Lower face tox is one of the most underrated ways to refine the face 💉

We’re rebalancing muscle movement to soften tension, lift subtly and restore harmony.

✨ Mentalis (chin): smooths dimpling + puckering
✨ DAO: lifts a downturned mouth
✨ Platysma: refines the jawline + improves definition

The difference?
A softer, more lifted lower face that still looks completely natural.

If you’ve been thinking about lower face tox but want results that don’t look obvious… book a consultation with Dr Carmen.

They said 0.7ml wouldn’t make a difference…

…but the right placement always does 💋

This is your reminder that lip filler isn’t about volume, but about structure, balance and precision.

✨ Subtle hydration
✨ Restored symmetry
✨ Soft definition (without the “overdone” look)

Most people think ageing starts with “wrinkles”…

It doesn’t.

It starts with structural changes like shifts in volume, fat pads, skin quality and muscle activity that change how your face holds itself.

These are the areas we see it first:

• Cheeks → loss of support = everything starts to descend
• Temples → hollowing = tired, less lifted eyes
• Nasolabial folds → deeper shadows break facial harmony
• Perioral lines → loss of definition around the lips
• Jawline/jowls → heaviness replaces sharp contour

This is why treating one area in isolation rarely gives the best result.

At Glow Works, we take a full-face approach - restoring balance.

Everything you need to know about Microneedling 💉

POV: you’re in the DMs of an aesthetic doctor 💌

microneedling doesn’t end when the treatment does… ❌

your results depend on what you do after

your skin is temporarily more permeable and sensitive, meaning irritation, infection or pigmentation risk is higher if aftercare is ignored.

first 24 hours:
– no makeup
– no sweating / gym / saunas
– no touching your face unnecessarily
– avoid heat (hot showers, steam)

first 48–72 hours:
– avoid active ingredients (retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, vitamin C)
– no exfoliation
– keep skincare simple: gentle cleanser + hydrating serum + barrier repair moisturiser

SPF is critical
UV exposure post-treatment increases the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)
→ broad-spectrum SPF 30–50 daily is non-negotiable

avoid for up to 5–7 days:
– sunbeds / direct sun exposure
– swimming pools (chlorine)
– fake tan or harsh body/face treatments

what to expect:
– redness (similar to mild sunburn) for 24–48h
– slight dryness or flaking
– skin may feel tighter before it looks smoother

why this matters:

microneedling works by creating controlled micro-injury to stimulate collagen production

→ inflammation is part of the process, but excess irritation can delay healing and affect results

good aftercare = better collagen response = better skin

don’t spend money on treatments just to cancel out the results at home

This is exactly why we take before & after pictures 📸

say it with me… 📢

aesthetic treatments + skincare = results

not one without the other.

polynucleotides and skin boosters improve skin quality but they don’t replace your routine 🧬

no SPF = no long-term results 🌞

microneedling is a course, not a one-off ✨

if people can see your filler, it’s not good filler 🤍

tear troughs are often not a tear trough problem it’s cheek support 👀

botox is best for lines that move, not ones already set 💉

and the biggest one…
your results are built mostly outside the clinic

sleep, SPF, skincare, lifestyle

that’s the real foundation

save this before your next appointment 🤍
