I have just undergone a lip hydration at The Cosmetic Skin Clinic with Restylane Vital Light. It looks incredible, a bit like someone has turned the clock back 20 years and given me my smoother, plumper lips back. This is not a lip enhancement. Your lips will feel like they have been moisturised, which they have from within, but also this treatment restores the natural volume loss we all get with ageing, so your lips just look fuller but not augmented.
Before Restylane Vital After Restylane Vital
Restylane Vital boosts the skin’s hydration system by delivering hyaluronic acid in the skin providing deep dermal hydration to nourish your lips to make your lips look rounder and softer without a hint of a pout. The effects are very subtle and it is the perfect treatment for men and women with a good natural shape to their lips.
The treatment comprises two treatment sessions about 4 weeks apart, top up treatments approximately every 6 – 9 months.

This Summers top tip from The Cosmetic Skin Clinic for your skin, is to apply Vitamin C on your face as part of your every day beauty regime. We would recommend Obagi Vitamin C Serum. Why? Because your skin deserves all the protection you can give it from daily exposure to the sun’s damaging rays and environmental conditions that cause premature ageing. Visible signs of aging, those fine lines and wrinkles, are caused by tiny molecules known as ‘free radicals.’ Free radicals dramatically multiply with exposure to sun, air pollution and other environmental assaults, ravaging skin cells and breaking down collagen that gives skin its youthful resilience.
Superior Results
Obagi® Professional-C Serums use advanced scientific formulas developed and tested by leading Vitamin C experts. Obagi® Professional-C Serums offer maximum daily antioxidant protection and greater penetration than other Vitamin C products. The greater the penetration, the greater the antioxidant benefit to your skin.
Vitamin C neutralizes free radicals to prevent skin cell damage. Professional strength Vitamin C can give your skin the superior protection it needs to:
Professional strength concentrations
Obagi Professional-C Serum uses stabilized L-ascorbic acid – the only form of Vitamin C that can be effectively absorbed by the skin.
20% Highest concentration of L-ascorbic acid
15% All skin types
10% Dry, sensitive or reactive skin

The face is the most dynamic organ of the body, constantly being used to make expressions as well as being exposed to all the environmental elements.
When we analyse our ‘patients faces’ for any particular cosmetic treatment, we access the face as a whole. Facial ageing involves the skin, muscle and soft tissue support of the upper, middle, lower face and neck, so it’s no wonder that we have to address all areas for a gradual, subtle and effective rejuvenation and restore a more youthful appearance. This is easily achieved using a dermal filler such as Juvederm® Voluma, it is safe, comfortable, and long lasting.
‘The Triangle Of Youth’
Volume loss and Muscular Hyperactivity are two major components of the ageing process that together contribute to the formation of wrinkles.
We can sucessfully restore the triangle of youth with Juvederm® Voluma to gently revolumise areas of volume loss, which often include the: hollows of the temple – cheeks and cheekbones – tear troughs – nasolabial folds - corners of the mouth – jaw line – chin.
The results are subtle, immediate, natural, long lasting and can last up to a year.

At ‘The Cosmetic Skin Clinic’ we have seen a huge interest and demand for Dermaroller in the past year and its applications seem limitless! Its a big buzz in facial rejuvenation, (as mentioned in this weeks Grazia magazine).
Janine Scott our Snr Aesthetic Medical Practitioner says it can also be used on various parts of the body to tighten saggy skin and fade stretchmarks so will significantly help to improve ’mummies tummies’ post pregnancy. Tightness can be seen fairly soon after, but best results after 6 weeks. You will see significant results after a course of three.
Other parts of the body where Dermaroller is widely used are: ‘bingo wings’ (under the arms), decolletage (cleavage wrinkles), acne scarring, crepey skin on faces, fine lines and wrinkle reduction to scarring and texture improvements, it is a very simple and effective treatment with little or no down time, the results are even more spectacular used in conjunction with Restylane Vital skin revitalisation.
