Skin boosters are formulated with hyaluronic acid and are injected into the skin to deeply hydrate and stimulate collagen production. This improves firmness, elasticity and reduces fine lines.
Skin boosters do not change the shape or add volume like traditional fillers but they do plump and improve the quality of the skin giving a dewy healthy radiance. Skin boosters usually last approximately 6 months but can last longer depending on factors such as age, metabolism, lifestyle and sun exposure. Improvements gradually develop over a few weeks and are best seen at around week 4. Top up treatments every 6-9 months help stabilise and prolong results
Polynucleotides are regenerative biostimulating injectables derived from highly purified trout or salmon DNA. They increase cell turnover, stimulate the production of collagen, elastin and endogenous hyaluronic acid. This improves fine lines, skin elasticity, firmness and hydration. They can also be used to treat androgenetic (common) baldness, scarring and dark circles under the eyes. Improvements in skin gradually develop over a few weeks with optimal results seen at around 3 months. Maintenance treatments are recommended in 6 to 12 months.
Dermal fillers offered at Aesthetics Loft are hyaluronic acid based. They are designed to restore lost volume, enhance facial contours and smooth lines for a fresher more youthful appearance. More specifically dermal fillers can be used in multiple areas of the face such as for restoring cheek volume and structure, defining the jawline or filling deep lines such as marionette lines, and for lip augmentation. We usually use fillers from the Juvederm or Teosyal range which are both highly reputable brands with a strong well established evidence bases supported by years of clinical trials, dermatological research and real world evidence.
We offer a free consultation for the treatment of lines and wrinkles
Microneedling utilises small needles to create small channels in the skin. This triggers the skins natural healing process and subsequently stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. Microneedling improves the texture and tone of the skin, reduces pore size, and improves the appearance of fine lines. It can also be used to treat acne scarring and stretch marks. The tiny channels created also allow deeper penetration of topical products. Improvements in skin will take around 4-8 weeks. A course of 3-6 treatments 4-6 weeks apart will be recommended depending on the specific concerns and area to be treated.
Fat dissolving injections are a non-surgical treatment used to reduce small, localised pockets of stubborn fat that have not responded to a healthy diet and regular exercise. They are ideal for people who are at or close to their ideal body weight but would like to improve areas such as a double chin, abdomen ("muffin tops"), flanks, upper arms (bingo wings) or other areas of persistent fat.
At Aesthetics Loft, I use Deso Face and Deso Body, which contain deoxycholate. This ingredient works by disrupting the membrane of fat cells, allowing the body to gradually remove them through its natural metabolic processes over the following weeks. The treated fat cells do not regenerate; however, maintaining a stable weight is important, as the remaining fat cells can still enlarge if significant weight is gained.
Fat dissolving injections are not a weight loss treatment and are not intended to treat obesity. Instead, they are designed to refine body contours by targeting small areas of resistant fat in carefully selected patients. Most people require a course of treatments to achieve the best outcome, with the exact number depending on the treatment area and the amount of fat present.
A full consultation will be carried out before treatment to determine whether fat dissolving injections are suitable for you, discuss the expected results, and explain the potential risks, benefits and aftercare.
