The Orbital Dermabrasion reduces fine lines and blemishes gently and effectively. The LED light therapy neutralises bacteria and reduces redness.

Skinbreeze is a thorough and detailed 3 step treatment using groundbreaking techniques to obtain optimum results.

Hands

Skinbreeze helps diminish age spots on the hands, evens out the skin tone and intensively moisturises hands leaving them looking plumper, smoother and younger looking

A Step By Step Overview

Skinbreeze involves a 3 step treatment which takes approximately 60 minutes in total.

Step 1

Our treatment begins with gentle Orbital Dermabrasion and LED light therapy. We use silicon carbide coated tips which come in three different levels of coarseness depending on your skin type. The orbital microdermabrasion treatment can be used with 20 different speed settings, which means we can tailor its use to the different areas of your skin, and to your skin type ensuring a bespoke treatment and optimum results for your individual needs.

The tips gently exfoliate the skin whilst the blue and red LED lights help the skin recover from the signs of day to day skin damage, ageing and sun damage. The lasers also help stimulate collagen production.

Step 2

Following your Orbital Microdermabrasion treatment we deliver a Skinbreeze serum to your skin using a high pressure O2 infusion technique. The O2 infusion enables the serum to penetrate deeply into the skin, reducing fine lines and wrinkles and producing a firmer, plumper appearance. After this treatment we use an air powered spray gun which delivers a fine mist of hydrating serum to the skin, reviving it, cooling it and refreshing it.

Step 3

The last phase of the treatment is a Skinbreeze Hydro Mask which is placed on the skin for 20 minutes whilst we massage your skin using an orbital ebrasor. The ebrasor gently massages the face encouraging any excess fluids to drain towards the lymph nodes which will reduce any residual puffiness.

If you’re interested in our latest innovative Skinbreeze treatment, please don’t hesitate to give us a call, we’re excited to talk to you about this wonderful new service on offer right now at our Soho clinic.

As women, we all have certain times of the day we feel our best. Some of us are morning people and simply glow in the AM, some of us are night owls and feel the most energetic of an evening. But regardless of how we feel, when do we look our best?

A poll of a thousand women completed by London Premier Laser showed that women look their best at precisely 10.06AM on a Monday morning. Who knew?

The day we all dread, the start of the working week when we’re still getting over our weekend sins is when we hit our beauty peak. Definitely good to know when we’re morbidly sipping coffee questioning our ‘unorganised chic’ office attire grimacing thinking of the week ahead.

The poll showed that:

• 10.06AM is when we’re most likely to get chatting with colleagues at the start of the week
• Women feel their lowest at 4.05PM on a Thursday
• Between 9AM and 11AM is when we’re at our ‘beauty peak’
• 31 per cent of women consider Monday their favourite day of the week (which shows how many of us love our careers)
• 23 percent of us consider Friday our favourite day of the week (no need for explanation there!)
• 72 percent of women like to ‘hit the ground running’ when it comes to their beauty routine

If you’re not a morning person it might surprise you to see you’re at your most gorgeous around an hour after you start work and your least gorgeous in the afternoon.

But if you think about it, by late afternoon most days you’re probably more than ready to go home, coming down from your afternoon chocolate sugar hit and in need of a makeup refreshment. So it actually makes sense.

And by Thursday afternoon when we feel our lowest, most of us have the weight of the week on our shoulders and the poll shows, that it shows in our face.

If you want to glow all the time and don’t want the time of day to dictate your WOW factor, here are three beauty boosting complexion treatments you could try:

The Vampire Facelift

We’ve all heard about it, but who has actually tried it? Well the vampire facelift has proven to be a popular facial treatments at London Premier Laser , why? Because it’s not as grim as it sounds! It only takes up to an hour, uses your own blood, there’s no recovery time and it can lead to smoother, brighter skin. Quick enough to fit into your lunch break on maybe…Thursday?

Vitamin C Rejuvenation Peel

We know vitamin C is good for us, but did you know it’s 20 times better for your skin applied directly than when you eat it? That’s why the vitamin c rejuvenation peel treatment is so popular. It’s basically a gentle exfoliation treatment from London Premier Laser using pharmaceutical grade Vitamin C, Alpha and Beta Hydroxy Acids and fruit enzymes. Sounds great right? It is! It can help with acne, sensitive skin, dry skin, older skin and even Rosacea. Plus, while it’s doing it’s magic on your skin you get a shoulder and scalp massage thrown in – all in less than an hour. Makes the skin brighter, younger looking, more refreshed and the results last up to 6-8 weeks.

Obagi Blue Peel Radiance

Sound exotic? That’s because it is! The Obagi Blue Peel Radiance is so exotic in fact it could give you that 10.06AM Monday morning feeling all day every day for months! It’s a quick, salicylic acid-based peel available from London Premier Laser and is suitable for all skin types, helps with acne scarring, photodamage, melasma as well as contributing to smoother, younger looking skin. Takes up to an hour, has little to no downtime and results can last up to 4-6 months.

So remember, when you’re feeling your worst after a weekend of fun, when the clock hits 10.06AM you might not feel great, but you look fabulous! Want that 10.06AM feeling all day every day? Consider some facial treatments from London Premier Laser.

The Sun has been generously gracing us with her presence this last few weeks and it’s only going to get hotter in May. Us Brits love the Sun and while a lot of other counties take the hot weather for granted we treasure every minute she decides to play out. And why not? The beer gardens fill up, the barbeques come out and everyone wears colourful sunny clothes.

Staying Safe in the Sun

If you are planning to have a bit of a garden party, barbeque or just generally going to spend a lot of time in the sun then you will need to protect yourself from its harmful rays. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause:

• Premature ageing of the skin
• Sunburnt skin
• Dryness and itching
• Eye irritation and cataracts
• Bumpy rashes
• Skin cancer

Although many of us know the dangers of sun exposure, we can get a little lazy when it comes to protecting our skin. Some people ironically even choose to expose themselves to the harmful UV rays to make themselves ‘look healthier’.

So what are the best ways to protect yourself?

Cover Up:

One of the easiest things that you can do to protect your skin is to cover up. Although this is usually the opposite of what many people want to do, it is one of the best methods so stay safe.  The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends wearing hats and clothing made of dark, tightly woven materials as these are better at absorbing the harmful UV rays.

Shade

During the hours of 11:00 – 15:00 when the sun is at its hottest it is a good idea to find some shade from time to time just to cool down and get a little cover before venturing back out into the heat.

Sun Cream

Make sure to apply plenty of sun cream, especially to areas that are not often exposed to the sun on a daily basis. It is recommended that you use a SPF of 15 and above, however the higher the SPF the better protection you will have. Make sure to apply a generous coating – not using enough cream can reduce the effectiveness by up to 50%.

Protect Sensitive Areas

As mentioned above it is especially important to protect sensitive regions. It can be easy to forget areas like the tops of ears, nose, top of chest, hairline and even your feet if you are wearing sandals or going barefooted.

Wear Sunglasses

Long term exposure to sunlight can increase your chances of developing cataracts and directly looking at the Sun can permanently scar the retina. Using sunglasses that block out the harmful UV rays is the best way to protect your eyes.

Don’t Get Fooled

Even though you might not be able to see the Sun due to cloud cover don’t be fooled into thinking that you are not in any danger from Sun damage. Ultraviolet rays can just as easily penetrate clouds and cause harm to your skin.

Remember if you don’t want to look like you have gone 12 rounds with the likes of Mayweather and Pacquiao then make sure to take the necessary precautions above in order to stay safe in the sun.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
