If skincare no longer gives you the appearance you want, the next step need not be more filler. In your forties, expression lines, volume changes and skin quality deserve separate attention. At ESTERA, discuss a plan with a clear priority that respects your features.
Choose by concern, not by birthday
- Botulinum toxin: For expression-related lines; the treatment area and dose need assessment.
- Hyaluronic acid fillers: For a defined volume or contour concern, not automatically after a particular birthday.
- Collagen stimulators: Discuss Radiesse, Lanluma or aesPlla where suitable, not as a universal substitute for surgery.
- MicroNeedling: A possible option for texture, selected scars and fine lines when suitable.
Your first priority
Distinguish expression lines from folds at rest, and volume loss from skin-quality concerns. Combining methods makes sense only when each has a clear purpose; more procedures do not automatically make a better plan.
How your plan takes shape
Bring details of previous procedures and products, health conditions, allergies and all medicines. The consultation sets a goal, likely outcome, visit plan and recovery needs. The order and spacing of different methods are individual. Assessment may also show that no procedure is needed now.
Skincare alongside treatment
Daily broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher and moisturising remain the foundation. After a procedure, follow its specific aftercare instructions. A changing pigmented lesion needs medical assessment before cosmetic treatment.
Recovery and safety
Redness, swelling, bruising and temporary tenderness can occur; risks vary by method. Fillers also carry rare serious vascular risks. Severe or unusual pain, pale or discoloured skin, or visual symptoms need urgent medical care. Tell us about pregnancy, breastfeeding, infections and medicines before choosing a procedure. Do not stop medication yourself.
Cost depends on your goal

Frequently asked questions
Is age alone a reason for treatment?
No. Your goals, examination, health and the likely benefits and risks matter more.
Can I come if I have never had an aesthetic procedure?
Yes. A consultation helps you understand the options and does not commit you to treatment.
Are results guaranteed?
No. Possibilities and limits are assessed individually; a natural appearance is a goal, not a guarantee.
