Get that Christmas glow!

As the weather finally starts to feel more wintery and the festive lights start to twinkle in the streets, we can start to turn our attention to the Christmas period, and all of the celebrations to look forward to. Christmas is a we all want to ‘sparkle’ and whether you’re spending it with friends, family or just that special someone, you may be wondering how you can look your very best, and get the results you’re wishing for. But it won’t be Santa bringing you this gift! From her clinics in South Woodford, Bishops Stortford and Hatfield in Hertfordshire, Dr Anita Dhunna has the knowledge, skill and medical expertise, to get your skin glowing, merry and bright, this Christmas.

Injectable treatments for natural looking beauty

If you are looking for a subtle, or more significant improvement this festive season, non-surgical injectable treatments could be the answer. Wrinkle-smoothing injections (Botox®), dermal fillers and revolutionary skin boosting substances like Profhilo® and Polynucleotides, as well as fat reducing elixirs are the mainstay of Dr Anita Dhunna’s portfolio of effective, clinically-proven anti-ageing treatments.

Anti-wrinkle injections (Botox®)

A quick and simple injectable procedure that can reduce the appearance of expression lines and dynamic wrinkles in a few days, lasting 4 to 6 months. Injections are very superficial and the needles used, extremely fine and therefore it’s rare that you will see any major visible side-effects. However, pin-prick bruises can be experienced for a few days, so allow at least 2 weeks before your Christmas celebrations, to see optimum results without the need to cover any slight bruises with heavy makeup.

Dermal fillers

The most versatile injectable treatment helps to not only physically augment the skin tissues, but helps to improve its overall quality and vitality. Packed with hyaluronic acid, within a gel-like substance, dermal fillers can re-shape facial features, such as the lips, nose, cheeks, chin, temples and jawline. They can also be used to disguise under eye bags and dark circles, smooth static lines and reduce more significant facial folds. Results can be seen immediately, however, it’s vital to time your dermal filler treatments accordingly, as you can experience more significant bruising, swelling and tenderness in the treatment sites with this procedure. We advise to have a dermal filler treatment at least 3 weeks in advance of any special event or holiday, so that any swelling has subsided and potential bruising has cleared, leaving only beautiful results.

Safer results, less bruising and swelling

Dr Anita Dhunna uses only the purest, FDA approved dermal fillers for unsurpassed efficacy and safety. She predominantly chooses the Juvéderm Vycross range of dermal fillers, which include Juvéderm Voluma, Volbella, Volift and Retouch. Each product utilises a proprietary technology to cross-link hyaluronic acid (HA) within a smoother gel, which upon injection is more comfortable with less swelling and bruising than some other products on the market. Juvéderm Vycross also contains 0.3% lidocaine, to make each procedure virtually painless.

Profhilo® and Polynucleotides

These skin boosting remodellers and hydrators heal and replenish the skin from within. Profhilo® contains two types of high-quality hyaluronic acid and in a course of 2 to 3 treatments, can smooth lines, hydrate parched skin and subtly lift the skin tissues, resulting in a more youthful glow. Polynucleotides are DNA fractions which communicate to the skin on a cellular level, in order for healing to occur. Used in medicine to heal and repair joints, polynucleotides are now considered one of the most revolutionary skin replenishing treatments available. A course of 2 to 3 treatments may be required, so you will need to book early, to get a head start for that Christmas glow!

Medical Microneedling with Dermapen

Medical microneedling is a device-led treatment which uses tiny needles to create small injuries to the skin. As the skin responds to these injuries, it produces collagen and elastin, vital substances within a youthful complexion, which deplete as we age. Dermapen is a world-renowned device which offers controlled damage to the skin. A range of conditions can be improved with a course of medical microneedling, from fine lines and wrinkles, skin laxity and dehydration, to acne scars, hyperpigmentation and enlarged pores. Begin your journey now, for an improved skin appearance, just in time for Christmas.

Light Eyes Ultra for that Christmas sparkle!

Do you experience dark circles, under eye bags and lines and wrinkles around your eyes? Unlike traditional blepharoplasty, Light Eyes Ultra offers very little to no cosmetic downtime, and can help to reduce the signs of ageing, so your eyes can be the stars of the show at any Christmas gathering. Light Eyes Ultra is a cosmetic injectable treatment which contains a cocktail of ingredients, including hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, botanicals and vitamin C. This treatment is designed to be more bio-compatible than traditional dermal fillers and has a more fluid consistency. Once injected into the skin around the eyes, it can improve microcirculation and skin elasticity and reduce dark circles and puffiness. A course of multiple sessions may be required for optimum results, however, many patients notice an improvement after just one treatment.

Dissolve the fat with no downtime

If you want to slim down and remove subcutaneous fat, prior to the festivities, without invasive liposuction, fat dissolving injections could be the answer. Fat dissolving removes those stubborn areas of fat that even the most avid gym goer finds tough to shift. Areas such as the love handles, outer thighs, arms, stomach and even under the chin can be treated with fat dissolving injections. Deoxycholic acid is used in this procedure, which dissolves the fat away, leaving the area tighter and firmer. Results can be seen in as little as one session.

If you would like your skin to glow this festive season, make sure you book your no obligation consultation with Dr Anita Dhunna. This initial meeting will help you to decide upon which treatments will suit your individual facial needs, and, upon a medical history check, will ensure that the treatment is safe for you to undergo. Once you and the doctor are happy to proceed with your chosen treatment, you can make your first treatment appointment.

Give yourself the gift of glow this Christmas. After all….you deserve it!
