Volume Enhancement (Fillers)
Smoothing wrinkles with hyaluronic acid
Nearly all cosmetic companies now offer anti-wrinkle creams containing hyaluronic acid. Their effect in reducing wrinkles is minimal, since they are only externally applied to the skin. Visibly effective results can, in contrast, be achieved with dermal fillers (fillers), which introduce a special soft, yet durable hyaluron gel directly into the skin’s collagen. At DERMATOLOGIE des WESTENS, we use fillers like Sculptra® and Radiesse®, which our specialists inject under the skin with an ultrafine needle to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production. This effectively fills facial lines and naturally enhances volume.
Line fillers simulate the lifting effect provided by natural hyaluronic acid and give your skin resilience and vitality. Depending on the product used and the extent of the treatment, the effect lasts for six to eighteen months.
Primary areas of application are the nasolabial folds (which run from the nasal wing to the corner of the mouth), the frown lines at the bridge of the nose and even the vertical pleating around the lip area (smoker’s lines), the marionette lines (from the corner of the mouth to the jaw line) and crow’s feet (the fine wrinkles around the eyes).
At DERMATOLOGIE des WESTENS you will be treated exclusively with certified products from leading global manufacturers: Restylane® (Galderma), Teosyal R (Teoxane), Belotero® (Merz), Saypha® (Croma) and Juvederm® (Allergan).
Following an individual in-depth consultation that also considers your personal concerns, wishes and the condition and texture of your skin, we will determine which products are most beneficial for you.
Microneedling
Microneedling
Treatment of acne scars, stretch marks and ageing skin
Microneedling (collagen induction therapy) helps to maintain youthful, fresh-looking skin and significantly improve existing irregularities in the complexion. The specially formed microneedles penetrate the skin and stimulate the skin’s regeneration from deep within the collagen tissue.
Medical microneedling:
This treatment is performed in the practice under local anaesthesia with the objective of treating visible signs of skin ageing, stretch marks and acne scars.
Cosmetic microneedling:
With the use of a needle roller suited for home-based application, the top layer of the skin is limbered. This enables, for example, hyaluronic acid serum to deeply infiltrate the skin. The treatment does not require pain relief.
Optimal treatment results are achieved by the combination of medical and subsequent cosmetic microneedling along with supplementary treatments like mesotherapy, chemical peelings and treatment with filler.
An improvement can usually be seen after the first treatment. Treatment intervals of 6-8 weeks are recommended.

Skin Booster
SKINBOOSTER FOR
IMPROVED SKIN QUALITY
The moisture-binding capacity of our skin decreases with age. The skin can appear rough and dull and lose its vitality due to failing resiliency. A series of treatments with specially formulated hyaluronic acid can help restore and sustainably maintain skin texture that is nurtured and dewy. The so-called Skin Booster contains a stabilised hyaluronic acid formula that is injected over an extensive area into the deepest layers of the skin. The stabilised formula consequently serves as a moisture-retaining depot for the structure of the skin. In contrast to the superficial application of facial creams, this provides the skin with optimal care.
The unique and highly effective Restylane Skin Booster concept not only reduces signs of premature skin ageing, it also significantly improves the structure of mature skin.
The treatment with Restylane Skin Booster has an extensive skin-hydrating effect that lasts up to one year. This differentiates the treatment from that of hyaluron fillers, which are predominantly suited to fill lines and enhance volume.
The result of the treatment is skin with maximum resilience, structure, firmness and hydration. It supplies the deeper skin layers with sufficient moisture. This consequently leads to radiant-looking skin and has a positive effect on skin quality.
Restylane Skin Booster provides a wide range of treatment options for young or mature skin – they are suited for face, neck, décolleté, knees, elbows and hands. The structure-improving Skin Booster can also benefit very dry or UV-damaged skin.
In order to achieve the best possible results, the application of Skin Booster can even be combined with other therapies like, for example, laser or hyaluronic acid fillers. The effectiveness and the excellent aesthetic results of treatments using Restylane Skin Booster have been documented in extensive clinical studies.
The full therapeutic effect of Restylane Skin Booster is achieved in a step-by-step process that requires several treatment sessions.
The Restoration Phase
The restoration phase should begin with three restoration treatments in intervals of two to four weeks. Effects of Restylane Skin Booster can usually be seen directly after the first treatment, with full results achieved only after two to three restoration treatments.
The Touch-Up
For long-lasting results after improved skin quality is achieved in the restoration phase, and according to the type of treatment and condition of the skin, we recommend about two touch-up treatments per year.

Eyelid lift
Eyelid lift
Correction of droopy eyelids and bags beneath the eyes
The eyes are a deciding factor about whether we consider a face to be youthful and vibrant. Wrinkles, droopy eyelids or puffy bags spoil this impression. We remedy this problem by using the most innovative techniques to remove excess skin and fatty tissue. An eyelid lift restores elasticity to the skin and musculature of the eyelid. Your face has a pleasant, youthful look and the facial structure is more defined. The shape of your eyes and their individual expression are maintained.
The procedure is done as an outpatient treatment, either with local anaesthetic or twilight sleep sedation and patients experience this as relatively painless. Aftereffects, like swelling and discolouring as a result of bruising in the areas below the eye and near the cheek are possible, but subside after two weeks at the latest. You can resume your normal social activities after a brief period and have a positive aura with eyes that sparkle and smile.
