75 boxes. Just landed. đź‘€

This is what it looks like when you’re one of the pioneering doctors who helped create a treatment from scratch, and the world catches up.

babyGLOW is not your average skin booster. It is a precisely developed protocol, refined through years of collaboration, designed to transform skin quality from the inside out. Better hydration. Real luminosity. Smoother, healthier, more radiant skin. And results patients can often see almost immediately after treatment.

Many of our patients choose Essence Medical specifically because they know Dr B**g was part of the original group of doctors who shaped this protocol from the very beginning. That expertise is in every single treatment we deliver.

If you’ve been thinking about babyGLOW, now is a good time to ask yourself: who do you want performing it?

Mature lips don’t need more volume. They need the right approach. 💋

As we age, the lips change in ways most people don’t realise. The border softens, the philtrum lengthens, and the surrounding tissue loses support. Simply adding volume can actually make things look heavier and unnatural.

The secret? Restoring structure. Redefining the border. Supporting the perioral area. And above all… restraint.

This is where clinician skill makes all the difference. Small amounts, placed precisely, create results that are elegant and age-appropriate.

Not bigger lips. Better lips.

If you’ve been told fillers “aren’t for you” at your age, or you’ve seen results that put you off, this is worth watching. 👆

Smoker’s lines aren’t as simple as they look.

Those fine vertical lines around the mouth - often called lip lines or smoker’s lines - are caused by a combination of repeated muscle movement, collagen loss, and gradual thinning of the skin.

Which means treatment isn’t about “filling” in the traditional sense.

At Essence Medical, Dr B**g takes a more considered approach.

Using advanced dermal filler techniques, the focus is on improving skin quality rather than adding volume:

👉🏻A soft, low-viscosity filler that integrates naturally
👉🏻Precise micro-placements placed very superficially
👉🏻Careful technique to soften lines without creating bulk

In many cases, this is combined with a small amount of anti-wrinkle treatment to reduce the movement that contributes to the lines.

The aim is simple.

Smoother, more refined skin around the mouth - while keeping everything looking natural and balanced.

If you’ve been looking into:

👉🏻treatment for smoker’s lines
👉🏻how to reduce lip lines naturally
👉🏻dermal filler around the mouth
👉🏻subtle lip rejuvenation

Technique makes all the difference.

Here’s the part about dermal filler most people don’t get told…

It’s not supposed to last forever.

A lot of people assume filler just “wears off” one day. It doesn’t. It gradually softens, integrates, and fades over time.

And where you place it changes everything.

Lips tend to last around 6–9 months because they’re constantly moving.
Cheeks and jawline can last 12–18 months due to deeper placement and less movement.

But here’s the key point most people miss…

If something is still sitting there years later, that’s not always a good thing.

Good filler should behave predictably. It should soften, settle, and fade naturally - not linger indefinitely.

Your metabolism plays a role too. If you’re very active, you may break it down faster than expected.

So don’t just ask “how long will it last?” Ask how it will age in your face.

If you’re thinking about treatment and want honest, expert advice, we’re here to help.

Deep lines between the brows don’t just change how you look - they can change how people read you.

That constant “tense” or “cross” expression, even when you feel completely fine… it’s something so many people quietly notice but don’t always know can be treated in a refined way.

Dr B**g takes a different approach.

Rather than simply adding volume and puffing the area, he uses a highly specialised filler designed to treat the line itself - allowing for a softer, more precise and natural result.

In the right cases, this can be combined with muscle relaxing treatment to reduce the movement causing the line in the first place.

It’s not about freezing your expression.
It’s about restoring a more relaxed, natural version of you.

If this is something you’ve been thinking about, we’re always happy to talk it through.

Why don’t aesthetic results always match what you see on social media?

It’s a question more people should be asking because what you see online is often carefully controlled. Lighting, angles, filters, and even subtle editing can completely change how a result looks. A smooth forehead or sharp jawline in a photo might not look the same in natural light or in motion.

There’s also something most people don’t realise. You are usually seeing the very best results, on the most suitable candidates, captured at their best angle. Not the full picture.

And then there’s you. Your bone structure, skin quality, muscle movement, and facial proportions are unique. They will influence your result far more than someone else’s before and after.

Aesthetic treatments are three-dimensional and dynamic. Social media is flat and curated. The real goal is not to look like a photo. It’s to look like a natural, balanced, confident version of yourself in real life.

What’s your view on this - do you think social media sets unrealistic expectations for aesthetic treatments?

Most people don’t realise when filler has gone too far… until they see this.

It’s not always obvious.

It’s not one feature.

It’s when the face starts to lose its natural balance.

Here’s what to look for:

👉🏻Cheeks that look too full or pushed forward (that soft “pillow” effect)
👉🏻Lips where the shape is blurred or the top lip sits forward unnaturally
👉🏻A bulky look around the mouth instead of a clean, smooth contour
👉🏻Expressions that feel tight, rounded, or slightly “off” when talking or smiling

Good treatment should never be the first thing you notice. It should support your features, not overpower them.

The goal is always the same - natural structure, balanced proportions, and movement that still feels like you.

If you are questioning previous treatment, or want a more refined, natural result, it’s worth having it properly assessed.

Call 0141 894 9098 to book a consultation with Dr B**g at Essence Medical.

Save this so you know what to look for.

Natural results are not about chasing trends or adding volume for the sake of it.

They come from understanding the face properly. Knowing where support has been lost. Choosing the right product. Placing it in the right layer. And using just enough.

Most filler that looks unnatural is not down to the brand. It is usually too much product or poor placement.

Subtle, well-planned treatment should never be obvious. You should look fresher, more rested, and still like yourself.

That is always the goal.

If you are thinking about treatment and want honest, expert advice, we are here to guide you.

Does lip filler always make your lips look bigger?

Dr B**g explains that it shouldn’t when it’s done properly.

Lip treatment is not just about size. It is about shape, structure and balance. Using small, precise amounts, Dr B**g can define the lip border, improve symmetry and restore volume that naturally reduces over time.

The result should not be obvious.

The best treatments are often the ones you cannot spot. You may look fresher, more polished, but still completely like yourself.

Overfilling is what creates that heavy, unnatural look. Dr B**g’s approach focuses on careful technique and restraint, enhancing what is already there rather than exaggerating it.

Bigger is not the goal. Better is.

To find out what a natural result could look like for you, get in touch.

Can a drooping nasal tip when you smile be improved without surgery?

In many cases, yes - but only with the right diagnosis.

Dr Kieren B**g at Essence Medical explains that this concern is often caused by a small muscle called the depressor septi nasi. When it contracts during smiling, it pulls the tip of the nose downward.

A carefully placed muscle-relaxing treatment can reduce this downward pull, creating a softer, more lifted appearance when smiling.

In some cases, a small amount of dermal filler can also be used to improve support and projection at the nasal tip. This is done subtly, without adding noticeable volume.

However, not every case is suitable for non-surgical treatment.

If the cause is structural, such as cartilage shape, injectable treatments have limitations. Surgical options may be the only way to achieve a definitive result.

A detailed consultation is essential to assess the cause and recommend the most appropriate approach.

To find out what is suitable for you, book a consultation with Dr B**g.
