4 Conditions That A Non-Surgical Facelift Can Treat
14 May 2021 by Omniya ClinicAgeing is a natural process, but the visible changes it brings—like sagging skin, deeper lines, and volume loss—can feel unwelcome. For those looking to address these concerns without surgery, the non surgical facelift, or 8-Point Facelift offers a precise, non-invasive option to restore volume and definition, while maintaining a natural appearance.
This innovative treatment focuses on areas of the face to create a balanced, refreshed look. It’s designed to enhance your features subtly, avoiding drastic alterations and requiring no significant downtime.
1. Nasolabial Folds
What Are Nasolabial Folds?
Nasolabial folds are the deep creases that run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth. These lines can become more pronounced with age due to the natural loss of collagen and elastin, as well as volume loss in the mid-face. Weight fluctuations can also exacerbate the appearance of nasolabial folds.
How We Treat Nasolabial Folds
Our specialists use dermal fillers to restore lost volume and smooth out these lines. By carefully injecting fillers into the targeted areas, we enhance the contours of your face and stimulate collagen production, resulting in a more youthful and natural appearance.

2. Crow’s Feet
What Causes Crow’s Feet?
Crow’s feet are the fine lines that appear around the outer corners of the eyes. They are often caused by repeated muscle movement, such as smiling or squinting, combined with the natural loss of skin elasticity as we age. These lines can make the eyes look tired and aged.
How We Address Crow’s Feet
At Omniya Clinic, we often combine Botox and dermal fillers to treat crow’s feet. Botox relaxes the underlying muscles, preventing excessive movement that deepens wrinkles, while fillers add volume to rejuvenate the delicate skin around the eyes. This dual approach restores a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Testimonial
"Dr. Thu Linh Nguyen recommended Botox for my crow’s feet, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. My eyes look brighter, and the treatment was quick and painless!" – James, 50

3. Marionette Lines
What Are Marionette Lines?
Marionette lines are vertical wrinkles that extend from the corners of the mouth down to the chin. Over time, these lines can create a drooping or downturned expression, often making people look sad or tired. Ageing, gravity, and reduced collagen production are key factors in their development.
Treatment Options
We use marionette line fillers to lift and smooth these lines, creating a refreshed and more positive appearance. The fillers are carefully placed to add volume and structure, with results visible almost immediately. The procedure is quick and minimally invasive, with no downtime required.
Testimonial
"Dr. Ayad's expertise in treating marionette lines was evident from the start. He took the time to understand my concerns and achieved fantastic results. I look like myself, only younger!" – Emma, 47

4. An Uneven Jawline
Why Is the Jawline Important?
The jawline plays a significant role in defining facial structure and symmetry. However, ageing, genetics, or injury can lead to an uneven or less defined jawline. Sagging skin, commonly referred to as jowls, can also blur the contours of the face, affecting overall balance and appearance.
Non-Surgical Solutions
At Omniya Clinic, we use a combination of jawline Botox and dermal fillers to sculpt and enhance the jawline. Botox relaxes the masseter muscles, slimming and refining the lower face, while fillers add volume and definition. These treatments are highly effective in creating a more contoured and youthful jawline.
Testimonial
"I’d always felt self-conscious about my jawline, but the results from Dr. Thu Linh’s treatment are incredible. The combination of Botox and fillers has given me the definition I’d been hoping for!" – Michael, 41

The Non Surgical Facelift: 8 Points
The 8-Point Facelift is a carefully planned treatment that uses dermal fillers in eight targeted areas of the face. Each injection is strategically placed to lift and rejuvenate, addressing key concerns in a way that works with your natural facial structure.
1. Over Lateral Zygoma
Located at the upper outer cheekbone, this point defines the area where the cheek meets the temple. It adds structure to the cheek and enhances its contour.
2. Junction of Maxilla and Zygoma
By focusing on the cheekbone itself, fillers at this point restore volume and create youthful curves that soften the mid-face.
3. Malar Fat Pad
The malar fat pad is within the cheek, an area that often loses volume over time. Treating this point lifts and softens the cheek, contributing to a more refreshed look.
4. Canine Fossa
This area, near the nasolabial folds, smooths the lines that run from the nose to the mouth. It helps restore a more rested and youthful appearance.
5. Point of Support for Oral Commissure
Also referred to as the corners of the mouth or marionette lines, this point addresses areas that can give a downturned or sad look, creating subtle lift and support.
6. Pre-Jowl Sulcus
The pre-jowl sulcus is the hollow along the jawline that develops with age. Fillers here help smooth and redefine the jawline.
7. Angle of the Mandible
Focusing on the angle of the jawline, this injection sharpens and defines the lower face, restoring its youthful structure.
8. Sub-Zygomatic Hollow
This point targets volume loss in the lower cheek. Treating this area helps combat a tired or hollowed look, giving the face a more balanced appearance.
Together, these points work harmoniously to lift and restore the face, creating a more youthful and rested look while respecting natural facial anatomy.
What Results Can You Expect?
The 8-Point Facelift offers subtle, natural results. It’s not about changing how you look but about enhancing your features and addressing concerns caused by volume loss and sagging.
Key Benefits:
- A refreshed and natural appearance, avoiding any “overdone” look.
- Improved facial balance and shape.
- Softened lines and wrinkles for smoother skin.
- Lifted facial dynamics, adding support where it’s needed most.
- Reduced under-eye hollows and dark circles.
- Enhanced jawline and cheek definition.
- A gradual improvement that continues to develop over the weeks following treatment.
This holistic approach means that the face looks naturally revitalised, rather than noticeably altered, and patients often comment that they feel more confident and rejuvenated.
Who is the 8-Point Facelift For?
This treatment is good for anyone with multiple areas of concern due to aging or volume loss. It’s great for:
- Cheek Volume and Definition: Getting back that youthful shape in the mid-face.
- Tear Troughs: Filling in under-eye hollows to look less tired.
- Nasolabial Folds: Smoothing the lines between the nose and mouth for a softer look.
- Marionette Lines: Lifting and supporting the corners of the mouth.
- Jowl Area: Tightening loose skin for a smoother jawline.
- Jawline Definition: Shaping the profile for a more chiseled look.
This approach treats the face as a whole so no one area looks treated.
Non-Surgical
One of the best things about the 8-Point Facelift is that it’s non-surgical. It uses minimal dermal fillers and can be done in one session with no downtime.
In the past, treatments focused on individual wrinkles or lines. But now we know volume and structure are key to looking youthful. By addressing the underlying causes of aging, the 8-Point Facelift gives the face the support it needs to look naturally refreshed.
Volume Loss
Facial aging is caused by gradual volume loss in key areas which leads to sagging, wrinkles and hollows. The 8-Point Facelift addresses this by replacing lost volume in specific areas which not only enhances the appearance but also gives the skin the structural support it needs.
The treatment uses high quality dermal fillers to replace this volume, working with the natural shape of your face. Unlike old school techniques that just filled lines, this modern approach looks at the bigger picture of the face to get results that look natural and balanced.
Moving Forward
The non surgical facelift offers an advanced solution for those seeking to address multiple areas of concern in a way that feels natural and gradual. It provides an alternative to surgical facelifts, without the risks or lengthy recovery.
If you’re considering a non-surgical approach to facial rejuvenation, it’s worth exploring this treatment further. By targeting the areas most affected by aging, it can deliver results that leave you looking like the best version of yourself.
