What Is Volume Enhancement?
Facial volume changes are a completely normal part of life. Over time, cheeks can become less defined, lips may thin, temples can hollow, and the under-eye area might develop shadows. Genetics, lifestyle, and the natural ageing process all play a role — and everyone’s face changes differently.
Volume enhancement treatments aim to restore lost fullness or sculpt and define facial contours for a more balanced, refreshed appearance. Some people come to us to address changes they’ve noticed over time, while others simply want to enhance features they’ve always wanted more definition in.
During your consultation at Equinox, your practitioner will assess your facial structure, discuss your goals, and recommend the most suitable approach for your concerns.
Treatment details and pricing are always discussed during your personalised consultation, so the advice you receive is tailored specifically to you.
Why a Consultation Matters
Facial volume is more complex than most people realise. The right approach depends on your bone structure, skin quality, existing volume, and what you’re hoping to achieve. What works beautifully for one person may not be ideal for another — and that’s exactly why a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work here.
Your $50 consultation (fully redeemable if you go ahead with treatment) gives you time with your practitioner to:
- Assess your facial anatomy and areas of volume change
- Talk about your goals — whether that’s subtle or more defined
- Explain suitable treatment options and realistic outcomes
- Discuss potential risks, side effects, and aftercare
- Leave with a personalised plan and clear pricing
It’s your time to ask every question you have. No pressure, no rush.
Areas We Treat
Everyone’s volume concerns are different — and so is every face. Here’s a closer look at the most common areas people come to us about, and what might be possible.
Lip Enhancement
Lip enhancement is one of our most requested consultations — and for good reason. Whether you want subtle definition, added fullness, improved symmetry, or to restore volume that’s changed with age, your practitioner will tailor the approach to your lip shape and facial proportions.
We focus on natural-looking results — lips that suit your face, not a one-size-fits-all look. If you’ve ever worried about looking “overdone,” your consultation is the place to talk through exactly what you’re after and see what’s realistic.

Tear Trough Treatment
Dark circles and hollowing under the eyes can make you look tired even after a great night’s sleep. Tear trough treatment aims to restore volume to this delicate area, reducing the appearance of shadows and hollows.
This is one of the most precision-demanding treatments in cosmetic practice, and not everyone is a suitable candidate. In some cases, alternative approaches like skin treatments, lifestyle adjustments, or simply leaving the area alone may be the better option. Your consultation will include a thorough assessment of the under-eye area and an honest conversation about whether this is right for you.
Chin Enhancement
A well-defined chin creates balance across the face. Chin enhancement can improve facial proportions, strengthen a receding chin, or create a more defined profile — all without surgery.
Some people come to us specifically for their chin, while others discover during a consultation that chin definition is the missing piece in their overall facial balance. Your practitioner will assess your chin projection, jawline, and overall proportions to recommend the most suitable approach.
Jawline Sculpting
If your jawline isn’t as defined as it used to be — or as you’d like it to be — jawline sculpting can sharpen and contour the lower face, creating a more structured appearance. It may help address a soft or poorly defined jawline, mild jowling, or facial asymmetry.
This treatment works well on its own or in combination with chin enhancement for comprehensive lower face definition. Your practitioner will talk you through the options during your consultation.
Cheek Enhancement
Cheek volume is one of the first areas to change over time, which can cause the mid-face to flatten and contribute to nasolabial folds (smile lines). Restoring cheek volume can lift the mid-face, improve facial contours, and create a more refreshed appearance.
Some clients find that addressing cheek volume also softens the appearance of smile lines and under-eye hollows without needing to treat those areas directly — your practitioner will assess the full picture.
Temple Treatment
Temple hollowing is an often-overlooked change that happens gradually. As volume in the temporal region decreases, the upper face can appear more hollow, losing its definition. Restoring temple volume creates a smoother transition between the forehead and cheeks, contributing to a more balanced overall appearance.
Most people don’t think about their temples until a practitioner points it out during a consultation — and then they can’t unsee it.
Nose Enhancement
Non-surgical nose enhancement can address concerns such as a dorsal hump, asymmetry, or a drooping tip — without the downtime of surgery. Initial results are visible straight away, though the final outcome develops as any swelling settles over the following days. Your practitioner will explain realistic timelines during your consultation.

Facial Volume & Definition
Will It Look Natural?
This is the most common concern we hear — and it’s a completely valid one. At Equinox, our philosophy is enhancement, not transformation. Your practitioner will work with your natural facial structure to create results that look like you, just refreshed.
We take a conservative, build-as-you-go approach. It’s always possible to add more volume gradually, but it’s important to start with a subtle, balanced result and adjust from there. If you’ve seen results online that looked “too much” — that’s exactly what we work to avoid.
Your consultation is where this all starts. You’ll have an honest conversation about what’s achievable, what’s realistic, and what will actually look good on your face.
Am I a Good Candidate?
Volume enhancement may be a good fit for you if you:
- Notice facial volume changes in your cheeks, temples, lips, or under-eye area
- Want to improve facial proportions or symmetry
- Seek a non-surgical option with minimal downtime
- Have realistic expectations about achievable results
It may not be suitable if you:
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding
- Have an active skin infection in the treatment area
- Have certain autoimmune conditions (discussed during consultation)
- Are under 18 years of age
Your practitioner will confirm suitability during your consultation.
What is facial volume enhancement?
Volume enhancement restores lost fullness or sculpts facial contours in areas like the lips, cheeks, jawline, chin, temples, and under-eye area, creating a more balanced and refreshed appearance.
Is volume enhancement painful?
Most clients experience only mild discomfort. Numbing options are available and most treatment areas can be treated comfortably in 30–45 minutes.
Will volume enhancement look natural?
When performed by an experienced practitioner using a conservative approach, results should enhance your natural features rather than change your appearance dramatically.
How much does volume enhancement cost in Perth?
Pricing depends on the treatment area and approach, and is discussed during your $50 consultation, which is fully redeemable on treatment.
What’s the difference between volume enhancement and wrinkle treatments?
Volume enhancement restores fullness and contours. Wrinkle treatments address lines caused by muscle movement. They target different concerns and are often combined.
Can I get lip filler in Perth?
Yes — lip enhancement is one of our most popular consultations. Whether you’re after subtle definition, a bit more fullness, or better symmetry, your practitioner will tailor the approach to your lip shape and what actually suits your face. A $50 consultation (redeemable on treatment) is the best place to start.
How long do volume enhancement results last?
Results typically last 6 to 18 months depending on the treatment area, the approach used, and individual factors like metabolism.
What is the downtime?
Downtime is minimal. Mild swelling and bruising are common for 2–5 days, particularly in the lip area. Most clients return to normal activities the same day.
What is a tear trough treatment?
Tear trough treatment restores volume to the hollows under the eyes, reducing dark circles and tired-looking shadows. It requires precision and an experienced practitioner, and not everyone is a suitable candidate.
Can I enhance multiple areas in one session?
Yes. Many clients treat multiple areas in a single appointment, such as cheeks and lips, or chin and jawline. Your practitioner will advise on the most effective approach.
What if I’m not happy with the results?
Some approaches can be adjusted after treatment. Your practitioner will explain all options, including what’s possible if you want changes, during your consultation.
What are dermal fillers?
You’ll hear this term a lot when researching volume treatments — it’s the most common way people describe treatments that restore fullness to areas like the lips, cheeks, and jawline. Because these are prescription-based, your practitioner will walk you through the specific options, what they do, and pricing during your consultation.

Individual results vary. This treatment is not suitable for everyone. A consultation is recommended.
How do I know which area needs volume?
Your practitioner will assess your facial structure, areas of volume change, and proportions during your consultation. Sometimes addressing one area (like cheeks) improves the appearance of adjacent concerns (like smile lines) — so the answer isn’t always what you’d expect.
Is there a risk of looking overdone?
At Equinox, we take a conservative approach. We’d rather you return for a small addition than overdo it in one session. Natural-looking results are always our priority — and your consultation is where we make sure we’re on the same page about what that looks like for you.
How often will I need maintenance?
Most clients schedule maintenance every 6–18 months, depending on the area and approach. Your practitioner will recommend an optimal schedule based on how you respond.
What side effects should I expect?
Common side effects include mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the treatment site, typically resolving within 3–7 days. Less common effects are discussed during your consultation, along with everything you need to know about aftercare.
At what age should I consider volume enhancement?
Volume changes can begin in the mid-20s and become more noticeable from the 30s onward. There’s no “right” age — it depends on your individual concerns and goals. Some people come to us for age-related changes, others want to enhance features they’ve always had.
Can men have volume enhancement?
Absolutely. Volume treatments are tailored to masculine facial structure, focusing on angular definition rather than soft curves. It’s one of our fastest-growing areas for male clients.
What are dermal fillers?
Absolutely. Volume treatments are tailored to masculine facial structure, focusing on angular definition rather than soft curves. It’s one of our fastest-growing areas for male clients.
Can volume enhancement be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Volume enhancement pairs well with wrinkle treatments, HIFU, thread lifts, and bio-remodelling. Your practitioner can create a comprehensive plan that addresses multiple concerns in a coordinated way.
How soon after treatment can I return to work?
Most clients return to work the same day. If treating the lip area, mild swelling may be noticeable for 2–3 days.
Why can’t I see specific treatment details or prices on this page?
Australian regulations restrict how certain cosmetic treatments can be advertised. This is why we discuss specific options, product details, and pricing during your consultation rather than on our website. It’s actually a good thing — it means the information you receive is personalised to you, not generic. Your $50 consultation covers all of this.
Is the $50 consultation fee redeemable?
Yes. The $50 is fully deducted from your treatment cost if you proceed.
What’s the difference between dermal fillers and volume enhancement?
They’re the same category of treatment — “dermal filler” is the consumer term, while “volume enhancement” describes the outcome. Australian regulations restrict how these prescription-based treatments can be advertised, which is why we focus on the consultation and the results you’re after rather than specific product names. During your consultation, your practitioner will explain the exact approach, product options, and pricing.
Is lip filler safe?
It’s one of the most common cosmetic treatments performed in Australia, and most clients experience nothing more than a bit of swelling and bruising that settles within a few days. Like any procedure, there are risks — and we take those seriously. Your practitioner will walk you through everything before you go ahead, including what to watch for afterward. That’s also why choosing someone experienced matters so much — it’s the single biggest factor in getting a result you’re happy with.
