The Skin Bothy

Sun protection is important because the sun emits ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can damage your skin even on cloudy days.

Why protect your skin from the sun?

1. Prevents skin cancer

UV radiation can damage the DNA in skin cells. Over time, this damage can accumulate and increase the risk of skin cancers, including Melanoma and other forms of skin cancer.

2. Slows premature ageing

Sun exposure is one of the biggest causes of:

* Fine lines and wrinkles
* Loss of skin elasticity
* Uneven pigmentation and sun spots
* Rough skin texture

This process is often called “photoaging.”

3. Prevents sunburn

Too much UV exposure can cause:

* Redness
* Pain and inflammation
* Blistering in severe cases
* Long-term skin damage

4. Reduces pigmentation problems

UV light can worsen:

* Melasma
* Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (marks left after acne or skin injury)
* Uneven skin tone

5. Protects skin treatments and skincare investments

If you’re using products such as retinoids, acids, vitamin C, or receiving aesthetic treatments, UV exposure can:

* Increase sensitivity
* Cause unwanted pigmentation
* Reduce the benefits of treatment

Do you need sunscreen every day?

For most people, yes. UV rays can pe*****te clouds and glass, and UVA rays (which contribute to ageing) are present year-round.

Practical advice

* Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher daily.
* Reapply every 2 hours when outdoors, and after swimming or sweating.
* Wear protective clothing, sunglasses, and a hat when possible.
* Seek shade during peak UV hours, typically 11 a.m.–3 p.m. in the UK.

POV: your injector and therapist are best friends 🤝

Because great results don’t come from injectables alone — they come from a full approach to skin health.

Dermal fillers, anti-wrinkle treatments, and skin rejuvenation can enhance structure and restore balance, but the real glow-up happens when they’re paired with tailored skin treatments like facials, medical-grade skincare, microneedling, or laser therapy.

Think of it as building a foundation and maintaining the finish — support your results, improve your skin quality, and make everything last longer.

We’re here to help you create a fully personalised treatment plan that combines injectables and skin treatments to achieve natural, balanced, long-term results.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a regenerative treatment created using a small sample of your own blood 🩸✨

After the blood is processed, the platelet-rich plasma — packed with growth factors — is separated and used to help stimulate collagen, support tissue repair and improve overall skin quality.

When combined with RF microneedling, PRP can enhance healing and rejuvenation for smoother texture, improved tone and a healthy glow.

PRP can also be used in targeted treatments for: • Under eyes
• Full face rejuvenation
• Neck & décolletage
• Hands
• Scalp/hair restoration

A natural treatment designed to refresh and regenerate from within 🤍

✨ BODY HIFU NOW AVAILABLE ✨

We’re so excited to introduce Body HIFU to the clinic 🤍

HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a non-surgical body sculpting treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to target deeper layers of the skin, helping to tighten, firm and contour the body by stimulating collagen production.

This treatment is ideal for loose skin, mild stubborn areas and improving overall skin firmness after weight loss, pregnancy or ageing.

Please note — HIFU is a body sculpting and skin tightening treatment, not a weight loss solution.

Areas we can treat include:
✨ Abdomen
✨ Inner thighs
✨ Upper arms
✨ Above knees
✨ Flanks/love handles
✨ Bra bulge & back areas

Results develop gradually over 8–12 weeks as collagen rebuilds, with skin appearing firmer, tighter and more sculpted over time.

No surgery. No downtime. Natural-looking results 🤍
