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.

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!

Tear Trough Filler.

Do you have hollow under eyes or dark circles? Tear Trough could be the perfect treatment for you.

Some people are born with darker pigmented under eyes with a more sunken appearance. For others, this can develop with age due to the elasticity and thinning of skin becoming more noticeable as you get older. Usually, the fat from the cheeks lowers into the middle of the face, revealing more obvious depressions of the eye. Resultingly, a tired/aged appearance.

What is Tear Trough Filler?

The area from your inner eye tear duct, to the point just above the cheekbone, is referred to as your 'tear trough'. If this section of your eye is particularly dark or sunken this can allow for a shadow to hit below your eye - often known as dark circles.

Tear trough treatment uses a dermal filler that contains Hyaluronic acid (HA), which is already present in our bodies. This substance attracts water which means it gives an extremely hydrating effect to the applicated area. When applied to the tear trough this results in a hydrated, 'awake', and freshened appearance.

Tear Trough filler also has a plumping effect that fills the sunken areas of the undereye. In turn, this diminishes any shadows projected onto the undereye, which means no more dark circles! Yay.

What is the treatment like?

The Tear Trough procedure itself is straightforward. We use a cannula as opposed to a needle, this means we only have to use one insertion point ensuring the treatment is as comfortable as possible. Using a canular vs a need also minimises downtime, reducing bruising and prevents the chances of anything going wrong! The treatment itself is fast and non-invasive meaning that you can have both consultation and treatment on the same day. Dependant on your suitability.

We use premium filler products within the treatment, we believe you get what you pay for when it comes to specialist dermal filler treatments. For the tear trough, we use the best fillers for the appropriate area with the safest profiles.

All of our expert cosmetic doctors can perform Tear Trough dermal filler. Below are some dazzling Tear Trough results we have had within the clinic!

What are the benefits of Profhilo?

What happens in a Profhilo Treatment?

At the Dr Leah Clinic, we will always ensure a bespoke consultation before your Profhilo appointment to confirm that you are suitable for the Profhilo treatment. It is also to ensure that this is the correct treatment for your concerns. Once this consultation has taken place with our expert cosmetic doctors, the Profhilo treatment can begin.

Profhilo is a series of micro-injections that are inserted under the skin, you may feel a slight stinging sensation when the injections go in, to avoid any concerns of pain we offer numbing cream and suggest taking two paracetamol before appointment providing no contraindications. Profhilo treatment is a relatively quick procedure with minimal downtime. 

How many Profhilo sessions do I need?

You will need two sessions of Profhilo 4 weeks apart. You may begin to see gradual improvement of your skin after those four weeks. However, it is usual to see results after the second Profhilo session.
