Tighten up

With summer in our sights, now is the time to lift, tighten and contour your way to a smoother silhouette, as well turning back the clock on sagging jowls and skin.

CoolTech Fat Freezing is a totally non-invasive treatment which targets fat cells, whilst leaving the surrounding collagen and elastic fibres unharmed. By creating a temporary vacuum or ‘freezing’, fat cells are destroyed and then eliminated via the body’s own natural lymphatic system. It can be used to treat the tummy and love handles, hips, inner and outer thighs, knees, arms, buttocks and back fat.

Even with a careful diet and exercise, stubborn pockets of pesky fat can be hard to remove. Velashape III combines three modalities – vacuum, bi-polar radio-frequency and infrared light to heat low lying collagen and elastic fibres which reshape and model the body contours. Localised circulation is increased, cellulite is visibly reduced and there is a reduction in the circumference of the area being treated. It also helps to relieve aches and pains and has a noticeable lifting effect.

Endermologie treatment involves the use of rollers and suction which get to work on softening tissue, increasing circulation, breaking down fat and eliminating accumulated water to tone and firm the skin, reduce the appearance of cellulite and smooth away lumps and bumps giving a more refined silhouette.

If you are looking for something stronger, VASER Lipo is an alternative to traditional liposuction with much less downtime or recovery and with fewer risks involved. Known as ‘Lunchtime Lipo’, VASER can be carried out in a short time and is useful for targeting stubborn pockets of fat such as back rolls, tummy pouches and saddle bags. It can also be used to carefully sculpt the body, giving more youthful contours.

Exilis Elite uses ultrasound and controlled heating to heat collagen fibres deep in the skin causing collagen remodelling and skin tightening. The heating effect also stimulates lymphatic drainage and localised metabolism which has a detoxifying effect, as well as a reduction in fatty deposits. It can be used almost anywhere on the body including the face where it is excellent at reducing sagging jowls and giving a lifted appearance.

The award winning EndyMedPRO 3DEEP Radiofrequency Skin Tightening treatment is a relaxing, pain-free treatment which has an immediate and long-term tightening and lifting of the face and neck and can even be used on the delicate skin around the eye area to reduce under-eye sagging and improve the contour of the eyes. Wrinkles and lines are reduced, skin is tighter, and the jaw area becomes more defined.

Turn back the years in minutes with the Clear Lift Laser Facelift, a no-downtime, no-pain facial rejuvenation treatment which creates tiny areas of controlled damage to the skin, stimulating the natural healing and rejuvenation processes. The treatment helps to reduce fine lines and wrinkles as well as pigmentation and melasma. Skin is tightened and lifted and left with a more youthful glow. Get ready for the compliments!

Our skilled therapists and medical team can advise the best treatments for your specific needs and create a tailor-made treatment package to achieve your body goals.

Getting back on track

There’s been enough time since the new year for good intentions to have slipped away, so to help you get back on track and achieve your body goals, we have rounded up some of our best-loved fat-blasting and energy boosting treatments.

Prolon, the fasting-mimicking diet, is an excellent way to lose weight and keep it off. Through a carefully studied nutritionally balanced plant-based diet, the body undergoes the many benefits of fasting without any loss of nutrition. Fasting has been shown to help a number of metabolic pathways, including a reduction in inflammation and oxidation, a decrease in fasting glucose and helps in weight loss and management. An excellent way to re-boot your body whilst loosing weight and feeling good.

Our Vitamin IV Infusions are ideal for giving a boost to the system and have been designed to target different aspects of your well-being – to increase your energy, to lift your mood, to hydrate your body and to help promote weight loss.

Velashape III is the third generation of non-invasive body contouring treatments which works by combining infrared light, radiofrequency and vacuum to break down fat, reduce the circumference of the area being treated, improve lymphatic drainage and elimination of water, and lift and tighten the skin. Results can be seen immediately, leaving you with a feeling of well-being and calm. Velashape can be used on most difficult areas including saddlebags, thighs, knees, arms, tummy and back fat.

Cool Tech Fat Freezing works to destroy fat without damaging surrounding tissues. By creating a temporary vacuum around the fat cells, they are destroyed and then eliminated by lymphatic drainage. The treatment can be used on the tummy, back rolls, thighs, buttocks, hips, knees and arms, and is pain-free. An excellent way to say goodbye to those stubborn pockets of unwanted fat!

For a relaxing and highly beneficial treatment, we thoroughly recommend Ballancer Pressotherapy Lymph Drainage. This impressive treatment is perfect to help reduce cellulite and minimise fluid retention. It helps to release and remove toxins from the body and promote weight loss as well as giving an overall sense of well-being and calm. You are left feeling lighter, calmer and less fatigued. It works by controlled compression which aids the lymphatic system and is a comfortable and relaxing treatment.

Winter skin damage SOS

Winter can really take its toll on our skin – cold external temperatures and central heating as well as over indulgence during the festive season can leave skin de-hydrated, irritated and inflamed. It is therefore even more important to keep up a good skincare regime with the best treatments and products to protect and repair.

We love the Jan Marini WOW peel which uses an effective combination of glycolic acid, retinol, vitamin C and peptides to slough away dead skin cells, promote skin cell turnover, plump and strengthen the skin and help reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Skin tone is improved and it is smoother, more hydrated and radiant. An ideal post-holiday treatment that provides long-lasting benefits.

The Guinot Hydradermie treatment is an excellent treatment for calming and soothing skin using a combination of a light galvanic current with massage and active ingredients to lift, calm and hydrate the skin. Oil secretion and break-outs, a problem especially associated with this time of year, are reduced and skin is more balanced. The perfect trouble-shooter treatment!

In recent years, our understanding of the positive benefits of stem cells has led to the development of a number of treatments and products to help protect and repair the skin. Our VIP O-PLACENTA Stem Cell facial works in combination with daily use of the stem cell products to deliver bio-active stem cells to the dermis of the face where they stimulate collagen, glycoproteins and elastic fibres in order to strengthen and help re-model the skin, minimizing lines and wrinkles and improving the texture and tone of the skin. An excellent regime to start the year for glowing and healthy skin.

Light therapy has long been heralded as a skin saviour, and our Demalux LED therapy is no exception. Red light accelerates the natural healing processes of the skin to reduce lines, wrinkles and scars, as well as strengthening and hydrating the skin. Blue light is excellent to help combat acne, rosacea, psoriasis and inflammation, providing an anti-bacterial blast to help heal and soothe skin. Infrared light helps the absorption of both blue and red light as well as strengthening the skin. In addition, light therapy is a deeply relaxing treatment which leaves you with a sense of well-being and calm.

To lift a sagging face and provide a subtle rejuvenation without undergoing surgery, the Thread Lift might be the perfect new year gift to yourself. Using bio-degradable threads which are carefully inserted, the skin is lifted without the need for invasive surgery or tell-tale scars. Facial contours are restored and skin tone and texture is improved, leaving you with a more youthful and rejuvenated face. Our expert medical team ensure that the procedure is carried out to the highest standards with the optimum result for you. Speak to our team today to see if you are an ideal candidate for Thread Lift.

For a quick and highly effective boost to the skin, body and mind, try a Vitamin IV Infusion. Choose from a range of different options to suit your needs from an anti-ageing super-boost to a detox special as well as an infusion to help with weight loss. The infusions deliver a potent dose of vitamins, minerals and amino-acids directly into the blood stream, the levels of which can easily be depleted through stress, excesses and illness throughout the winter months. Many patients notice an immediate improvement in their well-being and skin.

We wish you a happy, healthy and radiant New Year!

Say goodbye to sagging skin

As we age, levels of collagen and elastin fibres in our skin gradually deteriorate and we notice the tell-tale signs of ageing such as sagging or lax skin and the increase in lines and wrinkles. As well as having a healthy, anti-oxidant rich diet, not smoking and minimising sun exposure, there are also a number of treatments which can help to stimulate collagen and elastin within the skin, to tighten and lift and therefore reduce sagging.

EndyMed Pro3Deep Radiofrequency skin tightening is an excellent non-invasive, no downtime and no pain treatment which works to tighten existing collagen and stimulate the production of more. Skin is lifted and tightened as well as refreshed. EndyMed can be used all over the body, including the delicate eye area, thanks to the innovative iFine hand-piece which allows the therapist to work close to the eyes resulting in smoother, tighter skin, a reduction in sagging of upper and lower lids, as well as a less hooded appearance. EndyMed is also perfect to reduce jowls and sagging cheeks.

Another non-surgical answer to help combat ageing eyes is the use of the Accor Plasma Pen which creates tiny amounts of controlled damage over the area, stimulating a highly effective healing response which increases collagen levels, tightens and lifts the skin, reduces wrinkling and sagging and results in a refreshed, brighter, more open and youthful appearance of the eyes.

If you are looking for a quick ‘lunchtime’ fix, the ClearLift Laser Facelift is the ideal treatment to take years off your face in minutes. The laser creates tiny ablative areas which then kick start the natural healing process of the skin, resulting in lifting, tightening and firming of the skin, as well as a reduction in pigmentation and wrinkles.

The award winning Exilis Elite is a must for those looking to tighten lax or sagging skin. Using a combination of high energy, mono polar, radio frequency and ultrasound, Exilis works below the surface of the skin to cause deep thermal heating, which causes collagen fibres to contract and new collagen fibres to be produced. This contraction causes a tightening and lifting effect, as well as rejuvenation. The heat also increases local metabolism, resulting in a break down of fat and fatty deposits. It can be used on the face and all over the body. A true winner!

Velashape III is the perfect non-invasive treatment for body contouring and lifting. Using a combination of vacuum, infra-red and bipolar frequency, Velashape causes a deep heating of fat, connective tissue and collagen fibres. This helps to increase circulation and lymphatic drainage to eliminate fluid, break down fat, and speed up collagen deposition. The new collagen helps to tighten and lift skin, giving an overall reduction in circumference as well as a firmer, more youthful appearance of the skin. No wonder it is a firm favourite!
