Anti Wrinkle Injections (Botox)
Anti-wrinkle injections are commonly referred to and Trademarked as 'Botox', short for Botulinum toxin. This is a naturally occurring protein that causes the muscles of the face to relax, consequently smoothing out wrinkles. It is the UK's most popular cosmetic treatment for the removal of wrinkles. Anti-wrinkle injections are generally thought to be the best treatment for the forehead area, frown lines and crow's feet near the eyes.
Botulinum toxin can also be used for a 'brow lift', also known as 'chemical' brow lift which can treat mild/moderate heaviness in the brow which can give the eyes a younger, more refreshed look.
These injections can be used for crows feet, frown lines, smokers lines and bunny lines. These injections are also used in advanced procedures such as for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating in axilla (arm pit) and hands) and other areas such as jawline slimming.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers consist of hyaluronic acid, which naturally occurs within the body and is found in the deep layers of the dermis. One of its functions is to keep the skin smooth and healthy by retaining water.
When we are born, we have lots of hyaluronic acids, and as we age, the enzymes within our body gradually start to disintegrate it. This is what causes wrinkles to deepen, cheeks to lose their volume, lips to become thinner and lines to appear around the nose and mouth.
Dermal filler can be used to improve many different areas such as volume loss upper, mid and lower face such as cheek augmentation and jawline. They can also be used to treat the hollowing under our eyes (tear trough fillers) and can enhance many other areas. Dr Rachael uses many different advance injection techniques to tailor each treatment to you.
While there are many different types of dermal fillers available and there are many salons offering 'cheap fillers', many are not FDA-approved. Dr Rachael will only use FDA approved Teoxane dermal filler.
Fillers-Lips/Peri Oral
Lip augmentation/fillers is an extremely popular treatment which can be used to replace volume loss in older clients or to give fuller, more enhanced lips. They are also effective in reducing lines around the mouth such as smoker's lines, marionettes (corners of mouth) which can make clients feel they look sad and also nose to mouth lines (nasolabial lines).

Profhilo®
Profhilo is a revolutionary 'beneath the skin' hyaluronic acid moisturising treatment. Its a unique hyaluronic acid injectable gel, which has a prolonged stimulating activity on the dermal cells. When injected into skin, Profhilo stimulates the skin cell receptors to counteract skin laxity and improve and restore firmness of the skin.
One of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market, Profhilo not only boosts and hydrates the skin, but also remodels ageing and sagging tissue.
The most common areas of treatment include the face and neck and can also be used for the décolletage, hands, arms, knees and abdomen area where it would effectively treat skin laxity. The treatment is suitable for men and women as well as offering skin benefits for patients of all ages.
Polynucleotides
Polynucleotides are the latest revolutionary tools in regenerative medicine that work on a cellular level to repair tissue and boost skin quality.
In the form of polymerised polynucleotide-based injectable gels, polynucleotides work by stimulating fibroblasts which encourages cell turnover, improves elasticity, boosts collagen production and hydrates skin thanks to powerful wound-healing polymers. Polynucleotides also calm inflammation and rebalance melanocyte activity to create an even and refreshed skin tone.
Dr Rachael uses Dermafocus polynucleotides which have different polynucleotide concentrations for different areas of concern so Dr Rachael can tailor the treatment for you.
