Remove Unsightly Facial Tread Veins With Laser Treatment - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Your self-confidence can easily be destroyed if you are unhappy about your appearance. Redness in the face, especially around the nose and cheek areas is a common problem that affects men and women of all ages. We all want beautiful skin but sometimes that doesn't come easily. It takes a lot of time to maintain a flawless complexion, and working hard at having a clean, healthy, clear skin will ultimately give you lots more confidence, but it's worth the effort.

Facial thread veins, sometimes called spider veins, can sometimes be caused by sun exposure, smoking, excess alcohol, sometimes people have a family predisposition to them, but mostly they are just part of the ageing process. Many people suffer from these red or purple blood vessels showing on their face, and they might appear as blotches, small veins or a complex network of veins, but in reality these blood vessels are not veins, but permanently dilated and broken capillaries and because they are located close to the surface of the skin, they are highly visible.

There are things you can do to lessen or take away the spider veins on your face, and one treatment is a laser procedure, which is simple, safe and a quick way to remove them. Laser treatment takes about 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the area you need treating. A laser gets applied to the skin directly above the spider veins, and the energy from the laser is preferentially absorbed by coloured tissues. The laser energy causes the spider veins to first heat up, and then collapse. After the treatment, the body slowly re-absorbs the veins.

Most clients feel only minimal discomfort, maybe some tingling or stinging sensations, but a topical anaesthetic cream can easily be applied if it's needed. The treated skin might be slightly sensitive for a few days after treatment, but most people need no recovery time at all, and can return to their normal activities immediately after the treatment. The spider veins will look better after just one treatment, although in some cases, more than one session maybe required to get long-lasting results to get rid of them completely. Most people will need two or three courses of treatment, scheduled a month apart.

Removing visible facial spider or thread veins is now almost painless with the latest laser treatments, removing the thread veins, revealing clearer-looking skin. It's advisable to do lots of moisturising afterwards and sunscreen application is essential to protect the skin after treatment.

Easily Remove Unsightly Warts, Using Radio Surgery - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Warts on the face and body can affect our self-confidence in a very big way. Not only do they look unsightly, they can also take some years to resolve, when left to their own devices. Depending on where on the body the warts are, they can cause irritation when rubbing against the skin or catching on clothes and jewellery.

The wart virus usually enters the skin through defects in the epidermis, which is the outer covering layer of the skin. Although they are common, they are often seen as an embarrassing thing to have, especially when they are on a visible part of the body, such as the face and hands.

Warts can grow almost anywhere on the body, but are commonly found on the:

• Hands
• Face
• Neck
• Back

Warts are one of the most common skin infections you can have. Caused by a virus, they are easily spread by direct contact and you can easily infect yourself again, by touching the wart and then touching other parts of your body. Warts sit on the skin, and they appear either; uneven textured growths that often look like a cabbage, or a smooth blister. They can occur on any part of the body and while some cause no bother and go away on their own, others linger on and can cause discomfort and pain.

Some common types of warts are:

• Common warts - these usually grow on the fingers and toes, but they can appear anywhere. They have a rough, grainy appearance and a rounded top and they are greyer than the surrounding skin.
• Flat warts - are slow-growing, are small and not immediately obvious. They are smooth and flat with a rough appearance and typically occur on the face, neck, knees and wrists. They can look pink, brownish, or slightly yellow.
• Filiform warts - are flesh coloured warts on the face and neck. They are small and shaped like a tiny flap or tag of skin, and grow around the mouth or nose and sometimes under the chin or on the neck.
• Plantar warts - are also known as verruca's and they grow on the soles of the feet, but unlike other warts, plantar warts grow into your skin, not out of it. These warts  are flat and have a black centre, they're surrounded by hardened skin and they can cause pain or discomfort when you walk.
• Periungual warts - grow under and around the toenails and fingernails. They can cause pain and affect nail growth.

At Selston Cosmetic Clinic, radio surgery is the preferred treatment method for wart removal. It involves using high frequency radio waves that generate heat, which evaporate the wart. This advanced technology generates much less heat that other conventional methods, resulting in less scarring to the skin. Radio surgery penetrates the area of a wart, and the electrode of the radio wand travels over the wart, heating the area and removing the wart without needing to cut the skin.

With wart removal treatment, downtime is almost non-existent. You’ll be able to get back to you regular day-to-day routine quickly, without any lingering discomfort.

Fine, Downy Hair Removal with Alkaline Hair Wash - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

The cosmetic team at Selston Cosmetic Clinic receive a lot of enquiries from clients with blonde, grey, fine and downy hair, wanting to have hair removal treatment using lasers. Unfortunately, as laser hair removal is typically beyond the reach of these hair types and gives very poor results, we have no choice but to advise against having this treatment... but we do have an alternative!

Alkaline hair remover is the next best thing, to remove unwanted downy, facial hair. Alkaline wash has been specifically designed to reduce this type of unwanted hair. It's the perfect hair removal treatment for downy hair on the face, lip and chin and it's a treatment that is designed to eliminate the fine hair on your face that shouldn't be waxed, and hair that's difficult to treat with electrolysis or laser.

We apply a paste made of alkaline powder for a few minutes to dissolve part of the underlying follicle beneath the skin. This releases hair from the hair follicles, giving you smooth, hair free skin immediately after treatment. With regular treatments, it's said that regrowth becomes slower and ultimately ceases for most people. Alkaline Hair Wash does not stimulate dormant hair follicles as waxing sometimes does and the only side effect, is a possible temporary redness after treatment.

Removing downy hair with alkaline hair wash treatment

Alkaline Wash is most effective when treating fine, blonde, white, grey or downy hair. It's most suitable for areas where there's a dense growth of fine hair, that is usually resistive to standard hair removal methods. After the first treatment the hair will normally grow back at its normal rate, but as treatments progress the re-growth will become slower and slower. The hair does not grow back any coarser after Alkaline Hair Wash Treatment.

• The procedure time is 1-2 days
• The treatment course is 6 treatments, each treatment is 4 weeks apart
• No recovery time, you are back to work the next day
• The treatment normally results in permanent hair removal
• The treatment is painless and needs no anaesthetic
• The results are immediately seen

Alkaline hair wash can drastically reduce hair growth after 2-3 treatments, leaving some clients happy with the improvement they get, but most continue with the full treatment course, aiming for total clearance. The treatment itself is painless, although in some cases the skin can become red, but this is normal and will only last for a short period.

We can use Alkaline hair wash hair removal treatment as a stand alone treatment or combined with laser hair removal to give that smooth finished hair free look! Now blonde's can have the benefits of hair removal too!

Laser Treatment for Spider Leg Veins - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Many people suffer from red or purple blood vessels on their legs, which are not veins but usually dilated capillaries, and these are commonly known as Spider Leg Veins. Getting these veins is part of the ageing process, caused by over exposure to the sun or you might simply have a family predisposition to them. Leg thread veins are very common, although lots of people feel that the dilated or broken capillaries compromise their appearance and undermines their confidence.

Superficial leg veins, occur when tiny veins congregate below the surface of the skin, causing red, blue or purple discolorations on the skin. Spider veins get their name from the shape of the visible veins, some are quite small, while others are more noticeable. Although they might make you feel embarrassed, they are harmless and any treatment done on them, is usually done for cosmetic reasons only. Spider veins tend to appear mostly on the thighs, ankles and calves, and are more common in women than men.

These spider veins are essentially enlarged superficial blood vessels, red to purple in colour. Leg thread veins can run in the family, appear following injury to the leg, during pregnancy or through hormonal changes and any job that requires standing for long periods. Selston Cosmetic Clinic provides the latest leading, safe and effective cosmetic medical treatments for spider leg veins.

Before the procedure, we use a topical anesthetic cream to decrease discomfort. Laser treatments involve minimal pain, however, whist we deliver the laser pulses to the treatment area, some people might experience a light stinging sensation on the skin. Leg vein treatments take roughly 15 to 30 minutes, the time varies, depending on the number of veins that need treating. We divide appointments for treatments into eight-week segments, and two treatments usually leave the best results. Downtime is minimal and immediate return to regular activities is allowed.

Help prevent spider veins by:

• Avoid sitting or standing for long periods.
• Poor blood flow and circulation cause spider veins. When sitting down, try to avoid crossing your legs for long periods, as this can cause the vein walls to weaken and spider veins to appear.
• Try to avoid wearing high-heeled shoes, as heels put extra pressure on your legs, restricting the blood flow from the heart to the legs, and this limited circulation can cause spider veins to appear.
• Raise your feet when you're sitting down. This will improve the circulation and help regulate the blood flow in your veins, reducing swelling in the ankles and calves, reducing the risk of spider veins.
• Wear support tights. They help to stimulate your blood vessels and improve your circulation, and poor circulation often causes spider veins.
• It's important to use sun cream to protect the skin on your face, but it can also help prevent spider veins from appearing on your legs, calves and ankles.

Infrequently, the treated area will be mildly swollen and sensitive for several weeks. Keep the area well moisturised and away from sunlight. You should avoid strenuous exercise and we recommend wearing support tights or stocks one week after the treatment. It takes about eight weeks for the treated veins to disappear.

Mole Removal at Selston Cosmetic Clinic - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Some say beauty spots, and some say moles! It's funny that they are only considered beauty spots when they enhance certain features of the face. When they're sat prettily by the eyes, on the cheeks or strategically placed around the mouth, like certain movie stars and singers, then they're applauded. But heaven help us if we get one on the centre of our nose, forehead or chin, because then, instead of being a rather fetching little beauty spot, they are just considered ugly brown moles.

We all strive to have flawless skin, but if you take a close look at the people around you, you will soon notice that most of them have a mole or two somewhere upon their face, which can often lead to embarrassment and loss of confidence. We are all insecure about something, and everyone has imperfections, and most things like teenage spots and blackheads clear up over time but unfortunately moles, unless treated by a doctor, are a bit more permanent.

Moles vary in shape, size, and colour from person to person. They can sometimes be flat, or maybe have a more raised appearance and be either smooth, coarse or hairy. They are either dark brown or black in colour and they might be just one single mole or a cluster. Moles on the face are very common and are mostly harmless.

Mole before and after radio frequency mole removal technology.

Moles that are large and hard to hide can cause distress, other, more prominent moles can restrict movement or become very uncomfortable if they catch on clothing. Most people develop moles on the skin naturally, with age and with exposure to the sun, and most of these moles are harmless. However, if you notice a new mole or think that an existing mole may have changed, then it's important to get a doctor to check it and make sure it's not skin cancer.

People have moles removed for different reasons, either medical or cosmetic. There are many ways to remove unsightly moles from the skin, including  laser, radio frequency, electro cautery, cryotherapy (freezing) or shave excisions, which are all non-invasive methods.

At Selston Cosmetic Clinic, radio frequency mole removal technology is our preferred method of mole removal. We use state of the art technology that produces radio waves which instantly vaporises the moles, resulting in much less scarring.

Get instant results!
Negligible scarring!
NO incisions or stitches required!
It is a simple, quick, painless procedure!
Full healing occurs within 4-6 weeks!
It's performed under local anaesthetic!
ONLY one single visit required!

Botox Treatment for Excessive Underarm Sweating - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

However much we hate it, sweating is natural and it's an important part of our body's ability to regulate our body temperature. Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) is a common condition causing a person to sweat excessively. The sweating may affect all of your body, or it may only affect certain areas. Commonly affected areas include the armpits, the palms of your hands, the soles of your feet, your face and face, chest and groin.

Excessive sweating from the armpits is one of the most embarrassing conditions and can seriously affect our self-esteem and the way we go about our daily lives. So, if you are feeling hot and bothered and antiperspirants just aren’t keeping you dry, Botox might be the answer.

There's some practical advice to help stop excessive sweating. Wearing the appropriate clothing is essential. Cotton is ideal, it's cool and it absorbs sweat,  but it does tend to remain damp. Clothes made with synthetic fibres tend to draw sweat away from the body and make you feel dry, however this fabric is good at keeping the body warm and this can just make you sweat even more. You should keep your house and work environment well ventilated, and a change of clothing during the day can help make you feel more comfortable.

Excessive sweating can cause lots of inconveniences:
It limits what type of fabrics you are able to wear.
Washing and dry-cleaning bills will probably soar.
The embarrassment and frustration we feel in public and with groups of friends.
When meeting new partners the main concern is that you’ll glisten and glow, and not in a good way!
The chances are, that you will have to frequently change your clothing.

There are some alternative treatments for underarm sweatiness. Many people will have tried self-treatment first, by trying out a range of over the counter antiperspirants, which are generally ineffective and talcum powder which can help to absorb the sweat. If these have not helped, Botox hyperhidrosis treatment is an excellent alternative with outstanding results to stop excessive sweating.

Excessive sweating can now be treated effectively with Botox injections. Selston Cosmetic Clinic provides the latest, safe, effective cosmetic medical treatments for excessive sweating. We inject Botox in very small quantities in the armpit region, just under the skin, making the area numb beforehand to minimise any discomfort you may experience. We use very fine needles to inject the Botox making the procedure virtually painless. The treatment usually takes about 20-30 minutes and you can return to work immediately after the procedure. In most cases the treatment takes effect within a matter of days and can last up to 9-12 months. The procedure can be repeated as often as necessary.

Ideal Candidates for Vaser Lipo Procedures - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Everyone has body issues and at some time or other feel insecure about the way their body looks. All around, on TV, in magazines and posted on social media there are images of seemingly perfect men and women with absolutely no body imperfections! Now, we might know that they airbrush most of these images, but that doesn't stop us feeling slightly dissatisfied with our wobbly bits.

Luckily, for people who feel insecure about some of their body parts, Vaser liposuction is a great way to slim and contour your body exactly the way you want it. It’s a more gentle and precise method than traditional liposuction, and an ideal way to achieve your desired shape. Vaser is a minimally invasive treatment and is a great way to target problem areas and sculpt the body. When faddy diets and hours at the gym exercising just won't get rid of that stubborn tummy or give you sleek silhouette, then it might be time to consider Vaser Liposuction.

Just 3 weeks after Vaser Lipo!

Before the Vaser Lipo procedure

A good candidate for Vaser Lipo treatment is:

Weight.
If you’re within 30% of your ideal weight, then Vaser Lipo is an ideal treatment for you, if it's any more than 30% then you should probably consider a different weight loss method. Vaser Lipo is not a weight reduction procedure, it is a body contouring procedure.

Skin elasticity.
Firm skin with good elasticity will help you to achieve the look you want after your procedure. Usually, visible skin retraction takes between 2-4 weeks and gets better & better over the 4-6 months after the procedure.

Muscle tone.
It helps if you already have good muscle tone before your treatment. To achieve maximum results, many experienced Vaser doctors recommend that you start to tone your muscles before you have a procedure.

Health.
Relatively good health before Vaser Lipo is important, and that you do not have any illnesses or medical conditions that may prevent you from healing properly after treatment. However, if you do suffer from a particular health condition, your doctor will talk to you about your suitability for Vaser Lipo.

Before and after Vaser Hi-Def

People choosing Vaser Lipo treatments should have a realistic idea on what results they want to achieve. At the first consultation at the Selston Cosmetic Clinic, Dr. Bassi; after looking at your fat distribution, skin, muscle tone and overall body shape, will talk you through the procedure. He will give you honest advice on what is, and what isn't achievable.

So if you're in good health, have reasonable expectations about the results, if you’re within 30% of your ideal weight and have firm skin with good elasticity, then you are a great candidate for Vaser Lipo.

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

Vaser Lipo is the best cosmetic procedure if you want to contour and streamline your figure and get rid of stubborn pockets of fat. From simple improvements in small areas, to larger, more troublesome areas, Vaser Lipo can help you look your very best.

If you have you always struggled with weight gain, and exercise and diet just isn't working, then Vaser Lipo is the ideal treatment to achieve the dramatic transformation, you have hoped for. The Vaser Lipo technique uses a minimally invasive, but very precise liposuction technology, to deliver the eye-catching results you've been looking for. In many cases, results become visible after only one procedure and will continue to look better over the following weeks!

The Vaser Lipo technique offers many advantages over traditional liposuction treatments. The procedure is tissue-selective, targeting only the fat while protecting other tissues from damage. The procedure is powerful enough to deal with bigger areas of fat, but is gentle on smaller areas such as the arms, chin and neck. The Vaser Lipo technology will provide the best results in treated areas which will leave your skin smooth and your body, beautifully contoured.

Before beginning Vaser Lipo treatment, we administer a local anaesthetic to the targeted and surrounding areas, so that you will feel minimal discomfort during the procedure. We make small incisions to place the cannulas, however these are just millimetres long so rarely scar or bruise and they don't need stitches.

We send the Vaser ultrasound energy to the targeted areas, using very thin, solid and grooved probes. The energy is delivered to the fatty deposits between your skin and muscle, causing fat cells to vibrate, and this action dissolves the fat cells and simply melts the fat to liquid. The liquid fat is then drained from the body through suction. Following the treatment any residual fat will be naturally excreted by your body and by post-op massaging of the treatment area. It’s important to take plenty of fluids following your treatment for this very reason. Fatty deposits can continue to break down even weeks after the treatment, so Vaser Lipo results will often improve over time, especially if combined with regular exercise and a healthy diet.

• Important benefits of Vaser Lipo:
  It can refine and emphasise muscle appearance.
  Smoother skin in the most delicate areas such as arms and neck.
  The easy removal of large amounts of stored fats.
  Visible results in one single procedure.
  Vaser Lipo is the best way to remove fatty tissue for aesthetic body contouring.

Vaser Lipo treatment is a walk in, walk out procedure taking between 1-3 hours, depending on the size of the area. The process is very soft on the body, and is minimally invasive, you won’t believe the drastic positive effects it will have on your body, for such a seemingly small treatment. Give us a call and we'll give you the shape you’re looking for in no time.

Laser Hair Removal for Unwanted Facial & Body Hair - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Summer is just around the corner and women are already beginning to worry about the state of their legs. In winter, hairy legs can go unnoticed for weeks, however it is harder to cover them up during the sunnier weather, unless you are planning to wear trousers throughout the summer!

For lots of women, finding a way to achieve smooth, hairless summer legs seems like a mission impossible. Every year, women try to find new ways to tackle unwanted body hair, with some preferring to shave, some waxing, plucking or using depilatory creams, while others prefer to get rid of the hair permanently, and go for laser hair removal.

Over a lifetime, women spend thousands of pounds on hair removal products, whether that is disposable razors, electrolysis, depilatory creams and sprays or waxing, either at home or in a beauty salons. It’s certainly not cheap having to de-fuzz hairy legs, underarms or even that embarrassing upper lip and chin hair! You might think that laser hair removal would be more expensive than these treatments, but over a lifetime, it works out much cheaper.

Shaving, plucking, waxing and creams are all time-consuming and what's more, only temporary. Although electrolysis can permanently remove hair, it's a very slow and painful hair removal treatment, and it can sometimes result in scarring. Laser hair removal can achieve long-lasting results, treating both large and small areas quickly and effectively.

Area's for hair removal:

• Upper lip
• Chin
• Forearms
• Underarms
• Legs
• Bikini line
• Back

When you think of all the nicks and cuts from shaving, the painful ingrown hairs, the red bumps, overall itchiness and the trauma of strange women pouring wax on your nether regions, while you lay with your legs splayed out in the air... well, there just has to be a better way! No-one likes being hairy, especially in places that aren't supposed to be hairy.

Laser hair removal procedures have been around for  a few years now and still ranks as one of the most popular beauty treatments out there, and it's not going anywhere, anytime soon.

So if the thought of not having to shave is tempting, then laser hair removal is the way to go. The laser beam passes through the skin to an individual hair follicle. The intense heat of the laser damages the hair follicle, without harming the surrounding skin, and stops future hair growth. Selston Cosmetic Clinic uses the most advanced Laser Technology to offer a safe and effective way to reduce unwanted body and facial hair.

Benefits:

• Procedure Time - small areas from 15 minutes
• Treatment Course - 6 treatments, 4 weeks apart
• Back to Work - the next day
• Duration of Results - 1 year plus
• Anaesthetic - Local
• Results Seen - 12 Weeks

Depending on the area, treatment can take from 10 minutes for the upper lip to 45 minutes for the back. Most clients experience minimal discomfort, some may experience a minor stinging sensation on the skin as we deliver the laser pulses. We offer a topical anaesthetic cream to make treatments more comfortable.

The Selston Cosmetic Clinic's advanced laser system is equipped with a cooled sapphire window on our laserscope to further protect and cool the surface of the skin, while allowing laser light to heat the hair follicle beneath the skin. Only 30% of your hair is usually in the growth phase at any one time and the laser can only target these. Therefore a series of treatments are required to achieve long-term results.

Once your treatment session is complete, you are free to resume your normal routine. Some clients might experience a slight redness in the treated area, but this should resolve in a day or two.

Then you are free to experience a hair-free summer!

Facial Spider Veins - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield and Chesterfield.

Facial Veins

Spider veins on the face are something you see on many people and this is often a cause of great embarrassment.
They are placed prominently on the face, around the nose or cheeks and can cause great anxiety since they are not easy to hide.

What are facial veins :
Facial spider veins are tiny blood vessels which run close to the surface of the skin and look like fine red, or sometimes purple, wiggly lines.
They are sometimes called 'thread veins' or 'broken veins'  The tiny veins just under the surface of the skin are delicate.
Sometimes these veins dilate and break, the veins will remain that way and won't constrict back to their normal thickness or repair themselves.
While spider veins do occur on the legs, a great number of them also happen on the face, around the nose, cheeks, and chin.

Who gets facial veins :
Anyone can get facial spider veins.
Ageing cause the weakening of veins and skin, and the ageing skin can make spider veins more noticeable.

What causes facial veins :
Facial spider veins can become more prominent as we get older, but there are actually six main triggers that can provoke them at any age.
These are: pregnancy, chronic sun exposure, temperature extremes, excess alcohol, facial injuries and high blood pressure.
Also scrubbing your face too vigorously or washing with water that's too hot can also cause facial veins.
Age, lifestyle, rosacea and smoking can also play their part.

How do you treat facial veins :
Selston Cosmetic Clinic has state-of-the-art Laserscope Aura-i and Lyra-i laser systems to safely and painlessly treat facial spider veins.
The photo's show our amazing results.

The safest, most effective treatment for spider veins on the face is laser treatment. A laser is applied to the skin directly above the spider veins and the energy from the laser is preferentially absorbed by coloured tissues, such as spider veins.
The energy causes the spider veins to heat up and collapse. After treatment, the body slowly re-absorbs the veins.

Laser treatment takes only 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the area to be treated and recovery on most people takes no time at all.
The skin over the treated area might be mildly sensitive for a few days after treatment.

The appearance of spider veins will greatly improve after just one treatment. However, to fully remove spider veins most people will need two or three sessions.
Repeat treatments are scheduled a month apart and after the treated veins disappear, they will not reoccur.

PDO Threadlifts - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield and Chesterfield.

PDO Threadlifts


Getting older happens to us all and the worst part is watching the way our face changes. Have you started looking in the mirror and not liking what you see ?
Are you starting to get a saggy face ? Got some jowls at the jaw ? drooping eyelids ? And are you starting to avoid looking in the mirror because you are so self-conscious of your faults.

As we age we tend to lose the volume in various areas of our face. Also the elasticity of the skin  loosens and this leads to wrinkles and sagging skin.
The nose to mouth lines develop and that's when we get jowls.

Luckily these problems can be rectified. And PDO Threads are the answer !
These days women prefer less invasive and non-invasive procedures that involves less recovery time and less self care after the treatment.

PDO threadlifts are essentially a facelift without surgery. There are no incisions or cuts,  just simple injections placed in strategic places.
The procedure is very simple, similar to dermal fillers, but in this procedure we leave a thread inside instead of filler.

PDO threads immediately lift the skin, creating more volume and then they stimulate collagen production in the area to give tighter skin and a more youthful look.
PDO threads have been used in heart surgery for many years and are perfectly safe.
You may have read recently that EastEnders actress Gillian Taylforth, has turned back time with a non-surgical facelift which used a dissolvable thread to remove wrinkles.

PDO threads are extremely versatile and can be used all around the face and neck. They can treat vertical and horizontal wrinkles on the forehead, sagging brows, drooping cheeks, saggy jawline, neck folds and wrinkles on the chin..

We offer this treatment at the Selston Cosmetic Clinic, where after a consultation with Dr Bassi to discuss your needs, the procedure can be performed and give you amazing results.
Check out our before and after photo's.

The thread is used to give a tailor-made result, lifting specific parts of the face.
Beforehand, an injection of local anaesthetic is given, which dramatically reduces any discomfort from the injections.
The PDO threads are injected and they lift and tighten the skin by promoting collagen and elastin and smooth the skin by promoting the formation of  hyalauronic acid, which improves skin hydration / moisturisation.
Wrinkles will be reduced and crepe-like skin will look more youthful

So if you want to redefine your face but you don’t want surgery - Give us a call !

Non-Surgical Nose Job - Nottingham, Derby , Mansfield and Chesterfield.

Non-surgical Nose Job using Fillers

Sometimes childhood taunts that began in the playground, maybe thoughtless remarks at work or just the fact that we hate our profile are enough to affect our self-esteem and make us unhappy with our appearance.

Most people are happy enough with their face, but they aren’t quite as happy with the shape of their nose. When we look in the mirror, the nose is one of the first features we notice, but unfortunately, mirrors can often show us exactly what we don't want to see.

Noses come in all shapes and sizes and when a person is unhappy with their nose, for whatever reason, that is why they visit a cosmetic doctor.
Sometimes they are seeking to correct a broken nose, a bump on the top or they just want to give themselves a better profile.

For those not interested in a traditional nose job, then the non-surgical nose job option, which is one that uses a dermal filler to smooth out nasal bumps and lumps is the one for you.

A Non-surgical nose job (Rhinoplasty) is a procedure that is done using dermal fillers rather than a scalpel and one which will achieve moderate nose shaping. 
A skilled cosmetic doctor can use a combination of dermal fillers to fill depressions or add volume to the nose or in the surrounding tissue to create your desired look.

The non surgical nose job is a cosmetic procedure which can level out lumps, lift the angle of the tip or smooth the appearance of bumps on the bridge, but what it can't do is reduce the size of someone's nose.
At the Selston Cosmetic Clinic we have vast experience doing non-surgical nose jobs.
Dr Bassi is a fully trained cosmetic practitioner in advanced filler techniques.
The photo's show some of our fantastic results.

20 minutes before the procedure a numbing cream is applied. The Radiesse dermal filler is then expertly injected into the appropriate nasal areas.
Other than some occasional minor bruising, there are generally no side effects from dermal filler treatments, so in most cases, the majority of patients people return to work the same day or following day after having a non-surgical nose job.
 
There are no bandages or coverings to wear after the injections are done so most people resume normal activities right away.
The Radiesse filler does not migrate or lump together in the tissues and when it does break down, 8 to 10 months later, it does so symmetrically and evenly.
No two faces are the same, so Dr Bassi tailors his remodelling treatment to each individual patient, to help them look and feel their best.

Mole Removal - Nottingham, Derby , Mansfield and Chesterfield.

Mole Removal


Almost everyone has moles on their skin and nearly all of them are harmless.
Moles occur when cells in the skin grow in a cluster instead of being spread throughout the skin. Moles are often a brownish colour, although some may be darker or skin-coloured. They can be flat or raised, smooth or rough, and some have hair growing from them. They are usually circular or oval with a smooth edge.

Society unfairly criticizes and makes fun of people with moles, especially on the face. Movies and TV shows over the years often seem to characterise the baddies, the wicked people and wrong 'uns with moles and warts on their face.

Some celebrities have defining moles (or 'beauty spots' as some call them) including Cindy Crawford, Mariah Carey, Eva Mendes and of course Marilyn Monroe. And whilst these stars opted to keep their moles, it has to be said that theirs are small, neat and quite unobtrusive. It wouldn't quite be as alluring if Marilyn had a dark brown hairy mole on her face, would it ?
On the other hand, gorgeous Enrique Iglesias, Sarah Jessica Parker and Madonna all had a mole removal procedure.

Moles can be irritating, annoying and even painful and they can really affect our self confidence.
Unlike a concealed mole on your back or leg, a facial mole or those on the neck are out there for everyone to see. And, as with spots and pimples, it seems to be an involuntary reflex to touch them, as if to check that they are still there ! You can try to hide them under make-up but you are still very much aware that they are still there.... lurking.

It can also be very irritating when moles catch on your jewellery and clothes and shaving can be a nightmare, trying to shave around the mole.

There are a few ways to get rid of unwanted moles.
The preferred method at the Selston Cosmetic Clinic is radio frequency for mole removal as it is ideal for facial moles.

We use state of the art technology that produces radio waves which instantly vaporises the moles, and results in much less scarring.
As our before and after photo's show the results are amazing !

Come to us for a consultation where our cosmetic doctor, Dr Bassi will take a clinical history and your mole removal method will be discussed.

It is a simple, quick, painless procedure and the results are instant. The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic and there are no incisions or stitches !
Full healing occurs within 4-6 weeks and only one single visit is required !

So give us a call and return your skin to its natural beauty.

Vaser Hi Def.. Selston Cosmetic Clinic.. 6 months later...

This gentleman in his late thirties, travelled from Brighton to Nottingham for his Vaser Lipo procedure. He goes to the gym regularly, doing cardio and lifting weights.

He was unable to achieve that athletic look despite all his efforts.

Interestingly he runs his own cosmetic forum on line. 

He told us he came to us after extensive research on the internet and seeing reviews about us on real self, which in his own words were 'very positive'.

The reviews were also backed up by the clients own before and after pictures. 

Our website has a large plethora of before and after Vaser Lipo and Vaser Lipo Hi Def  pictures.. do have a look!

The after video which our client took himself, shows excellent definition which is only going to get better as he trains further.

This following young man in his mid thirties travelled from London to Nottingham to have his Vaser Lipo Hi def procedure.

The procedure was a two stage procedure. He had his abdomen done first, followed by the flanks.

Dr Bassi breaks the procedure into 2 stages, as he believes the client has much better results and pain control, as we can flood the area with generous amounts of local anaesthetic and extract the maximum amount of fat.

We can offer a one stage procedure but this is under conscious sedation needing a consultant anaesthetist present.

The advantages of this is that it is done in one stage, but the cost is the same as having a 2 stage procedure. We firmly believe two stage procedures give you better results, the results are equivalent as if you were having the procedure done under general anaesthetic in hospital.

This young man's before and after photo/video, the latter is taken 4 weeks apart, clearly shows definition and sculpting. He starting to train soon and full results will be seen in 3 to 4 months.

Lip Enhancement/Augmentation Nottingham, Derby, Chesterfield and Mansfield.

Selston Cosmetic Clinic's lip clinic is the way to head if you want defined, elegant lucious lips.

Lip enhancement involves placing the filler over the borders of the lips. Lip augmentation involves placing the the filler in the body of the lip. This technique involves precision placement and various techniques are used to do this.

Dr Bassi has great experience combing lip enhancement and lip augmentation to produce natural looking results.

Trout pouts should be a thing of the past!

Prior to the procedure a detailed history and consent form is filled out. The outline of your lips and potential results are discussed.

We recommend Emla cream to be applied 30 minutes before the procedure. This is a numbing cream and numbs the whole area so the procedure is relatively painless.

A local anaesthetic injection can be given to numb the area but this sometimes makes the lips lopsided like a dental injection, so when you are having lip enhancement/augmentation, it is difficult to judge the result until the aneasthetic has worn off.

Our lip fillers are advanced Hylauronic acid based fillers, not animal based fillers. Hylauronic acid occurs naturally in the body.

We use Teosyal Kiss or the Juverderm range as these products are market leaders producing excellent results and lasting up to 8 months.

Our lip filler clinic serves clients from Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield and Chesterfield, but we have clients travelling up from London for this treatment due to results and word of mouth. 

Dr Bassi, our lead injector creates natural looking lips which balance the ratio of your face.

5 Reasons for Laser Hair Removal

5 reasons for Laser Hair Removal 

To Save Money — Laser hair removal is permanent hair removal, which may seem expensive, however when you add up what you will continue spending over a lifetime on shaving, waxing or other temporary methods it becomes a great investment.

2. To Save Time — Eliminate the need for daily shaving or monthly waxing. No more having to miss your lunch hour to wax, or wake up early each morning to shave, laser hair removal eliminates hair permanently.

3. To Eliminate Ingrown Hairs — Ingrown hairs can be unsightly, uncomfortable and make you self-consciousness. By eliminating the hair through laser hair removal, you will eliminate ingrown hairs.

4. To Regain Self-Confidence — Whether you are a woman with facial hair or hair in other undesired places, or a man with an overly hairy back or chest, excessive or unwanted hair can take a toll on one’s self esteem. Laser hair removal can eliminate unwanted hair and help you regain that lost confidence.

5. To Get Smoother Skin — Removing hair with laser hair removal can give you much smoother and sexier skin than any other hair removal methods. Also, with laser hair removal there is no need to let the hair grow out, creating uncomfortable in-between growth stages.

PDO Thread Lifts Selston Cosmetic Clinic

At Selston we have recently started to do PDO Thread Lifts. This is an exciting new treatment that will give the ability to reduce jowls without the need for a face lift! 

The threads are injected in the same way we use Dermal Fillers. The actual thread is what is used in open heart surgery and will dissolve at around 6 months. By this time the collagen will have been rebuilt and the effects will last up to two years. 

The threads can be used all over the face and will combine beautifully with Dermal Filler to give a rejuvenated new you!
