Happily, 2015 has cemented the move towards subtlety in the cosmetic industry – the DailyMail have reported twice this year on two of my very happy patients who opted for a subtle face lift using the revolutionary Silhouette soft threads treatment which also goes by the name “one Stitch lift”. This procedure responds to people's desire for effective anti-ageing treatments that will put off or prevent the need for cosmetic surgery while combating sagging brow, jowls and neck.
One of my most popular offerings, the procedure itself takes approximately 1 hour to perform and involves pulling a thread under the skin of the jaw line and lower face and mechanically pulling it upwards, lifting the mid and lower face to improved sagging. The thread itself then stimulates collagen production to add to the effect.
Natural looking results last approximately 18 months and there is considerably less downtime than a surgical facelift, it suits busy patients who have on-the-go lifestyles.
The “wind tunnel facelift” look of the 90’s is becoming a distant memory with more and more people seeking natural looking results.

Before & After
As the trend for natural beauty rises and the demand for 'something subtle' becomes more popular than ever, the formerly fashionable 'trout pout' is definitely no longer the look that patients want to achieve. Instead, our clients are seeking out a middle ground, opting for less invasive treatment and - regardless of the procedure - that subtle outcome that enhances one's appearance without changing it completely.
The cosmetic industry as a whole is starting to embrace this wave of natural rejuvenation, which is why procedures such as Silhouette Soft® are in demand. Minimal downtime alongside maximum results mean that this procedure is hot stuff! This definitely true here at Dr Leah's Clinic.
This trend extends to historically popular treatments ant-wrinkle injections, which is still highly effective, but clients now no longer want that expressionless, fake, plastic look. They are following our advice that less is definitely more!
Whatever the season, all of us here at Dr Leah's Clinic are advocates of natural beauty, and so we're obviously thrilled with this new trend - we say long may it continue!
The Dr Leah Clinic is located in Moorgate, not far from Liverpool Street. Click here for more details, or call 020 7877 5999 to speak with a member of our team.
Anti-wrinkle injections is the most popular anti-wrinkle treatment in the world, and quite possibly the most popular cosmetic treatment in general. It is an incredibly effective means of smoothing out wrinkles and achieving a more youthful appearance; with that said, anti-wrinkle injection isn't right for everyone, and in this blog post, we will aim to answer some of the questions that people most commonly ask about this treatment.
Q: What are the side effects of Anti-wrinkle injections?
A: The most common side effect is a mild bruising on the injection site. Patients may also experience some headaches after the treatment, but these tend to subside within 24 hours.
Q: How long does Anti-wrinkle injections last?
A: The procedure itself takes about 30 minutes. The results will last for 3-4 months; after this period has elapsed, patients may come back to the clinic for another anti-wrinkle injection treatment.
Q: How much does Anti-wrinkle injections cost?
A: This depends on the clinic; if you visit the Dr Leah anti-wrinkle injection clinic in London, a 1-area treatment will cost you £199.
Q: How old do you have to be to get Anti-wrinkle injections?
A: This is a controversial issue, and once again, the answer depends on which clinic you visit. The Dr Leah clinic never administers anti-wrinkle injections to teenagers, and we always recommend a consultation session before deciding on a particular treatment. The best time to get a anti-wrinkle injection treatment is when you notice that frown lines and other 'dynamic' lines are becoming permanent, which usually occurs in a person's early 30s.
Q: Are there any alternatives to Anti-wrinkle injections?
A: Yes. You may prefer to use facial fillers to smooth wrinkles and achieve that plumper, more youthful look; alternatively, if you don't like injections, our microdermabrasion treatments offer noticeable rejuvenation without any needles.
