Skin Concerns

Wrinkles

Wrinkles are folds and lines which appear on the surface of the skin as we age. They can occur anywhere, but usually first begin to appear around the eyes, on the forehead and around the mouth.

Wrinkles are folds and lines which appear on the surface of the skin as we age. They can occur anywhere, but usually first begin to appear around the eyes, on the forehead and around the mouth.

Wrinkles are an inevitable sign of ageing. Laughing, concentrating, squinting or frowning; whenever you move your face your muscles contract. After years of frequent contraction, combined with environmental and lifestyle factors – such as exposure to sunshine, smoking or pollution – lines and wrinkles begin to form

As we age, collagen and elastin in the skin begin to deplete, causing it to lose its natural firmness and elasticity.

Royal Mayfair Medical Facial 

There are a number of skin peels at London Skin, designed to brighten and refresh the skin. The treatment involves applying a non-toxic chemical to the surface of the skin to encourage cell turnover and exfoliation. As dead skin cells are removed, skin appears clearer and more radiant and rosacea is improved.  

Anti-Wrinkle injectables

The muscles in your face contract due to a signal sent from the brain via nerves. Non-surgical anti- ageing  injectables work by interrupting this signal, leaving the muscles relaxed and unable to crease the skin. So wrinkles disappear for 3-6months. 

Dermal fillers

For deeper, more established wrinkles, dermal fillers may be considered. Treatment involves injecting a medically developed solution under the skin with a fine needle to plump and fill lines and grooves.They have almost immediate results (from 48 hours following treatment) and last between 6-12months. 

Dermal Needling

Dermal Needling uses small needles to cause tiny punctures on the surface of the skin. These small contact points encourage the body to create a wound healing response and renew the skin cells. As your skin repairs, the production of collagen and elastin is triggered, and lines and wrinkles are softened.

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) Skin Tightening

HIFU uses concentrated ultrasound energy to the face, neck and body by a handheld device.  It is a non-invasive treatment that helps stimulate the cells, resulting in tissue rejuvenation and collagen production. The overall effect of the treatment is to promote tightening and lifting of the skin in these areas.

A HIFU treatment can help stimulate tissue rejuvenation and collagen production – resulting in the tightening and lifting of saggy skin. In the hands of a skilled practitioner, this can produce results akin to facial sculpting (but without the need for surgery).
