How non-surgical treatments work

The Private Healthcare UK guide to non-surgical cosmetic procedures contains a number of articles on explaining procedures available, the science behind them and why they are a successful and desirable alternative to some of the popular cosmetic surgery procedures. The guide has been provided by one of the UK’s leading non-surgical cosmetic clinics, SkinGenesis.  

Skingenesis microabrasion
Rather than cutting, chiselling, stitching, injecting, or implanting, non-surgical treatments achieve results through stimulating processes that occur naturally in your skin and body:  

  • collagen and elastin production to smooth and tone the skin, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles,
  • coagulating blood based blemishes so they naturally disappear during skin renewal
  • stopping and controlling melanin production to tackle pigmentation blemishes
  • massaging and stretching connective tissue to smooth atrophic scars
  • metabolizing deposited fat into the bloodstream for you to burn off through moderate exercise

The advantages of this are:

  • virtually pain free
  • no risks of infection
  • no anaesthetic
  • no recovery time
  • no time off work
  • entirely natural and healthy look
