Microdermabrasion is a technique which has been gaining in popularity over the last few years. The technique is used by a number of different treatments, all working in the same general manner.

Improve looks quickly

Microdermabrasion treatments work by encouraging the patient’s skin to produce new cells, resulting in fresher and younger-looking skin. For best results when it comes to clearing the skin, the treatment can be repeated over time. A total of six sessions, with four weeks between each one, is recommended.

It is possible to purchase home microdermabrasion kits that will allow you to perform the treatment on yourself, although these are more limited in their success than clinic treatments; it is recommended that you have the procedure performed professionally.

Eczema specialists

Although eczema is a widespread skin complaint, no two sufferers are entirely alike, so it always pays to consult a specialist when seeking relief from this condition. In some, the eczema will have been present from birth due to a genetic predisposition, yet others will have developed it later in life through contact dermatitis. Symptoms can vary, too, and whereas most will suffer from irritation, itching and redness of the skin, more severe cases will see skin drying, cracking, blisters and bleeding. We employ highly skilled dermatologists to ensure you can receive the best and most appropriate eczema treatments in Richmond.

Dermal fillers can be used for a variety of uses, which should be discussed with your specialist before you proceed.

Plumper lips

Fuller, more defined lips is one of the reasons people consider dermal fillers. The lips can often become thinner as time passes, and people want to regain their youthful complexion.

Dermal fillers can also be used to minimise scarring on the face, restore plumpness, smooth out wrinkles and improve definition of the chin.

What is Dermaroller?

During this treatment a device covered in multiple micro-needles is rolled over the skin to create tiny punctures. This causes it to produce collagen; the elastic fibre that gives skin the firmness and glow associated with youth.

Massively boost collagen up to 400%

The skin naturally contains collagen. However, we experience wrinkles and fine lines due to it degenerating as we age. This is why dermaroller can help; as skin produces large quantities of collagen after a treatment and essentially heals itself, it helps skin to return to a smoother, firmer state. Stretch marks may also benefit from this treatment, as will acne scarring.

How to Treat Cystic Acne Two common ways of treating cystic acne are antibiotics and retinoids. You can get antibioitics on prescription through your doctor, and these will treat the infection. However, the down side is they will not stop the acne coming back. Retinoids, however, prevent old cells from keratinizing whilst encouraging the growth of new cells.  How to Treat Back Acne Back acne can be treated by washing your back with a […]
