Less, but better.
Always by a physician.
Every injectable at Silk Skin is performed by Dr. Nada or Dr. Reem. We use only sealed, traceable, branded product. Cannula technique is the default. We dissolve overfilled faces approximately as often as we fill new ones.

Neuromodulator (Botox)
Precise, low-dose neuromodulator placement that softens lines while preserving expression.
We use only Allergan Botox and Galderma Dysport, dosed conservatively. Our standard upper-face protocol uses 30 — 50 percent less product than typical regional practice, with a microtoxin layer for the lower face when indicated.
Duration
30 minutes
Downtime
None to three hours.
Results
Visible at four to seven days. Peak at two weeks.
Protocol
- 01Dynamic-line photography in twelve expressions.
- 02Mapping of injection points.
- 03Topical cooling (no needles to numbed skin).
- 04Two-week review by phone.
Indicated for
- Forehead lines, glabella, crow's feet.
- Brow lift, nasal-tip lift.
- Masseter slimming and bruxism management.
- Microtoxin for fine pores and lower-face refinement.
Frequently asked
Will my forehead look frozen?+
No. Our protocol preserves brow lift and forehead movement. If you have been over-treated elsewhere, we will tell you to wait.
How long does it last?+
Three to four months for most patients.
What brand do you use?+
Allergan Botox or Galderma Dysport. Sealed and traceable.
Is there a male protocol?+
Yes — male patients receive a structurally different mapping that preserves masculine brow position.

Hyaluronic Acid Filler
Cannula-only, structurally informed filler. We dissolve more often than we fill.
Dr. Reem leads our filler practice. We use only Juvéderm Vycross, Restylane, and Belotero — never unbranded or compounded product. Cannula technique is standard. We refuse to chase trends; we will dissolve overfilled faces and rebuild them properly.
Duration
60 minutes
Downtime
24 — 72 hours light swelling.
Results
Visible at one week. Settled at three weeks.
Protocol
- 01Photographic mapping.
- 02Vascular Doppler check for high-risk areas.
- 03Cannula entry, blunt delivery.
- 04Six-week review included.
Indicated for
- Mid-face and cheek architecture.
- Tear-trough hollowing.
- Lip architecture (Russian, Italian, classical).
- Chin projection and jawline.
- Temple replacement.
Frequently asked
Will I look like a different person?+
If you do, we have failed. We refuse to alter facial identity.
Can you fix filler I had elsewhere?+
Yes. We dissolve and rebuild approximately 40% of new patient cases. There is no judgment.
What products do you use?+
Allergan Juvéderm Vycross collection, Galderma Restylane, and Merz Belotero. All boxes opened in front of you.
Is there filler in the lips?+
Yes — but only architectural lip work. We do not perform 'overfilled' looks at any price.
injectables
Skin Boosters & Polynucleotides
Biostimulating injectables that improve the quality, hydration, and reflective tone of the skin itself.
Where filler restructures, boosters rebuild the skin from within. We work with Profhilo, Restylane Skinboosters, and PhilArt polynucleotides. These are our quietest treatments — and arguably our most effective.
Duration
45 — 60 minutes
Downtime
24 hours of small bumps that settle overnight.
Results
Subtle at two weeks, full at six. Best as a quarterly habit.
Protocol
- 01Skin-quality photography under polarised light.
- 02Topical anaesthetic dwell.
- 03Multi-point micro-injections across cheeks, neck, and décolleté.
- 04Calming compress and aftercare kit.
Indicated for
- Skin that looks 'tired' rather than aged.
- Crepey neck and décolleté.
- Hands and elbows.
- Patients who do not want to look altered.
Frequently asked
What is the difference between Profhilo and polynucleotides?+
Profhilo is a hybrid hyaluronic acid that hydrates and lifts. Polynucleotides are biostimulating fragments derived from purified salmon DNA — they encourage the skin to produce its own collagen.
How often should I have this?+
We recommend a course of two sessions four weeks apart, then a single maintenance every quarter.
injectables
PDO & PLLA Threads
Resorbable thread lifts for jawline, brow, and neck — performed only when filler cannot achieve the goal.
We perform threads selectively — perhaps one in twenty consultations results in a thread plan. When indicated, we use Mint PDO and Silhouette Soft PLLA, performed by Dr. Reem with full surgical sterility.
Duration
75 — 120 minutes
Downtime
Three to five days of light bruising.
Results
Immediate lift, optimal at six weeks, lasts 12 — 18 months.
Protocol
- 01Pre-procedure consultation and consent.
- 02Local anaesthetic infiltration.
- 03Sterile threading via cannula portals.
- 04Two-week post-procedure review.
Indicated for
- Mild jowling that does not yet require surgical lifting.
- Brow asymmetry.
- Neck banding.
Frequently asked
Are threads painful?+
There is pressure but minimal pain. Local anaesthetic is generous.
Can threads replace a facelift?+
No. Threads address the early signs of laxity. They do not replace surgical work for advanced ageing.
