Age Spots Treatment

Age spots, sometimes called sun spots or skin legions, are not dangerous but they are unsightly. They can occur due to a variety of reasons such as ageing, sun damage and hormonal changes (such as during pregnancy).

Age Spots Treatments at The Cosmetic Skin Clinic

Interesting fact: Did you know that the reasons of visible skin ageing (whether the face or the body) is caused by sunlight?

Or that UVA rays can pass through glass even in overcast weather? In contrast to UVB you do not get the warning sign of burning with UVA. The most important anti-ageing step you can take is to apply daily, a broad-spectrum sun screen SPF 30-50 in winter and at least 50 in the summer.

Because there are so many different types of pigmentation, there is a wide range of non-surgical and non-invasive treatment options.

We will advise you on a bespoke treatment plan at your initial consultation, after conducting a thorough skin assessment. The best results for your sun spots or age spots can often be achieved using a combination of methods, such as laser skin resurfacing, micro-needling and chemical peels.

*DISCLAIMER Patient experience and results may vary. These are dependent on a number of factors such as lifestyle, age and medical history.

How To Get Rid Of Jowls

Losing definition around our jawlines is a common issue as we age. The supportive compounds that keep our faces looking sculpted, like elastin and collagen, start to diminish and we can lose fat in the cheeks and temples, causing our chin and neck to lose its form. Our skin also tends to become drier and thinner, making it less resilient and more vulnerable to the effects of gravity. Sagging skin can therefore develop around the chin and jawline, creating a jowl-like appearance that ages our overall look. Thankfully, The Cosmetic Skin Clinic has a range of treatment options available that work to specifically target sagging skin on the jowls.

Has ‘Zoom Face’ Become The New ‘Gym Face’?

In the not too distant past, Gym face was a much talked about trend in the cosmetic and beauty industry, but with the latest lockdowns and many of us now in the boardroom on Zoom conference calls or at home catching up with friends and relatives via Zoom and other house party Apps, we are witnessing a brand new dilemma; the ‘Zoom Face’ phenomenon. Many of us have had to spend the last few lockdown months attempting to manoeuvre through a rather surreal experience of looking at one’s own face on daily video calls. This reality of seeing yourself in harsh lighting and from new angles has prompted many of us to notice our facial flaws more closely, from laughter lines or wrinkles to complexion issues. While it’s clear that Zoom itself isn't the cause, the overall experience has put our faces right under harsh spotlights for everyone to see.
