Treatment for Wrinkles Manchester, Lancashire

Anti-Wrinkle is actually the most well-known brand name for a prescriptive medicine (similar to how we “hoover” the house when it’s actually vacuuming!) Anti-Wrinkle and other brands are a natural, purified form of protein that is obtained from bacteria. This method of treatment has been used safely for decades, both in medical and cosmetic medicine. Although it may sound daunting, it’s actually one of the safest products out there for aesthetic treatments.

Dermal fillers are sometimes referred to as soft tissue fillers and are substances designed to be injected beneath the surface of the skin to add volume and fullness. As we age, the natural collagen and elastin in the skin lessens, and the cells lose their ability to naturally produce more of these substances. This can result in severe resting lines and volume loss. There are several different types and consistencies of filler and each one is designed to address a particular concern in the face.

Fine lines and wrinkles are a common result of the ageing process. The skin naturally contains two products: collagen and elastin. These naturally occurring elements work to keep the skin’s structure firm and full, with the ability to stretch and contract. As we get older the collagen and elastin can start to reduce and the body becomes a little less efficient in continuing their production as quickly as before. This results in the structure of the skin losing elasticity and strength, therefore allowing the muscles to leave a visible permanent mark on the skin itself which from temporary, becomes permanent and visible not only on animation, but also at rest.

The type of chemical peel that Mr. Marando uses at Star Clinic is dependent on your individual skin type and problem and can vary in strength to accommodate the depth of skin tissues it needs to reach. These are: Superficial – this peel uses Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA), Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) or Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA)at 10 – 20%. The solution is applied to the face and left on for a few minutes, removing the top layer of the skin (known as the epidermis). The skin may feel tight for a couple of hours afterwards and repeated treatments can ensure long term results. Medium peels – uses Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) at 35%. After a few minutes of the solution being applied to the face, the middle and top layers of skin will be removed. It will take a few hours for any sensitivity to subside and the face may be red for a few days, with several weeks before the skin returns to normal. Treatment may need repeating in 6 – 12 months.

Anti-Aging Injections A number of tiny injections placed into the skin to temporarily relax the muscles, resulting in fresher, more youthful appearance. Lasts approximately 3 months until you will need to top up.

Dermal Fillers The hyaluronic acid gel is injected beneath the skin to increase volume & decrease sagging, giving a lift to areas on the face - Nasolabial fold (nose to mouth lines)

If you have unwanted hair on your body that you would like to be permanently removed, it might be worth considering IPL hair removal. IPL hair removal – known in full as intense pulsed light hair removal – is a hair removal treatment that disrupts the follicle of the hair, preventing it from growing back. Here at Skinique Aesthetics, we aim to provide some of the best IPL hair removal you will find in the Greater Manchester area.
