Beaworthy Skincare

January-

No January Blues - Step into 2025 feeling positive through enhancing and improving your skin care. Medical Aesthetics is all about looking after your skin whether peels, FLE with cube. or wrinkle or filler treatment.

This month Beaworthy Skin Care is promoting shortwave diathermy. I have been treating patients in Dermatology many years with this equipment but increased it's use 4 years ago.

Short wave diathermy uses high frequency A/C current. The electricity causes the water molecules in the skin around the needle to vibrate, which creates heat and damages the cells it is targeting.

The treatments covered for this procedure are:

-Telangiectasia ( Mini spider veins)

-Milia (milk spot or an oil seed spot) a keratin filled cyst which appear just below the skin. Common in all people of all ages.

-Skin Tags- No longer covered by the NHS to have removed due to the pressures within Dermatology and GP practices.

- Cherry Haemangioma or Campbell de Morgan spots- Red dots which can increase in size and can become raised and rounded in the shape of a dome.

Other treatable conditions using Short Wave Diathermy are:-

spider naevi, solar lentiigines, warts, verruca, seborrhoeic keratosis, sebaceous cysts, moles, xantheomas, molluscum contagiosum, fibrmata, syringoma, poikiloderma.

Beaworthy Skin care still covers all of your skin care needs, remember that

from the age of 25- 30 years we lose 1% of our collagen a year- This accelerates to 30% after the age of 40 years. Signs of wrinkles and fine lines, reduced plumpness and shine to the face and neck as well as decolletage; and our hands age too! External environment as well as genetics play a large part in our aging process.

What can we do to help you?

Collagen Banking - using Lumixa collagen alongside the cube light on a red light encourages banking - great from the age of 25 years- this will help in years to come providing you keep up with your regular skin care. This is a great treatment for ladies up to 45 years after this we would look at treating you with Age Control.

We also have the Age Normaliser which revitalises and energises the skin as well as eases

inflammatory skin conditions such as Rosacea and acne. (The photos that you can see to the side off this are the Lumixa and cube light before and after treatment)

CHEMICAL PEELS-

 Chemical peels are a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that can improve the appearance of your skin by removing the top layers of skin and stimulating new skin growth: 

Chemical peels can treat a variety of skin conditions, including acne, rosacea, sun damage, and precancerous growths.

The treatments can improve the texture and tone of your skin, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, age spots, and uneven skin

By treating your skin with chemical peel; the controlled damage caused by a chemical peel prompts your skin to regenerate, which can result in smoother, more youthful skin.

If you have this as a course of treatments it is a fact that any further treatments such as Lumixa/ plasma pen / wrinkle and filler treatment tend to be more effective for longer.

PLASMA PEN 

This is another treatment and very popular with all genders - It is also licensed for 12 years and upwards for acne as it is an excellent treatment for sensitive skin.

• Treating skin conditions: Cold plasma pens can treat symptoms of acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, atopic dermatitis, and seborrhoea. 
• Reducing inflammation: Cold plasma can reduce inflammation and kill acne bacteria. 
• Improving skin appearance: Cold plasma can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and reduce pigmentation. 
• Stimulating collagen: Cold plasma can stimulate collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. 
• Regenerating skin: Cold plasma can stimulate the division of basal cells, which helps regenerate the epidermis. 
• Lightening brown spots: Cold plasma can lighten brown spots caused by sun damage, hormonal pigmentation, or age. 
• Boosting absorption: Cold plasma can increase epidermal permeability, which can improve the absorption of active ingredients in facials.

WRINKLE TREATMENT

Those of us who prefer the instant outcome we have the wrinkle treatments . 

I am very fond of Bocoture (TM) due to it being a more 'pure' wrinkle treatment than some of the alternatives available by containing less protein; therefore reducing the possibility of a reaction against the treatment. It also takes effect more rapidly giving my patient a faster response. THIS IS A PRESCRIPTION ONLY MEDICINE AND WILL NEED A SKIN CONSULTATION PRIOR TO TREATMENT.

FILLERS

Our Practice uses Teoxane and Belotero, Both extremely good fillers. My patients love Teoxane which provides a natural undetectable result- the filler moves with the facial features hydrating the skin . This is because of the Hyalauronic acid (HA) which has been modified in the filer to be as close to the body's natural HA. HA provides volume and lift and can also stimulate the collagen. Patients comment that friends can see that they look fresher but unsure what they have done! 

Belotero may also be suitable for my other patients - It helps to enhance the skin by smoothing stubborn etched-in lines and wrinkles.
