Laser Rejuvenation Treatment

Lasers have been in use for the treatment of skin laxity, lines and wrinkles, pigmentation and redness as well as acne and sun damage for over 50 years. The Cutera Excel V+ Laser treatments form part of Thames Skin Clinic’s skin rejuvenation portfolio.

Laser and light devices have the ability to resurface, rejuvenate and treat vascular lesions, veins and pigmentation as well as stimulate collage and remove unwanted hair.

Our laser treatments are only available in regulated medical clinics and deliver the latest generation of laser technology for vascular and pigmentation treatments. The Excel V+  laser is powerful, precise and delvers high performance results safely and effectively with the minimum treatment sessions.

How do you decide which skin tightening or laser treatment is most suitable?

We are all individual and as a result our bodies change in different ways. Your needs will be different to others although a very similar process is occurring inside. Our expertise lies in defining best treatment options to make the most positive change. Always working ethically to give the best treatment result with the minimum amount of product, treatment or procedure.

Thames Skin Clinic is very happy to see you for an initial skin consultation where your concerns can be assessed as well as your suitability for individual skin treatments. Thames Skin Clinic uses the safest and most up to date laser technology to treat patients.

Further information

For the best combination for Skin Tightening treatments please contact the clinic to book an assessment appointment with Dr Hemming or a member of her team. There is a charge for this appointment to allow enough time to make the correct assessment and plan for your treatment.

Laser Excel V+ treatment can be used many areas:

We also offer Laser Excel HR for hair removal.

All treatments start with a consultation when our practitioner will examine your skin and explain the reasons behind using the specific hand piece. The choice of hand piece depends on the concern (pigmentation, vascular lesion, skin rejuvenation), the size of the target area and the depth the treatment needs to be delivered.

Lasers use the technology of light absorption by different elements in the skin to target the areas of concern and trigger rejuvenation.

Is this treatment suitable for me?

Laser rejuvenation treatment is not suitable for all skin types. Depending on your skin type and concern we will recommend the right treatment for you. There are some medical conditions and medication that can affect treatment. Please discuss this treatment with us if you are pregnant or breast feeding.

How safe is treatment?

Laser rejuvenation treatment is extremely safe. Our doctors and therapists are highly trained in the use of Lasers and can be consulted to discuss treatment options.

Will I feel any pain or discomfort during my treatment?

We offer several types of laser treatment. Each can feel different but you do not need local anaesthetic for this treatment. Laser combines the use of different wavelengths treat skin redness, vascular lesions, pigmentation and other conditions in the skin.

Are there any side effects to treatment or risks associated?

Treatment is safe and effective way to treat pigmentation and vascular skin conditions. Your skin will be a little red and some can have some skin irritation following treatment. It is essential to follow our aftercare advice following your laser treatment.

How much downtime is usually needed and what should I expect?

Following laser treatment your skin will be a little red. There is often no down time. However we will be able to discuss this depending on your skin treatment.

Procedure

First your medical history will be taken followed by an examination of your skin concerns. Your doctor or therapist can discuss whether Excel V+ Laser treatment is suitable for you and if this will address your expectations from our treatment.

When the treatment procedure has been fully explained you will be required to sign a consent form and a photograph will be taken for your confidential records.

Patch Tests

A patch test is always required at least 24/48 hours prior to treatment, in some cases the patch test will cover the whole treatment area,  ie for a single spot treatment, in this case a patch test is not required.

A patch test helps to monitor settings and response of the lesion and see how the surrounding skin tissue reacts. It is safe practice and enables effective results.

  • Use sun cream / Moisturiser with high SPF (Factor 30 and above for 4 weeks post treatment) High quality SPF can be purchased after treatment. Recommend ZO SPF 30 or BroadSpectrum SPF50
  • If feeling tight and hot post treatment we recommend ZO Skin Health hydrating and calming cream.
  • Moisturise the skin, starting 4 hours post treatment and continuing twice a day for 4 weeks. Hydrating and Calming cream is excellent for this.

  • Avoid direct sunlight on the area for 7-14 days post treatment.
  • Avoid steam rooms, saunas, swimming and hot showers for 24-48hrs post treatment.

Laser treatments vary by the area of treatment and type of treatment to give you the best results. We often get asked about the cost of treatment. At Thames Skin Clinic we pride ourselves on results rather than focus on the price of a treatment, it is more important that we get the correct quality of product rather than offer cut price treatments, products and services (especially when it comes to medical treatments). You will never see Thames Skin Clinic advertising services on social coupon sites such as Groupon as we believe they have a negative impact on our customer safety, results and satisfaction. We also wish to abide by the advertising regulator and work in a safe ethical manor.

Our prices reflect the skill, training and premier product choices we have made as well as the true reflection of the beautiful bespoke clinic surroundings.

The results just keep getting better.

I’ve been visiting Doctor Anna for over a year to revitalise my skin with topical treatments. As I grew to trust her professionally, I decided to take that bold journey to address my dark circles which have gotten worse with age. I was incredibly nervous and a bit scared that I would look unnatural or vastly different after treatment. From the first day of treatment, I was excited and pleased with the results. It’s been two weeks now, and the results just keep getting better. I feel beautiful. The cherry on the cake is my loved ones and close friends haven’t noticed a thing!

Amazing place, lovely staff

I was a bit apprehensive as I had never had a facial before but when I arrived and met Lizzie she put me as ease immediately and the treatment out of this world. Amazing place with lovely staff and a wonderful experience.

I really trust Dr Anna Hemming

I have been coming to Dr Anna Hemming for wrinkle treatment for the past 4 years. I’m always happy with the fresher natural look she gives me. Friends have been surprised when I tell them I haven’t been on holiday and that my rested look is actually wrinkle treatment. I really trust Dr Hemming to do the best for me and feel safe in her experienced medically qualified hands. So, now she has opened a fabulous new clinic I’m venturing to other treatments. I’ve just had 3 LED sessions with aesthetic practitioner Lizzi (who is very knowledgeable and super friendly) and these have really plumped up my skin . I’ve booked a Hydrafacial for next week. The clinic is a uncluttered minimalist space with the latest skincare equipment. It feels hygienic yet relaxing. It’s a pleasure to visit. Thank you.

I absolutely love the results of the filler on my face and lips

Hi everyone, could you please let Dr Hemming know that I absolutely love the result of the fillers on my face and lips. I wanted a natural look and discussed this with her, and I have to say I was a little anxious about putting filler in my lips but I love them. I have the natural look I discussed with Dr Hemming and the one I was hoping for, it has given me a real confidence boost. Stay safe love Marian x

I can highly recommend Dr Anna Hemming

I started to develop skin issues around my eyelid area. Having been to see two other dermatologists who were unable to assist due to the delicate and sensitive area around the eyes, it was a welcome relief for Dr Anna Hemming to be recommended to me. She immediately put me at ease, talked me through the available treatments, provided me with a quote and arranged to see me again to carry out the procedure. Within 2 weeks of the initial consultation my treatment was completed. It has made such a difference to my face already. I feel more confident and am so relieved to have found a consultant who not only listened but carried out a procedure that I was told was not possible. I can highly recommend Dr Anna Hemming and have already to my friends. I have no doubt I will use her again for any other derma-logical procedures.

Excellent. Very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. I felt very relaxed and well looked after. Never rushed. All options were explained and I was shown new ideas that I had not heard of before from other practitioners. Highly recommended. I feel lucky to have found Anna.

Clearer skin at last!

Dr. Hemming is the best when it comes to skin health and rejuvenation. I’ve been loving the OZ skin health range and it’s really improved my skin. (Clearer skin, tighter all over and reduced pore size). I’ve been spot prone all my life and was so fed up with nothing ever working. Finally I have a plan that is clinically proven and safe for my long term skin health. Thank you Dr. Hemming!

Professional

Dr Anna Hemming is extremely professional and knowledgeable in all kinds of treatments and skin care where her expertise is second to none. I have known Dr Hemming for many years and she successfully treated my children’s acne and now she is successfully treating my middle age complaints. She is an inspiration and always full of enthusiasm for the help she can give her patients.

I look younger!

I received Fractora treatment now 3 weeks ago from Dr Hemming. There has been a slow healing and gradually I see myself less tired looking and my lines have noticeably reduced . The beginnings of a jowel I had along my jawline has disappeared which is exactly the part of my face that bothered me most. It seems as if I’ve had a face lift! My skin is firmer and the hollows less deep. I dare say I look younger.

Go, you will not be disappointed.

I have recently moved to Barnes and was searching for someone that could deliver wrinkle injections on my skin but I wanted someone reputable, Doctor led, and that didn’t over do my face as I don’t want it to look like I have treatments. I had my appointment with Anna, the lovely lady that owns this clinic and what a brilliant experience it was for me. I knew my end result would be exactly what I was after. I shall be back, for other treatments because I feel I’m in safe hands and you all know what you’re talking about. No I know why Anna has such a great reputation within the industry. She is not only a wealth of knowledge when it comes to skin but I feel at ease and taken care of in her beautifully designed clinic in Twickenham. Go, you will not be disappointed.

Dr Anna and her team are professional

I’ve had the pleasure of going to Dr Anna for a few years now and was delighted when she opened The Thames Skin Clinic as so close to where I live. The space is gorgeous and bright so perfect for any treatments you may require! I’ve been used to, in the past to going into these darkened rooms where they surely can’t treat you properly. Dr Anna and her team are professional and friendly in the right measure and make you feel at ease and confident that you’ll walk out of there looking and feeling a million dollars!! Would def recommend a visit to see for yourself!
