Book Your Treatments Before Christmas and New Year!

Claire Lavery • November 11, 2024

As the holiday season draws near, there's no better time to start thinking about how you want to look and feel for those festive gatherings and special moments with friends and family. Whether you’re preparing for a family get-together, a New Year’s Eve party, or simply want to look your best for the winter season, booking your aesthetic treatments in advance is the key to getting the best results in time for the celebrations!

Why Book Now?


Aesthetic and skin treatments, whether they’re injectables like anti-wrinkle or dermal fillers, skin rejuvenation, or regenerative medicine, take time to show their full effect. Most treatments don’t produce immediate results; instead, they require a few days, or even a few weeks, to fully settle into your skin and reveal their benefits. For instance, with anti-wrinkle we recommend a follow up after two weeks, while dermal fillers often need a few days for the swelling to subside and the final result to emerge.


If you’re hoping to have your results ready for a specific event — say, a Christmas party or New Year’s Eve celebration — planning ahead will ensure you look your best without any last-minute stress. After all, no one wants to be worried about visible swelling or redness on the day of an event, which is why we recommend scheduling your appointment at least 2–3 weeks in advance (also taking into consideration clinic closure over the Christmas period!).


Allow Time for Aftercare


In addition to giving the treatments time to take effect, scheduling your appointment in advance of the festive period also allows you to follow through on any aftercare instructions we provide. Many aesthetic treatments may involve minor swelling, bruising, or redness immediately following the procedure. While these side effects usually subside within a few days, giving yourself plenty of time before your social events means you won't feel rushed or self-conscious as your skin heals and settles.


The Importance of Professional Care


Choosing the right clinic and skilled professionals for your aesthetic treatments is critical to achieving the best results. A trusted clinic will not only tailor the treatment to your unique needs and goals, but also provide clear guidance on post-treatment care and follow-up. They’ll ensure that you leave feeling confident and satisfied with the results.


So, whether you’re looking to refresh your look with anti-wrinkle treatment, restore volume with dermal fillers, or rejuvenate your skin with regenerative skin treatments, now is the perfect time to plan ahead for the festive season. Booking early allows you to enjoy the process with peace of mind and achieve results that will make you feel your absolute best as you ring in the New Year.


Important Clinic Closure Dates


Please note that our clinic will be closed for the holiday season from December 19th through January 3rd. We encourage you to book your treatments as soon as possible to avoid missing out on your desired appointment time. Our team is happy to help you plan and schedule your treatment well in advance, ensuring you're ready to shine for Christmas and New Year’s.


Don’t wait — treat yourself to a little holiday glow and book your aesthetic treatment today!

When people hear the phrase "dissolving filler," they often assume something has gone wrong. While there are certainly cases where poorly placed or excessive filler needs to be corrected - often from treatments performed by other practitioners - the truth is that dissolving filler is not always a negative step. In many cases, it is simply part of a natural and thoughtful approach to maintaining your best results over time. Why Would We Dissolve Filler? Filler is not permanent, and for good reason. Products used several years ago may no longer be suitable for your current skin quality, facial structure, or aesthetic goals. Over time, hyaluronic acid fillers can migrate subtly from their original placement, leading to less defined contours or a look that no longer complements your face. In addition, the quality and technology of dermal fillers have significantly improved over the years. Modern fillers offer better integration with the tissues, longer-lasting but more natural results, and more predictable behaviour in the skin. If you were treated several years ago, it’s possible the product used at that time may no longer be ideal — even if the work was expertly done. Finally, as we age, the structure of the face changes. We naturally lose bone density, fat pads shift, and skin elasticity reduces. A filler placement that once looked perfect can start to look less harmonious as your facial anatomy evolves. Dissolving old filler allows us to work with the face as it is now, creating a more natural and flattering result. The Benefits of Dissolving Filler Choosing to dissolve filler can be empowering! It offers a "clean slate" that allows for a more strategic, bespoke treatment plan. Rather than layering new filler on top of old, migrated product, we can start fresh, carefully rebuilding volume, contour, and balance where it is really needed. Key benefits include: Restoring natural facial harmony Removing product that has migrated or created heaviness Allowing for better, more precise re-treatment Adjusting to your current facial structure and skin quality Using newer, more advanced filler technologies for optimal results How Filler Dissolving Works At Claire Lavery Aesthetics, we use a enzyme called hyaluronidase to break down hyaluronic acid-based fillers. The process is safe, quick, and targeted, ensuring that only the undesired filler is affected while leaving your natural tissues unharmed. After dissolving, we typically recommend allowing the area to settle for a few weeks before considering further treatments, giving your skin time to fully recover. A Thoughtful, Expert-Led Approach Filler dissolving is never rushed and is always tailored to your individual needs and goals. Whether it’s correcting previous work, refreshing your look after years of gradual migration, or updating your aesthetic plan to reflect the latest techniques and products, dissolving is simply part of maintaining beautiful, natural results over time. If you feel your filler is no longer enhancing your appearance - or you simply want a professional opinion - we are here to guide you through the process safely and expertly. Book a consultation today to find out whether dissolving and re-treating could be the next positive step in your aesthetic journey.

Injectable treatments have revolutionised the aesthetics industry, offering a way to enhance natural beauty, restore volume, and soften signs of ageing. However, one of the biggest misconceptions surrounding injectables is that they always result in an overfilled or unnatural look. In reality, when performed by skilled practitioners using the right techniques, injectables can achieve subtle, balanced results that enhance rather than alter a person’s appearance.

The start of a new year is the perfect time to reassess your habits and set intentions for the months ahead. While many focus on fitness goals or career aspirations, one resolution that often goes overlooked is the commitment to a consistent skincare routine. Your skin is your largest organ and the first line of defense against environmental stressors. Building a solid at-home skincare routine is not only key to maintaining healthy skin but also serves as the foundation for maximising the results of in-clinic skin and injectable treatments.
