Ive had 2 courses of skin resurfacing / chemical peels which cost £200 each

Q. Ive had 2 courses of skin resurfacing / chemical peels which cost £200 each, but have not noticed any improvement in my skin. Is there any better treatments for facial lines and somethingthat will firm my skin as well?

A. Thank you for your enquiry. Deeper chemical peels are likely to create more tightening effect, but they do end up more expensive and have  a longer healing period. Laser treatments are also an option, and these days most of the time they involve fractionated delivery, so that the healing is shorter and the risk of side-effects decreases.

I have several deep wrinkles around the side of my mouth treated with laser skin resurfacing

Q. I have several deep wrinkles around the side of my mouth treated with laser skin resurfacing. A friend of mine had the treatment for a similar thing and when I saw her after surgery she looked great. She had the surgery in London but im keen not to travel to far from my family and wondered if you supply the treatment in your Glasgow clinic or know of another surgeon that does this procedure in the Glasgow area?

A. Hi – we do have a laser skin resurfacing service at my clinic. The procedure takes about an hour, sometimes it needs to be repeated, the recovery takes a few weeks and during the first couple of days there’s some pain and swelling associated with the treatment. We have a video of the procedure on http://www.labelleforme.co.uk/laser_skin_Glasgow.html. Our prices are also on line at the website. If you want to see me to discuss your options please call 01415520828 and ask to make an appointment to see Mr Shoaib to discuss your options. Your skin may benefit from something else other than laser, and I can advise you on what represents best value for money for your aims

I don t know if skin resurfacing will help but I have eczema on my face around the cheeks

Q. I don t know if skin resurfacing will help but I have eczema on my face around the cheeks. Is there any treatment like surgery/cosmetic surgery which can help me to get rid of this for life. If there is any sure treatment let me know. Thanks

A. I’m afraid eczema on the face is best treated by a dermatologist rather than a plastic surgeon

What are the approximate prices of the obagi blue peel and is it more effective than laser

Q. What are the approximate prices of the obagi blue peel and is it more effective than laser. Thanks

A. Laser and chemical peels work in different ways, so the results are simply different for different skin types. A peel costs £300 and laser costs from £1000 for skin resurfacing. My prices are on line at http://www.labelleforme.co.uk/cosmetic_surgery_prices.html

Could you please kindly e-mail me an approximate quote on Laser Skin Resurfacing

Q. Could you please kindly e-mail me an approximate quote on Laser Skin Resurfacing.I assume this treatment is for Skin resurfacing for acne scars Thank you very much in advance.I look forward to your reply

A. I’m afraid your email address didn’t come through with the enquiry. However, what I can say is that there are a couple of ways of treating acne scars – one is with Dermaroller at £200 and one is with laser resurfacing at £1000. Dermaroller is done by Fiona, my nurse, and laser treatment is performed by Amanda, my laser specialist. Both are done at my clinic, La Belle Forme, and if you want to have a consultation with me in the first instance to decide which would be best for you then please call 0141-552 0828 and I can see you. I do charge a consultation fee which will be taken at the time of booking.

I am interested in microdermabrasion, skin resurfacing or chemcial peels

Q. I am interested in microdermabrasion, skin resurfacing or chemcial peels. Would welcome a general assessment for non-sugical facial rejuvenation procedures. I am in Glasgow on Thursday and wonder whether you have an appointment available for either earlier

Interested in hearing about skin treatment to improve my deep wrinkles

Q. Dear Sir Interested in hearing about skin treatment to improve my deep wrinkles . Please let me know costs and likely time period before they need doing again. Mainly on my forehead and eyes?

A. Thank you for your inquiry. For the type of problem that  you  are describing, wrinkle relaxing injections, injectable fillers and skin resurfacing  can all represent  valid options. It would be necessary to clarify this points in a consultation in order to give you a clearer picture of the best approach for your specific situation.

Do you do fat transplant to my face?

Q. Can you tell me if you can do fat transplant to my face as i don’t really want any fillers and would prefer something more natural to get rid of my wrinkles. How much does this cost?

A. Fat transfer surgery to the face can be done either in isolation, or enhanced with stem cells, for an increased rejuvenation effect for the skin, as well as improved stability of the volume.For a more extensive facial fat transfer procedure, the costs are close to £3000, as a day-case general anaesthetic.  If stem cells enhanced treatment is contemplated, the treatment costs are closer to £7,000, as the technology is still relatively expensive.You also have the option of combining fat transfer with skin resurfacing along the lines of chemical peeling or laser, to achieve volume restoration and enhancement together with an element of skin tightening.
