Wrinkles and facial lines result from ageing and your genetic predisposition. In addition, excessive sun exposure, alcohol consumption, emotional and hormonal influences and smiling can also increase the likelihood of wrinkles.
We offer a range of treatments that reduce the appearance of facial lines and wrinkles for both men and women.
Ageing gracefully
As we age, our skin is unable to cope with facial movements as easily as it used to. When we are young we are able to frown and the furrow will disappear but, as we age, the elasticity reduces, thereby leaving you with a more permanent scar or wrinkles.
If you are not happy with this ageing process, a series of small injections of BOTOX® or Azzalure® can help soften away those ageing scars. The process does not need to leave you with a frozen face, when done sympathetically by a qualified clinician. You can lose the lines but still have a natural appearance.
Dr Nilesh Patel and Cassie Bristol are not advocates of using too much and over exaggerating your features but work with you to get a lovely natural result. Rarely do people comment on what you have had done but you are told that you look really well – lovely.
Visibly fast results
Your facial expression will become more relaxed but by no means mask-like, the overall result being very natural. The effect of treatment generally lasts for about 3-4 months. A re-treatment is then required. The initial effects of treatment become visible within 48 – 72 hours. The maximum effect is reached in about 2-3 weeks.
At your initial consultation, prior to your treatment, you will meet with Dr Patel who will answer your questions and assess your suitability to proceed and agree the areas you want treated. He may recommend dermal fillers for deeper lines and wrinkles. You will then be booked in for your treatment at a time convenient to you.
The treatment, administered by our Aesthetic Practitioner and Hygienist Cassie Bristol, is injected directly into the wrinkles which results in temporarily relaxing the facial muscles and preventing the formation of wrinkles, whilst existing lines are softened. Because a very fine needle is used, most patients find that there is only mild and temporary discomfort. The entire procedure usually takes no longer than 15 minutes and during this time Cassie will discuss with you the results that you can expect to see and advise repeat treatments that will be suitable for you.
A natural, younger looking you.
Ageing gracefully is wonderful but not everyone is happy with what they see in the mirror each morning, sometimes just a subtle change can make all the difference.
As we age, our faces can lose some definition, we develop lines where we don’t remember having lines or folds in our skin. Just by a subtle use of product you can have a natural looking younger you.
The benefit of using the Restylane, (Hyaluronic acid) is that it is replacing the product which we naturally lose as we age. Also, as an added benefit it can soften the skin in the area as it acts as an internal moisturiser.

Topical anaesthetic cream is applied prior to the procedure to ensure a comfortable experience. The procedure takes approximately 30 minutes.
You will see immediately visible results with further improvement over the following few weeks.
The day after my Dermapen treatment I was asked if I had a makeover, another friend said if they could look as fresh and line free as me they were going to book. It made me feel great.
