing, not changing the way someone looks. The aim is to restore structure, support the natural anatomy and create results that are elegant, subtle and age-appropriate.
She’s healing beautifully. Given the degree of volume loss, we may choose to do a second session once everything has settled. I’d always rather build a result gradually than over-treat in a single appointment, because natural results are always the goal
