What is microneedling and how does it work?
Microneedling uses fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin, stimulating your body's natural healing process. This promotes collagen production, reducing fine lines, scarring, and improving skin texture whilst enhancing product absorption for better results.
Are chemical peels suitable for all skin types?
Chemical peels can be tailored to most skin types, but a thorough consultation is essential. We assess your skin condition, sensitivity, and concerns to determine the most appropriate peel strength and type for optimal results whilst minimising risks.
What is mesotherapy and what conditions does it treat?
Mesotherapy involves injecting vitamins, minerals, and active ingredients directly into the skin's middle layer. It's effective for skin rejuvenation, reducing cellulite, targeting localised fat, and treating hair loss, delivering nutrients precisely where needed.
What makes your bespoke facials different from standard treatments?
Our bespoke facials are completely customised to your individual skin needs. We combine various techniques, products, and technologies based on your skin analysis, concerns, and goals, ensuring each treatment is unique and specifically designed for you.
How often should I have treatments for best results?
Treatment frequency depends on the specific procedure and your skin goals. Generally, most treatments work best as a course - microneedling every 4-6 weeks, chemical peels monthly, and bespoke facials every 4-6 weeks. We'll create a personalised treatment plan during consultation.
What should I expect during recovery after treatment?
Recovery varies by treatment. Microneedling may cause mild redness for 24-48 hours whilst chemical peels might involve gentle peeling for several days. We provide detailed aftercare instructions for each treatment.
Can treatments be combined for enhanced results?
Yes, many of our treatments complement each other beautifully. For example, mesotherapy can enhance microneedling results. We'll recommend the best combination approach during your consultation.
