Leading Skin, Facial and Body Treatments Clinic in Weybridge

If you have already tried to treat active acne with topical products, to little success, then I have found IPL to be an effective method.  The intense light heats the bacteria that leads to acne both on the surface and deeper in the blocked pores, eventually killing it.

Acne scarring can occur when acne damages nearby skin, which triggers your body’s response that can sometimes replace the original skin with a form of fibrous tissue that leaves uneven texture and scars.

If you have acne scarring that you would like to reduce, I usually recommend EPN Pen treatment.  This combines microneedling and electroporation, to trigger your body’s production of collagen and deliver hyaluronic acid into the targeted area, which helps to break down the fibrous tissue, generate new cell growth, and plump the skin to create a smoother, fresher surface.

There are four types of rosacea, and which one you have will determine the best treatment for you.  The most common is caused by thread veins near the surface on the skin that can be overly responsive to triggers including alcohol, hot drinks, spicy food, changes in temperature, exercise, and stress.  IPL can help reduce the affects of this. Intense light is absorbed by the haemoglobin in the thread veins causing the blood to coagulate and the vessels to break up so they can then be filtered away naturally through the lymphatic system in your body.

Excessive pigmentation can occur as age spots, sun spots or freckles.  IPL is a safe, effective way to reduce or clear these.  The light from the IPL is absorbed by the melanin in the pigmented skin cells, which turns to heat, and causes them to break down.  They are then replaced by fresh new cells, which also help to create a more flawless, youthful, glowing appearance.

IPL, EPN Pen and LPG endermologie can all help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, so we can use the consultation to identify which one is best suited for your personal needs.  The treatments can also help with other skin issues that you may not have considered having treated, so we can consider this extra benefit when discussing which one you would prefer.

Due to factors such as childbirth, menopause, or the body’s natural ageing, the pelvic floor muscles decondition and insufficiently support the pelvic organs, which can correlate with urinary incontinence and other issues. 

The painless BTL EMSELLA treatment uses electromagnetic energy to cause deep pelvic floor muscle stimulation without the need to get undressed. A single BTL EMSELLA session is the equivalent of 11,000 Kegel-like contractions which help you train your muscles without any effort.

Cellulite affects 90% of women and is the result of both fat storage in adipocytes (fat cells) and of water retention.  There are three types of cellulite, and LPG endermologie can help smooth all three of them - by stimulating the blood and lymphatic circulation to address fluid retention and drain toxins, encouraging natural fat release, and softening fibrous tissue.  This all helps to firm the skin and give it back its tonicity and smoothness.

IPL is a safe, effective way to remove unwanted hair. The intense light emitted by the handset is absorbed by the melanin in the hair follicle, which heats the hair follicle and damages it.  The sensation is described as being similar to an elastic band snap.  You can usually expect an 80-90% reduction in unwanted hair after 8-12 treatments, with follow-up treatments helping to maintain results.
