LOCALISED BODY FAT TREATMENT IN MORPETH
Localised Body Fat Deposits
Some areas of localised fat can be resistant to changes in diet and exercise. These deposits may affect the contours of the body, even when you maintain a generally healthy lifestyle.
Fat-dissolving injections may be an option for selected areas of stubborn, localised fat. At SG Aesthetics in Morpeth, Sarah Gilmour takes an individual approach, assessing the area, your suitability and your expectations before recommending treatment.
A considered approach to localised body fat
The most appropriate approach depends on the location and amount of fat, as well as the condition of the surrounding skin. Fat-dissolving injections are intended for specific, localised deposits rather than general weight loss or the treatment of larger areas of excess fat.
Recommended Treatment
DesoBody® Fat-Dissolving Injections
DesoBody® is a fat-dissolving injectable treatment designed to target localised fat deposits in suitable areas of the body. The treatment works by disrupting fat cells in the treated area, allowing the body to gradually clear the resulting cellular material.
Treatment suitability, the number of sessions required and the degree of improvement will vary between individuals. A consultation with Sarah will help establish whether DesoBody® is appropriate for the area you wish to address, alongside a discussion of the potential benefits, limitations and risks.
Submental Fat (Double Chin)

DOUBLE CHIN TREATMENT IN MORPETH
Submental Fat (Double Chin)
Fullness beneath the chin, often referred to as a double chin, can affect the definition of the jawline and the profile of the lower face. It may be influenced by localised fat, genetics, ageing or changes in skin elasticity, and can occur at different body weights.
The most suitable treatment depends on what is contributing to the area. Where localised fat is the main concern, fat-dissolving injections may be an option. Where mild skin laxity affects the appearance beneath the chin, a skin-tightening treatment may be worth considering.
A considered approach to submental fat
At SG Aesthetics, Sarah Gilmour assesses the area beneath the chin, taking into account your facial anatomy, skin condition and desired outcome. This helps determine whether a non-surgical treatment may be appropriate and what degree of improvement is realistic.
Recommended Treatments
Fat-Dissolving Injections (DesoFace®)
Fat-dissolving injections are designed to target localised fat beneath the chin. In suitable patients, treatment may help reduce fullness and improve the definition of the lower face. The number of treatments required and the degree of improvement will vary. A consultation is essential to assess suitability and discuss potential side effects and risks.
HIFU
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) delivers focused energy beneath the skin to stimulate collagen remodelling. Where mild skin laxity contributes to fullness beneath the chin, it may help improve firmness and the appearance of the lower face. HIFU does not directly dissolve fat, and its suitability depends on the cause of the concern.
Sarah will explain the potential benefits, limitations and risks of each option during your consultation, helping you understand which approach may be appropriate for you.
Overall Skin Quality

SKIN REJUVENATION IN MORPETH
Overall Skin Quality
Healthy-looking skin is about more than the absence of wrinkles. Texture, hydration, tone, elasticity and radiance all contribute to the overall appearance of your complexion. Over time, ageing, environmental exposure and lifestyle factors can affect these qualities, leaving skin looking dull, uneven or less supple.
At SG Aesthetics, we offer a range of non-surgical treatments which may help improve skin quality, depending on your individual concerns. Whether your priority is hydration, smoother texture or improved firmness, the right approach begins with understanding your skin and its needs.
A considered approach to skin quality
Sarah Gilmour takes a personalised approach to skin rejuvenation, assessing your skin condition and concerns before recommending suitable treatments. The aim is to support healthier-looking skin and achieve natural, gradual improvements where possible, rather than promise a one-size-fits-all solution.
Recommended Treatments
Polynucleotides
Polynucleotide treatments are designed to support skin quality and regeneration. In suitable patients, they may help improve hydration, elasticity and the appearance of fine lines, with results developing gradually.
Skin Boosters
Skin boosters can improve skin hydration and suppleness, helping the complexion appear smoother and more refreshed. They may be particularly suitable when dehydration and a loss of skin radiance are among your main concerns.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels use carefully selected acids to exfoliate the skin and encourage renewal. Depending on the formulation, they may help improve uneven texture, dullness, congestion and some forms of uneven pigmentation.
RF Microneedling with Exosomes
Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling combines controlled microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen remodelling. It may help improve skin texture, firmness and the appearance of fine lines over time. Any use of exosome-based products should be discussed with Sarah, including the specific product, its intended use and the available evidence.
Sculptra®
Sculptra is an injectable collagen stimulator that encourages gradual collagen production. It may help improve skin firmness and restore volume in selected treatment areas. Its suitability depends on the area being treated and the concerns being addressed, rather than being a general treatment for every aspect of skin quality.
The most appropriate treatment will depend on your skin, your priorities and your medical history. Sarah will discuss the potential benefits, limitations and risks during your consultation.
Neck Wrinkles

NECK WRINKLE TREATMENT IN MORPETH
Neck Wrinkles
Lines and wrinkles on the neck are a natural part of the ageing process. Over time, changes in collagen, elastin and skin hydration can make lines more noticeable, while repeated movement and prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation can also contribute to their appearance.
The pattern and depth of neck wrinkles vary from person to person and are influenced by factors such as genetics, lifestyle and sun exposure. Depending on the type of lines and the condition of your skin, suitable treatments may help improve skin quality and soften their appearance.
A considered approach to neck wrinkles
At SG Aesthetics, Sarah Gilmour assesses your skin and individual concerns before recommending a suitable approach. The aim is to improve the appearance of the skin while maintaining realistic expectations about what non-surgical treatments can achieve.
Recommended Treatments
Polynucleotides
Polynucleotide treatments are designed to support skin quality and regeneration. In suitable patients, they may help improve hydration, elasticity and the appearance of fine lines. Results vary, and they are not expected to eliminate deeper wrinkles.
Sculptra®
Sculptra is an injectable collagen stimulator that encourages gradual collagen production. It may help improve skin quality and firmness in selected treatment areas. Its suitability for neck wrinkles should be assessed individually, as it is not a universal treatment for lines on the neck.
HIFU
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) delivers focused energy beneath the skin to stimulate collagen remodelling. It may help improve firmness where mild skin laxity contributes to the appearance of neck ageing, but it is not a direct treatment for every type of wrinkle.
Sarah will discuss the options, their potential benefits and limitations, and any associated risks during your consultation.
Loss of Elasticity

HEADER IMAGE — MOBILE
SKIN FIRMNESS & ELASTICITY IN MORPETH
Loss of Elasticity
As we age, our skin gradually loses collagen and elastin, the proteins that help it maintain firmness, flexibility and support. These changes can lead to looser skin, reduced definition and a crepey texture, particularly around the neck and lower face.
The extent of these changes varies from person to person and can be influenced by factors including genetics, sun exposure and lifestyle. While non-surgical treatments cannot remove significant excess skin, some may help improve skin quality, firmness and the appearance of mild laxity.
A considered approach to loss of skin elasticity
At SG Aesthetics, Sarah Gilmour assesses your skin condition and individual concerns before recommending an appropriate treatment. The aim is to support healthier-looking, firmer skin while maintaining natural features and realistic expectations.
Recommended Treatments
Polynucleotides
Polynucleotide treatments are designed to support skin quality and regeneration. In suitable patients, they may help improve hydration, elasticity and the appearance of fine lines, although the degree of improvement will vary.
Skin Boosters
Skin boosters can improve skin hydration and quality, helping it appear smoother and more supple. They may be suitable where dryness and fine lines contribute to a less firm-looking complexion, but they do not remove excess skin.
RF Microneedling with Exosomes
Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling combines controlled microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen remodelling. It may help improve skin texture and firmness over time. Any use of exosome-based products should be discussed with Sarah, including the specific product, its intended use and the available evidence.
Sculptra®
Sculptra is an injectable collagen stimulator that encourages gradual collagen production. It may help improve skin firmness and restore facial volume in suitable patients. Its role in treating neck laxity will depend on the treatment area and individual suitability, which should be assessed before proceeding.
HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound)
HIFU uses focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production in the deeper layers of the skin. It may help improve skin firmness and definition, making it a potential option for addressing loss of elasticity and mild skin laxity. Suitability and results will vary depending on the individual and the area being treated.
Sarah will explain the potential benefits, limitations and risks of each option during your consultation, helping you understand which treatment, if any, is appropriate for your concerns.
Neck Bands

NECK BAND TREATMENT IN MORPETH
Neck Bands
Vertical bands in the neck can become more noticeable with age, particularly when the platysma muscle becomes prominent beneath the skin. This broad, superficial muscle extends from the lower face into the neck and plays a role in facial expression and movement.
The appearance of neck bands varies between individuals and can be influenced by muscle activity, skin elasticity and the natural ageing process. Where muscle activity is a contributing factor, anti-wrinkle injections may help soften the appearance of prominent bands.
A considered approach to neck bands
At SG Aesthetics, Sarah Gilmour takes a careful, individual approach to treating the neck. Assessment of the platysma muscle, skin condition and overall neck anatomy helps determine whether treatment is appropriate and what degree of improvement may be realistic.
Recommended Treatments
Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Botulinum toxin injections can temporarily reduce the activity of selected areas of the platysma muscle, potentially softening the appearance of vertical neck bands. The treatment requires detailed anatomical knowledge and precise placement, as the neck contains important muscles involved in movement and swallowing.
Results typically develop over several days, with the duration varying between individuals. Treatment may not address loose skin or other causes of neck ageing, and suitability will be discussed during your consultation.
Jawline Definition
HEADER IMAGE

JAWLINE ENHANCEMENT IN MORPETH
Jawline Definition
The shape and definition of the jawline are influenced by facial structure, skin elasticity and the distribution of soft tissue. Over time, changes in these areas can soften the jawline, while natural asymmetry or changes following weight loss may also affect its appearance.
Depending on the underlying cause, non-surgical treatments may help improve definition and create a more balanced appearance. The most suitable approach will depend on your facial anatomy, the degree of skin laxity and your desired outcome.
A considered approach to jawline definition
At SG Aesthetics, Sarah Gilmour takes an individual approach to lower-face rejuvenation, assessing the structure of the jawline and the condition of the surrounding skin before recommending treatment. The aim is to enhance your natural features while maintaining facial balance and proportion.
Recommended Treatments
HIFU
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) delivers focused energy beneath the skin to stimulate collagen remodelling. In suitable patients, it may help improve skin firmness and the appearance of mild laxity around the lower face and jawline. Results vary, and it is not a substitute for surgery where there is significant excess skin.
Dermal Fillers
Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers can add structural support and definition to selected areas of the jawline. They may be suitable where a lack of volume or definition is a contributing factor, particularly when skin laxity is limited. Fillers do not remove excess skin or directly eliminate jowls, and careful assessment is essential.
Sarah will discuss the potential benefits, limitations and risks of each option during your consultation, helping you understand which approach may be appropriate for you.
Cheek Definition

CHEEK ENHANCEMENT IN MORPETH
Cheek Definition
Well-defined cheeks can contribute to facial balance, structure and proportion. However, natural facial anatomy, changes in volume and the ageing process can all influence the appearance of the cheekbones.
Dermal fillers can be used to enhance cheek definition and create a more sculpted appearance without surgery. Treatment is tailored to your individual facial structure, with the aim of complementing your natural features rather than changing them.
A considered approach to cheek definition
At SG Aesthetics, Sarah Gilmour takes a personalised approach to cheek contouring, carefully assessing your facial proportions and desired outcome before recommending treatment. The focus is on subtle, balanced enhancement that respects your natural features.
Recommended Treatments
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Dermal Fillers
Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers can add volume and definition to selected areas of the cheeks, helping to enhance cheekbone contours and improve facial balance. The amount and placement of filler are carefully considered to achieve a result that suits your features.
Results vary depending on the product used, the treatment area and individual factors. Sarah will discuss the potential benefits, limitations and risks during your consultation.
Ageing Cheeks

CHEEK REJUVENATION IN MORPETH
Ageing Cheeks
As we get older, changes in collagen, skin elasticity, facial fat and underlying bone structure can affect the appearance of our cheeks. The mid-face may gradually lose volume and definition, sometimes creating a flatter or more hollow appearance that can make the face look tired.
These changes are a natural part of ageing, but their effects vary from person to person. At SG Aesthetics, treatments can be tailored to your facial structure and individual concerns, with the aim of restoring balance and supporting a natural-looking result.
A considered approach to ageing cheeks
SG Aesthetics take a personalised approach to cheek rejuvenation, assessing facial volume, skin quality and structure before recommending a suitable treatment. The aim is not to change your natural features, but to support facial definition and harmony in a way that suits you.
Recommended Treatments
Dermal Fillers
Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers can restore volume to selected areas of the cheeks, improve definition and provide structural support where appropriate. Treatment is carefully tailored to your facial proportions, with a focus on balanced, natural-looking results rather than excessive volume.
Sculptra®
Sculptra is a collagen-stimulating injectable treatment that works gradually to support improvements in skin firmness and facial volume. Rather than providing the immediate volumising effect of a traditional dermal filler, results develop over time as collagen production is stimulated. Suitability and the expected degree of improvement will depend on your individual needs.
The most appropriate treatment will depend on your facial anatomy, the changes you wish to address and your desired outcome. Sarah will discuss the available options, their limitations and potential risks during your consultation.
Downturned Mouth Corners

LOWER FACE REJUVENATION IN MORPETH
Downturned Mouth Corners
Downturned mouth corners can create the impression of a sad, tired or unhappy expression, even when you feel perfectly well and content. This can be influenced by natural facial structure, changes in skin elasticity and volume as we age, or the activity of the muscles around the mouth.
One of these muscles, the Depressor Anguli Oris (DAO), pulls the corners of the mouth downwards. In some people, its activity contributes to a downturned appearance. In others, changes in facial volume or skin laxity may play a greater role.
A considered approach to downturned mouth corners
At SG Aesthetics, Sarah Gilmour takes an individual approach to improving the appearance of downturned mouth corners. Following a consultation, she can assess the contributing factors and discuss whether a suitable treatment may help create a more balanced, natural-looking expression.
Recommended Treatments
Anti-Wrinkle Injections
In suitable cases, anti-wrinkle injections can relax the Depressor Anguli Oris muscle, helping to reduce its downward pull on the mouth corners. Treatment requires careful assessment to preserve natural movement and function around the mouth.
Dermal Fillers
Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers may help support the corners of the mouth and restore volume where age-related changes contribute to a downturned appearance. The approach is tailored to your facial anatomy and desired outcome.
HIFU
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) may help improve skin firmness in suitable areas where laxity contributes to changes around the lower face. It is not a direct treatment for muscle activity, and its suitability will depend on the cause of the downturned appearance.
The most appropriate option will depend on your facial anatomy, the underlying cause and your desired outcome. Sarah will discuss the potential benefits and limitations of treatment during your consultation.
