New Aspect Appearance Medicine With Lauren

This is something I think about all the time.

People wait until their skin is loose.
Until the jawline has softened.
Until the neck has become crepey.
Until wrinkles are deeply etched.

Then they ask how to get their collagen back.

The problem is by that stage, you're trying to rebuild a house that's already started falling down.

Collagen production begins slowing in our mid-20s. From around the age of 30, we lose approximately 1% of our collagen every year. Menopause can accelerate this dramatically, with women losing up to 30% of their skin collagen in the first five years.

So why the heck are we waiting?

We service our cars before they break down.
We brush our teeth before they fall out.
We exercise to prevent disease.

Yet when it comes to our skin, so many people wait until they're trying to reverse years of collagen loss.

Prevention is always easier and can often be more affordable than correction.

Many people won't hesitate to spend:
• $100 on takeaways every week.
• Hundreds on dinners out.
• Thousands on designer handbags.
• Money on alcohol, clothes, or the latest gadgets.

Yet investing in the one thing you wear every single day, but your face is often seen as a luxury.

If your appearance genuinely isn't important to you, that's completely okay. But if looking after your skin and ageing well matters to you, why wait?

Every year you delay is another year of collagen loss that becomes harder to replace.

You don't need to start with filler.

Start by investing in your skin.

✨ SPF every day.
✨ Medical-grade skincare.
✨ Skin boosters.
✨ HIFU.
✨ RF Microneedling.
✨ Biostimulators.

These treatments aren't just about looking better today. They're about giving your future self healthier, stronger skin.

Think of collagen like a retirement fund.
The earlier you start investing, the greater the return over time.

Your face is with you for life. It deserves the same investment you so easily make in everything else.

Strong. Masculine. Defined.

This already very handsome young man came to me with a very clear goal: he wanted a stronger, wider, more masculine jawline with slightly squarer chin. He brought in reference photos of the look he was aiming for and over 2 sessions we achieved exactly what he asked.

The focus was on:
• Adding width to create a stronger masculine frame.
• Enhancing and widening the jawline from back to front for a more powerful profile.
• Squaring the chin while maintaining natural proportions and balance.
• Treating the space beside the nose (piriform) to soften shadowing, improve support and subtly reduce nasal flare, creating the appearance of a slightly more refined nose without treating the nose itself.

Male facial balancing is completely different to female facial balancing. It's about strategically placing structure where nature intended, creating strength, definition and balance while respecting masculine anatomy.

Every face is different, and every treatment plan is customised to the individual's goals and facial structure.

I love creating these transformations because the changes are so powerful without looking overdone. He walked away with exactly what he envisioned and that's always the goal.

Just over 7ml of product was used to create this beautiful dramatic result.

I feel rich, not because of what I own, but because of what I get to do every single day.

I get to combine my creativity, my passion, and my purpose into a career that allows me to help people feel like the very best version of themselves. There is something incredibly special about seeing someone's confidence return. Watching them admire their reflection, stand a little taller, or leave feeling more confident than when they walked in 🖤🖤🖤

Those moments remind me why I do this. I never ever take it for granted that people trust me with their faces. It's a privilege, and one I carry with so much gratitude.

This career has given me so much more than a business. It's given me purpose, connection, and the opportunity to make a real difference in people's lives.

So yes I am incredibly rich # # #

I don't believe in convincing or selling anyone on aesthetic treatments.

My role isn't to talk you into having something done, it's to guide you. My role is to assess your unique anatomy, understand your concerns and goals, educate you on your options, and create a treatment plan that will give you the best possible outcome.

From there, the decision is always yours.

Your face. Your budget. Your timeline.

There is never any pressure from me, only honest advice and recommendations based on what I genuinely believe will achieve the results you're looking for.

Sometimes that means treatment today. Sometimes it means waiting, staging treatments over time, or even deciding that no treatment is the right decision.

If you're looking for a results-driven injector who values natural outcomes, facial harmony, and honest guidance over sales, I'd love to help you on your journey.

A beautiful example of what subtle lip enhancement can achieve. 🤍

This wasn't about creating big lips, this was about refining what she already had. This gorgeous girl had a beautiful natural shape which we just enhanced & refined while keeing things natural.

Here we have focused on:

* Restoring hydration
* Creating soft definition
* Improving balance and symmetry
* Supporting the lip structure
* Natural, fresh and beautiful results

Every set of lips is unique, which is why I tailor every treatment to your natural anatomy and goals. Sometimes achieving the perfect result is a journey completed over more than one appointment and that's okay. Beautiful, natural lips are worth taking the time to create.

Subtle. Refined. Hydrated. Natural. Beautiful.

A lot of people think aging starts in the upper face. And yes, forehead & frown lines are often the first things people notice but they usually aren't what makes someone look grump, sad or older than they really are. One of the biggest changes actually happens in the lower face.

As we age, certain muscles become stronger and start pulling the face downward. At the same time, we gradually lose collagen, bone support and facial fat. The result is that the jawline softens, jowls begin to form, marionette lines become more noticeable, the corners of the mouth can turn down, and the face can start to look heavier or less supported.

The good news is we can treat these changes in a number of ways.

*Anti-wrinkle injections can relax the muscles responsible for pulling the lower face down, allowing the opposing lifting muscles to work more effectively.

* HIFU and RF Microneedling stimulate your body's own collagen production to tighten and strengthen the skin, improving laxity and definition over time.

* Biostimulators encourage your skin to rebuild collagen and elastin, restoring firmness and improving skin quality.

* Strategically placed dermal filler can replace lost structural support where it's actually needed, helping to rebalance the face rather than simply adding volume.

The secret isn't just only chasing every line or wrinkle it's understanding why your face has changed and choosing the right combination of treatments to address the underlying cause.

Natural results come from treating the face as a whole, not just one area. 🤍

There really is no greater compliment than having a new client travel from another town to see you. ❤️

This beautiful soul made the trip from Masterton for her lip enhancement, and I genuinely always feel so privileged when people travel a long way to see me.

She had a tricky M-shaped lip, which requires a thoughtful, tailored approach. We need to add volume to the lateral tubercles that have a volume deficit but we also need to be careful not to add too much when the lip is naturally more projected.

I'm so happy with her result. We maintained her natural beauty while improving hydration, support and shape, giving her a soft, beautiful enhancement that suits her perfectly.

Thank you for putting your trust in me. It truly means the world when clients travel the extra distance to see me. 🖤🖤🖤

Note: swelling will subside over the next few days.

One of the biggest misconceptions about lip filler is that every lip can achieve the same result in a single appointment. In reality lip filler isn't always that straightforward.

Every set of lips has different anatomy, tissue quality, elasticity, muscle strength and capacity. My treatment plan is always tailored to what your lips can safely and naturally achieve.

For lips that have lost volume through ageing or even sometimes just one's natural anatomy, there can often be "empty spaces" within the lip tissue. Rather than chasing size straight away, we first restore hydration and structural support. Once the tissue is better supported, we can reassess and add volume at a later appointment if needed.

For naturally very small or tight lips, patience is key. Trying to force too much filler into a lip that has very little capacity can create migration, lumps, distortion and an unnatural shape. Building volume gradually over multiple sessions allows the tissue to stretch and adapt, producing a far more beautiful long-term result.

Some lips have very soft, stretchy tissue and can accommodate volume more easily, while others are dense, firm or fibrous and simply have less room. Some lips are naturally asymmetrical, have a strong muscle pull, or have previous filler that may need disolving. Others have significant dehydration where the first treatment is less about making the lips bigger and more about improving the quality of the tissue itself.

As an injector, my job isn't to see how much filler I can place. It's to understand your anatomy, respect your tissue and create lips that are balanced, beautiful and in harmony with your face.

This is why comparing your lips to someone else's isn't helpful. What works beautifully for one person may be completely inappropriate for another.

I am a firm believer in hydration first, support second & volume last.

My gorgeous client had previous lip filler from another injector, but it had been around 2 years since her last treatment. Today was all about restoring volume, refining her shape and hydration!

One thing I say is that the right lips depend on the face they're sitting on. Some women can carry a fuller, more glamorous lip because their facial features are stronger and beautifully balanced to support it. Others suit a softer, more understated enhancement.

This gorgeous client absolutely rocks a fuller lip, and I couldn't love this result more. Balanced, feminine, and perfectly suited to her. I absolutely love this result. She wears a fuller lip effortlessly, and it complements her features perfectly.

Note: Some swelling evident. This will subside over the next few days.
