We may use the phrase ‘laughter lines’ to address the fine lines and wrinkles that occur in our skin over time, but they can be signs of premature wear and tear. Whilst occurring naturally with age, their appearance is dramatically hastened by poor skincare routines, dehydration, unhealthy lifestyle choices, and the pollution we experience on a daily basis. For some, they’re signs of maturity and don’t cause any concern.
But not everyone is happy to have fine lines and wrinkles.
So that’s where we can help. With over 30 years’ combined experience between our highly professional and qualified staff, Cheek Medispa is a leading name in aesthetics and beauty therapies for male and female clients, ranging from 18-65 years. Based in Kings Langley, and serving Berkhamsted and Watford, we bring dermal fillers, injectables and other Harley Street treatments to Hertfordshire, allowing everyone to benefit from these skin-enhancing products and therapies.
Our range of beauty enrichment procedures also include non-surgical facelifts and fat freezing weight loss treatments.
Designed to smooth and even out ageing or damaged skin, Cheek Medispa offers the following solutions at our Hertfordshire skin clinic:
Dermal Fillers
The dermal fillers used by us are produced using hyaluronic acid. This is a naturally occurring sugary substance in the eyes, skin and connective tissues. It acts as a lubricant for joints and tissues, keeping them moist and healthy. The acid also promotes the adherence of water to the body’s natural collagen so skin will look more hydrated and plumper.
We transform the acid from its liquid state to a gel which is injected directly into various parts of the face, depending on the issue to be addressed. Besides benefitting naturally occurring lines on the face, the injections may help aid certain forms of scarring, facial injuries or tissue damage.
Dermal fillers may be used to treat the following:
*Mental lines appear horizontally just under the bottom lip
**Nasolabial lines are vertical lines reaching from the edge of the nose to the outside of the mouth
***Marionette lines also occur vertically, in this instance from the side of the mouth towards the chin
Prices for Dermal Fillers start at £220
Specifically produced to suit each client’s skin, the dermal fillers available at Cheek Medispa are designed to lift, boost and naturally enhance. Talk to us at our skin clinic about how these fillers can benefit our clients in Berkhamsted.
Injectables
Commonly referred to as Botox, these neurotoxins are harmful if not used correctly. However, when minute doses are injected into specific areas of the body, the substance will block the exchange of signals between nerves and muscles. Once these muscles have relaxed, the fine lines they surround won’t shift as much when the face is naturally moving.
This gives the appearance of smoother skin with dramatically reduced wrinkles and fine lines occurring over time.
Botox, as a cosmetic treatment was discovered quite by accident in the 1970s. Originally formulated to help those who suffered from crossed eyes, it gained approval for smoothing out the frown lines between the eyebrows. From there it developed into the product we know today.
According to Time Magazine, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved this injectable to treat overactive bladders as it freezes the muscle contractions that give sufferers the impression they need to urinate frequently. So it’s considered a therapy just as much as a cosmetic procedure within the medical profession.
Prices for Botox start at £130
We provide a range of injectables specifically designed to suit our Watford clients’ personal choices. Please contact us at our Kings Langley skin clinic on the number below for further information about these popular treatments.
Profhilo®
This rejuvenation treatment is an anti-ageing procedure which boosts hydration with high levels of hyaluronic acid. The process feels like a slight scratch to the skin, which may cause a small level of discomfort. Profhilo® produces results instantaneously and will last clients up to 6 months, depending on skin type and lifestyle.
We recommend this treatment for male and female clients over 30 due to the decrease in elasticity from this age.
Our fully qualified practitioner will inject the Profhilo® into the facial area in 5 key places:
Profhilo® Treatment
1 session | £325
2 sessions | £600
Our specialists at Cheek Medispa recommend 2 sessions of both the treatment and maintenance procedure in order to counteract the ageing process and promote long-lasting results. Treatments should occur 1 month apart, with bi-annual maintenance.
All dermal fillers and facial injectables are applied to our male and female clients by Dr Sue Williams, MBBS (London 1983) DRCOG DCH MRCGP. As a member of the Royal College of General Practitioners, with qualifications in Obstetrics, Gynaecology, Medicine and Surgery, Sue is highly regarded due to her experience and industry knowledge. She has been performing our non-surgical procedures at Cheek Medispa’s skin clinic since 2011.
Our clients from Berkhamsted and Watford will undergo a complete consultation prior to receiving either our dermal fillers or injectables. Our procedures are performed in a safe and relaxed environment with discretion guaranteed.
