Beauty comes in many forms. They share a common thread: a perceptual reality whereby our senses are pleasurably experienced in a peculiar and surprising way.
The philosophy and work behind the attainment of physical beauty is not as vain a pursuit as on first glance it may appear.
Beauty is linked with success, happiness and fulfillment in life.
Physical beauty imbues confidence on oneself, which in turn generates freedom. As long as you are not obsessive about it.
Some would even argue that beauty when handled in this way generates more beauty.
The investment in taking care of the aesthetic side of life actually takes you outside of the ego by connecting more readily on social and transpersonal levels.
Facial aesthetics is the science and art of beautification based on principles that are less founded on socialization than on the more ancestro-genetic influences at play.
Modern facial aesthetic practice involves a multi-disciplinary approach to the foundation of anti-ageing, pure aesthetics, and regenerative techniques to provide to the patient a balanced and tailored programme.
In this case the modalities of injectable treatments, minimally invasive suture techniques, and resurfacing and regenerative strategies combined with good quality sun protection are all combined to give a more total package.
Patients that come for treatment are from the ages of approximately 20 years to 70 years and older. The younger age groups are not too concerned about aging effects - what they’re coming for is beauty enhancements - fuller lips, cheekbones and even some brow region softening in some cases.
Rejuvenation is best approached with a holistic game plan.
I was a bit nervous going in, but Dr Filipe was so patient and explained everything to me in detail and put me totally at ease. He's very gentle, has a light hand and treats you with the utmost care. Gorgeous place. Very limited staff but that doesn't take away from the quality of treatment. Great value for money.
The doctor is an amazing and skilled aesthetic practitioner. The lovely results of my treatment for wrinkles on very deep frown lines and crows feet were apparent after two days. I would highly recommend the doctor. The clinic is set in a beautiful, relaxing and calming space. Soft classic music, friendly greetings. Houghton Medic Spa also stock the fabulous SkinCeuticals (advanced scientific skincare products) which are without a doubt the best product I have ever used.
I had an AMAZING experience at the Houghton Medi Spa! I got my cheeks filled, I wanted my face to look more healthy and natural.The doctor definetly did that for me! He was helpful,professional and kind, extremely informative about the procedure. He really went out of his way to make me happy. He used fillers which are the best in the market nationally and internationally as (they have been in the market since 1996).The clinic is beautiful and has a very peaceful feeling. The music was perfect to help me relax.I would recommend the doctor to anyone! V .
