Clinical Rejuvenation & Restoration Facial

Skin ageing is a natural process caused by intrinsic (chronological) and extrinsic (environmental) ageing. These factors contribute to the visible signs of skin ageing, such as a loss of skin firmness and laxity, fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage and hyperpigmentation, irregular skin tone and texture, large pores, dry skin and a loss of facial volume.

Intrinsic ageing is determined by internal factors and is programmed by our genes. At Kate Kerr London, our aim is to support this natural process by building up your skin’s health and strength. Extrinsic ageing, also known as photo-ageing, is caused by external factors such as sunlight, pollution, nutritional intake, smoking, stress and lack of sleep. That’s why our lifestyle choices have an important role to play too.

The natural ageing process causes the surface layers of the skin, known as the epidermis, to thin and the number of melanocytes – the pigment producing cells – to decrease. In sun-exposed areas, the remaining melanocytes increase in size. This leads to the skin appearing thinner and paler, with large, pigmented areas known as age spots, lentigos or liver spots. The production of oil slows down causing dryness and the blood vessels become more fragile, increasing the incidence of broken capillaries and redness.

You might notice a loss of fat under the skin in areas such as the cheeks, temples, chin, nose and eyes. Collagen and elastin are the fibres that give our skin its structure and the breakdown of these is what leads to fine lines, wrinkles and a loss of elasticity.

With the correct skincare and clinical treatments, we can support your skin through the natural ageing process to ensure that it is healthy and strong, giving you a fresh and glowing complexion.

The Clinical Rejuvenation & Restoration facial begins with a thorough skin consultation and skin analysis. Emphasis is placed on a treatment and homecare programme, as well as dietary recommendations to help you reach your goals and support your skin through the natural ageing process. Your treatment is specifically designed for your own individual symptoms and concerns.

Taking your concerns into consideration, a precise collection of the latest advanced machines, skin peels, specialist massage techniques, extraction and cosmeceutical products will be combined to deliver dramatic results. Using the Derma FNS microneedling device, this one-of-a-kind, painless treatment creates thousands of tiny micro-channels in the skin to aid the deeper penetration of active ingredients. This causes a cascade of the wound healing response, which leads to the stimulation of collagen growth and therefore a reduction in lines and wrinkles, scarring and an improvement in skin texture.

The Clinical Rejuvenation & Restoration facial is individual to you and may differ with each subsequent appointment depending on your concerns and your skin’s health.

Long term results and skin maintenance are achieved by continued regular advanced clinical treatments and accompanied by a preventative, corrective and protective homecare regime.

There is no downtime after the Clinical Rejuvenation & Restoration facial. Normal activities can be resumed immediately.
