Whether you want to smooth out lines and wrinkles or improve the tone and texture of your skin there is no need to go under the knife as the new treatments available require no down time.

Here are 8 treatments that are currently available:

Botox and Dermal Fillers

A popular choice – Botox can temporarily erase lines and wrinkles and can also be administered to reshape the face to create a softer, more youthful appearance. It can also give a lifting effect to the brow, or make the face appear more slim-lined. Similar to Botox are Dermal Fillers (Perlane, Restylane) and these are equally as popular to fill out unwanted lines on the face.

Omnilux Revive

Targets ageing, rejuvenates skin and improves the effect of skincare. This treatment involves a spectrally pure, non-laser light source that is directed on to the skin for 20 minutes. Through the use of only the red light part of the natural white light spectrum, the skin is rejuvenated.

Mesolift

A series of injections that aim to firm and tighten facial contours. Injected under the skin are a combination of vitamins, minerals and hyaluronic acid and amino acids. This has a rejuvenating effect and also lifts the skin. A few treatments may be required

Aptos Threads

Placed under the skin to lift facial contours and smooth out wrinkles. The treatment can be used on the face, breasts, buttocks and neck. A local anesthetic is administered and threads are placed between the skin and muscle using a special needle. The threads are then tightened to deliver the desired result.

Restalift

A stabilized haluronic acid that is injected to lift and fill hollow cheeks and sagging jowl areas.

Sculptra Wrinkle Treatment

An injectible form of polylactic acid, which helps stimulate the body's own production of collagen, making skin firmer and younger looking. This treatment can be used on the face and neck, but also effective used on the hands.

Fraxel Laser Treatment

A specifically targeted laser applied to pigmented or damaged skin cells. A topical anesthetic is applied, then a blue tint, this highlights skin contours therefore increasing accuarcy. After treatment expect fewer lines and wrinkles and a reduction in pigmentation.

IPL LaserSmooth Photorejuvenation

This treatment directs Super Intense Pulsed Light on to the skin to reduce pigmentation, broken capillaries, enlarged pores and fine lines. The intense pulsed light is applied in a series of gentle pulses. Heat from the light causes damage to abnormal blood vessels or pigmentation. When the body heals it clears away the blemished skin in the process.
