Forget facial wrinkles. Apparently when it comes to anti-ageing procedures, feet are leaping their way to the top of the list. The news comes as Teosyal Meso, a dermal filler for the feet, reported a 60% rise in the number of women undergoing treatment to achieve younger-looking skin.
The company says the surge in interest began when supermodels noticed the potential of the £150-a-time injections to plump up their feet and 'protect' them from the effects of wearing high heels. Since then, the popularity of the procedure has boomed. And now with summer in full swing, it claims women are flocking to clinics up and down the country in a bid to step out with wrinkle-free feet.
A spokesman for Teosyal said: "Women are becoming more open to the use of injectibles to ensure lines are plumped and complexions are left visibly younger. Using fillers for the feet is relatively new although as we say our hands give away our age our feet do too and wrinkly feet can certainly let down your appearance. The treatment also works to hydrate the feet leaving them supple and smooth for up to six months."
Based in hyaluronic acid Teosyal is said to be capable of absorbing one thousand times its weight in water, maintaining hydration and strengthening elasticity.
