One of the most common signs of facial ageing is caused by loss of volume, particularly around the jowl and cheek areas. This volume loss often leads to skin sagging, which expedites the development of the nasolabial fold (nasolabial lines are the lines from the nose to the corner of the mouth), and also the marionette lines (which are the lines from the corners of the mouth to the chin).
Historically, patients would undergo surgical facelifts, but with the advancement and new techniques developed with dermal fillers and Botox, this impressive treatment is commonly regarded as the best non-surgical facelift.
A hugely popular treatment, the 8 Point Facelift (commonly known as the Non-Surgical Facelift or Liquid Facelift), is a fantastic alternative to surgery. It can dramatically improve the appearance of premature ageing on the face, particularly around the cheek and eye areas, where the skin can droop and look hollow.
At Omniya Clinic, we combine both dermal fillers and Botox anti wrinkle injections to gently lift and re-contour the face, reducing nose-mouth lines, marionette lines, the appearance of jowls, dark shadows and hollow cheeks.
An 8-point facelift is a non-surgical facelift that uses dermal fillers and Botox. Compared to a traditional facelift, there is much less recovery time, and the procedure is painless. It’s a technique that’s been perfected at Omniya Clinic and takes a comprehensive ‘whole face’ approach.
When applied, the procedure lifts, restores volume and structures the face. This reduces wrinkles, revitalises the skin and contributes to a youthful appearance.
Facial ageing is inevitable and arises due to genetics and the natural ageing process. Many of the patients at Omniya Clinic want to age gracefully, appearing to look younger than their biological age. As we age, our skin tends to lose its elasticity and begins to sag due to the loss in volume.
There are surgical and non-surgical procedures which are available to correct sagging skin. Each comes with its own pros and cons, which must be thoroughly discussed during a consultation.

Essentially, yes to all (liquid facelift, 8-point facelift and non surgical facelift), although different doctors may call them different things, and have slightly different treatment protocols, the aim is the same;
There are a vast number of dermal filler brands available, and within each of these brands, a multitude of different product types. At Omniya Clinic, we only work with the most reputable brands, Allergan (Juvederm) and Teoxane (Teosyal). The specific product type will be determined based on your consultation and treatment area.
Absolutely, yes. This is one of the key benefits of the liquid facelift, and why it is regarded as one of the best non surgical facelift in London. Additional dermal filler injections can be carried out to replenish the areas, or to provide a more fuller effect as the previous treatment’s results start to wear off. The temporary nature of this treatment means that each time you can modify the treatment based on your requirements as the ageing process continues.
The results will be immediately noticeable, but full results will be after 10 days. You must allow for swelling to subside before seeing the effective, natural looking results.
There is no defined answer for this, as it is very much on a case by case basis, depending on the individual. It is when you feel that your skin is lax and sagging, and when you feel that you would benefit from the treatment. Only you should decide when it concerns you to do the treatment.
As with all treatments, there are pros and cons to each, however, some of the benefits of the Liquid Facelift are:
You will be given aftercare information, which will advise that you avoid strenuous exercise, spa/sauna, drinking alcohol for 24-48 hours
The price of the treatment is from £750. This is determined by a number of factors, including the severity of the ageing and therefore the amount of dermal filler required to treat your concerns, and subject to a consultation with your doctor.
