Vaser Lipo Treatment at Selston Cosmetic Clinic - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Before undergoing any cosmetic procedures to remove unwanted fat, you should try to lose as much excess fat as you can. Eating healthily and exercising in the months before Vaser Lipo will make sure that you get the best results possible from your treatment. Before you have Vaser Lipo treatment you will need a consultation, where you'll be able to talk in detail to the doctor about why you want Vaser, which technique he'll use, the length of recovery time and your expected results.

The doctor who's doing your procedure will look at your body to see which areas you're unhappy with and he'll tell you what results you can realistically expect. At the consultation, you can ask to view the portfolio of his earlier Vaser clients, looking at the before and after photos so you can see for yourself the results he has already achieved, and the difference it's made to their bodies.

To prepare yourself and your body for Vaser Lipo treatment the doctor will give you a list of things for you to follow, to give you the best chance for amazing results:

It's a medical fact that smoking slows down blood flow to the skin, increasing the risk of circulation problems after Vaser treatment and this could affect your results. Ideally, it would be better to stop smoking cigarettes altogether, but if you can't manage to do so then it's advisable to quit smoking at least two months before your procedure. If you smoke it can cause poor wound healing, which could make your recovery time longer.

Medications can interfere with your body's blood clotting ability, so it's best to let the doctor know which tablets and supplements you're taking. At least two weeks before your Vaser Lipo treatment you should stop taking any cold and sinus medication, vitamin E tablets, nutritional supplements and non-steroidal inflammatory medication.

If you're having Vaser Lipo treatment on a large area then you should prepare in advance for your recovery time. After your treatment you'll need to arrange time off work, and make sure you put off any physically demanding responsibilities until your recovery is complete. At the start of your recovery, you might need to have someone on hand to give you some help.

Before your Vaser procedure make sure you stock up on the necessary post-procedure supplies, including pain relief medication, compression garments and bandages. If you are living alone you will need a good supply of food, toiletries and pain relief. You don't want to run out of supplies if there's nobody around to help replenish them.

Vaser Lipo is a form of body contouring, which sculpts the body to the desired look. In conjunction with a heathy diet and lifestyle, the results of Vaser are permanent and can last a lifetime.

Vaser Lipo to Remove Fat From the Knees & Thighs - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Diet and exercise will help to lose weight from around the body, but sometimes we might find it difficult to lose fat in specific places and this is when a Vaser Lipo procedure is a good solution. The legs are a popular choice for Vaser Lipo treatment as the unwanted fat usually settles on the thighs before anywhere else, leaving them with lumps and imperfections and making us self-conscious about how we look.

Inner and Outer Thighs

Unevenly distributed fat can settle on the inner and outer thighs which can cause both embarrassment and discomfort when the constant rubbing of the inner thighs leads to sore and irritated skin. For women, the thighs are often key to a shapely figure, but sometimes the outer and inner thighs can look out of proportion to the rest of their body, making it difficult to find clothes that fit properly, which can leave them feeling self-conscious. Vaser treatment on the outer thighs counts as one treatment, and treatment on the inner thighs is another and to get the best results you might need to get both areas treated, either both areas together or during separate appointments.

Outer thighs before and after          //          Inner thigh before and after

Knees

Unfortunately, men and women who already have a slim and toned body can get excess fat on their legs, and this can accumulate on and around the knees. It's unwise to have Vaser treatment on the knees alone, if you also have unwanted fat on the thighs as the result will end up looking out of proportion. Vaser Lipo treatment on the knees acts more as a contouring procedure.

Vaser Lipo on the knees before and after

Vaser Lipo is a gentle, effective way of removing unwanted fat in many areas and removes more fat than traditional liposuction. It's important to keep the body's natural proportions in mind when removing fat from any parts of the body, as this will help to create a silhouette to suit that person's body and shape. After treatment you'll need lymphatic drainage massages and need to wear a compression garment for three to six weeks.

Vaser Lipo on the legs is a highly effective treatment and it can quickly help you get slimmer, more shapely toned legs. Vaser Lipo is a minimally invasive treatment using ultrasound energy which is powerful enough to remove fat from large areas of the body and gentle enough to take fat from small, delicate places like the arms, chin and knees.

Erase Spider Veins With Laser Treatment - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

As the weather gets warmer, that's the time most people want to wear shorts, skirts and bathing costumes, but unfortunately for those with spider or thread veins, the thought of wearing skimpy, more revealing clothes isn't an appealing one. Women of all ages can get unattractive spider veins on the face and legs, they are all too common and can cause a great deal of embarrassment. Until recent years, the only option was to cover the face with make-up concealer and the legs with trousers or tights.

Spider veins are very common, they appear on the skin in a reddish, purple and blue zigzag pattern. Thread veins are often a sign of getting older, because as the body ages, the valves in the veins weaken, and blood can collect, causing the veins to enlarge and become more visible. These veins can appear all over the body, but they are most commonly seen on the legs, face, ankles, feet and thighs. Spider veins are like varicose veins but smaller and they're also nearer to the surface of the skin than varicose veins.

Spider veins on the legs - before and after laser treatment

Patterns of red and blue veins that develop on the face are known as spider or thread veins and usually most women consider them unsightly to look at. Most spider veins don't cause any health problems, they're not painful but they're considered displeasing, especially on the face and many people use concealer to cover them up. So instead of spending large amounts of money on make-up to cover up the spider veins on the face, the good news is that there is an alternative permanent solution.

Thread veins tend to develop as we age, when our skin and blood vessels become less elastic, but they can also be associated with pregnancy, menopause, family predisposition, sunbathing or exposure to wind or extreme temperatures. There's no reason we should put up with unsightly thread veins, when there is such a simple solution to permanently banish those tell-tale signs of ageing.

Facial spider veins before and after laser treatment

The safest, most effective cosmetic medical treatments for leg and facial veins is laser treatment. A laser gets lightly applied to the skin directly above the spider veins, making the vein disappear. The energy from the laser gets absorbed by coloured tissues, such as spider veins, breaking them down. The closed and sealed vein is then dissolved and absorbed by the body. After treatment, the body slowly re-absorbs the veins. A laser treatment takes only fifteen to thirty minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.

Before & After - Six Pack Abs Achieved With Vaser Hi Def - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Recently we've seen a huge change in the way men want their bodies to look. Lots of men who don't have a so-called ideal body, get embarrassed and self-conscious, believing that the less muscled and toned they are, the less masculine they are. Celebrities show off their toned arm muscles and washboard abs in adverts for underwear and aftershave, and with images like these used worldwide on TV, billboards, magazines and on the internet, it isn't hard to see why most men might not feel able to match up to them.

Unfortunately, with our busy lifestyles it means that many of us just haven't got the time to spend hours in the gym trying to maintain a sleek toned body and keep it looking in peak condition. But even those who are fit and healthy can find that sometimes, no matter how much work they put  in at the gym, stubborn areas of fat can linger.

Recently at Selston Cosmetic Clinic we had a client who needed our help. He had lost his excess weight and worked hard at the gym, but unfortunately after all of his hard work it was obvious to him that he just couldn't achieve the definition on his abdomen that he was hoping for.

Before and after vaser hi def

Sometimes we need a bit of extra help and that is where Selston Cosmetic Clinic can help. Vaser lipo isn't a substitute for weight loss, and works it best on men who are reasonably fit but have small amounts of fat that haven't responded to diet and exercise. Vaser hi def is one of the most advanced forms of vaser lipo, creating shadows and curves, to give the impression of muscular definition, giving the body a toned, athletic look.

Vaser lipo benefits;
* Removes those stubborn areas of fat that we can't reduce from exercising and dieting alone
* Vaser lipo can give you definition for an athletic appearance
* It can create a more balanced and proportionate body
* It can increase your body confidence and boost your self-esteem

This client had a rather large tummy and we were not expecting the best of results. His fat was hard and solid and we were just looking to reduce it. Look at the difference vaser hi def, and the correct aftercare has made to his body shape.

Botox Injections To Stop Excessive Armpit Sweating - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Sweating, perspiring, glowing.....call it what you like, it’s a natural bodily function and one of life’s necessities that we all have to put up with. Sweating keeps us cool, but it also helps our body to battle against infection and balances our hormones when we get stressed. When normal everyday sweating becomes excessive, this means that your body sweats more than it needs to. Excessive sweating under the armpits can cause lots of embarrassment, it can limit our social activities, limit the clothes you can comfortably wear and massively affect our confidence and self-esteem.

There are many reasons why we sweat:

Hot weather - We sweat when we get hot or humid weather, and as the sweat evaporates, we cool down.
Illness - We perspire when we have a fever, this is our body's way of fighting off an infection.
Exercising - When we exercise our body temperature rises and to get rid of the extra heat, we sweat.
Menopause - Our body's internal temperature gauge rises when our oestrogen levels drop.
Spicy food - Capsaicin is the compound that gives the heat to spicy food and this makes us sweat.

Severe sweating that we can't control with an antiperspirants, is also known as hyperhidrosis. Worrying about the condition often makes it worse, as once we start thinking about sweating, it then causes us to worry, which can then actually make the sweating worse. Botox is usually used for treating facial wrinkles, but it's also used to treat excessive sweating.

At Selston Cosmetic Clinic we offer botox injection treatment for hyperhidrosis, performed by Dr Bassi who is fully trained in this particular procedure. He uses a very fine needle to inject small amounts of botox under the skin near the sweat glands, which are responsible for excess perspiration and it works by blocking transmission of the nerve impulses to the sweat glands, slowing down the amount you sweat.

Botox benefits for excessive underarm sweating:

• The treatment offers immediate relief
• Excessive sweating and the odour are completely eliminated
• Repeat injections can easily keep up the results
• Unlike with medication, there aren't any negative side effects
• Injectable treatment, non-surgical and no downtime
• More cost-effective than using oral tablets

In most cases the botox treatment for excessive sweating takes effect within a matter of days, and the results can last up to 9-12 months, with repeat treatments often lasting longer. You'll be able to resume normal activities after your treatment, but you should avoid strenuous activities for 24 hours. You might feel slightly bruised in the injection areas for 1-2 days after your treatment.

Re-shape Balance & Define The Face Using Dermal Fillers - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Loss of facial volume is one of the first changes that lead to an aged look on the face. The loss of volume may result from the natural ageing process, or you may notice it when you lose weight, although even those with athletic, slim bodies can experience diminished facial volume, resulting in facial hollows and loss of definition.

There are many techniques that can restore and then maintain facial volume, which will give a youthful, natural appearance. Dermal fillers offer a safe, non-invasive method of correcting volume loss, restoring facial balance, creating symmetry and improving the definition of facial features, such as the chin, under the eyes and cheeks.

Dermal filler used on the tear troughs

Dermal fillers can help :

Lip Enhancement - giving the lips more definition
Lip Augmentation - giving greater volume and a fuller appearance to your lips
Tear Troughs - adding volume and correcting the hollows under and around the eyes
Lip Creases - softening the depth of smokers lines around the mouth
Nasolabial Folds - softening or correcting the deep grooves between the side of the nose to the corner of the mouth
Cheek Enhancement - contouring and enhancing the cheeks, to create higher cheekbone
Jowls Correction - fillers can define the jaw line to create a more defined, attractive line
Marionette Lines - reduces lines that give you a turned down smile
Nose - used to straighten out bumps, lift the tip or improve your nose shape
Chin - filler can define and change the contours of your chin

Dermal filler treatment on the jowls

Everything on the body changes as we get older and the chin is no exception. You may have always been quite happy with the shape of your face, but as you have aged you may notice that your chin has decreased in size and that your jaw line has changed shape. However, dermal filler can easily be injected into the chin, making it seem more prominent or increase the definition. Most women want to have a softer contoured chin, while men prefer to have a more masculine chiselled chin.

Dermal fillers for chin augmentation can :

• Improve facial balance of the forehead, nose and chin.
• Improve the symmetry of the chin
• Improve self-confidence
• Give a defined, stronger jaw line to improve the appearance
• Gently reshape a weak chin
• Achieve a completely natural looking result

Re-shaping the chin using dermal filler will add definition, balance and symmetry to the chin using long-lasting dermal fillers in a non-surgical treatment. Placement of fillers will give small and under developed chins a more natural, fuller chin, restoring natural balance to the face.

Vaser Lipo Treatment at Selston - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

If you struggle with your weight, and dieting and exercising just isn't working for you, then vaser lipo is one method guaranteed to give your body the dramatic transformation you've been looking for. The vaser lipo technique uses a precise, but minimally invasive liposuction technology, to deliver the amazing results you've been looking for. In many cases, the results become visible after only one treatment. Vaser lipo is the procedure you need, if you want to refine and sculpt your figure and eliminate fat. Vaser lipo can help you look your very best, whether it's a simple improvement in a problem area or a major full-body transformation.

The vaser lipo technique offers lots of advantages over traditional liposuction treatments.

• The vaser procedure does not require large incisions.
• The treatment is tissue-selective and targets only the fat, leaving other tissues protected from any damage.
• The procedure is powerful enough to deal with large areas of fat, but it's gentle on core areas such as the arms and neck.
• Recovery time is much shorter due to less damage to surrounding tissues and blood vessels.
• Vaser lipo has been clinically proven to provide only the best results in treated areas, leaving your skin smooth and your body, beautifully contoured.

The pain during a vaser lipo procedure is minimal because treatment is only mildly invasive. We numb the treatment areas with local anaesthetic, and we make only very small incisions in the skin to fit suction tubes, and there is normally no need for any stitches.

Important benefits of Vaser Lipo

• Refines and emphasises muscle appearance.
• Smooth's the skin in the most delicate areas such as arms and neck.
• Easy removal of large amounts of stored fats.
• Readily visible results after a single procedure.
• Vaser Lipo is the best way to remove fatty tissue for aesthetic body contouring. 

Results are immediate and you will be able to see your new changed shape as soon as your vaser treatment has finished. Treated areas might be a little swollen, but results will improve after a week and continue to improve for up to six months as your skin tightens with new collagen growth. Your post-op care programme will include deep tissue massage that will help to improve your results.

You may feel a little bruising or swelling in the treated areas, which should subside after a few days. You’ll be sent home with a post-op care programme to follow, to help your recovery.

Vaser Lipo on Outer Thighs Before & After Photo's - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Vaser lipo treatment selectively removes stubborn fat from different area's on the body, giving the client a sleek body that couldn't be achieved by just exercise or diet. Exercise should always be the first option, but you may still have trouble getting rid of the stubborn fat, even if you're strict with your diet and spend every day at the gym. Sometimes, no matter how many times you visit the gym, that fat just won't shift!

It's no fun feeling self conscious about the parts of your body which you feel have got fat, but the older we get, the harder it is to keep these trouble spots in check. Sometimes, with hard work we can lose the fat, other times we'll minimise it, but a lot of the time we can't completely remove the last pockets of fat. Vaser lipo can help you to create a sleeker, smoother looking body.

Before and after vaser lipo

A vaser lipo procedure isn't a method to lose weight or an alternative to diet and exercises, but should be regarded as a form of body contouring, which sculpts the body to the desired look. Vaser lipo uses ultrasound energy to break up fat, and its innovative technology respects the veins, nerves, blood vessels and surrounding tissue, leaving them relatively intact. The technique allows the doctor to work with such precision, shaping even delicate areas, such as the chin and knees.

Women tend to store fat in the lower part of the body and the most notorious problem areas are the hips and thighs. Approximately half of all women are pear shaped, which means their bottom half is larger than their top half. Fatty thighs make fitting into slim fitting clothes a mission impossible, and can ruin the lines of an otherwise stunning outfit.

Wearing clothing that cling, just highlights those bits of the body that we hate the most. We don't get the smooth outline we want, and we definitely don't achieve a great silhouette. This lady came to Selston Cosmetic Clinic to have vaser lipo on her outer thighs. Although she exercised regularly, she just couldn't smooth out her thighs.

 

Before and after vaser lipo.

After vaser she had a much smoother outline and had no problem wear tight fitting skirts and jeans.

After lipo treatment is completed, the body won't replace the fat cells, so a long-lasting change in body shape can be maintained by regular exercise and a healthy diet. Younger people with firm elastic skin tend to have better results with vaser lipo, as older skin is less elastic and doesn't tighten so readily around the new shape.

Botox Treatments at Selston Cosmetic Clinic - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Ladies, we don't have to age gracefully anymore. At Selston Cosmetic Clinic, we spend a large part of our time administering Botox injections, which is an affordable treatment, used by both women, and men! Botox is not just for the older folk, lots of younger clients are now having treatment as a prevention method. If you stop the beginnings of a wrinkle, and keep having maintenance treatments, you will stay looking more youthful for longer!

We all age, this is just a simple fact of life. However, there are some people who unfortunately feel they look older than their years. And while it’s true that you’re only as old as you feel, in the long run, the comments you get from other people are bound to eventually take effect. It's small details that determine the way we look at ourselves and other people. The face is the place where age shows up first, and wrinkle fillers are ideal for those who want a youthful appearance without having to do anything too drastic. Botox is non-invasive and can give an incredibly natural result, dramatically reducing wrinkles and giving a smoother, less tired looking face.

Botox treatment is an effective and safe way to reduce and smooth out wrinkles. The frown lines across the forehead, and the vertical lines between the eyebrows, form through the repeated movement of muscles when we express ourselves. Dynamic lines are created by motion, as opposed to lines that result from sun exposure. The muscles on the forehead cause the skin to crinkle up when we are concentrating, looking into the sun, speaking expressively or many other things that happen daily. In fact, every time you scowl, squint, glare or grimace, these lines are slowing starting to develop.

Lots of people put up with mild frown lines, but tend to get more concerned when the grooves get deeper, spoiling the look of the forehead. Frown lines can get worse the older we get, as over time the elastic fibers in the skin fracture, and collagen in the skin breaks down. The lines start to look permanent and no longer disappear, even when the face is at rest. Temporary fillers offer a more natural look and are safer to use than something that's semi-permanent or permanent because they are more compatible with the body.

At Selston our clients regularly return because they love their Botox results. A lot of our Botox bookings come to us through word of mouth, due to happy customers spreading the word! We're in a convenient location, with new clients no longer having to navigate an unfamiliar city centre, then try to find somewhere to park and pay city centre prices! We're based in a village that's 5 minutes away from J.27 on the M1 motorway, and clients often choose to come to Selston from far and wide, because they love the service and competitive prices we offer.

Before & After Vaser Lipo on the Tummy - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

At the Selston Cosmetic Clinic, one of the most popular cosmetic treatments we do is Vaser Lipo. We get lots of enquiries about it, asking; which areas can it treat, how long does a procedure take, is it painful and what happens afterwards? If you are thinking of having Vaser treatment, then check out the gallery of before and after photo's on the Selston Cosmetic Clinic website, or if you have decided to have Vaser Lipo treatment, then give us a call and we can book you an appointment for a free consultation with Dr. Bassi.

If you have trouble losing stubborn fat from one particular place, then doing exercises that concentrate on the problem area may help.  In many cases there is no way to completely tone the area, and if you are in this position and it's causing you distress, why not consider cosmetic treatment?
People wonder which body areas are suitable for Vaser Lipo treatment. Well, the answer is, lots!

Areas that are popular with women are:
Abdomen
Hips
Arms
Inner thighs and outer thighs
Buttocks
And the areas most popular with men are:
Abdomen
Embarrassing male breasts (Man boobs)
Love handles / Flanks

A few weeks ago this woman came to the Selston Cosmetic Clinic for Vaser Lipo treatment of the tummy. She was happy with her body, but she had a bit of a belly and all she wanted was to get her tummy more in proportion.

Before treatment

Dr. Bassi did the procedure and a few weeks later she came back for a follow-up appointment and she was looking great. With even better results to look forward to in the coming months!

A few weeks after Vaser Lipo and look at the difference!

The tummy area is a very common place for Vaser Lipo treatments. It works well removing stubborn areas of fat which are very hard to shift with diet and exercise alone. Vaser Lipo can target a pot belly, love handles and muffin tops.

Vaser Lipo has lots of advantages:
It doesn't need general anaesthetic, instead we use local anaesthetic to numb the treatment area.
The procedure is minimally invasive – no damage to other body tissues or nerves.
Improved skin retraction.
Minimal risk of bleeding, scarring, bruising and discomfort.

Vaser Lipo is a walk-in-walk-out procedure, so minimal downtime, which is great news for those with busy schedules.

Vaser Lipo is excellent for reducing fatty bulges and sculpting a beautiful natural contour to the body. The body won’t replace the fat cells removed from these areas during a procedure, so it can deliver a long-lasting change to your body shape.

This procedure is not intended as a weight loss solution, the aim is to create a slimmer silhouette. You won't lose a significant amount of weight loss through Vaser, but you will be very happy with your new slimmer shape.

Before & After Vaser Lipo Treatment for Man Boobs (Gynecomastia) Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

There are many reasons why it becomes harder to lose excess weight as we age; our metabolism slows down, we may become less active and our digestion changes. Certain body areas are resistant to diet and exercise and it's very frustrating, wondering if we’ll ever be able to get rid of stubborn pockets of fat that just won't shift, even when following a healthy, active lifestyle.

Man boobs or gynecomastia is excessive fatty tissue that's stored over the pectoral muscles on the chest area of a man. These breast tissues are made up of fat deposits and swollen glands, and are extremely difficult to lose, even with exercise. Gynecomastia can arise through hormonal imbalance, side effects from certain medications - especially those with steroids as an ingredient, obesity and ageing. It's not uncommon for this condition to develop during puberty too.

At the Selston Cosmetic Clinic we successfully use Vaser Lipo to correct man boobs. The Vaser Lipo procedure uses advanced ultrasound technology to emulsify the fat, under local anaesthetic, whilst avoiding the veins, nerves, blood vessels and surrounding tissue, which leaves them relatively intact. The fat is then aspirated. Even though there's some minor swelling, the results are instantaneous, and there's further body contouring and skin tightening over the next 6 months.

At the clinic earlier this month, we had a lovely young man from the North who had a problem with gynecomastia which had affected him for a long time. He had tried to exercise them away but just couldn't rid himself of his protruding breasts. He never felt confident enough to wear certain clothes which would emphasise his problem and he wanted a Vaser Lipo procedure to completely flatten his chest.

.....before vaser treatment

Earlier this month.....

This week - just two weeks later - he came to see Dr. Bassi for a follow-up appointment and the initial results were fab! His chest was really flat, and the improvements and skin retraction will continue for a few months. He followed our post op care to the letter and even bought himself an ultrasound massager to use at home!

Stunning results just two weeks later!

Selston Cosmetic Clinic was one of the first clinics in the UK offering the Vaser Lipo procedure and we are a main Vaser Lipo National Training Centre for cosmetic doctors. We are also a national and international clinic, having clients travelling to us from all over the UK, Europe, Middle East and China! To keep up to date with trends in the cosmetic industry, Dr Bassi has attended courses, training and seminars in various parts of the world, such as USA, South America, Europe as well as in the UK.

At the clinic Dr. Bassi has performed over 15OO procedures (and still counting) performing 4 to 5 procedures each week, giving a bespoke personal service to every client. Vaser Lipo is regarded as the gentlest and most powerful form of liposuction available today and over the past year we have used the Vaser Tickle Lipo system along with Vaser and by using both technologies we have been able to extract greater amounts of fat, faster and in more comfort.

The philosophy of our clinic is simple - to make sure that cutting edge treatments are identified, improved, and made available to clients at Selston Cosmetic Clinic at competitive prices.

Botox Treatment for Square Jaw Reduction - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

It's considered by most people throughout the world that having a square lower jaw is a masculine trait. Men naturally have a strong chin and a strong, square jaw line is distinctly masculine, but many women would prefer a softer, more feminine shape to their face. And while a square jaw line is an entirely acceptable look for a woman, the female jaw is thinner than the male jaw and has slightly rounded corners and the angles, while it is square, it's not blunt.

A few key characteristics that distinguish a male jaw from a female one:

• Men tend to have longer chins.
• The angles of a man’s jaw are sharp, making it look square, where a square jaw on a woman still has a curve.
• On a man’s face the chin is flat at the base but pointed on a woman.
• A male jaw looks wider, heavier, and thicker than a female jaw.

A typical female jaw curves gently, extending from the ear down to the chin, and although this shape is often associated as being the most feminine or the most common, many women who our society considers attractive, have a more angular, masculine jaw line. By changing the shape of the face from square to a more ladylike round or oval shape.

It's been said that some women with a square jaw have slightly higher testosterone levels than average, but in many women it's simply an ethnic feature. But, a square jaw line is not necessarily just a man's facial feature as some of the most beautiful women in the world, Angelina Jolie, Selma Hayek and Keira Knightley have square jaws.



Angelina Jolie has a strong square jaw line.

Kiera Knightley has a square shaped face.

If a strong, square jaw line becomes too pronounced, it can make the face appear masculine and in turn cause self-consciousness. Masseter muscles in the jaw are responsible for jaw motion, and as with any muscle, the jaw muscles increase in size with exercise, and actions such as repeated gum chewing, teeth clenching or grinding the teeth in your sleep, can cause the muscle to increase, which can create a visibly square appearance in the face.

One solution for square jaw reduction is botox treatment which is an effective treatment for people with over-developed jaw muscles. At the Selston Cosmetic Clinic an advanced botox technique is used to correct a square jaw. The botox is precisely injected into the masseter muscles of the jaw to weaken it. When it weakens, the size of the muscle will reduce and as the masseter muscle decreases in size post injection, an oval face develops.

Women with a squared jaw seem to have issues with their appearance as it makes their face look a lot bigger. However, getting botox to curve their square jaw is becoming popular among women, for greater, softer look.

Vaser Lipo on Men's Abs Before and After - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield and Chesterfield

These days, most men are just as anxious about their appearance as women, and it seems that the time for men to accept what they have, and suffer in silence is over! More and more men are turning to cosmetic procedures, as today, more than ever before, there is a growing pressure on men to look good.

With men's magazine covers, TV advertising and giant posters on billboards bearing down on us: of half-naked David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo posing in tight pants for their underwear range or shirtless tennis player Rafael Nadal advertising fragrances for Tommy Hilfiger..... it seems that it's less about the product they're selling and more about showing off the fit, toned bodies with six packs and definition!

Unfortunately, these days not that many of us have the time to spend in the gym, putting in all those hours needed to maintain a fit body and keep it looking in peak condition. This can affect confidence and self-esteem, even for those who are fit and healthy as sometimes, as no matter how much gym work is done, there are still stubborn areas of fat that linger.

Men today want to look good, and to do so they are opting to have cosmetic treatment to achieve it. At the Selston Cosmetic Clinic most of the male clients that come to see us for  vaser lipo treatment are normally blokes that take lots of exercise, have a good diet and basically keep up a healthy lifestyle. For them, vaser lipo is a last resort because no matter how healthy the diet, or how many hours they spend in the gym there always seems that one area of their body where stubborn pockets of fat just won't shift!

This lovely guy (see photo's below) is a fitness fanatic, but could not gain the six-pack he wanted. He had lost weight and had significant looseness of the skin... well 4 weeks later,  just look at the result he has achieved so far after vaser lipo.

4 weeks after vaser lipo !

Before vaser lipo

Almost all men, especially the younger ones, would wish for a good set of abs, but infuriatingly, abs just happen to be one of the hardest areas to lose that last bit of excess fat from. This is where vaser lipo can help, and can get you on the right track to get your body looking exactly the way you want it.

The precise nature of a vaser lipo procedure makes it ideal for achieving six-pack abs, as it can be done in very small areas with a great degree of accuracy and when the fat is removed with this process, it's removed permanently. Although it must be noted that a healthy diet and exercise regime are still recommended after any body contouring surgery to keep up the great results.

This young man (see photo's below) was after the elusive six-pack look and after years of training he still could not achieve his goal. Vaser lipo at the Selston Cosmetic Clinic made his dreams come true in one afternoon!



 

The vaser lipo process is very soft on the body, and is minimally invasive – you won’t believe the drastic positive effects it will have on your abs, for such a seemingly small treatment.
Give us a call and arrange a free consultation and we will give you the abdomen shape you’re looking for in no time.

Chemical Peel for Rejuvenated Skin - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

It's well known that the winter months aren't kind to our skin. Whether it's being out in the harsh, wet, cold weather or spending most of our time indoors with the central heating drying out our skin. The truth is that come the Spring, our skin is definitely in need of a boost!

A lot of skin problems are associated with a build up of dead skin cells, which can make skin look dull with clogged up pores. Skin Peels offer a great way to treat and improve ageing skin, acne, sun damage and the skin's irregular pigmentation. With a short course of treatments, it can also help the skin to appear smoother, brighter and vastly improve the texture and colour of the skin.

This is where the Selston Cosmetic Clinic can come to your aid!
We offer revolutionary medical skin peels which are non-irritating, pain free and do not cause skin shedding or redness, which other, harsher chemical peels are usually associated with. These chemical peels have now become increasingly popular, giving fantastic results as seen on television programmes such as "10 Years Younger."

Treatment using chemical peels can:

• Reduce fine lines from under the eyes and around the mouth
• Treat wrinkles which are caused by sun damage and ageing
• Improve the appearance of mild scars
• Treat active acne
• Reduce age spots, freckles and irregular pigmentation
• Improve the look and texture of the skin

A chemical peel is a non-surgical procedure, with the aim being to enhance and rejuvenate the facial appearance, giving you smoother, softer, blemish free skin.

Why have chemical facial peels?

Over time, your skin can gradually appear dull and lifeless, which maybe caused by dead skin cells that accumulate and clog up your skin. Chemical facial peels will remove the dead skin cells from the surface of the skin to allow new healthy skin cells to grow back, which will create smoother looking skin.

The benefits of chemical skin peels:

• The treatment is pain free
• There is no skin shredding, no skin flaking, no irritation and no redness
• Promotes growth of new skin, collagen and elastin, which thickens the skin and improves resistance to the effects of ageing
• Skin peels make your face fresh and youthful and improves skin texture and tone
• Suitable for all skin types (light to dark skin)

Dr Bassi at the Selston Cosmetic Clinic has over 10 years experience in the cosmetic industry and has performed numerous chemical peels. The doctor will examine your skin, discuss your requirements and recommend a treatment plan specific for you.

The procedure takes about 45 minutes and you can return to normal activities immediately following treatment. The treatment course consists of 6 treatments, each 4 weeks apart. Most clients see an improvement after their first treatment.

Peel away that winter skin and look forward to a bright, glowing Spring!

Bingo Wings - Vaser Lipo on Upper Arms - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Vaser Lipo on Bingo Wings at the Selston Cosmetic Clinic  

Do you dread revealing your upper arms during the warm summer months? Do you clamp your arms to your sides because your upper arms are a little wobbly? Well you are definitely not alone.

 

'Bingo wings' is the nickname given to flabby upper arms, usually in women as they grow older. Getting them is more likely on people who are overweight or obese and though dieting may help to reduce bingo wings, loose skin can still remain after sudden weight loss. They are almost impossible to shift with ordinary exercise routines.

 

Bingo wings before and after.

 

 

Bingo wings – nobody wants them, but there they are, wobbling away like jelly on a plate! The term 'Bingo wings' is a slang word which is used to describe folds of loose skin or flesh hanging from the undersides of the upper arms. It's said the nickname originated in 1990's, when women playing Bingo raise their hand to signal a win and the loose arm flesh jiggles about.

Bingo wings are not pleasant to have and put a lot of restrictions on what people, mainly women, feel they can or can’t wear, especially in the warmer months when sleeveless tops, dresses or vest tops are the norm. A few years ago there was a media campaign, calling for mainstream shops and clothes designers to make more clothes with flattering sleeves.

A great number of women won't wear anything that will put their upper arms on display because they are so embarrassed with their untoned and flabby arms. Many resort to a cover up of some kind, with jackets, cardigans, shrugs and pashminas being their main choices.

When it comes to flabby, flapping upper arms, it has usually been a case of grin and bare them - or else cover them up with a cardi! A lot of women don't own too many sleeveless outfits, as their arms are no longer one of their better features and prefer to keep them covered up. Bingo wings can make even the most confident of women feel self-conscious about sleeveless and short-sleeved clothing.

Before and after vaser lipo on the upper arms.

What to wear and what not to wear:

• Cap sleeves. These are a no-no. Cap-sleeve tops or dresses are an alternative to sleeveless, but they will make your arms look heavier, as they cut off right at the part of the arm that is the widest.
• Puffed sleeves. The puffy sleeves will only draw attention to the arms as the puff sleeve has lots of volume.
• Off-the-shoulder tops. Every woman has sexy shoulders, so get around Bingo Wings by choosing long or short-sleeve tops that are off the shoulder, on one or both sides.
• Elasticated or short sleeves with a cuff. Any tightness around a heavier area only accentuates the problem. If you do wear short sleeves, choose fabric with plenty of  'give' or sleeves with a wider opening.
• Illusion clothing. A great way to disguise heavy upper arms is to wear fabric which has a chiffon, sheer net or mesh look. These fabrics hide a multitude of sins.

If you're secretly quite pleased we're still in wintertime, because that means you haven’t had to bare your upper arms yet, then help is at hand. It's time to wave goodbye to your bingo wings!

Amazing results before and after vaser lipo on the arms.

At the Selston Cosmetic Clinic we perform 4 to 5 vaser lipo procedures each week, giving a bespoke personal service to each one of our clients. Liposuction is the selective removal of stubborn fat from various parts of the body and gives the client results that couldn't be achieved by exercise or diet. Local anaesthesia is given beforehand, and the procedure is relatively pain-free. The vaser lipo can take up to 2/ 3 hours and a Friday procedure will typically have you back to work and play by Monday.

Vaser Liposuction is now the gold standard in Liposuction giving better results and minimal down times. Vaser gives smooth beautiful results along with faster healing times. It is regarded as the gentlest and most powerful form of liposuction available today.
