Laser Away Unwanted Face & Body Hair - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Our hair is an important part of our body and it's even known as our crowning glory. Hair can grow on many parts of the body and it looks fantastic on such places such as the scalp, eyelashes, and the eyebrows, but hair might be unwelcome on other parts of the face and body. All of us have hair, but the normal amount of face and body hair varies from person to person, usually it's fair and fine and is difficult to see, but those with darker hair are not so lucky.

For women, the hair on the upper lip, chin, cheeks and sideburns can all be very embarrassing and cause a great deal of insecurity. It seems that every time you think you've disposed of unwanted hair, you'll find more of it sprouting up somewhere else, and even after you get rid of the hairs, they just grow back.

Removing unwanted hair is time-consuming and repetitive no matter what your preferred hair removal method is, and whether you shave, pluck, wax, thread or use depilatory creams, the hair will always grow back. You'll find the skin on your face is sensitive and constantly using harsh hair removal treatments can actually cause a great deal of skin irritation.

You can cover up excess hair in areas that aren't constantly exposed, but the hair on your face is always on display, and it can seem like everyone is looking at the hairs on your upper lip, chin or sideburns. A good way to get rid of unwanted hair is with laser hair removal treatment.

Over the last couple of decades the demand for hair removal from both men and women alike has grown immensely making it one of the fastest growing treatments within the cosmetic industry.

Benefits of laser hair removal:

• It permanently reduces hair
• It's a fast treatment time
• The results will boost your self-confidence
• Prevents razor bumps and irritation
• Laser treatment causes only minimal discomfort

Everyone is different. Some people have more hair than others, and some have different skin tones and textures, which all contribute to the number of laser treatments you'll need. Most people will need about 6 to 10 sessions to see optimal and effective results. Most clients experience minimal discomfort; some may experience a minor stinging or pinching sensation on the skin as we deliver the laser pulses, but we can offer topical anaesthetic cream to make treatments more comfortable.

Look Younger with a Selston Sculpt Face Lift - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

There are lots of things that cause our skin to age. There are some things we can't do anything about and there's others we can influence, but one thing that we can't change is the natural ageing process. Over time, we'll all get visible lines on our face and it's only natural for the face to lose some of its youthful fullness and our skin to become thinner and drier.

A face that ages gracefully is a beautiful thing, but there are changes that occur with age that we would like to slow down. We would all like to hide our lines and wrinkles, cover up crow’s feet, fill out sunken cheeks and get rid of the bags under our eyes and get back the skin we had in our youth.

Smooth Away Lines & Wrinkles With Botox - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

We all want to look as young as we can, for as long as we can. How we look after our skin and our lifestyle choices can all play a part in delaying the signs of ageing, although we do have to accept that ageing is both natural, and inevitable. Lines on the face are a sign of stress or age, but you can easily smooth away the fine lines and wrinkles with a quick five-minute treatment. It will leave you looking completely fresh, less worried and more awake. Subtly administered botox injections will give your face a soft natural, refreshed look.

The ageing process shows on our face, and this happens for a variety of reasons:
* Time naturally takes its toll
* Exposure to the sun breaks down elastin fibres
* Hormonal changes cause a loss of density on the skin
* Smokers tend to have more wrinkles than non-smokers
* Repetitive muscle movement can cause deep set lines and wrinkles

Wrinkles are the folds and creases that appear on the skin and are a natural part of the ageing process. The primary cause of facial wrinkles are the repetitive movements used when we make our facial expressions, and over time they form crows feet, frown lines and marionette lines. Lines around the mouth and lips start to appear when we pucker up the lips when smoking. The skin is also exposed every day to the elements; the wind, sun, dirt, and pollution, and it's inevitable that this will eventually affect the skin in noticeable ways.

• Fine lines are shallow and they're found in areas of facial movement, such as the eyes, mouth and upper lip, from laughing, smoking, eating and squinting.
• Wrinkles are depressions in the surface of the skin which can look either coarse or fine.
• Deep set wrinkles are expression lines and they're usually found on the forehead, the corners of the eyes and vertical lines on the side of the mouth, usually caused by frowning, raising your eyebrows and smiling.

Botox is an effective anti-ageing and anti-wrinkle treatment. The treatment is safe, affordable, convenient and fast, and the procedure is usually completed within 15 or 20 minutes. The results will last for at least 3 or 4 months. The botox injections are non-invasive and are very popular, offering people of all ages a way to, not only reduce the wrinkles, but also have strategically placed injections as a preventive measure to stop new wrinkles forming.

Remove Unwanted Fat with Vaser Lipo - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Lots of things can happen during our life that will cause our body to change, and pregnancy, losing or gaining weight and even gravity can affect the skin's elasticity. For those who struggle with their weight and find that dieting and exercising just isn't working for them, then cosmetic procedures can help to enhance the body's overall contour and silhouette, achieving a tighter more youthful appearance. 

Vaser lipo is a treatment guaranteed to dramatically transform your body. It uses a precise, but minimally invasive liposuction technology to give you the amazing results you've been looking for. Vaser lipo is the procedure you need if you want to refine and sculpt your figure, and also to take away unwanted fat.

Important benefits of Vaser Lipo:

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

Before undergoing vaser lipo you should try to exercise to tone your muscles as much as possible, as this will give your body a better overall shape once the excess fat is removed. Exercising will also help to keep you healthy and make sure you are fit and well for your treatment. Vaser lipo can help you look your very best, whether it's a simple improvement in a particular problem area or a major full-body transformation.

Vaser lipo offers lots of advantages over traditional liposuction treatments.

* The vaser procedure doesn't need any large incisions.
* The treatment is tissue-selective, only targeting the fat, leaving other tissues protected from any damage.
* It's powerful enough to deal with large areas of fat but it's gentle on core areas such as the arms, chin and neck.
* Recovery time is much shorter as there's less damage to surrounding tissues and blood vessels.
* It leaves the skin smooth and the body beautifully contoured.

Vaser lipo is a minimally invasive procedure, so any pain is minor. We numb the treatment areas with local anaesthetic and make only very small incisions into the skin to fit the thin suction tubes. There is normally no need for any stitches. In many cases the results become visible after only one treatment and you will be able to see your new changed shape as soon as your vaser treatment has finished.

Smooth the Face & Reduce Acne Scarring with Microdermabrasion - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Acne is an embarrassing condition, no matter what age you get it. It's bad enough getting a face full of spots, but it's even worse when it leaves your face with pock marks and minor scars. Those with acne on their face know how much discomfort and embarrassment it can cause, but the scars that get left on the skin can also make us feel very uncomfortable.

Even if you no longer have active acne, there's a good chance you'll have acne scars somewhere on your face. Having acne and living with its after-effects isn't just confined to our teenage years, the scars and pock-marks left on our face can last a lifetime. None of us are perfect, we all have flaws, but over the years we still spend large amounts of time and money trying to disguise them. But fortunately, you don't have to suffer permanently as there are treatments available to help repair the damage.

The top layer of our skin replaces itself about every 28 days through shedding, which is known as exfoliation. Microdermabrasion treatment speeds up the rate at which the skin normally renews itself, revealing new, fresh glowing skin. Medical grade microdermabrasion machines will offer treatments, for mild exfoliation to deeper medical treatments, and this translates into more impressive and lasting results to you.

Medical microdermabrasion is a safe, controlled treatment that will intensely exfoliate and resurface the skin. It smooths the skin, removing small scars, uneven skin tone, birthmarks, sun damage and liver spots. The treatment polishes the outer layers of the skin, revealing a healthy fresh complexion, while helping to reduce acne scars and skin imperfections.

Microdermabrasion treatment is suitable for all skin types, and it helps to promote the growth of new skin and collagen which thickens the dermis and improves resistance to the effect of ageing. Recovery time is negligible, you can return to work, or your normal activities immediately after your treatment.

Microdermabrasion was first developed in Italy in 1985, and today there are hundreds of microdermabrasion machines available. They all have the same basic design, to exfoliate dead skin cells, creating a smooth, even skin texture and providing a perfect surface for applying make-up. If the procedure is done regularly it will promote collagen and help to stop future acne breakouts.

Medical microdermabrasion is a safe procedure for women and men and it can treat specific skin conditions or be done as a facial treatment to keep the skin in good condition.

Semi-Permanent Micro Blading Eye Brows - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

If you have a busy schedule and want to save time, you could definitely benefit from having semi-permanent make-up treatment. Imagine getting out of the bed every morning with your make-up already applied, well, semi-permanent make-up can make this a reality.

Semi-permanent make-up can stay in the skin for several years so you shouldn't rush into having treatment. It's wise to find a reputable technician, with the correct qualifications and training to avoid any unfortunate mistakes. This treatment can help you to create your ideal look, which might be anything from a natural understated appearance to an adventurous and glamorous style.

Before you go for any facial enhancements, you should do some research

* Make sure the technician is fully trained, fully insured and fully licensed with the local council
* Choose someone who is on trend and up to date with current trends and techniques
* Check out photos of their work on their websites and on social media
* Don't have treatment done at your home, always go to a shop, clinic or salon
* Have a consultation to discuss what you want and what will suit you
* Over time the colour will fade to a softer colour complimenting the skin tone

Semi-permanent make-up has become really popular over the past decade, and over the past few years micro blading has become a treatment that's often asked for. Micro blading the eye brows individually with strokes of colour makes them look natural, unlike the block of colour that happens when you pencil them on.

Micro blading is a technique where we put small particles of pigment into the eyebrows to create extra fine hair strokes. It's done with a hand-held tool, featuring several tiny needles in a row to deposit dye into the dermal second layer of the skin. It's a cosmetic form of tattooing which puts pigment into the skin, but doesn't go as deep as a normal tattoo would. The colour should last between 12-18 months and then you should return and have a colour treatment boost, to freshen up the colours.

A consultation before any treatment is important, as this is when you will learn exactly what's involved in your chosen treatment. The process will be fully explained and they will be able to answer any questions you might have. The technician will find out what you want, and work with you to create your new look.

Refresh & Rejuvenate Your Face With a Chemical Peel - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

As we get older our skin can begin to look dull, the texture can become uneven and we might even have some acne scars, but surprisingly, lying just beneath the surface of our skin could be a spotless, line-free and flawless complexion. If we are unhappy at the state of our skin then a chemical peel treatment can improve the texture and tone on the face, leaving us with improved, visible results, without any irritation or shredding of the skin.

Chemical peels are a widely used part of cosmetic treatments, and they can help rectify a number of skin concerns. The treatments penetrate into the skin without causing irritation, unclogging facial pores and stimulating collagen production. They are most often used as an anti-ageing treatment, to improve fine lines, acne scars and skin discolouration or simply to freshen up the skin.

The acid in the chemical peel lifts away the dead cells in minutes, triggering a chain reaction:

* It causes exfoliation of the top layer of the skin

* Once the skin is shed, the living cells below will multiply and move up.

* This will increase collagen production, making hyaluronic acid which results in a fresher, younger  looking face.

Regularly removing dead skin cells will freshen up your skin, giving it a fresh and youthful glow. It will even out the skin tone, reduce age spots, give you a better skin quality, as well as giving your skin-care and make-up products, a smoother base to sit on. The peels penetrate into the dermis of the skin and stimulate the fibroblasts deep within the skin, producing new and improved collagen and elastin and increasing the skin cell turnover.

Benefits of chemical peels:

• Penetrate deep enough to remove the top layer of skin, which will even out your skin tone.
• Reduce or take away blotchy patches that cause the skin to look dull.
• Remove the sun damaged top layer of skin, leaving behind a fresh and smooth layer.
• They can help clear up inflammations and even acne scars.
• A fast and simple treatment. The average procedure takes around 30-40 minutes.

Chemical peels offer a non-invasive, quick-fix solution, without the need for surgery. Lasers treatments can target problems but they can prove expensive, so chemical peels are ideal for customers looking for an effective, less expensive option.

Remove Unwanted Bra & Back Fat With Vaser Lipo - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

There comes a time when where you once had a smooth silhouette, now all you can see is a roll of fat, bulging from under your underwear. There's nothing worse than bra fat pushing its way through the fabric after you've spent a small fortune on a new outfit. When we put on weight, it doesn't spread evenly on the body and women tend to accumulate excess fat across their back, which leads to bulges where the bra strap sits, and this can make them feel self-conscious about how they look in the clothes they wear.

The fitter and healthier we look, the happier it will make us feel, but as we get older we find that there are some stubborn areas of fat that can be very hard to get rid of, and even when we eat healthily and do regular exercise, it won't always tone us up. Fortunately, vaser lipo is a treatment that takes away our unwanted fat and is an excellent, efficient method of tackling this problem.

Back fat can occur even on people who are slim and toned, and it appears as bulges or rolls. It's hard to lose back fat by simply dieting and exercising, which makes vaser lipo the ideal procedure to correct these problem areas. At Selston Cosmetic Clinic, when we perform the vaser lipo procedure on back fat, we use local anaesthetic to numb the area. During treatment we take all areas of the back into consideration, which will leave you with a consistent and natural appearance after the treatment.

Vaser lipo is a minimally invasive, walk-in walk-out alternative to traditional liposuction, and the treatment allows clients to sculpt their back and deliver toning in this area. At the end of the vaser lipo treatment, you will finally feel able to show off your body, confidently wearing clothes that fit your style without any restrictions or concerns.

Getting rid of back fat, just like fat on other areas of the body, can sometimes prove exceptionally stubborn, no matter what amount of exercise you do or how healthy your diet is. The skin on our back is thicker and the fat deposits are more fibrous, making it a more difficult area to treat. Vaser lipo allows a greater deal of selection than other procedures, which means it's particularly effective in treating the back.
