I woke up like this 💯💫 Since my last post, people have been asking me why I got fillers. Swipe to see the before and after photos and you'll see what I mean by having a "runner face" (sorry runners 🏃♂️ 🏃♀️) I'm in my 30s so there comes a point in life you have to make a choice, pile on a few kg and you may not have a figure to show off in biking shorts, but you also won't have a face like a prune. A bit of fat on the face helps to pad it out a bit and keep lines and wrinkles at bay. My cheeks have been looking hollow recently and the effect made me sad when I took photos 😔 I've had full and chubby cheeks for the longest time so I miss them...
Everyone's skin loses volume and elasticity as you grow older but people like us who work out a lot pull and stretch our skin more so eventually, it's going to take its toll.
Giving up my daily workout isn't an option so I signed up for @sinclairpharma_apac Ellanse, a new derma filler which is made from a bio-absorbable collagen stimulator. This means it provides both instant and gradual results. I saw increased volume immediately (almost 2 weeks after treatment) but the volumisation and improved skin quality continue to develop over a 3 month period.
The other bonus is that Ellansé can be placed at different depth levels within the sub-dermal layers of the skin which makes it very versatile. It can be used for facial line improvement, to fill and correct wrinkles and folds, as well as volumising, contouring and sculpting the face.
All this may sound too good to be true, except that I am sitting here now, gazing at the results and they really are good. @dr.isaac.wong has put the chub back into my cheeks again! It’s subtle – but I look healthier, younger – and more cheerful. And I feel it, too.
