Skincare treatments: skin tightening and skin analysis
Skin is amazing. It’s the largest organ of the human body, accounting for around 16% of your body weight and can be as thick as 4mm on the palms of your hands and the soles of your feet, or as thin as 0.5mm on your eyelids. It provides your body with a tough physical barrier against the sun, infection and other damage, regulates your body temperature, and has pressure and pain sensors. It really does look after you, so isn’t it right that you use skincare treatments to look after it?
What Skincare treatments are there?
Skin analysis
As you age, your skin changes texture, so it’s important to understand what’s happening so you can make an informed decision about what to do about it and what, if any skincare treatments that you could have. At The Skin To Love Clinic, skin analysis is free of charge. Here’s a short film which explains a bit more about it.

Thermage skin tightening
It’s an inevitable part of ageing that our skin becomes less elastic and radiant than it was when we were in our 20s. However, there are plenty of skincare treatments which can help restore the skin without resorting to surgery, and in this video we introduce our non-invasive alternative to a face lift. Thermage CPT (Comfort Pulse Technology) can be used on the body, the face and even on the inner orbit of the eye, to tighten up the skin in order to give it more definition. It’s the only FDA approved device which has been approved for all three areas. It’s effective for any age, although older and looser the skin may need more than one treatment.

I had some laser treatment for my facial pigmentation and I have to say it was amazing! The marks - which were relatively dark - have virtually gone. It was so much better than I thought. Also painless.Jane was very helpful and put me at ease.

Maura kindly stepped out the shop to find me, as it was my first time and Jane had so much knowledge of skin that I felt right at ease with the products she had chosen for me. A week in and my skin feels so much softer. Thank you all, see you soon.xoxo

Natalia is my practitioner and I could not be happier. She explains everything and gives advice which is much appreciated. Also she is kind and very professional. But what I appreciate the most is her gentle and light touch so am never left bruised. I am already booked for my next treatment. I highly recommend Skin to Love Clinic and Natalia.

Jane & Natalia were very informative and friendly. They were quickly able to diagnose my skin condition through facial scanning & recommended a skincare course for me. I was assured they are there to help with any questions along the way & with regular reviews too. My first time at this clinic and from when I walked in through the door I was greeted with a warm welcome by the front desk staff.

I went to the clinic last week. I met Jane who explained the types of treatment to me. It was very clear and I opted for the reduction of fat from the abdomen and love handles.Today i had my first session and it was absolutely fantastic.Initially you can feel like a painful but bearable pinch on the abdomen. After five minutes everything becomes very quiet and you can do another activity like checking your email and maybe chat on the phone with a friend.Jane and Nathalie were great , kind , and very professional .I can t wait to do the second treatment to see the results . I highly recommend this Clinic 100%.Rita

From the consultation to the end of the treatment, Natalia was kind, patient, understanding and extremely professional. She listened to my issues and then recommended the right treatment but put no pressure on me. Infact she encouraged me to have a think and do some research before i committed to anything. On the treatment table she explained everything she was doing and I could tell I was in very good hands. The procedure was uncomfortable and it could have been very easy to start panicking but she put me totally at ease and her confidence and professionalism meant that I had the utmost faith in her and my results were brilliant, far better than I had anticipated. Would throughout recommend her and the practice. 5 stars!

Amazing experience. Jane The dermatologist was knowledgeable but also caring, she gave me tailored advice and an aftercare plan. She made sure I knew what was going to happen and was comfortable throughout the whole procedure. She listened to my concerns and found ways to work with my situation, even gave me some stress ball to help with my nerves :). Looking forward to my next appointment.

Thank you Jane, for the friendly professional way you looked at my skin problem with me, it was certainly a lot more in depth and informative than I was expecting, the before and after photos are testament to that the treatments you gave has almost removed all the scarring that acne left on my face.

I cannot recommend the team the innovation and treatments more highly than at the Skin To Love Clinic. They are at the cutting edge of beauty and have new ways and procedures that make your skin look beautiful. I've spent many years on Harley and Wimpole street and assumed you couldn't get this level of investment and treatments anywhere else but the Skin the Love clinic not only offer every top treatment but the Jane and Sue are so skillful and have a real eye for what will work for you. Their mini thread lift is incredible as is their 'vampire' treatment but skin since I have moved to St Albans has improved dramatically

I have several issues with my skin and have been working with my doctor to deal with them. He referred me to a Dermatologist who advised on the treatment I needed. It took me a while to find the right place with the level of expertise that I needed and The Skin to Love Clinic ticked all of the boxes. My first experience with The Skin to Love Clinic was about 2 years ago. I had a consultation with Jane and immediately knew I was in good hands. I had a series of Fraxel laser which dealt with the issue as well as improved the quality of my skin. I am now dealing with a different issue and without hesitation made an appointment with Jane. What a relief to know that once again, I will be in the best hands and get the most appropriate treatment for my skin, not only dealing with the issue but also improving the health of my skin at the same time.

I visited the Skin to Love Clinic today for my fourth and final treatment of Sunekos today. The results have exceeded my expectations. My skin is plumper and lines are definitely diminished. I look younger, healthier and I’m definitely happier. As always the experience was second to none from the moment you walk through the front door, from the receptionist, to all the clinicians, who make you feel welcome and comfortable with their warmth and friendliness whilst still maintaining their professionalism, instilling the confidence needed when embarking on cosmetic treatments. Thank you to all the team! I can’t recommend this clinic enough! Rita x

I had a consultation today, the clinic is lovely and staff are very welcoming, I’m so happy with the information I was given, I’m quite excited to start using the products recommended for my skin type and see the change that occurs, it was so nice to actually have a in-depth conversation with someone that clearly knows what they are talking about, in the past Iv always made the mistake of trusting a beautician and trying treatments that are not suited to my skin.. yes they are great at some things they do but they are not trained enough to offer the advice and treatment that has been offered to me at the skin to love clinic... it’s also great to see the breakdown of all the skin complaints on the computer as it helps to point out the main issues, i can’t wait to start treatment in the very near future, fingers crossed onwards and upwards... thanks for the help today
