Why do we lavish attention, money and anti ageing treatments on our face and forget the rest? Anyone keen to detect the ravages of time need look no further than the hands because they betray a person’s age. Dry crêpey fine lines caused by sun damage and protruding veins are particularly telling. As you age the plumpness in the skin disappears, making hands appear more dehydrated and revealing prominent veins.
Restylane Vital provides deep dermal hydration and moisturises from within to improve skin elasticity and skin smoothness. This keeps our skin looking plump and hydrated and so diminishes the appearance of fine crêpey lines caused by sun damage. Restylane Vital is a smooth, pure crystal clear hyaluronic acid (HA) gel which is injected into the skin to replenish the skin’s own HA which attracts water in the skin and plays an important part in the skin’s hydration.
Reccomendation is an initial course of 2 to 3, approximately 2-3 weeks apart. Because Restylane Vital releases hyaluronic acid gradually over a period of time, the benefits of this treatment generally last for approx 6months, once you have finished a course your hands can easily be maintained by a repeat top up treatment once or twice a year.

Make your Valentines day a very special one and plump up your lips for that very special man in your life. New from the makers of Juvederm, the Juvederm® Ultra Smile is now available at The Cosmetic Skin Clinic.
Your lips are very special, they frame every word you say, as time goes by, lips tend to become thinner, drier and lose volume which gives a loss of definition. Juvederm® Ulta Smile can redefine your cupids bow, treat the vermillion border which improves the definition and outline of your lips, enhance lip volume and can reduce the lines at the corners of your mouth to give you the pout that you have always dreamed of. At The Cosmetic Skin Clinic we can achieve a look which is dramatic yet soft, with a lifting effect that still leaves your lips looking very natural.
