Beyond how it looks, my skin actually feels more substantial than it did. Less papery around my cheeks and jaw. That is the elastin rebuilding apparently.

Write a ReviewKnowing exactly what the week afterwards involves, id still book it tomorrow. That is the clearest way i can put how pleased i am with where i ended up.
i had started angling away from cameras at family occasions without really noticing i was doing it. That stopped completely and it has made more difference than i expected.
She had it done last year and looked rested rather than obviously worked on. Asked her where and booked the same month. Two friends have since asked me the same thing.
Old scarring across my cheeks has become noticeably shallower alongside the tightening. That was not why i booked but it was a very welcome extra.
Once the swelling settled the change came on so gradually that people just said i looked well. Not one person guessed at a treatment.
Sent home with written guidance and a number to ring if anything worried me. Somebody rang me the next morning to check in which i thought was a nice touch.
At 54 i had real laxity rather than fine lines, and most treatments were never going to touch that. This was the first thing suggested to me that actually matched the problem.
A week of hiding for a result that has lasted years is a trade id make again tomorrow. Everything else id tried needed repeating constantly for far less benefit.
They photographed me properly at the start and at six months. Day to day you adjust and stop noticing, but side by side the difference was genuinely startling.
i went in for the tightening and came out with noticeably better skin quality too. Pores are smaller and the surface is smoother than it has been in years.
Dropped a lot of weight and my face was left slack. This tightened things up in a way that no amount of continued dieting or exercise was ever going to.
Was the only fella in the waiting room but nobody batted an eyelid. She kept the result looking natural rather than smoothing everything out which was my worry.
Timed it so the worst of the swelling fell during a fortnight off. Their advice on scheduling was spot on and nobody at work saw me at my puffiest.
Beautiful Georgian building and a calm, well run clinic inside. Every appointment started on time and nobody ever made me feel like i was being processed.
This is a device where the depth settings and technique clearly matter enormously. She does it constantly and you could tell from how methodical she was.
A fraction of what a surgical lift would have cost me and none of the risk that comes with it. For the amount of laxity i had it was the right call.
Having spent a fortune on things that faded within a year, paying once for something that has held this long makes far more sense financially.
What convinced me was that it builds your own collagen and elastin rather than putting something foreign under the skin. The result moves like my own face because it is.
The softness under my chin has firmed up so my profile looks completely different. Side on photographs used to make me wince and now they do not.
my neck had aged faster than my face and that is notoriously hard to treat. The tightening there has been the most obvious part of the whole result.
The lines from my nose down to my mouth were the thing i disliked most in photographs. They have softened considerably without anything being injected into them.
The heaviness along my jawline that had crept in through my forties has genuinely lifted. My face has a defined edge to it again which no cream was ever going to deliver.
Thought id seen the full result at three months and then it carried on getting better. The collagen response really does keep going the way they described.
Almost nothing for the first month which had me worried id wasted my money. Then around week six it appeared and kept building right through to month five.
Properly puffy for about four days then it dropped away quickly. Looked worse on day two than day one which they had warned me to expect so i did not panic.
They took real time over the local anaesthetic and did not rush that part. Once it took hold i felt pressure and nothing else. Far more comfortable than i had feared.
The appeal was not having to come back every few months. One session, a week of looking rough, and a result that has lasted well over a year now. Worth every bit of the recovery.
She assessed where my laxity actually was rather than where i assumed it was, and adjusted the plan accordingly. That changed the treatment for the better.
Had a few sessions of surface radiofrequency elsewhere with barely any change. This goes far deeper and delivered more in one treatment than that did in six.
She was completely straight with me that id look rough for a week. i appreciated that far more than being told it was a lunchtime job and then getting a shock.
i had two consultations for a lower facelift before finding this. Profound got me most of the way there without a general anaesthetic or a month off work.
The bruising along my jaw took a good ten days to clear. Makeup covered most of it from day six. Plan a quiet fortnight and you will be grand.
