Question 1

Can the fine lines around my mouth be treated?

Accepted Answer

Perioral lines — the fine vertical lines that form around the lips and mouth — develop through repeated lip movement, natural collagen loss and, in some patients, smoking or sun exposure.

Carefully placed micro-doses of anti-wrinkle treatment can soften the muscle activity that creases this area, and in some cases the doctor may recommend combining or substituting with skin-quality treatments depending on whether your lines are movement-related or static. The right approach is confirmed at consultation after assessing how your lines behave at rest and in motion.

Question 2

Can Botox look natural?

Accepted Answer

Natural-looking results depend on careful facial assessment, conservative planning, correct dosage, and respect for your normal expressions. A natural result usually means people notice that you look rested or refreshed, rather than immediately noticing treatment. At Dr Matla Aesthetics Clinic, the goal is to soften unwanted lines while keeping the face expressive and balanced. Muscle movement, facial proportions, age, and personal preferences are all considered before recommending treatment.

Question 3

Is Botox safe?

Accepted Answer

Safety depends on correct patient assessment, appropriate prescribing, precise injection technique, medical knowledge, and realistic treatment planning. Botox-type treatments should only be considered after a consultation with a qualified medical professional who can assess suitability and explain the possible risks and benefits. At Dr Matla Aesthetics Clinic, patient safety is prioritised through consultation, medical history review, facial assessment, and clear aftercare guidance. Not every patient is suitable — some medical conditions, medications, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or recent procedures may affect whether treatment can be performed. Patients are also advised about possible temporary redness, swelling, bruising, headache, asymmetry, or heaviness. A responsible clinic never promises guaranteed results.

Question 4

What is the difference between Botox and dermal fillers?

Accepted Answer

Both treatments are injectable, but they work in different ways. Botox-type treatments are generally used to relax selected muscles that create expression lines. Dermal fillers are usually used to restore volume, contour facial features, or soften certain static folds depending on the product and treatment area. At Dr Matla Aesthetics Clinic in Newcastle, the correct choice depends on your concern — forehead lines, frown lines, and crow's feet may be related to movement, while cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds, or jawline contour may involve volume and structure. Some patients benefit from a combined plan.
