At a certain time of year especially around the colder months, you may notice that your skin is paying the price. This could be your face, neck, hands, decolletage or even underarms, if the skin is appearing crepy, dull and beginning to show signs of ageing including fine lines and wrinkles, then a Profhilo treatment may be the perfect solution!

What is Profhilo?

Profhilo is the ultimate hydration and rejuvenation treatment. It is a skin remodelling treatment that contains one of the highest concentrations of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) available on the market! Hyaluronic Acid is a water-attracting substance, that provides much-needed hydration to the skin's upper surface. Water is not created by Hyaluronic acid, instead, it attracts water from deep within and releases it into the skin for the ultimate skin hydration! 

What happens in a Profhilo Treatment?

Consultation

Firstly prior to any Profhilo treatment, you will visit one of our expert cosmetic doctors for a bespoke consultation. This is a chance to discuss your concerns and desires, as well as an opportunity for the doctor to assess any potential medical contradictions as well as to determine if Profhilo is the most suitable treatment for you!

Skin Prep - Cleanse and Mark

It is important to cleanse and prep the skin prior to any Profhilo treatment as this is an injectable treatment, cleansing the skin is a must! This removes any make-up or impurities that may be on the skin, ensuring these do not cause any infection to the injection site. 

Now it is time to mark the skin! When Profhilo is injected into the face it is placed into 5 points that need to be mapped out prior to the Profhilo treatment. This is done using a cosmetic pencil and each point is chosen by your doctor in relation to achieving the maximum results. 

Profhilo Injections

The doctor will then begin to inject the Profhilo into the mapped out site. The Profhilo injections are a quick and easy process, clients may feel a slight prick when the needle is inserted, and often you can feel a slight stinging as the Profhilo disperses under the skin. The doctor will then massage the Profhilo injection site to ensure that the product has been distributed under the skin evenly. This whole Profhilo treatment can take around 30 minutes* including cleansing and aftercare. 

Once all the injections have been administered, the doctor will then re cleanse the skin and apply a medical grade SPF to ensure no UV damage is endured on the injection site. 

How long does Profhilo take to work?

We recommend having two Profhilo treatments, four weeks apart. You may notice some skin hydration and slight plumping around two weeks after your first Profhilo treatment. However, the maximum results are visible a couple of weeks after your second session. This is because the Hyaluronic Acid has had a chance to attract hydration and in turn, rejuvenate and plump the skin. We advise a top-up after six months after your second Profhilo treatment to ensure that your results are maintained. 

Is Profhilo Safe?

Profhilo was founded in Italy in 2015, and it has been in use worldwide ever since. Over 300,000 patients have been treated so far, with no severe reactions reported. There can be mild side effects such as redness, slight pain and even swelling but these are temporary. From a safety point of view, it is made from ultra-pure, natural hyaluronic acid and stabilised without chemical cross-linking agents; this reduces the risk of adverse reactions, so the downtime is minimal.

The Obagi Blue Peel Radiance is one of our most sought-after chemical peel treatments. It is a straightforward, quick and effective way to achieve great skin. The Obagi Blue Peel Radiance is a superficial peel for gentle exfoliation and rejuvenation. 

How often can you do the Obagi Blue Peel?

Some clients have the Obagi Blue Radiance Peel as a one-off to refresh the skin or control breakouts, this is great for clients who want fast skin rejuvenation, unclog pores or an instant glow. 

However, as it is a superficial peel a course of 3 to 6 treatments every 2-4 weeks apart is recommended to see the dramatic results or to treat skin conditions. For example, as a chemical peel for acne or a chemical peel for hyperpigmentation, you would need at least 3 treatments to combat these concerns.

How much does the Obagi Blue Peel cost?

Our Obagi Chemical peel is usually priced at £110 per peel or a course of 3 for £270.

We currently have a deal on a singular Obagi Blue Peel NOW ONLY £80 - this offer is only valid when booked in February 2022 so act fast to avoid disappointment!

What is PRP?

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is a natural treatment that is not only a great solution to hair loss and skin rejuvenation. But is also an extremely effective solution to under-eye concerns such as circles, puffiness and undereye bags.

PRP is used by taking a small amount of blood from the client, this is then placed into a centrifuge which separates a valuable platelet-rich plasma that when injected into the concerned area triggers the bodies natural healing response. This strengthens collagen and elasticity which results in a refreshed, rejuvenated and youthful appearance.

Am I suitable for PRP?

You may be suitable for PRP undereye treatment if you have one or more of these following concerns

• Dark, tired and sallow looking eyes
• Fine lines and wrinkles around the under eye
• Loose skin below the eye
• Under-eye puffiness.

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) treatment could be the perfect solution to your under-eye concerns!

PRP is an effective treatment for the under-eye area as it increases blood vessel growth and strengths collagen promoting a refreshed and youthful appearance. 

New blood vessels in the under-eye area allow nutrients and oxygen into the skin, resulting in a decrease of puffiness and loose undereye skin is tightened. 

For PRP Facial Treatment we recommend a course of 3 treatments, one month apart. A top-up is then offered 6-12 months after to upkeep desired results.

Are you due your dermal filler top-up? Or perhaps there is a Dermal Filler treatment you've always wanted to get...

Well now is your chance, with £50 off Dermal Filler treatments in October 2021. (T&C applies).

Clients are often visiting us in the clinic searching for a treatment that will rejuvenate their entire appearance. Say hello to Dr Leah’s Thread Lift.

What is a Thread Lift?

A Thread Lift is a treatment performed by our senior expert cosmetic doctors. Dr Leah has performed the most thread lifts in the whole of the UK and is credited as the ‘Best thread lift doctor’ in the UK!

Our thread lifts are bespoke to each client ensuring completely transformative yet natural results. Imagine a facelift without going under the knife!

This Thread lift (Silhouette Soft Thread Face Lift) uses bi-directional absorbable threads to lift your facial skin. The thread lift also can be used to lift jowls, nasolabial folds, marionette lines and even the eye areas!

What is a silhouette soft thread lift?

The silhouette soft is a brand of thread, it is a dissolvable stitch that produces the very best results for a thread lift. This thread is an especially effective thread for not only lifting tissues but also producing and stimulating collagen. Resulting in a natural lift without making you look too plumped or unrecognisable!

The Silhouette soft thread is a thin thread that contains tiny cones, these allow the thread to attach to the deep tissue of your face which in turn lifts to your desired result.

What happens in a thread lift treatment?

Firstly, you will begin with a bespoke consultation. The point of the consultation is to ensure that your thread lift desires are not only listened to but achievable, we aim for natural results which make our clients feel youthful and comfortable. The treating doctor will ensure that your concerns are listened to and will discuss your desired results. Thread counts can range from 1-10. Understanding what you are aiming to achieve aesthetically is vital at this stage.

Next, the doctor will mark out the areas that the threads will be inserted. Ensuring that the correct areas of the face and or neck are going to be lifted appropriately.

The doctor will then ensure you are efficiently numbed via local anaesthetic at the insertion points to ensure the thread lift is as comfortable as possible and then will begin treatment.

The thread lift treatment is relatively straightforward, you shouldn’t be in any pain throughout and it lasts around 45 minutes depending on how many threads you are having.

Once the threads are fully inserted they are then tightened. This is when you can begin to identify the results. After a thread lift you may experience bruising and even puckering of the skin, however, this is extremely common and downtime should not last longer than 10 days*
*downtime can vary between patients.

Do thread lifts work?

The short answer is yes! If you are looking for a natural and subtle way to refresh and anti-age your appearance, then a thread lift could be the perfect treatment for you. It is a wonderful alternative to the facelift without the pressure of going under the knife. It is also a great way to pre-empt your look before committing to permanent threads. Thread lifts are sought after for multiple reasons, including lifting jowls, raising hooded eyes and giving your face and neck that much needed lift to reveal a younger and firmer appearance!

Below are some of the incredible before and after images of thread lift results in our clinic!
