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

Losing weight seems to get harder as we get older and it can cause frustration when you exercise and eat right, but you're still not happy about the way you look. You might spend a lot of time in the gym trying to target a particular area, but find that no matter how great those muscles begin to look, you just can't get rid of all the fat on top of them. 

Lots of women find that they get unwanted problem areas with fat settling on the tummy, hips and bottom, especially after having children, and both sexes can find themselves starting to acquire middle-aged spread, or maybe fat on the upper arms, back fat that bulges out from under the bra and some men even get fatty breasts. A good way to get rid of these unsightly bulges and keep up a slimmer, healthy-looking body is by having Vaser Lipo, which is a procedure that's ideal for different body types and body problem areas.


The most common body areas for Vaser Lipo are;
  • Waist - Love handles, on both men and women, can prove very hard to get rid of, but elasticity in the waist area can get excellent results with Vaser.
  • Hips - The hips are a problem area for lots of women as they can gradually merge into the waist area. Vaser treatment can shape this area to create a curvy feminine silhouette.
  • Flanks - The flank area is in the lower back area above the panty line and Vaser treatment on this area is usually done at the same time as the waist, giving an even and smooth contour.
  • Chest - Men tend to lose muscle mass of the chest as they age, resulting in a flabby appearance, whilst other men suffer from gynecomastia, or man boobs, both can easily be treated with Vaser Lipo.
  • Upper arms - Excess fat and tissue in the upper arms is a common sign of getting older. Vaser treatment can tone the arm area giving them a youthful look.
  • Lower abdomen - treatment can result in a tighter and more toned tummy.
  • Upper abdomen - is the area between the tummy button and the ribs.
  • Inner thighs - Some women want Vaser of the inner thigh to stop their inner thighs from rubbing together and to create a thigh gap.
  • Outer thighs - Usually known as saddle bags, the outer thigh is a common problem area for lots of women.
  • Back - Known as back fat, bra fat or fat rolls. The back is a great area for Vaser Lipo as the skin in that area is thick and forgiving.
  • Chin / Knees / Neck - Delicate areas can benefit from precise Vaser treatment.


As long as you are eating healthy and exercising regularly, a Vaser Lipo procedure will help you take away the unwanted fat in your problem areas. Vaser treatment has unrivalled accuracy, the process is so precise making it a great treatment for delicate areas, leaving you without bruising and scars.

PDO Threadlifts to Lift & Tighten The Facial Skin - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Our skin's elasticity loosens as we grow older and we tend to lose volume in various areas of our face. Ageing can lead to the start of wrinkles and sagging skin, developing into nose to mouth lines and these can result in jowls. If you don't want to have an invasive surgical facelift, then a non-surgical treatment is the solution.

Lot's of people are looking for treatments to lift and rejuvenate the face using non-invasive treatments and PDO thread lifts can deliver this and give you excellent results. PDO thread lift treatment will immediately lift the skin, creating more volume, stimulating collagen production in the area and tightening the skin, leaving you with a more youthful look.


PDO thread lifts are ideal to use on:
*  Sagging jowls
*  Eye bags
*  Drooping upper eyebrows

The procedure lifts the face at targeted points, stimulating ongoing collagen and elastin production, which will make your skin feel and look firmer. It will smooth wrinkles, tighten your skin and define the jaw line, creating a gentle lift which will give you natural-looking results. After an application of topical anaesthetic cream, a very fine needle will insert the threads. These dissolvable threads will discreetly hold repositioned skin and facial tissue in place and as there aren't any cuts or incisions, there's no scarring.

The advantages of having PDO thread lift treatment include:
*  Instant results
*  They improve the skin's texture and tone
*  Increase of collagen production
*  No cuts or incisions
*  Skin tightening
*  Minimal down time
*  The procedure has a high safety profile


PDO thread lift treatment uses simple injections to place the threads just beneath the surface of the skin in strategic places, without making any cuts or incisions. These threads are made from the same material as surgical sutures which after a while will dissolve inside the body. The threads create three effects; they lift, tighten and smooth out the skin.

The PDO thread lift procedure can treat either all of your face, or just partial areas, depending on your needs and it will combine beautifully with dermal filler. The threads are extremely versatile, and will give amazing results around the face and neck. They can treat vertical and horizontal wrinkles on the forehead, sagging brows, drooping cheeks, a sagging jaw line, neck folds and wrinkles on the chin. The results deliver a naturally attractive, subtle lift, that will give a refreshed, rejuvenated youthful look.'

Rejuvenate An Ageing Face With A Liquid Facelift - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

As the years go by, we begin to notice signs of ageing as they start showing on our face. Ageing brings about many changes in the face and we'll start to notice fine lines and wrinkles and dull, tired skin as the skin loses collagen and elasticity and starts to sag. We also lose volume, and this makes the cheeks and temples look flatter and hollow, the lips can become thinner and less defined and troughs can appear beneath the eyes. Wrinkles and fine lines will also, sooner or later make their presence felt.

With so many treatments available to rejuvenate the skin we can find very hard to know which one is the best for us. The liquid facelift has made a big impact during the past few years, aiming to treat the upper, mid and lower areas of the face, to create a refreshed, balanced appearance that is subtle and entirely natural looking. The non-surgical liquid facelift procedure uses injectable treatments; botox to ease the look of wrinkles, folds and creases and strategically placed dermal fillers to help increase the volume and the shape of your face.


Botox
We use botox injections to freshen up the face, softening fine lines and wrinkles and eliminating frown lines, crows feet and forehead furrows. Strategically placed, botox can also give you an eye lift and lift the corners of the mouth.

Dermal fillers
Dermal Fillers injections will add volume to fill out the hollows in the cheeks, the troughs under the eyes, they'll plump up the lips and create a softly contoured, more youthful-looking face. Some of the most ageing lines and creases on the face are in the area between the nose and mouth, but they can easily be corrected with dermal fillers.


When using dermal fillers and botox injections together, it's now possible for a skilled cosmetic doctor to help you look younger and more refreshed within the hour. The liquid facelift treatments will restore the skin and the facial contours to its former youthfulness, and after the treatment you'll not only appreciate your reflection in the mirror, but you'll also get a boost in your self-confidence.

A liquid facelift can address many of the signs of ageing, without the need for invasive cosmetic surgery. It's a quick and effective treatment that's minimally invasive and is a walk in, walk out procedure. It has long-lasting results and a short recovery time with only minimal swelling and bruising.

Treatments For Rejunenating The Ageing Face - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

Normal signs of ageing on the face can include fine lines and wrinkles, sagging and volume loss, and unfortunately these issues will only intensify over time. Our skin naturally starts to lose elasticity  causing wrinkles, and things like repeated facial expressions, sun exposure, smoking, poor diet and dehydration will all speed up the natural ageing process, causing wrinkles.


Our skin ages in different ways:
  • Wrinkles -  Skin loses some of its elasticity causing wrinkles and fine lines. As it becomes thinner and drier, we will notice new wrinkles appearing around the neck, eyes, forehead, mouth and lips. Repetitive movements of the face over the years are usually the cause of these lines.
  • Frown lines - Frequent frowning when concentrating or worrying, can cause deep forehead furrows.
  • Eye Lines - Wrinkles appear at the outer corners of the eyes, caused by squinting in sunshine, reading in dim light, or looking at the computer screen.
  • Mouth lines - Fine lines around the edges of the mouth and lips are usually caused by smoking, pursing the lips or puckering up the lips when drinking through a straw.

Loss of volume
A dramatic change to the skin as we reach our thirties, is the loss of collagen. Collagen production starts to diminish over time, leaving fine lines and wrinkles and a loss of skin elasticity. We'll lose plumpness in the face because of fat and tissue loss under the skin. This lost volume can make the face look gaunt and hollow, especially around the eyes and the cheeks.

The natural rate of ageing causes some of our wrinkles, sagging and volume loss, but there are some characteristics of ageing which are completely out of our control; like genetics, anatomy and gravity. However, there are cosmetic procedures available which can help to slow down the ageing process.


Profhilo - This contains pure hyaluronic acid with no added chemicals, making it an extremely safe cosmetic treatment, with no risks. The slow release of hyaluronic acid injections stimulates four different types of collagen and elastin, which results in significant improvement of tissue quality. Profhilo is an injectable treatment that can both prevent and correct the signs of ageing.

Botox - The signs of facial ageing can easily be reduced or eliminated by botox treatment, resulting in a natural and more youthful appearance.

Dermal fillers - The precise placing of fillers gives a natural filled out appearance to the hollows in sunken cheeks and under eye troughs and softens deep grooves, giving you dramatic results.

Fillers, Botox & Profhilo Treatments To Rejuvenate Your Face - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

When we are young we have smooth skin and fullness in the upper areas of the face, but as time goes by we'll find that the years of sun exposure, pollution and everyday stress has affected our appearance. As we age, the body loses elasticity and it will produce less of the natural substances, like collagen, which we need to keep our skin firm and well hydrated, which all cause facial lines and wrinkles to appear.

Dermal Fillers
Getting wrinkles and creases on the face is part of the ageing process, and they begin to appear as the collagen and elastin fibres break down, but they can also result from excessive frowning, smiling or squinting.

Dynamic lines
Dynamic are when lines, wrinkles and other signs of ageing occur on the face when it's in motion. They're also called expression lines; laughter lines, frown lines and bunny lines. These are harmless at a younger age but they are an indication of where the deeper set wrinkles and folds will remain in later life.

Static lines
Static lines are noticeable wrinkles, lines, sagging and folds which are present on the resting face. These lines, if left untreated, will stay on the face and will progressively worsen.

Botox

Dermal Fillers, Botox and Profhilo treatments are very effective for both men and women. 

  • Fillers will fill lost volume on the face, hands and body. They will fill hollows, plump up thin lips, soften folds and wrinkles on the face and improve scars and other facial defects.
  • Botox can ease the fine lines and wrinkles that appear on the face through repetitive facial movements. Small amounts of Botox will smooth out the lines, but will leave you with natural, relaxed facial expressions.
  • Profhilo is a treatment which can work almost anywhere; the face, neck, décolleté, hands, arms and knees, places where the skin is starting to show noticeable signs of ageing. This treatment will immediately show a noticeable improvement in skin tone, hydration as well as firmness, and reducing fine lines.
Profhilo

We start to age when we are about 25
Our skin cell turnover slows down and dead cells remain on the skin creating a dull appearance
We can begin to notice fine wrinkles around the eyes
The lines from the nose to mouth become more prominent
Our jaw line starts to soften and can lose definition

From age 35 to 45
Lines and wrinkles can deepen
Frown lines can give your face an angry look
You might find your skin type changing, from oily to dry, or vice versa
Pigmentation changes may show on your skin

From age 45 onwards
Volume loss causes sunken cheeks, tear troughs and thinner lips
In menopause, oestrogen levels decrease, causing collagen to deplete
The skin can become dry and dehydrated
Pigmentation on the skin will become more visible
Loss of fat can make the face begin to drop and sag
The jaw area loses definition

Dermal Fillers, Botox and Profhilo are effective, fast treatments which will refresh and rejuvenate the skin and enhance the face and the facial shape.

We put our skin through a lot over the years, but there are many ways to get our skin looking its best again with a choice of cosmetic skin treatments. We have lots of concerns about our skin's condition, and stress, worry, sun damage and even genetics, all play their part in how we'll look as we grow older.

Whether your facial problem is sun damage, loss of elasticity, sagging, thread veins, dehydration, acne scars or just general ageing, there is a solution waiting for you.

We all know that as we start ageing things can start to go steadily downhill, and this means that our skin will eventually start to show its age with fine lines and wrinkles beginning to appear.

Luckily, these days we can actually do a lot to repair the outer damage and get  back a healthy looking complexion.

  • Radio frequency skin tightening
Skin resurfacing treatments work by removing the damaged outer layers, and revealing healthier, smoother skin in its place. Profhilo involves injections of hyaluronic acid to improve skin quality and elasticity. Lots of the treatments can easily be used on the hands and body, as well as on the face, and these non-surgical treatments usually involve little, or no downtime after the treatment.

Refresh Your Skin With Treatments at Selston Cosmetic Clinic - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

We can't stop our face from getting older, but it's hard when you can see the noticeable signs of ageing such as fine wrinkles around the eyes or lips, or maybe pigmentation spots when we look at ourselves in the mirror. Sometimes though, there are ordinary things apart from ageing, which over time can take a toll on the skin and add years to our face. 

Acne marks and scarring ruin the texture of the skin and leave it looking uneven, so try hard not to pick at your spots. Given the amount of germs and bacteria that's hidden on the hands and under your nails, it's just not sanitary to touch and pick at your spots, it can cause breakouts and make existing spots even worse. Picking at your spots, ingrown hairs, blackheads or anything else on your face can have permanent effects and even leave scars.


Cleanse - Gently wash your face morning and night, avoiding cleansers with a high alcohol content and drying agents.
Exfoliate -  The complexion becomes dull and uneven as dead cells accumulate, so make sure you exfoliate your skin weekly. Using a gentle facial scrub which will help to keep the skin smooth, healthy and fresh.
Moisturise -  Apply moisturiser over your face twice a day, not forgetting to treat the neck and the back of your hands. Dry skin loses its elasticity and this is when wrinkles begin to form.

Exposure to the sun is the number one reason for skin ageing, so always wear sun screen. Over time too much excess sun damages the skin, causing wrinkles, loss of elasticity, visible blood vessels, hyper-pigmentation and even skin cancer. Even if you aren't sunbathing you should still protect your skin by wearing sun cream every day.

Not doing so can result in:
  • Losing elasticity in the skin
  • Translucent, thinner looking skin
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Dry, rough skin
  • Liver spots on the face, back of hands, arms and body
  • Broken veins and capillaries
  • Skin cancer

It's said that a third of women go to bed, at least twice a week, without removing their make-up. Stale make-up can clog up the pores making them look larger, resulting in a decline in the collagen and making the skin less supple. Leaving make-up on through the night can result in an overgrowth of bacteria on your face, it can cause acne and give the skin a dull, unhealthy look.

At Selston Cosmetic Clinic we can soften the effects ageing with non-surgical cosmetic procedures. There are many cosmetic procedures for the face, such as botox, to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, lip augmentation and fillers to plump up your lips, laser treatment to remove blemishes, moles and thread veins and chemical peels and microdermabrasion to smooth the surface of your skin.

Lose Double Chin & Define Your Jaw Line with Vaser Lipo - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield


If you have a double chin it doesn't always mean you're are overweight, it can also mean that the muscles in the chin and neck aren't as developed as they could be. When we get older, our skin loses its elasticity and starts to sag, making it possible for a double chin to develop. Sometimes we don't realise that our jaw line is slowly merging with the chin until someone shows us photos taken in profile, giving us the proof we really didn't want to see.

Loose skin on the jaw line and neck, can result in a double chin or the dreaded jowls. This can cause embarrassment and loss of confidence and might be a sign that you should alter your diet. It is possible to reduce and even get rid of fat in the chin area with a healthy, low-fat, nutritious diet and regular exercise, but if this doesn't work, cosmetic treatment using vaser lipo could be the answer. 


There are people who are genetically predisposed to having a double chin. Our genetics influence the muscle and bone structure and where the fat is deposited on the face. Some get water retention under the chin, and others naturally store excess fat in the chin area. Excess body fat is also a cause of double chins as the body stores fat in different places. It's almost impossible to lose fat from just one place, so if you need to lose fat from your chin, you must lose fat from all over the body. Our age can also determine whether we do or don't develop a double chin, because the older we get, the more our skin thins and becomes less elastic, and this causes muscles to lose their tone, which creates the sagging droopy look.  


If diet and exercise just won't get rid of it, then vaser lipo is an ideal way to get rid of fat from under the chin. It's a straightforward procedure that gives fabulous results. After a local anaesthetic numbs the area, the vaser melts and liquefies the fat cells, which then get suctioned out through thin probes. Vaser lipo is not a method to lose weight or an alternative to diet and exercise but a form of body contouring, which sculpts the body to get the desired look.

Just because you have a double chin doesn't necessarily mean you're old and it doesn't have to mean that you're overweight. But, whatever the cause is, while it's there, it can totally take away the beauty of a face.

Are You Ready For Vaser Treatment? - Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield & Chesterfield

We all have body issues and at one time or another we'll all feel insecure about the way our body looks. All around us, there are images of men and women who seemingly have no body imperfections, and although we know that these images get enhanced and airbrushed, it doesn't stop us feeling dissatisfied with our own imperfect body.

Sometimes, we wish our body was more streamlined, a bit sleeker and toned, and one way to do this, is with vaser lipo. Vaser treatment is a great way to slim and contour your body exactly the way you want and it's a gentler, more precise method than traditional liposuction, making it an ideal way to achieve your desired shape, but are you a good candidate for this procedure?


Candidates for vaser lipo treatment must consider:

Having relatively good health before your vaser lipo is important, and also that you don't have any illnesses or medical conditions that might stop you from healing properly after the treatment. However, if you do suffer from a particular health condition, your doctor will talk to you about your suitability for vaser lipo.

If you're within 30% of your goal weight, then vaser lipo is an ideal treatment for you. More than 30% then you should probably consider a different weight loss method, as vaser lipo isn't a weight reduction procedure, it's a body contouring procedure.

Having firm skin with good elasticity will help you to achieve the look you want, once your procedure is over. Usually, visible skin retraction takes between 2-4 weeks and gets even better over the 4-6 months following the procedure.

To achieve the best results, many experienced vaser doctors recommend that you start to tone your muscles before you have a procedure, as it helps if you already have good muscle tone before your vaser treatment.

Vaser is a minimally invasive treatment and is a great way to target problem areas and sculpt the body. When faddy diets and hours exercising at the gym just won't get rid of that stubborn tummy, or give you a sleek silhouette, then it might be time to consider vaser lipo.

People choosing vaser lipo treatments should have a realistic idea of what results they want to get. At a consultation the vaser doctor will look at your fat distribution, skin, muscle tone and overall body shape, and will talk you through the procedure. The doctor 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 good candidate for vaser lipo treatment.
