Our Face
Aged Eyes
Volume loss, skin laxity and gravity cause the eyelids to heavy/drooped and hooded.
Learn More
Neck/Chest wrinkle and aged skin
Ageing of the neck and chest occurs due to loss of volume, collagen and elastin fibres around the tissue. This is accelerated by sun damage and lifestyle factors, such as smoking.

Chin Reshaping
A very rewarding area to correct. Many people have a small chin compared to their face, it may be receding or has lost volume.
Learn More
Enlarged Pores
Many treatments are available in cosmetic dermatology to tackle enlarged pores.
Learn More
Jowls
Jowls are formed when fat, that was once sitting higher within the face, falls as a result of ageing and gravity. Together with skin tissue changes, it makes the jawline heavier and appear weaker.
Learn More
Jawline Contouring
With time the fat travel downs the face causing the jawline to look fuller and as collagen breaks down within the skin the jawline looks weaker.
Learn More
Nose To Mouth Lines
Nose to mouth lines are formed as we lose volume. Fat pads underneath the skin reduce and separate, moving downwards creating a naso-labial fold.
Learn More
Nose Reshaping
Fillers to correct the nose shape can be the perfect non surgical option. Careful placement of the right type of filler in the right place can make a dramatic difference.
Learn More
Mouth Restoration
As we get older, we lose volume in our face and our mouth gradually starts to take a downwards appearance, which can look ageing. Lifting techniques - like Dermal Fillers/Re-volumisers - can restore this for a more youthful look.
Learn More
Oily Skin
Oily skin can cause local inflammation, leading to blockages, congestion and acne. It can look dull and bumpy rather than smooth and radiant.
Learn More
Under Eye Pigmentation / Hollowing
Under eye pigmentation / hollowing is often due to a number of causes interacting with each other. As we age the bone within the orbit starts to absorb and the fat pad supporting the skin lessens and falls causing hollowing +/- eye bags. There may be a genetic component too.

Yellow Areas on Eyelids (Xanthelasma)
Xanthelasma are hard yellow patches around the upper and lower eyelids. Sometimes it is representative of raised fats in your blood.
Learn More
Wrinkles
Facial wrinkles are primarily caused by a combination of ageing, sun exposure and the gradual breakdown of collagen and elastin in the skin.

Excessive Sweating
A lot of individuals are troubled by localised excessive sweating. It may be situational and appear around the time of a meeting or event, or your may suffer from it all the time.

Hands / Feets
The hands and feet are often overlooked. As we get older the skin here tends to become more dehydrated, and repeated pressure can cause it to accumulate around pressure areas, known as a callous.
Learn More
Hard Skin Elbows / Knees
All skin types can be affected by hard skin on the elbows and knees. In particular, patients with skin of colour often suffer with this because the skin around these areas are dry, have been hardened and thickened and darker over time.
Learn More
Ingrowing Hair
Ingrowing hair, otherwise called razor bumps, is often caused by thick coarse hair becoming coiled underneath the skin. This causes blockages, inflammation and redness or dark marks called post inflammatory hyper-pigmentation. It can occur on any hair bearing area.
Learn More
Keloid / Raised Scarring
Many people are troubled by raised scarring. Usually a preceeding event has occurred causing inflammation (such as a bite, acne, a burn or trauma) and this triggers the skin to to increased collagen fibres in that area.

Lumps and Bumps
The most common lumps and bumps that bother patients are skin tags and benign moles.

Scalp / Hair Problems
Alopecia areata is often triggered by stress, and occurs as a result of auto-immune problems of the follicle. It can be treated and controlled through multiple injections of an anti-inflammatory to dampen and reduce the immune issue.
Learn More
Acne
Acne is one of the commonest facial problems. It consists of localised inflammation and blockage around the sebaceous glands. Often it will start around teenage years when the oil glands become reactive and stimulated by hormones.
