**Anti-ageing Transformation**

Skin ageing is a natural process, but daily sun exposure can contribute to premature ageing, slowing down the turnover of skin cells between healthy new cells and old damaged cells.

**Signs of ageing and photo damage are:**

Age spots - Fine lines and wrinkles - Rough skin
Skin laxity (loss of elasticity) - Erythema (redness)
Sallowness (complexion) - Hyperpigmentation (discoloration)

## The Advantages of Our Treatment

Our freckles treatment presents a wide range of advantages that extend beyond mere cosmetic improvement, encompassing both physical and psychological well-being. These advantages contribute significantly to an enhanced quality of life and increased self-confidence for individuals seeking to address these pigmentation irregularities.

With our freckles treatment, you can expect a visibly clearer and more even skin tone. Our experienced doctor can guide you towards the reduction or fading of freckles which results in a smoother complexion, thereby restoring a youthful and radiant appearance. Moreover, this improvement often translates into improved self-esteem and a more positive self-image.

In addition to this, our freckles treatment can mitigate the risk of further pigmentation issues. Addressing the underlying causes of freckles such as sun exposure and genetic treatments like laser therapy, chemical peels and topical creams helps prevent the formation of new freckles or dark spots. This preventative aspect is crucial in maintaining skin health in the long term.

Beyond the physical benefits, freckles treatment can alleviate emotional distress. Individuals who feel self-conscious about their freckles may experience increased anxiety or reduced self-confidence. Successfully addressing freckles can lead to a newfound sense of empowerment and improved mental well-being, allowing you to engage more confidently in social and professional settings.

Often, our freckles treatment encourages better sun protection habits. Patients who have undergone treatments to reduce freckles tend to become more aware of the importance of sunscreen and sun avoidance, which in turn contributes to the prevention of various skin-related issues.

By addressing both the physical and psychological aspects, our freckles treatment offers a comprehensive approach to achieving more balanced and clear skin.

A chemical peel is a minimally invasive procedure that helps improve the appearance of skin. During the procedure, expert masterclass trained, Dr Rippon carefully applies combinations of powerful solutions to the face, décolletage (neck and chest), or hands to remove dead skin cells. The solutions penetrate into the skin, causing dead skin cells to peel off. The new skin is smoother and more refined-looking.

There are many types of chemical peel preparations, and the right preparation for you depends on your skin type and desired results. Light or superficial chemical peels usually consist of alpha and beta hydroxy acids, such as glycol, lactic, or salicylic acid, that are combined to improve the appearance of:

Fine lines and wrinkles

Uneven tone and texture

Mild to moderate photo damage

Acne and acne scarring

Obagi Blue Peel Radiance delivers improvements in the appearance of skin tone and texture with beautiful results after just one application but even more radiant skin after three peels. There are visible improvements in appearance of skin tone and texture and helps to minimise the signs of skin ageing and photo damage.

Medical-grade chemical peels exfoliate the top layer of skin; not only does this reveal the younger, fresher looking layer underneath, but it also stimulates the production of elastin and collagen within the skin to result in a fresher and brighter appearance.

Chemical peels provide long-lasting results all over the treated area, improving the look of discoloration whilst reducing the looks of fine lines, wrinkles and pigmentation. Chemical peels are an ideal choice for anyone wanting to improve the look of their skin, and Rippon Medical Services are able to help patients achieve a number of skin goals. Whether you want to treat a specific skin issue or just want to rejuvenate the look of tired skin to achieve a more youthful appearance, a chemical peel is a safe and effective way to achieve the look you want.

Immediately after treatment there is a noticeable improvement in skin texture.

The peel will improve skin tone and texture helping to minimise skin ageing by targeting fine lines, and photo damage and reducing pores.

Obagi Blue Peel Radiance contain medical-grade strength ingredients and are supported by clinical evidence to prove that they work.

You will see an immediate result of fresher, brighter skin following a peel. For best results we recommend a course of six peels. Results depend on the individual, but can last for up to six months.

During your initial consultation Dr Rippon will assess your skin type, condition and your overall medical history, before discussing your skin goals and recommending a suitable treatment plan. He will advise on the most suitable peel or combination of peels, the number of treatments and time between each treatment, and what follow-up skincare regime will give you the best results.

Dr Rippon may recommend some skincare for you to use, to prepare your skin for the peels to ensure the best results.

When you return for your peel, Dr Rippon will cleanse your skin, prepare it for the chemical peel with a pre-treatment. He will then apply the peel and leave that on the skin for a period of time. A neutralising agent is normally applied at this point to prevent any further exfoliation or reaction to the skin. Dr Rippon will remove all of the peel active ingredients and normally apply a moisturiser and sunblock prior to you leaving. Treatment will last 30-45 minutes.

During the treatment, you may feel a slight heat or tingling sensation, but this is completely normal, and will eventually subside. There is no downtime or recovery period associated with the treatment, so you can return to your normal routine immediately following a chemical peel. Some patients report some minor skin peeling in the two to five days following treatment, after which tangible results can be seen. For the best results, we recommend sessions of three to six treatments carried out every two to four weeks.

Prior to your treatment you will have a consultation to ensure that the Obagi Blue Peel Radiance is appropriate for your needs. At this stage we will discuss the treatment and answer any questions you may have.

- Is it suitable for all skin types including sensitive? Yes
- Will you see the benefits immediately after the treatment? Yes
- Is this treatment suitable to pregnant or breast-feeding mums? No

**Other** **known** **side** **effects** **of** **skin** **peels** **are** **immediate** **stinging** **or** **burning, flushing** **or** **erythema** **that** **may** **last 1-2 hours** **or** **longer, epidermolysis (whitening), peeling** **may** **occur** **and** **a** **marked** **reaction** **can** **last** **up** **to 3 weeks** **with** **erythema** **and** **crusting.**

Your first peel would cost £200.00, this includes a complementary Obagi Medical Hydrate facial moisturiser. Further peels are charged at £150.00 Obagi Medical Hydrate facial moisturiser can be purchased separately for £55.00.

After a treatment with Blue Peel RADIANCE, you will need to care for your skin to maximise and maintain results. The single most important thing to remember after any chemical peel is to wear non-chemical sun protection (SPF 35 or higher) at all times. We recommend Obagi Sun Shield Matte Broad Spectrum SPF 50.
