Take a Look At Our Aldgate Clinic’s Pigmentation Treatments

At Premier Laser & Skin, we want you to look your best every day, which is why our clinics offer a variety of different procedures to help make that happen. We wanted to spotlight one common concern that we have many treatments available for at our Aldgate location – pigmentation.

Fighting Pigmentation Issues

Did you know that there are lots of factors that can cause pigmentation problems? The two most common causes are sunlight exposure and hormone changes which can create dark patches on the skin. What’s more, though, is that pigmentation can often be hereditary too. People of Asian descent commonly deal with pigmentation issues more than any other ethnic group. Fortunately, there are several treatments which can provide you with the help you need to deal with your pigmentation issues, including two of our peels at Aldgate.

Cosmelan Peel: This amazing skin whitening treatment can help you reduce the dark spots and patches. This one-off peel is ideal for anyone suffering from deep pigmentation or melisma as it inhibits the melanin production in those problem cells, helping you to shed the dark skin. Following the peel you will be provided with an extensive home care kit to help improve your results in the weeks following.
DermaQuest SkinBrite Peel: A more gentle pigmentation peel, the SkinBrite is ideal for targeting sun spots, age spots and freckles. It works by deeply exfoliating the skin, encouraging the damaged skin cells to shed so that new brighter skin can be revealed. Depending on your pigmentation, a course of up to 6 peels may be recommended by our expert practitioners.

Pigmentation problems can be tough to treat, especially when you’re dealing with heredity issues. At our Aldgate location, though, we’ll help you tackle those pigmentation issues to give you a beautiful and even skin tone. Book your free consultation with us today to discuss your skin concerns.

Lip Fillers: Everything you need to know

Full, plump lips – it’s certainly a sign of beauty, but not everyone has them naturally. Products like lipstick and lip liner can help, but they wear off, and they don’t always offer you the results you really want. If you’re sick of fighting your lips for real results and wasting your money on over-the-counter treatments that can only go so far, it’s time to book your lip filler treatment with us.

What Is Lip Filler?

We use hyaluronic acid to help fill out your lips; our chosen filler is a natural gel that helps flow gently into your skin and instantly offer you the fill you want. It means real definition and very little downtime. You’ll get that perfect natural look within just a few weeks.

What Can I Expect?

If you book one of our lip filler treatments, we’ll schedule an assessment appointment before the actual procedure. On the day of your procedure, we’ll clean and numb the area, then gently inject the filler into the area(s) that need the most help. While you may see some bruising within the first few days of the procedure, it will subside quickly, and you’ll be left with the look you want most.

Follow-Up Treatments

Most patients experience the results for up to twelve months. We can, however, do follow-up treatments within six months if you want more results.

Meet Our Lip Filler Expert!

When you book your appointment with us, you’re going to meet our lip filler expert – Aesthetic Nurse Sarah Sheedy. Sarah has been working with patients for more than seven years, and she’s worked in a number of different settings to help patients achieve the beauty they need. A specialist in today’s hottest dermal fillers, she’s ready for you right now. Book your session today!

HIFU: A Quick Guide

When you see a teenager, what makes her look young? What makes you feel old when you look in the mirror? Often the difference between that teenage face and yours is the sagging skin, and it’s a natural process you can’t always avoid. As you age, your collagen levels diminish, and that means wrinkles and sagging skin that was once only dealt with thanks to a facelift. Now, though, there are new treatments available to tackle that problem and help your skin look as young as it did when you were still in school. It’s called HIFU.

Understanding the Process

HIFU is also sometimes called a non-surgical face lift, and for good reason. It helps to contour your skin and change the way you look on a daily basis. It begins with a comprehensive consultation. On appointment day, we’ll cleanse your skin, then apply a gel. The Ultraformer then be applied to your skin, across the area you’d like to tighten. As it works across your skin, it generates a thermal effect, which helps your body begin to repair the collagen and produce more to tighten the area.

You may feel a bit of bruising and tenderness after the procedure, but it generally isn’t painful. HIFU treatments last anywhere from twenty to forty minutes, depending on how large the treatment area is.

As with many of our other treatments, there is no downtime following your HIFU. You might see slight redness for an hour or so directly afterwards, but you don’t have to worry about a long recovery time.

How Soon Will I Notice the Difference?

Your skin will feel a bit tighter directly after the procedure, however you will see the best skin results after three months. Top-up treatment can also be arranged to enhance the results further in future.

Your Essential Wedding Skin Guide

The big day is coming fast, and you want to look nothing short of amazing. Fortunately, there are a number of things you can do to make that happen, and it starts as soon as you get engaged. Take a look at this skin care guide to help keep you on track to becoming the beautiful, blushing bride you’ve been seeing in your dreams.

A Year Before Your Wedding

It may seem like you have quite a bit of time on your hands, but the reality is that it’s coming faster than you think. One of the first procedures you’ll want to schedule is laser hair removal. If you want to see the maximum reduction in hair growth, it can take up to six sessions, and those have to be spaced at least four weeks apart. Wondering where you might want laser hair removal? Consider how that bikini line might look on your honeymoon. You might also want to finally eliminate underarm hair, leg hair, or even problem facial hair.

Tattoo removal starts as soon as you get engaged too. If you have a tattoo you’re embarrassed about, or simply one you don’t want showing when you don that gorgeous dress, we can help, but it’s going to take some time. Professional tattoos usually take four to six treatments to remove, and treatments have to be scheduled at least six weeks apart.

Acne scarring is one other issue you may want to address right after you get engaged. It will help both your engagement photos and your wedding pictures look fantastic. Dermapen Microneedling is the best way to eliminate the scarring. This innovative treatment pushes the skin to release collagen, which means a complete elimination of the scars you’ve dealt with for so long. Depending on the severity of the scars, though, it may take several treatments to see real results.

Six Months Before the Wedding

Still dealing with acne on a regular basis? That’s the last thing you want your guests to see, and a Spectra Carbon Peel, also sometimes called the Hollywood Peel, you can put a stop to the problem. Regular treatments mean improving your collagen levels and putting an end to acne, but you’ll want to retreat at least once before the big day for best results.

Loose skin may need to be tightened before your wedding as well, and the Ultraformer is the way to make that happen. It targets the deepest layer of skin, which can help lift your eyebrows, deal with that sagging skin on your face or your neck, and even help eliminate wrinkles. you’ll see real results within three months.

Hoping to say “yes” to the dress that doesn’t quite fit now? Cyrotherapy fat reduction is easily the best way to eliminate fat in those problem areas. It uses fat freezing technology to help target the fat cells you find most problematic and break that down. You could see a loss of a few inches within three months after a single treatment.

Three Months Before the Wedding

Hydration is as important for your body as it is for your skin, and our HydraFacial is one great way to make that a reality. It revitalises and exfoliates your skin to give you that natural glow you’ll want to see in the pictures.

Your big day is going to be perfect! Don’t forget to consider an annual package for some of our services so you can maintain those amazing looks throughout the year.

The Supermodel Cheek Lift

Supermodels all have one thing in common; cheekbones that defy gravity! The contoured, defined appearance is one lots of men and women envy, and is the result most desired when it comes to make up. But what if you could achieve this look, without the need for foundation?

The Supermodel Cheek Lift is achieved solely with non-surgical dermal fillers. By applying them high in the cheeks, the area is subtly lifted, contouring the area into a naturally elevated shape. This specialist technique uses dermal filler to create the definition desired and see’s instant results.

Aesthetic Injector Sarah Sheedy explains the treatment;

“By injecting dermal filler gently into the apple of the cheeks you can sculpt the area, subtly lifting the face and contouring the cheekbones. You will see instant results, and downtime is very minimal, which is why it is so popular with my clients!”

To enhance the appearance, our client also opted for a small amount of filler in her lips to reshape and define, rather than plump.

The Supermodel Cheek Lift starts from £499 and is now available at all Premier Laser & Skin clinics. Book your in-depth consultation with Aesthetic Nurse Injector Sarah to discuss your treatment in detail today!

Body Contouring! The hottest new trend

Contouring is a trend that isn’t set to go away for a long while. YouTube is full of tutorials aimed at facial contouring tutorials with a variety of brushes and shades. But what about your body? With spring finally here, people are focusing more on getting their beach bodies, and there isn’t anything makeup can do about that! Enter body contouring as the solution for targeted, beautiful results.

While facial contouring is all about illusion through quality cosmetics, body contouring goes beyond dieting to sculpting the body to your perfect shape. Worried about invasive surgery? There is no need to be concerned. These treatments help you achieve the look you want without the downtime of surgery.

Starting out with healthy diet and lifestyle ensures maximum results; no treatment will ever replace the need to stay healthy. Hydration is also key for a lot of bodily functions, and without proper hydration, sometimes the body will hold onto water, giving you a bloated feeling and look.

Where body contouring helps are areas that often diet and exercise just cannot target – we are talking about your love handles, the inner thighs, stubborn stomach areas, under the top of the arms and the back of your thighs beneath your buttocks. If that is the case, then you would do well to experience Cryotherapy Fat Reduction, which targets stubborn fat cells. Dieting and weight loss can shrink fat cells, but they don’t actually go anywhere. Cryotherapy delivers controlled fat freezing technology to specifically targeted areas, crystalising the fat cells and causing them to breakdown. Once your body processes these fat cells, only the sculpted results are left behind! One treatment results in the permanent inch loss.

Another issue exercise and diet cannot resolve is the issue of loose skin. In some cases, the skin left behind after serious weight loss or due to ageing can be very difficult to tighten. There is no exercise routine that can shrink skin that has been stretched out and many people worry that surgery is the only option to tighten skin. Enter HIFU Skin Tightening treatment. Using ultrasound to penetrate deep into the skin, heat is applied, causing the skin to tighten and leaving a firmer, leaner appearance. No surgery required!

Spring is a great excuse to get the body you really deserve or to sculpt those areas that are just not responding to exercise after all your hard work. No illusions or fancy makeup required!

Red Carpet Ready Skin

There has been a lot of coverage on the most recent Oscars ceremony, with controversy surrounding the nominations and mistakes, however what we were most interested in is how amazing the celebs looked on the red carpet! So how do the men and women of Hollywood get such glowing, red carpet ready skin?

The truth is, though, many celebrities prep to get that glow way before the first slather of makeup accurately applied by their favorite artists; it all starts with skincare, and even the most flawless of complexions still seek out professional help to ensure they look their best on Hollywood’s biggest night. Star treatments offer tricks of the trade that revolve around specialised skin care to fix impurities without damaging the complexion, revitalising tired skin and creating a look that is plump and hydrated so makeup appears flawless.

Getting the glow

Getting red carpet ready is easier for us lesser mortals than it ever has been. Yes, it’s really true! You can have celebrity-worthy skin much faster than you might think. While those of us who don’t have a star on Hollywood Boulevard may not have access to a team of high profile makeup artists, there are several key treatments that provide instant results – with no downtime – just in time for those Oscar after-parties.

Exfoliate and rejuvenate

You can get your glow on with a Hollywood Spectra Peel for instant complexion revitalisation. This rejuvenating, exfoliating treatment also targets active acne (as many other treatments do not). No downtime and that perfect glow will put a bounce back into your step.

Just because a deeper skin issue is a concern doesn’t mean there aren’t effective – and quick – treatments for you. Even skin with acne scarring can have that great facial glow with Dermapen Micro Skin Needling. This precise needle penetration for collagen induction repairs scars, reduces discolouration and offers renewal to tired skin. With this treatment, you will only be a day away from your red carpet awards party! The best part? The results will last much longer than traditional treatments.

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!

To get rid of winter skin and step into a fresh, new you, a HydraFacial offers six treatments in one: next-level hydradermabrasion, chemical peel, automated painless extractions and a cocktail of Antioxidants, Hyaluronic Acid and Peptides. Soothing, refreshing, non-irritating – and immediately effective.
