Anti Wrinkle Treatments
Commonly referred to as Botox, anti-wrinkle injections are used to smooth out lines and wrinkles to give your face a fresher, more rejuvenated appearance. When injected in small doses into targeted areas, anti-wrinkle injections block the signals between the nerves and the muscles, causing the muscles to relax which in turn can eliminate unwanted facial lines and deep wrinkles.
The treatment can be done within 30 minutes with minimal downtime.
All new clients must see my prescriber first for a medical health check. This is a 10 minute consultation whereby my prescriber will assess your medical needs and suitability for the treatment. Following this consultation we can then go ahead and book you in on another day for treatment.
Popular areas which can be treated include:
- Forehead
- Frown lines
- Crows feet
- Bunny lines
- Gummy smile
- Smokers lines
- Masseter muscles (teeth grinding)
- Chin dimpling
- Hyperhidrosis (under armpit sweating)
The most common areas treated are the frown/forehead and crow’s feet which are classed as 3 areas. For full effects the results will take up to 2 weeks, a review appointment is given between 14-21 days where we assess the need for any further treatment. Typical results can then last between 3-6 months, this will vary between person, lifestyle etc.

Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers sometimes called soft tissue fillers (contain hyaluronic acid), are substances designed to be injected beneath the surface of the skin to add volume and fullness. Injectable dermal fillers can plump thin lips, enhance shallow contours, soften facial creases and remove wrinkles.
As you age, your body starts to lose collagen. Collagen is an important substance that exists all over your body, including in your skin, muscles, bones and connective tissues. Decreased amounts of collagen in your skin causes skin laxity (loose) and loss of volume. Skin becomes thinner, loses its elasticity and starts to sag.
You may choose to get dermal fillers to:
- Add volume to sagging skin.
- Make your facial features more symmetrical.
- Plump up lips and cheeks.
- Smooth wrinkles and creases in your face.
Areas which we can target include
- Lip Filler
- Cheek Filler
- Tear Trough
- Chin
- Nasolabial / Marionette folds
- Jawline
- 8 point face lift
Fillers are not permanent. How long they last depend on things like the type of filler and where it’s injected. They usually last between 6 and 18 months.
Free Consultations and contour packages are available upon request to discuss your individual needs.

Skin Booster Treatments
What are skin boosters?
Skin booster treatments increase the levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin and also stimulates the production of collagen, which in turn improves fine lines and wrinkles, producing firmer skin. Skin boosters can be used to treat many different skin areas. They are designed to deliver deep skin hydration and help to improve skin complexion and tone leaving you with a beautifully rejuvenated natural glow. Some of the benefits include:
- Deeply hydrates and moisturises the skin
- Plumps the skin
- Improves skin elasticity and firmness
- Reduce dark eye circles
- Reduce skin imperfections such as acne scars
- Boost collagen production and skin renewal
Although both dermal fillers and skin boosters contain hyaluronic acid there is a key difference between them. Fillers are a thicker solution with strong cross links which create volume, lift and contour whereas skin boosters are more water based with the ability to spread moisture hydrating the skin.
Profhilo® is 100% pure injectable hyaluronic acid. It works by engaging the body’s receptors through the unique level of pure HA to induce the stimulation of collagen, the protein that strengthens our skin and gives it structure. Unlike fillers, which are usually concentrated in a specific area, Profhilo spreads out once injected forming a water-binding layer under the skin.
It is administered in just 2 sessions over a period of 4 weeks and disperses quickly across the skin to instantly boost hydration, consequently smoothing fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in improved skin texture. Single treatments are then recommended every 3 months for optimum results.
Seventy Hyal is one of the most affordable newest skin boosters on the market. Seventy Hyal 2000 is a bio-stimulating, injectable Hyaluronic Acid that aims to improve hydration levels within the skin as well as new collagen and elastin. Initially 2 to 3 treatments 4 weeks apart is required to achieve a desired result. Maintenance treatments are then recommended between 6-12 months depending on skin quality.
Cryopen Treatment
Cryotherapy has been used in medicine for many years and offers the most successful, safe, reliable and effective solution for removal of skin imperfections, many clients with less likelihood of scarring or recurrence than some other treatment methods. We can treat:
- Skin tags and warts
- Freckles
- Age Spots and Milia
- Fibroma
- Seborrheic Keratosis
- Solar Lentigo
- Cherry Angiomas
- Verrucas
- Mole removal (requires GP approval)
The superfine applicator is held closely to the skin imperfection and liquid nitrogen sprayed onto the distorted, unhealthy tissue only. This is usually from 1-30 seconds, depending on the size and depth. The legion is then allowed to thaw and return to its natural colour. The process may be repeated in the same session if required.
Prices start from £40.00 for the first lesion.
