Inject

Injectable Treatments

Our injectable treatments are about enhancement, not transformation — subtle, natural-looking results delivered with clinical precision. From anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers to skin boosters, bio-stimulators and PDO thread lifts, our doctors and nurses tailor every treatment to you, always with a ‘less is more’ philosophy.

Anti-Wrinkle

Injectable treatment

Anti-Wrinkle

Looking for effective, natural-looking Botox® treatments in Quay Street, Auckland City and Takapuna. Our clinics specialise in personalised anti-wrinkle injections designed to refresh your appearance, reduce dynamic lines, and enhance facial harmony - without compromising your natural expression.

Botulinum Toxin is used around the world for both cosmetic and therapeutic purposes. In New Zealand, it is available in three registered forms: Botox®, Dysport®, and Xeomin®. At our clinics, Botox® is the most popular choice among clients looking to reduce signs of ageing, prevent deepening wrinkles, and maintain a smooth, youthful appearance.


What to Expect from Treatment

Each face is unique, and so is every treatment we provide. Your appointment begins with a personalised consultation to understand your goals and assess the best approach. During this time, your clinician will map out a tailored plan to deliver the results you’re looking for - whether that’s softening existing lines or helping to prevent the formation of new ones.

Results typically begin to appear within 2–3 days, with full results visible by 14 to 21 days post-treatment. Effects can last anywhere from 6 weeks to 6 months, depending on the area treated, individual muscle activity, and the dose used.

What is Botox®?

Botox® is a prescription-only neuromodulator that works by gently relaxing specific facial muscles responsible for expression lines. It is commonly used to treat frown lines, crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, and other signs of facial ageing. Beyond cosmetic benefits, Botox® is also widely used for non-cosmetic concerns such as chronic headaches, jaw tension, and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis).

When precisely administered, Botox® delivers subtle, refined results, allowing you to look refreshed and well-rested - without looking frozen or overdone.

What to Expect from Your Botox® Treatment

Every face is unique, which is why each Botox® treatment plan begins with a comprehensive consultation. Your clinician will assess your facial structure, muscle movement, and skin condition before tailoring a treatment strategy that aligns with your goals.

Clients typically notice initial softening of lines within 2–3 days, with full results appearing within 14–21 days. Depending on the area treated and individual muscle activity, results can last between 6 weeks and 6 months.

Common treatment areas include:

  • Forehead lines
  • Frown lines (glabellar lines)
  • Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
  • Neck bands (Platysmal bands)
Why Choose The Face Place?

We believe that Botox® is both a science and an art. Our skilled practitioners use advanced facial assessment techniques and precise dosing to create natural-looking results that enhance your facial features without compromising your expressions.

The goal is not to eliminate all movement, but to soften overactive muscles and support skin rejuvenation - so you still look like you, only more refreshed and confident.

Unless otherwise requested, we use genuine Botox®, trusted globally and extensively used for over 20 years across both cosmetic and medical applications.

Our Approach: Subtle, Balanced, and Refined

Our focus is on achieving natural-looking outcomes that enhance your appearance without diminishing your individuality. Rather than “freezing” expressions, we aim to rebalance muscle activity to smooth the skin while preserving the warmth and movement that make your face yours. This precise approach- delivering the right - amount of product to the right muscles-is why clients trust us to deliver consistently beautiful, harmonious results.

Botox® During Pregnancy or Breastfeeding

Botulinum Toxin has not been studied in pregnant or breastfeeding women, and its effects in these situations are unknown. For this reason, we do not perform Botox® injections during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, and recommend postponing treatment until a later time.

Skin Boosters

Injectable treatment

Skin Boosters

Looking for a non-surgical way to improve your skin’s glow, smoothness, and elasticity?

Our clinic offers a premium selection of injectable skin booster treatments in Central Auckland and Takapuna, designed to deeply hydrate and rejuvenate the skin - without changing your facial shape or structure.

Unlike dermal fillers that restore volume, skin boosters work at a cellular level to improve skin quality. These injectable treatments stimulate collagen, increase hydration, and enhance skin texture - resulting in a natural, luminous appearance that looks refreshed, not "done."

What Are Skin Boosters?

Skin boosters are injectable treatments that use ingredients like hyaluronic acid (HA) and amino acids to nourish the skin from within. They improve skin tone, firmness, hydration, and elasticity, making them ideal for anyone experiencing dullness, fine lines, crepey texture, or early signs of ageing.

At our clinics, we offer four leading skin boosters tailored to different skin concerns:
  • SkinVive™ by Allergan
  • Profhilo®
  • Profhilo Structura®
  • Sunekos®

Each product has a distinct formulation and treatment purpose, allowing us to create customised skin booster plans based on your skin condition, treatment goals, and lifestyle.

What to Expect from Skin Booster Treatments

Your journey begins with a one-on-one consultation with our experienced aesthetic clinicians. We’ll assess your skin condition, discuss your goals, and recommend the most suitable skin booster or combination of boosters.

Treatments involve a series of small injections placed just under the surface of the skin - commonly in the face, neck, or décolletage. These microinjections deliver powerful hydration and stimulate your skin’s natural repair and regeneration processes.

You’ll begin to notice results within days to a few weeks, with improved hydration, skin firmness, and radiance. Most clients benefit from a course of 2–3 sessions spaced a few weeks apart, with results lasting between 4 to 9 months, depending on the product used.

SkinVive™ by Allergan

A hyaluronic acid-based skin quality treatment designed specifically for the cheeks, SkinVive™ uses microdroplet technology to improve hydration, texture, and glow without adding volume. Ideal for restoring radiance to tired, dull skin. Results typically last up to 9 months.

Profhilo®

Known for its powerful skin remodelling effect, Profhilo® spreads beneath the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production. Best suited for the face and neck, this treatment lifts and firms while deeply hydrating. Typically completed in two sessions, one month apart, with results lasting up to 6 months.

Profhilo Structura®

A more robust formulation of Profhilo®, Structura® is ideal for areas of volume loss such as the lower face and jawline. It provides added structure, elasticity, and hydration, while supporting firmer skin in areas where natural support has weakened over time.

Sunekos®

Combining hyaluronic acid with amino acids, Sunekos® is a bio-regenerative injectable designed to stimulate collagen production and restore delicate, thin skin. Ideal for areas such as under the eyes, neck, forehead, and around the mouth, it improves tone, firmness, and elasticity with minimal downtime.

Why Choose Us for Skin Booster Treatments in Auckland?

At our clinics, skin quality is at the heart of everything we do. Our team of experienced aesthetic professionals will design a treatment plan to suit your skin’s needs and your lifestyle - so you achieve natural, refreshed results that enhance, not alter, your features.
Whether you're targeting early signs of ageing, dryness, or simply want to restore a healthy glow, we’ll help you choose the right skin booster to get the best results.

Are Skin Boosters Right for You?

Skin boosters are suitable for most skin types and are ideal for clients seeking skin rejuvenation without added volume. However, they are not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, as clinical safety data is not available for these groups.
A full medical history will be reviewed during your consultation to ensure treatment suitability and safety.

Dermal Filler

Injectable treatment

Dermal Filler

Natural, Artful Facial Rejuvenation

Dermal fillers are advanced cosmetic injectables designed to restore lost volume, smooth lines, lift and sculpt facial contours, and refresh your appearance with subtle, natural-looking results. Considered one of the most skillful and artistic injectable treatments, dermal filler requires a trained professional to enhance your unique facial features while maintaining natural expression and balance.

We exclusively use Hyaluronic Acid (HA) based fillers - biodegradable, effective, and reversible with a natural enzyme called hyaluronidase. HA is a sugar molecule naturally found in the body that diminishes with age, leading to thinner, drier skin and volume loss. By carefully injecting HA filler at precise depths, we can rejuvenate and reshape areas of the face instantly and beautifully.

Dermal fillers can address a variety of concerns and areas, including:

Lips: Restore hydration, volume, and natural contours without overfilling or unnatural shapes.

Under-eye Hollows (Tear Troughs): Lift and blend the lower eyelid with the cheek for a refreshed, less tired look.

Cheeks and Mid-Face: Replenish volume loss to lift sagging skin and recreate youthful contours.

Nasolabial and Marionette Lines: Soften deeper folds around the nose and mouth for a smoother appearance.

Chin and Jawline: Define and sculpt the lower face, improving profile balance and strengthening facial structure.

Hands and Other Areas: Rejuvenate volume loss beyond the face when appropriate.

Dermal fillers can also restore facial symmetry in cases of trauma or facial palsy, helping to rebuild natural balance.

How Does It Work?

Our expert clinicians assess your facial anatomy and ageing pattern during an initial consultation, creating a bespoke treatment plan tailored to your goals and proportions. Treatments are often performed in stages to achieve gradual, natural enhancements that keep improving over time.

Because we prioritise safety and natural results, we carefully select the appropriate filler type, amount, and injection technique for each area. The effects are immediate, with results typically lasting between 6 to 18 months depending on the product and treatment area.

Dermal fillers are considered medical devices and treatments carry risks and benefits. Individual results will vary. Our highly trained doctors and nurses thoroughly discuss potential risks and side effects during your consultation. We do not use permanent fillers due to their higher risk profile and long-term complications. Our approach focuses on temporary, natural enhancements that evolve with your changing features.

The First Step: Consultation

Every dermal filler journey begins with an Initial Injectable Consultation. This is your opportunity to be fully informed about treatment options, benefits, risks, and to receive a personalised assessment. Whether you’ve had treatment elsewhere or are new to fillers, this step ensures you feel confident and educated before proceeding.

Dissolving Dermal Filler Safely with Hyalase

Dermal fillers made from hyaluronic acid (HA) are among the most popular cosmetic injectables worldwide. They’re used to restore volume, soften lines, and enhance facial contours such as lips, cheeks, chin, and under-eye areas. A major advantage of HA fillers is that they are temporary and reversible, typically lasting between 4 to 18 months depending on the product used.

When needed, unwanted or misplaced HA filler can be dissolved quickly and effectively using Hyalase - an injectable enzyme (hyaluronidase) that naturally breaks down hyaluronic acid in the body. Hyalase accelerates the breakdown of the filler, allowing your body to absorb and remove it as carbon dioxide and water.

Over time, some people may experience filler migration or excessive volume buildup, particularly when treated frequently or with larger amounts. This can lead to unnatural appearances, such as the ‘duck lip’ effect from filler migrating into the upper lip or puffiness under the eyes. While filler migration can happen after any treatment, it is more commonly linked to over-treatment or inappropriate product placement.

If you’re unhappy with your filler results - whether treated at The Face Place or at another clinic - we can assess and dissolve the filler as needed. We do recommend initially contacting your original provider to allow them to manage corrections. However, if that isn’t possible, we are experienced and ready to assist.

Before dissolving filler with Hyalase, a patch test on your arm is always performed to rule out any allergic reactions, as all products carry a very small risk of allergy. If a reaction occurs during this test, the treatment will not proceed, and we will discuss alternatives.

Hyalase begins working immediately upon injection, with visible results typically appearing within 24 to 48 hours. Some swelling is normal in the treated area. For optimal healing, we recommend waiting approximately two weeks before considering any further filler treatments to allow your tissues to fully recover.

For clients with migrated or overfilled lips, dissolving filler with Hyalase can offer a “clean canvas” to start fresh, helping achieve more natural, balanced results in subsequent treatments. Similarly, unwanted filler under the eyes can be effectively dissolved to reduce puffiness and restore a smoother contour.

Cellular Rejuvenation

Injectable treatment

Cellular Rejuvenation

Support your skin’s natural repair process for smoother, firmer, and more radiant results - naturally.

Our Cellular Rejuvenation treatments are a range of advanced injectable procedures designed to stimulate your body’s own regenerative abilities. By encouraging collagen production, tissue repair, and hydration at the cellular level, these treatments help to improve skin texture, firmness, and luminosity - without adding volume or changing your facial structure.

Cellular rejuvenation is ideal for addressing common signs of ageing such as fine lines, thinning skin, dullness, and mild scarring. It’s also an effective option for supporting hair growth in those experiencing early-stage hair loss.

Each treatment is carefully tailored to your individual needs and performed by one of our highly trained Cosmedicine Nurses or Doctors. Whether you're looking to refresh the skin on your face, neck, décolletage, hands - or even boost hair density - our regenerative skin treatments offer a subtle, natural-looking result that builds over time.

Benefits of Cellular Rejuvenation:
  • Smoother, more even skin texture
  • Firmer and thicker skin, especially in delicate areas (e.g. around the eyes and neck)
  • Improved luminosity and hydration
    Reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, and crepiness
  • Healthier-looking hands and décolletage
  • Support for natural hair growth in thinning areas
  • Enhanced skin quality on both face and body
How does it work?

Cellular Rejuvenation uses targeted microinjections of a regenerative component derived from your own body, combined with advanced skin techniques like microneedling or dermal fillers (depending on the treatment). This stimulates collagen and elastin production, boosts hydration, and supports long-term skin health.

What to expect:

Treatment sessions take approximately 30–60 minutes.

A typical course includes 3–4 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart.

Maintenance is recommended every 6–12 months.

Mild redness, swelling or bruising is common but temporary.

Results typically begin to show around 3 weeks, with gradual, cumulative improvements over time.

Is it suitable for me?

Cellular Rejuvenation is suitable for a wide range of skin concerns and ages. It’s particularly effective for:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Textural concerns
  • Dull or dehydrated skin
  • Crepey or thinning skin
  • Aged hands or neck
  • Hair thinning (scalp)
  • Post-acne marks or mild scarring
Exomide Cell Exosomes

Discover the next-generation of hair and skin rejuvenation. Our Exomide Cell Exosomes deliver:

  • 10 billion exosomes for hair - targeted to revitalise your scalp, reinvigorate follicles and enhance hair density and strength.

These ultra-small vesicles are enriched with growth-factors, proteins and signalling RNAs that support cellular communication and regeneration from the inside out.

Ideal for anyone seeking to restore vitality - whether you’re addressing visible signs of aging on the skin, or thinning hair at the scalp - Exomide offers a powerful, state-of-the-art solution for dramatic, natural-looking renewal.

Skin Texture & Rejuvenation Treatments

As we age, our skin naturally loses collagen and elasticity, resulting in fine lines, wrinkles, dullness, and a crepey appearance - especially around the eyes, neck, decolletage, and hands. Lifestyle factors, sun exposure, and genetics can accelerate these visible signs of ageing.

Our injectable skin treatment is designed to support the skin’s natural repair process by stimulating collagen production and promoting cellular regeneration. Using a substance derived from your own body, this treatment delivers targeted rejuvenation, leaving your skin firmer, smoother, and more luminous.

Unlike dermal fillers, this procedure does not add volume. Instead, it enhances your skin’s natural glow and texture over time - making it ideal for those seeking natural skin rejuvenation with long-term benefits.

This treatment is ideal for:
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Dry, dull or uneven skin tone
  • Crepey skin around the eyes and neck
  • Skin rejuvenation for hands and décolletage
  • Softening mild acne scarring and improving texture
How does it work?

This injectable treatment activates your skin’s natural healing response by delivering growth factors that help boost collagen and elastin. Visible results typically appear around three weeks after treatment and continue to improve over the following months.

What to expect:

Mild redness or swelling is common, especially in more delicate areas, and usually resolves within 24-48 hours. Bruising may occur and generally fades within one to two weeks. A series of treatments may be recommended for optimal results.

PDO Thread Lift

Injectable treatment

PDO Thread Lift

Thread lifting is a non-surgical procedure designed to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate the skin for a more youthful appearance. At The Face Place, we offer Sculpt Threads, Ponytail Threads, and Mint PDO Threads - premium, TGA-approved and Medsafe-listed threads known for their safety, quality, and long-lasting results. These treatments are performed by highly trained medical professionals to ensure natural-looking outcomes and minimal downtime.

What Can Threads Do?

Thread lifting can:

  • Lift sagging skin on the face, jawline, neck, and brows
  • Improve skin firmness and elasticity
  • Stimulate collagen production for long-term skin quality improvement
  • Refresh facial contours without surgery

Whether you’re looking for a subtle lift or a more defined facial contour, threads can be tailored to your individual needs.

How Do Threads Work?

PDO (polydioxanone) threads are biocompatible sutures inserted under the skin to create an immediate lifting effect. Over the following months, they stimulate collagen production, helping the skin become firmer, smoother, and more youthful in texture. The threads naturally dissolve over time, leaving behind your body’s own collagen for results that can last up to 12–18 months.

The First Steps: Consultation

Every thread lift treatment begins with a personalised consultation. During this appointment, your Doctor will assess your skin, discuss your concerns and desired outcomes, and create a customised treatment plan. You’ll also receive information on what to expect before, during, and after your procedure so you feel confident every step of the way.

Book your consultation today and discover how PDO threads can lift, tighten, and revitalise your skin without surgery.
