YOUR SKIN IS THE WINDOW TO YOUR BODY THAT REVEALS THE STORIES OF YOUR LIFE

London Dermatology | 25 February 2025

The window to your body that tells the tales of your life is your skin. From teenage acne to the glowing glow of pregnancy and the sunspots of ageing, the quality of your skin reflects your age and physical condition.

Your skin quality is influenced by numerous things. The skin is impacted by internal elements such as hormones, ageing, genetics, and diseases like diabetes. While there are many external elements that you can control, some of these are beyond your control. Unprotected sun exposure and frequent or hot water washing are examples of external factors. Skin quality can be harmed by a poor diet, stress, sleep deprivation, lack of exercise, dehydration, smoking, and some medications.

Enhancing skin moisture and suppleness is the goal of all our cosmetic skin quality treatments. To use medical terminology, the goal of our skin quality therapies is to encourage neocollagenesis, or the production of new collagen.

From chemical peels and routine lymphatic drainage massage to more intensely stimulating procedures like RF microneedling and HIFU, we offer a variety of treatments that promote the regeneration of collagen and elastin.

Often, we combine treatments using energy based devices together with injectables, such as mesotherapy and skin boosters. Radiesse (calcium hydroxylapatite) and Sculptra ( poly-l-lactic acid) are collagen stimulators which enhance skin elasticity without volumising the face and thereby achieve a non-surgical lifting effect.

Every patient’s case is different and will benefit from a customised set of therapies. During your primary aesthetic consultation at Devonshire Dermatology, a customised treatment plan will be developed.
