While facial aesthetics often take centre stage, the hands, chest, and neck are equally vulnerable to signs of ageing. Over time, collagen production naturally slows down and can start in the mid-to-late twenties. Sun exposure and environmental factors can also lead to fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin texture across the body.
Why Treat The Hands, Chest and Neck?
Our hands are imperative for daily tasks, from typing on a keyboard to eating, to even expressing ourselves. However, they are often overlooked when it comes to self-care. The neck and décolletage (chest) area also experience daily UV exposure and environmental stressors but are rarely protected or treated, going unnoticed until the damage or ageing has already taken place.
At STORY Clinics, we offer a solution not just to restore, but to also regenerate and target these concerns. The importance of treating not just the face, is why we introduced two biostimulatory injectables; Ellansé and Radiesse at our clinic.
What Are Injectable Body Treatments?
Body treatments such as Ellansé and Radiesse are non-surgical, collagen-stimulating treatments that target common concerns in areas like the neck, chest and hands. These biostimulatory fillers trigger your body’s natural collagen production, to improve the skin from within. Unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, Ellansé and Radiesse work deeper to regenerate, restore natural structure and support long-term firmness and volume.
Using these advanced fillers ensures we can safely and effectively treat volume loss, fine lines, and thinning skin in these delicate areas.
Why Consider Body Treatments?
While facial fillers remain popular, many people begin to notice signs of ageing and want to address these other areas of the body. Key benefits from regenerating injectables include:
- Restores lost volume.
- Improves skin texture and firmness.
- Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Non-surgical solution with minimal downtime.
- Restores a youthful look and feel.
- Compliments facial aesthetics harmoniously.
- Added confidence when wearing jewellery, or when hands are visible in public or professional settings.
Body Treatments at STORY Clinics
Our team of experienced medical professionals offer:
Radiesse
An FDA approved biostimulatory filler, which has been used for many years. This treatment can be used in the backs of the hands, the neck and the face. With strong scientific evidence to its beneficiary effects, this product can be diluted to target to address skin laxity and texture, improving key skin conditions.
Ellansé
Another fast-acting biostimulatory filler used in a very similar way to conventional hyaluronic acid based fillers. However, this product has the double stimulatory effect when placed more superficially alongside adding volume. We primarily use Ellansé in the face.
The use of Radiesse or Ellansé will be determined based on your goals, skin condition and your lifestyle. This is discussed during a free consultation prior to a personalised treatment plan provided by your practitioner.
How Long Will The Results Last?
Ellansé and Radiesse treatments both typically last for 1 – 2 years after a course of treatments.
Both treatments’ longevity can vary and should be consulted with a practitioner. Factors depending on the longevity include the treatment area and the amount of product used. Our team will guide you with personalised aftercare and follow-up treatment advice.
Treatment Frequency and Recommended Number of Treatments
Many patients see great results after 1–2 treatments, but your practitioner will advise based on your skin condition and desired outcome. 1 – 3 treatments may be required in a course of treatments.
