Vascular Lesions & Thread Veins

There are many different types of vascular lesions including thread veins, spider naevi, rosacea and angiomas. Many of these can be either completely removed or significantly improved using the Fotona laser with dramatic results.

How does it work ?

The Fotona laser works by immediately shrinking the capillaries to provide instant cosmetic results.
This happens because the energy from the laser is readily absorbed by blood in the vein which destroys the vein wall and shrinks the vessel.

Your body then naturally clears away the tissue just as it does with any bruise so it clears.

Expected Results

Smaller lesions will often disappear immediately. Some will leave a brown/grey colour over the vein for a few days which will then fade and disappear.

Occasionally there can be some redness and bruising at the treated site, this resolves very quickly, but does vary from person to person often depending on how easily you bruise in general.

Fotona Laser SmoothEye®.

SmoothEye® significantly tightens loose and aging skin of the eyelids and periocular region with little to no downtime

What is Smooth Eye?

SmoothEye® is a new and exciting treatment for tightening of the periocular region and reducing the appearance of periorbital wrinkles. SmoothEye® significantly tightens loose and aging skin of the eyelids and periocular region with little-to-no downtime and maximum comfort, making this a very sought after non-invasive cosmetic procedure.

• Immediate freshness and tightness of the periocular area
• Stimulates collagen remodeling and initiates neocollagenesis
• Little-to-no downtime
• Gentle, fast and non-invasive
• Safe and precisely controlled

How many Treatments Will I Need?

3 treatments 4 – 6 weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. Most clients have no down time however some may experience minimal redness or swelling after treatment along with some dryness of the skin. Some clients have a noticeable improvement either immediately or after a week due to the tightening of existing collagen.

The second phase of improvement is between 4-8 weeks as it takes that length of time for your new collagen to be produced, this is the more significant result. Improvements will build with additional treatments and even after the treatment series is completed you will continue to see ongoing improvements for up to 9-10 months due to collagen and elastin regeneration.

Fotona Laser Skin Resurfacing

Recent developments in laser technology are now delivering a longer lasting and scientifically proven method of restoring the natural beauty of the skin.

What is Skin Resurfacing?

Recent developments in laser technology are now delivering a longer lasting and scientifically proven method of restoring the natural beauty of the skin. Unlike traditional treatments such as dermabrasion and chemical peels, the unique characteristics of laser skin resurfacing allow more accurate and precise control over the treatment process.
Skin resurfacing and rejuvenation treatments can be performed either in ablative modes (deeper peel) or non-ablatively, depending on the particular aesthetic outcome that you and your therapist wish to achieve. In addition, ablative and non-ablative treatments can also be combined into a comprehensive anti-aging treatment.
• Deep and lasting rejuvenation of the skin
• Stimulates the body’s natural rejuvenation process
• From light touch-ups to deep, age-erasing optical peels
• Minimal downtime (non ablative)
• Natural results
• Scanner technology for resurfacing larger areas
• Fast and effective treatment
• Ablative skin resurfacing can have up to 10 days downtime, with a normal reaction we expect peeling and redness of the skin

Fotona Clearsteps®

Fotona’s ClearSteps™ is a revolutionary method for treating onychomycosis (toenail fungus).

What is Fotona Clearsteps® ?

Traditional treatments for fungal toe nail infections can involve months of topical treatments and filing, often with little benefit. This patented laser treatment is an easy and effective way of managing this tricky problem.

This laser treatment is a simple procedure that uses laser light to evenly heat throughout the depth of the affected nail and skin tissue. This weakens and kills parasitic fungi which have infected the nails.

How many Treatments Will I Need?

You will notice the new nail as it grows through will be clear of the fungal infection that caused the previous thickening and discolouration of the nail. A fully clear nail is dependent on how fast your nails grow but an average cycle is around 9-10 months.

The ClearSteps™ treatment is usually performed four times, at one week intervals. All of the nails are treated during every treatment as well as the skin around the nail bed. This effectively eradicates the fungal infection.

Nightlase®

Nightlase® is a leading-edge laser procedure for the treatment of snoring. It is non-invasive, no appliances, simple way of reducing or elimating snoring.

What is Nightlase®?

Snoring occurs when air is not able to move freely through your nose and mouth during sleep. This is due to a narrowing of your airway, which causes the tissues to vibrate and make an audible sound. Most treatments for snoring attempt to keep the breathing passage open. Nightlase® uses laser energy to heat the tissues of the airway causing a tightening effect which helps to keep your airway open. The procedure is short and comfortable, requires no anaesthetic and you can resume your daily routine immediately afterwards.

How many Treatments Will I Need?

Nightlase® is performed with approximately 3 treatments spaced over two months. Results are often seen after the first session.

Fotona Acne & Rosacea

laser light safely penetrates into skin to effectively target overactive sebaceous glands and to reduce the risk of developing new acne inflammation.

How Does it Work?

For Active Acne

Fotona’s laser treatment reduces acne inflammation through photoselective absorption and controlled heating effects. Fotona’s high powered Nd:YAG laser safely penetrates the skin to an optimal treatment depth to thermally and selectively destroy overactive sebaceous glands.

In addition to its thermal penetration effects, the Nd:YAG acne laser treatment also accelerates the healing process and stimulates collagen remodeling, an important step in the long-term treatment of acne.

Gentle & Effective Acne Scar Revision

For treating problematic acne scars, Fotona’s Er:YAG laser wavelength is ideal for gentle ablative scar revision. The Er:YAG laser safely and effectively provides the minimal penetration depth required for light resurfacing of acne-scarred skin, helping to improve skin texture and tone. Unlike chemical peels and dermabrasion, laser skin resurfacing allows the penetration depth to be precisely controlled. The laser gently vaporizes micron-thin layers of the acne-scarred surface to reveal healthy, undamaged skin below. Laser resurfacing is a fast, safe and simple procedure.

Rosacea

There is an immediate shrinking of the capillaries which provides an instant cosmetic result. Laser light is readily absorbed by the haemoglobin in red blood cells which breaks them down allowing the collapsing of the superficial capillaries. The laser then addresses the spots/ bumps/boils and uneven skin associated with rosacea and reduces this followed by treating the background redness and pigmentation.

Fotona Laser 4D® Facelift

Fotona 4D® is a ground breaking non surgical facelifting procedure resulting in a rejuvenated natural looking appearance. This treatment is ideal if you are looking for a non invasive, safer anti-aging option.

What is Fotona 4D®?

This treatment uses the cutting edge, patented advancements of Fotona lasers to give incredible results without downtime.

The Fotona 4D® treatment strengthens collagen and lifts the skin by collagen contraction. New Collagen production is also stimulated, resulting in tightness and increased elasticity of your skin. The synergistic laser treatments treat both the exterior of the face as well as the interior oral cavity to produce results from both inside and out.

Treatments have the ability to be tailored to the individual allowing versatility in the procedures and treatments, giving incredible skin tightening results which are natural as it has stimulated your own collagen to tighten and plump the skin.

The overall result is tightening, volumising and restoring collagen to the face which reduces the depth of the nasolabial and marionette lines (the lines from nose to lips, and lips to chin), and helps restore lip volume. The treatment will also improve your skin tone and texture.

• Tightening and volumisation without the need for fillers or toxins
• A full lifting treatment from the inside out
• Immediate rejuvenation, tightening and glow
• Improved skin complexion
• Little or no downtime
• No surgery, needles or anesthesia

How many Treatments Will I Need?
We recommend 3 treatments 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. There are some noticeable minor improvements after a week but the greater improvements are 4-6 weeks after the first procedure, improvement will build with additional treatments and even after the treatment series is completed you will continue to see ongoing improvements for up to 9-10 months due to collagen and elastin regeneration.

Wrinkle relaxing treatments

We offer a variety of wrinkle relaxing treatments which can be discussed during your consultation

What Are Wrinkle Relaxing Treatments?

We offer a variety of solutions to combat wrinkles and signs of ageing, including: injectables, skin boosters, facial peels, medical grade products and microneedling. We recommend coming in for a free consultation to discuss which wrinkle relaxing treatment will be the best option for your concerns.

How Does it Work?
As we age, our skin loses its natural elasticity. Many anti wrinkle treatments boost the production of collagen and elastin to rejuvenate the skin. At the Face our ethos is natural and youthful, facial aesthetics at its best is only noticeable to you. Everyone else will notice how much “fresher” you look and great for your age!

What Areas Can Be Treated?

The most common areas are:

Forehead and Frown Lines
Crows Feet
Under the Eye
Mid Cheek
Smoker Lines

Other areas can be treated – speak to Chrissy during your consultation and she can recommend the best course of treatment.

Profhilo

Anti-ageing skin care treatment that stimulates the body to to produce its own elastin and collagen. Rejuvenates skin and reduces wrinkles.

What is Profhilo?
Profhilo is a Bioremodelling technique that acts directly onto skin laxity. It produces great results by lifting and tightening the skin that becomes looser and thinner as part of the ageing process.
It is composed of a highly pure grade hyaluronic acid that is heat treated and stimulates the body to produce its own collagen and elastin. Unlike regular dermal fillers, it treats loose skin and improves sagging by tightening wrinkles rather than just filling them.

How Does it Work?
It nourishes the dermal cells and restores both firmness and skin tone to remodel your look. Profhilo is one of our most popular treatments at The Face, due to its amazing results.

How Long Will it Last?
We recommend that you have two treatments, 4 weeks apart. Chrissy Says “After 4 weeks, my patients should see an improvement in fine lines and tightness of their skin. After 8 weeks there’s is definite lifting and tightening of the skin. It is more youthful and will have better hydration. Results should last 6-9 months.”

Does It Hurt?
Profhilo should not be painful and does not require any anaesthetic

What Areas Can Be Treated?
Profhilo can be used to treat skin laxity in the following areas:
Cheeks, jowls, neck, arms, hands and décolletage

During & After Treatment
The treatment takes about 30 minutes, and you can return to work immediately. Tiny bumps/bruises may occur at the injection site but should diminish within 24 hours. We will give you a full list of do’s and don’ts & after care advice, but if you are concerned about anything, please call us.

Threadlifts

Redefines facial contours, tightens sagging skin. Ideal for jowls.

What are PDO Threads?
PDO thread lifts make use of the latest technologies in cosmetic contouring, offering a non-invasive answer to tired, ageing skin without surgical intervention. By stimulating the body’s natural production of collagen and elastin beneath the surface of the skin, PDO thread lifts offer an immediate boost in plumpness and uplift, whilst reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

How Does it Work?
PDO (Polydioxanone) threads are used to lift any part of the face, including the forehead, cheeks, jowls, jawline and neck. They have collagen stimulating properties and are re-absorbed by the body over time leaving tighter skin. It is an answer to tired looking ageing skin, without having to go through a surgical procedure. There are different types of threads that work well in different areas, and naturally you will have lots of questions which we can answer during your consultation

How Long Will it Last?
You can expect to see an immediate lift to the treated area. The results continue to improve as your skin produces collagen and elastin. The results of the treatment last about 18 months.

Does it Hurt?
Topical and local anaesthetic is administered so the treatment should not be painful

What Areas Can Be Treated?
Jawlines, drooping cheek areas and heavy eyebrows. Thread lifts also offer an answer to the signs of ageing by improving the skins tautness and glow.

During & After Treatment
The treatment takes 60-90 minutes and starts with topical and local anaesthetic being administered to the area. You should be able to return to work immediately, although some small bruising may occur at the injection site and we recommend that you don’t do any vigorous exercise for a couple of weeks after the treatment. We will give you a full list of do’s and don’ts & after care advice, but if you are concerned about anything, please call us. Results are immediate and continue to improve over time.

Dermal fillers

For lines that appear at rest. Gives volume and hydration for lips, cheeks, tear troughs and nose to mouth lines.

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal Fillers are made up of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance found in the skin that gives volume and hydration. When we age, the levels of hyaluronic acid decrease and the skin begins to lose its firmness and fullness. In addition to providing volume, they can improve the hydration of the skin from the inside out. Not all hyaluronic acids are the same, each brand has a range of ‘tissue tailored’ products designed for specific results. One size does not fit all. At The Face we only use high quality fillers that have undergone years of research. The type of filler that is suitable for you, will be assessed at your initial consultation.

How Does it Work?
Hyaluronic Acid dermal fillers are a clear sterile gel in a syringe for injecting into the skin providing instant correction for lines that appear at rest. Hyaluronic Acid attracts and binds water in the skin, providing volume and hydration, but also cushioning and supporting collagen and elastin fibres. At The Face we are aiming to enhance your natural look.

How Long Will it Last?
Depending on the area treated and the product used the results will last for 6-12 months.

Does It Hurt?
We apply a topical anaesthetic to the area so the treatment should not be painful.

What Areas Can Be Treated
Lips – We can give a natural and rejuvenated look by adding volume to thin lips, Correcting asymmetry and creating definition to help with smokers lines or loss of the vermillion border.
Cheek – The cheeks are a key area for rejuvenating the face. As we age we often lose volume due to fat loss and collagen reduction which makes the face look flatter. This treatment can create more prominent defined cheekbones and volumes the cheeks.
Tear Trough – Tear Trough Fillers helps to reduce the “tired look” which are the hollows under your eyes with darker circles.
Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty -Nose filler can even out bumps, straighten and correct nose shape without the need for surgery.
Chin & Jawline -Chin filler can lengthen and enhance the lower face to create a more balanced profile. Jawline filler can enhance the chin and jowl area, resulting in a more defined & prominent jawline.

During & After Treatment
The treatment takes about 30 minutes, but your full appointment length will be longer so we can apply some topical anaesthetic to the area. You will see immediate results, although sometimes a little bit of swelling will naturally occur & some bruising is possible. We will give you a full list of do’s and don’ts & after care advice, but if you are concerned about anything, please call us. We will ask you to come back for a review 4 weeks after your treatment so we can assess the results. You can return to work immediately, although we recommend that you don’t massage the area or apply make up for 12 hours and avoid extreme temperatures & alcohol for the rest of the day.

Cutislift

Cutislift combines radio-frequency with microneedling technology to stimulate collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid beneath the skin.

Cutislift combines radio-frequency with micro needling technology to stimulate collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid beneath the skin. Tightens, lifts and smooths skin and is an ideal treatment for the neck.

What is the Cutislift?
CUTIS LIFT combines radio-frequency with micro needling technology to stimulate collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid beneath the skin. The superfine gold-tipped needles target the deeper dermal layer, transforming cells to give tighter, smoother and younger-looking skin after just one session.

How Does it Work?
The unique cold hammer handle is used to reduce pain and swelling after treatment. This works by contracting blood vessels, tightening the capillaries and greatly improving pore size. It strengthens collagen fibers, leaving skin plumper and more elastic, smoothing wrinkles and crow’s feet, and works to reduce varicose veins, floating tendons and venous reflux, purifying and detoxifying to improve desalination and the elimination of spots.

What Areas Can Be Treated?

  • Rejuvenates Face & Neck
  • Brightens & Lightens Dull Skin
  • Non Surgical Facelift
  • Reduces Signs of Fine Lines and Wrinkles
  • Reduces Acne Scars & Other Scars
  • Smooths Stretch Marks
  • Acne

How Does Cutislift Treat Acne?
CUTIS LIFT’s radio- frequency, insulated needle acne pen is unique and can treat all types of active acnes and pimples. It is especially effective at treating recurring acne, and can be used on all areas including the chest and back. Traditional treatments such as exfoliation, medication, LED or laser are focused on skin damaged by acne but often only solve problems temporarily. With CUTIS LIFT, the acne pen destroys the root of the acne ensuring no recurrence.

During & After Treatment
Treatments are safe on all skin types and there is minimal downtime. The treatment is not painful, with single use treatment heads for every client. We recommend 3 treatments, 6 weeks apart for optimum results, but there is a visible difference after one treatment.

Skin Boosters

Skin boosters are generally hyaluronic acid based solutions that are injected to improve appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in specific areas, such as under the eyes and smokers lines

What are Skin Boosters?
Injectable skin boosters are generally hyaluronic acid based solutions that are injected into the skin to improve the appearance of skin on your face, by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. They provide optimal results due to their ability to work from the inside out, stimulating your body to make its own collagen and elastin.

Hyaluronic acid is used as it’s a potent natural moisturising factor naturally found in skin, muscle and joints. Its ability to draw 1000 times its own weight in water into the skin makes it ideal for binding and retaining water molecules.

Skin Boosters are ideal for use in specific areas of the face such as:

1. Forehead
2. Crows Feet
3. Under the Eyes
4. Smoker lines
5. Hands
6. Décolletage
7. Neck

Which Skin Booster is best for me?
Here at The Face, we use different skin boosters, according to your areas of concern. Everyone is different and everyone will suit a different skin booster.

During your complimentary consultation, Chrissy will ascertain which type of skin booster will work best for you.

Viscoderm Hydrobooster
We are delighted to be one of the first clinics to offer Hydroboosters to our clients. Developed by IBSA, who produce Profhilo, Hydraboosters offer a dual effect of hydration and stretching on superficial wrinkles. Ideal for treating crows feet, forehead and perioral lines. Reduces the effects of skin ageing and wrinkling as an alternative to toxin anti-wrinkle injections.

We recommend two treatments, 2 months apart

Sunekos
Sunekos is an injectable treatment that targets specific areas of concern including dark circles under the eyes and “smokers lines” above the lips. A patented formula of Hyaluronic Acid and Amino Acids, it stimulates the production of Collagen and Elastin, enabling Extra Cellular Matrix regeneration and restoring the skins natural elasticity and volume.

Sunekos is a course of 3 treatments, 2 weeks apart

Beautifeye

A holistic treatment delivered in clinic and at home, specifically developed to target fine and fragile skin around the eyes.

What is Beautifeye?

The skin around the eyes is particularly fine and fragile. We blink up to 15,000 times a day, we laugh and squint in the sun, so fine lines can form quickly. Slower circulation to this area also accentuates dark circles and puffiness. The Beautifeye protocol specifically targets this difficult to treat area. Focusing on maximising hydration and improving overall skin quality we can help to reveal and restore your eye contour’s natural radiance.

What Happens During The Treatment?

The Treatment has a 3 step process

Step 1

We apply a peel by FILLMED Laboratories that will target uneven skin and pigmentation disorders around the eye. It is adapted to sensitive skin.

Step 2

We inject into the upper dermis the revitalising NCTF® compromising hyaluronic acid and 59 active ingredients (vitamins, amino-acids, antioxidants…) with the very precise and safe NANOSOFT needle that will reduce the risk of bruising and minimise pain during the injection.

Step 3

Soothing B3 Recovery cream and eye recover mask completes this protocol at home.

Does The Treatment Hurt?

There is very minimal discomfort for the treatment. Nanosoft needles are specifically designed to minimise pain and trauma. Injections are only made superficially. We recommend a course of 3 treatments, 2 weeks apart. Directly after the treatment you will have small bumps at the injection site, which normally subside within a few hours.

For Men

Facial Aesthetics and Skin Care is not just for women. Find out more about our popular treatments for men.

Facial Aesthetic Treatments are becoming increasingly popular amongst men……you just wouldn’t know because it’s one of the best kept secrets! At The Face, you will be visiting a clinical environment where our priority is to make sure you feel comfortable with the treatments we recommend for you and discretion is guaranteed.

What are the areas most commonly treated in men?
Men are commonly concerned with frown and forehead lines, double chins/undefined jawlines and facial redness or scarring. However, their main concern is keeping a masculine look, or perhaps more definition to achieve a chiselled look.

Are the treatments the same as for women?
No! Although the treatments and products used are the same, men have stronger muscles and tend to have thicker skin, so it is important to receive treatment from a professional who understands the difference between treating men and women.

Which treatments would be right for me?
Your individual treatment options will be discussed with you at your free consultation, with no obligation, but detailed below are our popular treatments for men.

Frown & Forehead Lines

Strawberry Lift

The Worlds 1st Laser for double chins with instant painless results.

What is the Strawberry Lift?
Double chins are a common complaint that can be tricky to shift and hard to hide, but now the revolutionary new non-invasive Double Chin Reduction Treatment by Strawberry Lift will banish double chins and give you a smoother and more toned jawline. Thanks to the innovative laser application, double chins can be a thing of the past in just four treatments.

How Does it Work?
The clinically proven, non-invasive laser treatment penetrates the skin to selectively target the fat cells underneath, leaving blood vessels, nerves and other tissue undisturbed. When the fat cells absorb the energy from the lasers they release water, glycerol and free fatty acids. The harmless fat cell content is then removed from the body through lymphatic drainage, giving results that get better over time.
Additionally, ultrasound helps to gently tone the jaw line causing the tissue protein to coagulate and produce new collagen

How Long Will it Last?
Results last 18 months. Due to the natural ageing process, maintenance treatments may be required.

How Many Treatments are Required?
Results will be seen after the first treatment, however a course of 2-4 treatments is recommended with 2 week intervals. Maintenance treatments can be scheduled 3-6 months after completion of a full course if required.

Does it Hurt?
You will experience zero pain and zero discomfort. During the laser process you will feel a comfortable warming feeling in the treatment area, which has been known to make some clients fall asleep.

During & After Treatment
Treatment time is 30 minutes, although a longer appointment is scheduled for your initial consultation. There is no down time and you will be able to return to your normal activities straight away. After your treatment it is essential to perform a minimum of 20 minutes cardiovascular exercise to retain the results. We also recommend that you avoid extreme heat for 24 hours and no sun exposure for 48 hours after treatment. Any other laser treatments, including hair removal should be avoided throughout the Strawberry Lift Course. We will give you a full list of do’s and dont’s & after care advice, but if you are concerned about anything, please call us.

Hayfever Injections

Kenalog injections for the treatment of severe Hayfever, that is resistant to alternative treatments.

What are Hayfever Injections?
Hayfever is caused by your immune system reacting unnecessarily to pollens. The season can be many months depending on what you are allergic to. For many people it causes significant fatigue and problems with concentration and alertness. A small percentage of people do not respond to conventional, easily available treatments like anti-histamine tablets, nasal sprays and eye drops. Many of these people consider a Kenalog injection to help them get through the season.

How Do They Work?
Each Kenalog injection contains Triamcinolone acetonide 40mg/1ml. The principal effect of corticosteroids is to reduce the body’s inflammatory & allergic response and they are used very commonly for many serious medical conditions. Kenalog is officially licensed for the treatment of severe Hayfever in the UK.

Benefits & Treatment
A Kenalog injection helps many people with their symptoms of severe Hayfever. For many people it completely relieves the symptoms for the entire season and for others it reduces the severity to a point where adding other treatments can allow life as normal. Occasionally a second dose of Kenalog may be needed, but it is not recommended to have more than 80mg (2 injections in one season). Kenalog is an injection that is injected into the buttock (gluteal) muscle. The skin surface is thoroughly cleaned prior to the injection, which takes a few seconds and is not very painful.

Side Effects
Kenalog injections like all steroids can cause unwanted side effects although these are rare at the dose levels that you get from a Kenalog injection. These possible side effects, that will be discussed with you during your consultation, should subside after 3 weeks.

This treatment is only suitable if you have tried other medication available

Fat Dissolving Injections

What Are Fat Dissolving Injections
Many of us are concerned with areas of excessive fat on the body and face that are hard to shift, no matter how much we exercise, or follow a healthy eating plan. Fat Loss Injections can help those stubborn pockets of fat without undergoing invasive surgery such as liposuction.

How Does It Work?
The treatment targets fat deposits and permanently dissolves them using fine injections. Scientifically proven Pluryal products are used for different areas of the body. FaceContour for dissolving fat on the face and neck & Body Contour for dissolving fat on the body.

For optimum results, we recommend a course of three treatments, one month apart. However, in some cases, not all three treatments may be necessary. Visit us for a complimentary consultation to see if the treatment would help the area you are concerned with.

For non-hormonal hair loss, PRP is combined with Pluryal Mesoline ANTIOX which contains antioxidants, amino acids and minerals designed for the treatment of non-hormonal hair loss.

Does It Hurt?
No. The method we use has little to no discomfort .

During & After The Treatment
To be able to extract the PRP from your body we will need to collect a small amount of blood from your arm, similar to a routine blood test. The blood is then placed in a centrifuge that spins the blood at high speeds which allows the platelets to separate from the other blood cells.
Along with the PRP, the Pluryal® products are then delivered to the affected area through a series of painless injections.

The whole procedure takes approximately 60 minutes
There is no downtime and minimal treatment after this treatment. We advise that you do not use any products on the treated area for 24 hours post treatment to ensure the area is kept clean to reduce any chance of infection.

Microblading

Microblading is a technique used in permanent cosmetics to create natural looking eyebrows.

What is Microblading?
Microblading is a technique used in permanent cosmetics to create natural looking eyebrows. Using a small specially designed ‘blade’ to imitate natural eyebrow hairs, microblading creates fine crisp hair strokes that look natural but gives you the shape you’ve always desired.

How long does it last?
Everyone’s skin is unique to them, therefore acts differently so it can vary. Typically you will need a colour boost every 12-18 months, however some may be able to go longer and some not as a long.

At your initial consultation your permanent cosmetics technician will discuss longevity with you.

Does it hurt?
Topical anaesthetic is applied to make the treatment as comfortable as possible.

Would Microblading be right for me?
Microblading is suitable for almost anyone. Whether it be that you’ve over plucked in the past or have uneven shape or sparse brows that won’t grow. It’s also suitable due to medical reasons such as alopecia. Great for reducing the time you spend applying make up or boosting your confidence! We offer a free consultation to discuss whether the treatment is right for you with no obligation.

Will my eyebrows be perfect immediately after the treatment?
The first thing to remember is that eyebrows are sisters not twins! Saying that, time is spent before the treatment commences discussing with you desired shape and drawing on a template to ensure they are as symetrical as possible before making it permanent.

You also need to take into account healing time, your eyebrows will look darker than expected at first and tiny scabs form as the skin repairs itself.

You will be required to have a top up appointment 4-6 weeks after the initial treatment, at this appointment your permanent cosmetics technician will assess if there needs to be any additional hair strokes placed, if the colour needs to be darker and if any strokes are uneven in colour. Therefore, be prepared that in total it may be 12 weeks before you see the final outcome.

During & After the treatment
Expect your treatment to take around 2 hours in total. We are trained by and use the award winning KB Pro, which offer high quality, pharmaceutical pigments for long lasting and even colour in a huge variety of shades to match you perfectly. We will give you detailed after care advice, but if you are concerned about anything, please call us.

Zo skin care

Advanced skin care products for every day skin care maintenance to skin problems such as acne and pigmentation

At The Face we are proud to be registered and qualified to prescribe ZO Skin Health and ZO Medical skin solutions for our clients.

What is ZO Skin Care?
Zo Skin Health Inc is a highly innovative and progressive health and therapeutic skin care company founded by Dr Zein Obagi.

How Does it Work?
When over the counter products are applied to the outer surface of the human body, they do not pass through the dermal-epidermal junction of the skin barrier. Zo products contain highly active ingredients that pass through the epidermis and work effectively deep within the dermis. Over the counter products typically address the skin surface and symptoms without improving cellular function or overall skin condition. ZO products are based on highly active ingredients that improve the function of the skin as well as being advantageous in preventing premature ageing.

What Can Be Treated?
Every Day Skin Care Maintenance
Acne
Rosacea
Ageing (Fine Lines & Wrinkles)
Oily Skin
Sun Damage & Age Spots
Hyperpigmentation

Zo Medical Consultations
Zo Skin Health believes in the philosophy of turning skin inside out rather than quick fixes. All our staff at The Face are ZO trained to advise on every day skin care maintenance using the ZO Skin Health products. Zo Medical products can only be prescribed by aesthetic doctors due to their powerful active ingredients. All our clients will receive a tailor-made skin care regime, so if you are interested or would would like to book a consultation please contact us.

Skin Tag & Blemish Removal

Cosmetic procedures such as skin tags, milia and cherry angiomas are no longer being treated by many doctors on the NHS. With cryotherapy, we can offer you this treatment in our clinic.

What is Cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is a fast, effective safe and new solution for the removal of skin imperfections. The Cryotherapy device is both CE and FDA registered.

How Does it Work?
It emits a fine jet of Nitrous Oxide under high pressure which allows the clinician to work with millimetre precision. This destroys the tissue by freezing the inter-cellular fluid, forming ice shards and crystals which rupture the membrane, thereby destroying the cell. That means there will be no collateral damage to healthy tissue. It’s so incredibly accurate.

What Can be Treated?
Cryotherapy offers the ideal treatment for:
Skin Tags
Solar Lentigo
Age Spots
Milia
Cherry Angioma

Does it Hurt?
There will be a pain sensation similar to a stinging nettle on the skin when the Nitrous Oxide reaches the bottom of the area. There might be a little residual stinging for a few minutes after the treatment, this is normal.

During and After Treatment
After an initial consultation to ascertain suitability for the treatment, the applicator is held as close as possible to the skin imperfection and moved quickly towards and away from it. This could be from 1-30 seconds, depending on the size and depth. Cryotherapy is a relatively low-risk procedure. It delivers a freeze directly to the area, and not the healthy surrounding tissue. The treated area may go darker over a few weeks, but will return to normal pigmented skin in about 6 weeks. We will give you a full list of do’s and don’ts and aftercare advice, but if you are concerned about anything please call us.

Mesotherapy & Microneedling

A skin rehydrating and rejuvenating treatment. Reduces wrinkles and can be used under the eye area.

What is Mesotherapy?
Mesotherapy provides the skin with a cocktail of vitamins, minerals and amino acids to rehydrate the skin and repair imperfections.

How Does it Work?
Mesotherapy promotes the production of collagen and elastin, stimulating the skins metabolism. It gives the skin a boost to look brighter, feel firmer and fade the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Mesotherapy has been used for decades to target cellulite and fatty tissue, it also improves blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, combined with helping skin elasticity it is an ideal treatment for stretch marks and acne scarring.

How Long Will It Last?
Results of Mesotherapy are expected to last for 12-18 months

Does it Hurt?
A topical anaesthetic is applied to the area so the treatment should not be painful

What Areas Can Be Treated?
Mesotherapy can help any part of the face or body including fine lines under the eyes and nose to mouth area.

During & After Treatment
A series of micro injections are applied at the epidermal layer of the skin. The treatment takes 30-60 minutes depending on the area that is treated and you should be able to return to work immediately. Small bruising may occur at the injection site and we recommend you drink plenty of water and lead a healthy lifestyle to enhance the results of your treatment. We will give you a full list of do’s and don’ts & after care advice, but if you are concerned about anything, please call us. The results are quick and long lasting.
