• Microtoxin Glass Skin Treatment
  Also known as Microtox, Micro-Botox or Mesobotox. Microdroplets of highly diluted botulinum toxin are placed into the skin’s surface layers to improve skin quality rather than alter facial movement, giving the “glass skin” look.
• Sunekos
  An injectable containing 6 amino acids and hyaluronic acid. It stimulates fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin, improving dryness, tone and elasticity, dark circles under the eyes, acne scarring, sun damage and fine lines.
• Age Spot Pigmentation Removal
  Age spots, sun spots and liver spots explained — what causes them, which treatments fade them, and how to stop them coming back. Not the same as freckles.
• Under Eye Wrinkle Treatments
  An honest account of what we have tried around the eyes over the years, what has worked and what has not. The under-eye area is harder to improve than the rest of the face.

• Dr Teri Johnson’s Guide to Anti-Ageing Injections
  Anti-Ageing Injections are Not Just for Wrinkles: Anti-ageing injections are not only used to treat wrinkles. They can address various signs of ageing, including volume loss, sagging skin, and uneven skin texture. Some treatments can also stimulate collagen and elastin, while others can promote cellular regeneration, restoring hydration and skin health on a cellular level. Types of ...
• Injectable Collagen Stimulators
  Using Injectable Collagen Stimulators like Sculptra, Ellansé, and HArmonyCa. Your skin can appear firmer, tighter and hydrated, and they can also add volume for a lifting effect.
• Which Treatment is best for the under eye area Polynucleotides or Tear Trough Fillers?
  Dr Teri Johnson compares the two most asked-about under-eye injectables, polynucleotides and tear trough fillers, with the advantages and drawbacks of each and which concerns each one suits.
• Profhilo Structura 
  Works on the fatty layer beneath the skin rather than in the skin itself, restoring lift and contour where the face has hollowed. Two treatments thirty days apart, with Dr Teri Johnson.
• Injectable Skin Boosters
  Using injectable skin-boosting ingredients such as Profhilo, Polynucleotides like Nucleofill, PRP and Sunekos to stimulate collagen and elastin. Your skin can appear more youthful, hydrated, plump and fresh after a course of treatments.
• Jowl Treatments
  Why the jawline softens with age, and the treatments that can lift and tighten it — CACI, radiofrequency and Ultraformer. Each of them needs a course rather than one session.
• Lip Treatments
  Enhancement, rejuvenation and hydration, carried out by our doctors, who each work differently. Their prices sit on their own pages alongside their training, so you can choose who treats you.
• Melasma
  Melasma is difficult to shift and likely to return. Prescription skincare and cysteamine creams can reduce it; laser and IPL are not used. Sun protection all year round is part of every plan.
• Chronic Red Skin Treatments
  Redness has several different causes — visible vessels, a damaged skin barrier, or inflammation — and which one you have decides the treatment. In-clinic and home care options both covered.
• Treatments For Lip Lines
  View our summary of treatments we use at Cheshire Lasers to help with the fine lines around the mouth, often known as smoker’s lines.
• Gummy Smile Treatment with Botox
  More gum shows than you would like when you smile. Usually the muscles that lift the upper lip are overactive, and relaxing them a little lowers how far the lip rises.
• Under Eye Injectable Treatments
  The injectable treatments used around the eyes — Juvelook, polynucleotides and skin boosters — which work by stimulating collagen to improve skin texture and elasticity rather than by filling.
• Marionette Line Treatments by Dr Kyra Drinnan
  The creases running from the corners of the mouth down towards the chin, which can make the mouth look turned down. Dermal fillers replace the lost support underneath.
• Large Pores
  Why pores enlarge, what makes them more noticeable, and what can be done — the skincare that helps at home, and the treatments that rebuild the collagen supporting the pore.
• Skin Rejuvenation – What Works?
  Brighter, more even skin comes from increasing cell turnover and stimulating collagen. This page sets out the treatments that do that, so you can see which suits you.
• Neck Treatments
  The skin on the neck is thinner than on the face and ages sooner. Injectables, energy devices and topical treatments, often used in combination, for laxity and lines.
• Botox Delays the Brow Ageing Process
  Consultant plastic surgeon Rajiv Grover confirmed that the long-term use of Botulinum Toxin (Botox) delays the ageing process in the upper face. The study came about after Grover carried out several consultations with patients seeking a second facelift (some years after having the first with a different surgeon) and began to notice differences between those who ...
• Hand Rejuvenation
  Hands show age through dryness, poor texture, age spots and visible veins. Peels and microneedling can improve the skin, though sun protection is what keeps the result.
• What Causes Skin Wrinkles?
  The following changes make us prone to skin wrinkles: Excessive facial expressions/smoking create dynamic lines in the stratum corneum and then the dermis Epidermal cell turnover reduces so the very top layer “the stratum corneum” is present for longer subject to the causes of ageing The stratum corneum layer becomes more dehydrated so the lines show more The dermis ...
