Four non-surgical alternatives to a facelift

We all wish we could turn back time (physically, at least). But not everyone is ready for or willing to undergo extensive surgery in order to achieve the feat. A recent example is Judy Murray, the mother of UK tennis player Andy Murray, who revealed how she has taken advantage of a non-surgical facelift to… Continue reading Four non-surgical alternatives to a facelift

Are your veins healthy? The Varicose Veins MOT

We’re slaves to getting our cars checked in annual MOTs, but how often do we take the time to check our own health? Probably not often enough. It’s estimated that nearly 3 in 10 of us will suffer from varicose veins at some point in our lives, with even more being plagued by smaller spider… Continue reading Are your veins healthy?

Why do we sweat? And how can you treat excessive sweating?

We explore what causes us to sweat, and how you can treat excessive perspiration.  While the grey clouds and drop in temperature suggest that summer’s left us for the other side of the world, think back a couple of weeks when temperatures hovered in the sweltering thirties (oh, those were the days) and you’ll also… Continue reading Why do we sweat? And how can you treat excessive sweating?

What type of VASER is best for me?

We’ve all got areas of our body we don’t like; Queen-of-the-curves Kim Kardshian admitted she’s not a fan of her thighs, while Katy Perry once confessed that she wished she had a Kate Moss-esque frame (if that’s not a sign we’re too harsh on ourselves, we don’t know what is!). Perhaps this is why so… Continue reading What type of VASER is best for me?

Blepharoplasty: A Simple Procedure that gives Impressive Results…with the right Surgeon, of course!

Of all the signs of ageing, one of the hardest to disguise is drooping, excess skin around the eyes. Short of constantly wearing sunglasses it can’t be hidden, nor can make-up conceal it as easily as other imperfections. What makes the matter worse, however, is how many of us it affects. In 2013 BAAPS reported a 14% increase in the number of people opting for eyelid surgery with 7,808 procedures carried out. Further yet,… Continue reading Blepharoplasty: A Simple Procedure that gives Impressive Results…with the right Surgeon, of course!

A face lift without the surgery?

Photos are a great way to remember happy days, but can be an even better way to lose confidence; sagging skin, wrinkles and generally anything nasty not only shows, but often looks worse. Beauty app developers Modiface think they’ve found the perfect solution for this photographic faux-pas in their new creation Beauty Mirror, which allows… Continue reading A face lift without the surgery?

Women and Adult Acne

Most of us would happily rid of a limb or two to look like her, but apparently even actress and model Molly Sims has issues with her appearance. The former Sports Illustrated cover star has spoken publicly about her struggle with adult acne and made it clear that even the most-recognised supermodels can have the same… Continue reading Women and Adult Acne

Are VASER Lipo and MicroLipo really worth it?

There was a time when the word ‘liposuction’ probably would have conjured up visions of complex surgery and a stay in hospital, but the face of the procedure is changing and, thanks to pioneering surgeons including The Private Clinic’s own, new forms of the treatment have become less invasive and better suited to our modern… Continue reading Are VASER Lipo and MicroLipo really worth it?

The difference between wrinkle injections and fillers

The fountain of youth: a mythical spring with an ability to gift bathers with beauty of the past and the vitality of a younger self. Over the years there have been a fair few quests to find it, one of the earliest being Herodotus way back in 5th century BC. Two thousand years later and… Continue reading The difference between wrinkle injections and fillers
