Aging for all of us has many positives and negatives. We all want to live longer, happier, healthier lives and keep our bodies in tip-top condition. Hopefully we all experience lots of joy and laughter over the years, but one of the downsides of that is those dreaded laughter lines, that slowly creep up on us around our eyes, forehead and mouth. If you’re searching for how to reduce wrinkles under your eyes, around your mouth and forehead, without using fillers and injectables, we’ve got some great alternative, non-invasive, anti-aging skin treatments here at The Beauty Spot in Basingstoke that are extremely effective at combating those wrinkles.
Here’s our top 3 treatments to reduce fine lines, wrinkles and give your skin a youthful glow:
1) HIFU – lifts your skin and reduces wrinkles
Our HIFU treatment (high-intensity focused ultrasound) is fantastic for both reducing wrinkles and giving you a ‘facelift’ effect, without having to go under the knife. The results from this treatment are amazing, which is why we’ve put this in our number one spot!
How does HIFU work?
HIFU uses ultrasound energy to target layers of skin just below the surface on specific area of your face. The skin cells in the targeted area heat-up and when they reach a certain temperature this stimulates the cells to produce more collagen – the protein in your skin structure.
This is a safe procedure as the beams are focused on a specific area below your skin’s surface, meaning there’s no damage to your upper skin layers.
HIFU treatment results are extremely effective giving you firmer, tighter skin, ‘lifted’ skin and significantly reducing wrinkles. Some of the other benefits and uses include:
- Scar treatment
- Double chin reduction
- Jawline sculpting
- Eyebrow lift
- Eye bags reduction

2) Radiofrequency Microneedling
Radiofrequency microneedling, also referred to as RF microneedling, is a safe and minimally invasive treatment that also stimulates collagen, resulting in tightened firmer skin and wrinkle reduction. We use a ‘radiofrequency’ microneedling procedure, which is superior to traditional microneedling. Results can usually be seen within 2 – 3 weeks after just one session, although we recommend 2 – 6 treatments, dependent on your skin concerns being treated.
How does RF microneedling work?
Ultra-fine microneedles are used to penetrate your skin at different depths – this triggers a reaction to create new collagen-rich tissue resulting in firmer smoother skin. The ‘radiofrequency’ adds an additional element to this treatment, creating heat in the deeper layers of the skin tissue which in turn causes the collagen structure to constrict and tighten, maximising the collagen induction, strengthening the collagen cells and tightening the skin. Your skins elastin is regenerated which enhances your skin’s elasticity and texuture.
RF Microneedling is also a great treatment for targeting a number of other skin concerns including:
- Crepey neck skin
- Loose and sagging skin
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Pigmentation
- Large pores
- Acne and surgical scars
3) Celluma LED Light Therapy
LED light therapy is an extremely gentle, safe and painless treatment which can be used to target a number of skin concerns, helping to reduce fine lines and wrinkle on the forehead round the mouth and other areas.
Celluma LED light therapy uses science backed technology which not only has anti-aging benefits for your skin, but also has other health benefits.
How does LED light therapy work?
LED light therapy provides an energy boost to compromised skin cells to enhance their performance, resulting in an increase in collagen and elastin production and circulation. It is a great way to improve skin texture and tone, helping to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, giving your skin a smooth healthy glow.
Celluma LED light therapy treats your entire face and has the additional benefit of addressing a number of other concerns such as:
- Open and enlarged pores
- Oily combination skin
- Eczema psoriasis dermatitis
- Scars/ wounds/ burns
- Photo-aged and environmental damage
- Dry dehydrated skin
- Loss of radiance
- Loss of skin density
We love this treatment as it is so gentle and relaxing and treats so many concerns all at once. We usually recommend 2 – 3 treatments per week for 4 – 12 weeks, dependent on your skin concerns.
