Skin Tightening in Guernsey & Jersey
There are many different contributing factors that lead to sagging skin, from age and sun damage to fluctuating weight.
Skin tightening treatments need not be synonymous with cosmetic surgery, and at the Aesthetic Skin Clinic we offer a comprehensive range of non-surgical Skin tightening solutions, which can target lax skin, without the need for the scalpel, scars, downtime or anaesthetic.
Thermage
Employing patented radiofrequency technology called ThermaCool, Thermage is a non-invasive treatment that delivers tighter skin and healthier collagen. Its unique machinery gently shrinks the skin back to reduce the appearance of lines and folds, as well as facial and bodily sagging.
INTRAcel
Applying Fractional Radiofrequency Microneedling (FRM), the INTRAcel device penetrates deep into the skin to generate the tightening and production of collagen fibres. The heat energy transmitted by the device in controlled bursts is delivered straight to the dermis, bypassing the surface to avoid damage to the epidermis. INTRAcel is a non-surgical anti-ageing treatment that delivers tighter and younger-looking skin.
Ultracel
Combining the benefits of HIFU and radiofrequency technology, the Aesthetic Skin Clinic employs Ultralift by Ultracel. The gentle but powerful energy created by the Ultralift is proven to not only lift the skin, but also the deeper facial tissue – something that has formerly been accomplished through surgical face-lifting techniques only. Its impact on facial rejuvenation has been revolutionary and it stands as the most effective non-surgical face-lifting method available
SmartXIDE Co2 laser
SmartXIDE Co2 laser resurfacing is an extremely powerful and effective technology used to rejuvenate and improve the skin’s tone and texture, reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles, scar tissue, burns and lax, crepey skin.
The SmartXIDE works by coagulating and removing columns of skin, encouraging new, healthier skin to surface. Within treatment, collagen is also stimulated, leading to tighter and firmer skin for at least 6 months post-treatment.
The Aesthetic Skin Clinic consults patients on their presented concern and discusses the best treatment programme for you. Taking into consideration your current lifestyle, medical history and your particular case, our team of medical professionals will tailor treatment around you and deliver safe and active results.
For some patients however Surgery provides the best results and our exceptional surgery partners can assess and guide you through the most suitable treatments. The Aesthetic Skin Clinic are proud to house one of the most highly-accredited surgeons in the country, Mr Nick Percival, who in collaboration with his team of Cosmetic surgery partners introduced and pioneered many different facelifting techniques in the UK, namely the PSP facelift, and the MACS facelift.
Surgical options
Facelift
Facial sagging and volume loss is one of the major effects of the ageing process. Surgical Face-lifts are a tried and tested method to restore the skin’s elasticity, by surgically repositioning the skin and facial tissue thereby enhancing the overall look of the facial features.
Necklift
There are many different common terms that we use to refer to the signs of ageing in the neck area. It is often a focus for many when pursuing anti-ageing treatments, as the facial tissue, fat and skin starts to migrate south and collects at the neck. Necklift surgery can be combined with liposuction for those who want to target unwanted fat as well as lax skin under the jaw. Our expert surgical team will discuss with patients their desired result and also assess the presented concern to determine suitability for surgery and/or liposuction.
Vaser Liposelection
Vaser is a revolutionary mimimally invasive concept in fat removal, combining traditional liposuction methods with ultrasound technology, to effectively break down localised fatty deposits. In addition to removing unwanted fat, the Vaser tip can be utilised to sculpt the body, creating tone, muscle definition, body contouring and skin tightening
