111 Harley - Exclusive Cosmetic Surgery - the Uk's most exclusive cosmetic surgery group

Thermafrax is our latest, non invasive, hybrid skin rejuvenation treatment.

This highly innovative and intensive treatment can be used on all areas of the body. However, it has become particularly popular due to the outstanding results it achieves on sagging and blemished facial tissue.  Thermafrax offers a genuine alternative to face lift surgery by improving the skins lift, tone and definition.

The Thermafrax treatment combines the exceptional effects of radio frequency technology (see Thermage page) and the precise targeting of fractional laser technology (see Fraxel® page). This allows us to focus on problem areas by penetrating deep within the layers of the skin, freeing it of poor quality cells and tightening the skins internal structure. 

The combination of these two concentrated and pioneering procedures creates a 'super-charged' acceleration in fresh, high quality, collagen production leading to healthier, tighter, smoother and more contoured skin. 

Now it is possible to look younger, firmer and naturally refreshed without having to commit to full surgery.

Why choose Thermafrax?

• Thermafrax is a safe non invasive treatment that is a combination of Thermage® Fraxel® treatments which are fully approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, the World’s most demanding medical approval authority
• It can be used all over the body, on all skin types irrespective of age and skin colour.
• It  is ideally suited to facial enhancement and will produce a noticeable yet natural tightening in appearance of loose, lax and sagging skin, which will also appear smoother and brighter
• Thermage® requires no recovery time as the skin is not damaged through the treatment process. Improvement is gradual and continuous over 6 months with no sudden change in appearance.
• Fraxel® recovery time is 3-5 days during which time pinkness, dryness, flaking and mild swelling may occur which can be concealed by makeup. Improvement is rapid and will continue during the period of the treatment programme
• Thermafrax® needs only one treatment of Thermage® and three to five treatments of Fraxel® every 2-4weeks with each treatment session lasting no more than 2 hours.
  

"A great number of women would like to look a little younger and healthier but are not ready for face lift surgery; Thermafrax is a highly effective alternative. It offers a cost effective, safe and non-invasive choice that really works."

- Head of practice Dr Yannis Alexandrides M.D. F.A.C.S.

Unsightly lumpy, bumpy cellulite affects over 90% of women. 

Many women every year spend their money on creams, lotions and potions that promise great results but deliver very few.  Unfortunately, in reality, applying a lotion to the surface of the skin will never achieve the desired outcome of dimple free thighs.  The congested tissue that is causing the dimpled appearance is  far deeper in the tissue than a cream will penetrate.

is an innovative, non invasive, skin tightening process that uses radio frequency technology to stimulate collagen development deep within the layers of the skin.

A full consultation with our highly experienced Specialist Nurse Injector is the first stage in your Sculptra™ journey.  After this the injectable procedure itself is simple, taking approximatley 1 hour, with a minimal recovery time of 1-3 days.

One of the great attractions of Sculptra™ is that the effect is gradual and exceptionally natural looking.  Two or three treatments are usually required, and the benefits can become noticeable after about eight weeks.

 This is a simple, non-surgical treatment that temporarily smooths frown lines, forehead creases, crowsfeet and thick bands in the neck. It is the only treatment of its type approved by the FDA.  This treatment has also been proven to be effective in reducing excessive sweating (hyperhydrosis).

Facial Fillers (also known as Dermal Fillers) are an extremely popular treatment used to smooth away and fill out wrinkles and facial lines.  They can also be used to sculpt and define cheekbones and to subtly enhance the lip contour.  The emphasis is always on creating a natural and refreshed look. 

IPL Rejuvenation was designed to combat the effects of ageing and damaged skin in a soft and gentle way. The redness and flushing of rosacea can be reduced 80 to 90 percent. It can be used to treat the full face, neck, chest and even the hands.

If your skin is suffering from a dry, parched, thirsty appearance then this could be the long cool drink that it needs!

Mesotherapy is a medical technique devised in the 1950s by a Frenchman called Dr Michel Pistor. It was first used to treat such conditions as rheumatism, sports injuries, and for the improvement of blood circulation.

Mesotherapy involves the injection of a specially prepared mixture of vitamins, amino acids, and medications, placed just millimetres under the skin into the problematic area. Just a "drop" of solution is used at each injection site. The idea is that you can get these active substances to the site requiring treatment by directly injecting them there. This is instead of relying on a tablet or intravenous injection where higher concentrations of the drug are required in order to get adequate levels to the site requiring treatment. Mesotherapy is both more precise and requires less solution to be injected.

Unlike common alpha-hydroxy peels or at-home procedures, the Obagi Blue Peel puts control of your treatment in professional hands. Based on your individual needs and skin condition, your skin professional determines the strength of the peel.

The Obagi Skin Care Systems are designed to prevent and improve the most common and visible skin disorders in adult skin. The Obagi Nu-Derm System products were created in 1988 after years of extensive research in how adult skin  functions and how best to maintain it’s optimal health.

Sweating is necessary to control our body temperature during times of exercise and in warm/hot surroundings. Sweating is regulated by the sympathetic nervous system. In up to 1.0% of the population, this system is revved-up and works at a very high level, causing sweating to occur at inappropriate times in specific areas of the body. This condition is known as hyperhidrosis.

Acne scarring, new or old can be upsetting and difficult to come to terms with.  It can change how you see yourself physically and lower your self confidence levels.

Many of our patients describe feeling uneasy in certain lighting and as though they have to avoid being seen without make-up to conceal their acne scarring.  Other patients describe having tried for many years to improve the appearance of the scars without good results and feel they have no confidence in finding an effective treatment.

Scarring of any kind, new or old, can be upsetting and difficult to come to terms with.  It can change how you see yourself physically and lower your body confidence levels. 

For many men and women, unwanted hair can be a nightmare. Until recently the only options for removing unwanted hair were smelly creams, shaving and waxing. This patented technology transcends the older, painful treatments to leave long lasting results with a smooth and silky feel.
