Skin Care Treatments
At a face-to-face appointment we carry out a full skin consultation, where we address all the skin concerns you have. We will ask you if we can take some photographs that will only be held on your medical record, this is so we can show you the before and after photographs, following your treatments. We may prescribe you a treatment package for you to use at home, or we may suggest a treatment in our clinic. You may wish to go away and think about our recommendations, this is fine, you are under no obligation or pressure, we work with you, at a time that is right for you.
We offer a range of treatments and products for your skin concerns. These include:
Anti-wrinkle treatments
These are our most popular treatment, where the muscles in the area of the forehead, frown lines and crows feet areas are relaxed to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Hyperhidrosis
We are able to provide treatment to address perspiration issues of the axillae, palms, and for the feet.
Dermal Fillers
As we age there is a change in facial shape, this treatment is able to replace that lost volume, or can address specific areas of concern. Areas that can be volumized are lips, cheeks, as well as marionette lines, and nasolabial folds. We use the Juvederm range of dermal fillers, these contain hyaluronic acid.
Chemical Peel
Skin looks smoother and clearer when the dead skin cells of the top layer of the skin are removed. This treatment involves the application of a peel solution, tailored to your needs and requirements, and this works to remove the dead cells, and this treatment can successfully treat skin concerns such as acne scars, pigmentation and rough, dry or uneven skin. This treatment can be used in combination with micro-needling to help with deep static lines. The effects build up with use, and a course of 1-3 treatments may be suggested on a regular basis, every few months, to maintain the effects
Micro-needling
At Aesthetics Plus we use the Skinpen, this is an FDA approved device that , over the course of three treatments, can improve your facial complexion, improve dyschromia-melasma, vitiligo and sun/age spots, improve the appearance of wrinkles on the neck, and improve the appearance where acne scarring is present. This device works by creating temporary microscopic channels in your skin, which stimulates the body’s natural healing process, to increase collagen and elastin production. This is the only ultrasonically sealed device on the market, and each treatment uses a single-use cartridge, ensuring patient safety.
We offer a dermoscopy service for any moles/lesions you are concerned with. This involves us using a dermatocope to inspect and take a photo of the lesion that can be forwarded to your GP.
