What are anti-wrinkle injections? Anti-wrinkle treatments consist of a purified protein which is injected into specific muscles of the face that contribute to dynamic wrinkles (lines that occur from repetitive facial movements when the muscle is contracted), and cause the chemical signal from the brain to the muscle to become blocked which allows for a more youthful and refreshed look.

What are dermal fillers? Dermal fillers are a gel-like substance that are injected into soft tissue in various areas of the face which assist in restoring or creating structure, volume, hydration, definition and symmetry, as well as smoothing lines and wrinkles.

As collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid production in the body decrease over time, dermal fillers can be a simple way of providing a refreshed, rejuvenated and more youthful appearance to the face.How long do they last? They can last anywhere from 6 months up until 2 years depending on the type of dermal filler used, as well as differing metabolic and lifestyle factors of each individual.

PDO threads are fine needles that contain threads made of Polydioxanone (PDO) which are inserted into your skin and removed to leave behind the thread in the skin which then stimulates collagen production and growth. They are used to strengthen and tighten the skin, improve skin elasticity and smooth fine lines.

Skin needling is used to stimulate collagen and elastin production by using multiple, fine needles that create small punctures in the skin which can reduce the appearance of scarring, fine lines and wrinkles and allow for a more rejuvenated and refreshed look.

At SKYE Cosmetic Clinic, we use the latest micro-needling dermal pen which has a scar setting to reduce the appearance of deep, atrophic scars such as surgical scars, burn contractures, striae (stretch marks) and post-acne scars.It can also be used to reduce the appearance of pigmentation and sagging/lax skin.

Jessner peels are aimed at targeting acne, congested pores, pigmentation, sun damage and scar tissue to enhance cell renewal and stimulate collagen. By breaking down dead skin cells and reducing inflammation, Jessner peels can leave the skin feeling hydrated and supple and appearing firm and plumped.
