Non-Surgical
NON-SURGICAL
Non-Surgical treatments are less invasive plastic surgical alternatives to rejuvenate and counter the effects of aging. The most common methods used are injectables and chemical peels which seek to achieve desired results with minimal downtime and minimal discomfort.
Natural ageing causes loss of volume on the face, resulting in droopy folds below the eyes, next to the nose and around the mouth and jaw. The other effects of aging include wrinkling, skin tags and alterations in skin pigmentation. Aesthetic non-surgical treatments give patients the option of having immediate youthful results without undergoing surgery, thus making it very popular.
Skin Treatments
Facial fillers are “gel-like substances” injected under the skin to replace lost volume, fill up defects (dents, folds, and wrinkles), enhance facial features such as lips.
The treatment is performed in Dr Ngwenya’s office procedure room with the patient awake. Mild discomfort may be expected, however it is often short-lived, with results often seen immediately.
Non-Fillers generally last 9 -12 months, and would thus require topping up thereafter. The advantage of dermal fillers is its ability to add volume to skin, thus assisting to restore a “natural” youthful appearance in targeted areas such as the temples, cheeks, under eyes, jawline, mouth and chin region.
During the consultation with Dr Ngwenya, the patient’s specific requirements, target areas and goals are discussed in detail before dermal fillers are applied.
Pricing varies depending on available budget and to be discussed in Consultation with Dr Ngwenya.
Botulinum toxin type A, better known as BOTOXR, is one of the most popular and effective anti-ageing treatment.

The treatment is performed in Dr Ngwenya’s office procedure room with the patient awake, where tiny amounts of Botulinum toxin are injected into target areas.

Mild discomfort is expected during the procedure, with transient bruising experienced by some shortly after the procedure.
Results are often expected three days after injection and last for an average of 3 – 6 months.
