Getting a treatment can be scary. Our job is to make you feel relaxed, safe and happy with the end result This is why we offer a free no obligation consultation for you to decide whether or not you’d like to go ahead with booking a treatment. This is your chance to ask questions, discuss options and either have a treatment, book a treatment or go away and think about it.
Facials
Facial treatments are popular with a diverse range of clients, all wanting to improve the condition of their skin. Lyss Luxe offer two types of facial treatments, both of which may improve the appearance of the skin in a therapeutic manner.
Express facial
An express facial lasts for 30 minutes and covers intense cleansing, exfoliation, a basic facial massage, toning and moisturise. This treatment aims to identify and improve any skin condition and can be combined with other treatments. An express facial is a relaxing treatment that fits in with a busy person’s schedule. You can fit this treatment in a lunch break, or after a gym workout.
Luxury facial
A luxury facial lasts for an hour and includes intense cleansing, steaming, extraction and exfoliation, a face and neck massage, application of a facial mask suited to your skin care needs, toning and moisturising. Again, this treatment aims to identify and improve any skin condition, and can be combined with other treatments to achieve better results (e.g. in-between microdermabrasion sessions or micro needling sessions).
During the consultation, we will determine what products we should use on your skin as there are a number of different skin types. We can also offer you advice as to what to use at home, and give you recommendations.
Dermal fillers
This is a procedure which aims to give your face a more refreshed, younger and revitalised appearance. This treatment is ideal for clients who want a fuller and firmer face. Dermal fillers are designed to enhance and define key features of your face such as the cheeks and nose. Due to the wide range of fillers available, a consultation is essential to discuss what results you would like to achieve and the best way we can do that. The treatment is generally used on lines around the lips and mouth but can also be used on indented pitting scars to fill and smooth them out. You may notice results instantaneously and results may last up to 6 months. Consultations are required to discuss what results you would like to achieve and to note any contraindications
Anti wrinkle treatments
Treatments for wrinkles were released in the 80s for use in cosmetic treatment for frown lines, wrinkles and laugh lines. It does this by blocking the transmission of signals from the nerve to the muscle which reduce the skins ability to contract and therefore reduces wrinkles forming. Effects occur after a couple days and can last up to 6 months. Alyssa can provide consultations for treatments of wrinkles and is fully qualified to administer such treatment. Treatments do not only need to be used in older age, they can be used in the case of younger skin as a preventative measure. A consultation is vital prior to any administration of Anti-wrinkle treatments. The administration process involves the treatment being administered in the area which the client would like to see improvements, and only takes a couple of minutes, some temporary soreness may be felt immediately after treatment but this will subside. All treatments are clinically safe when administered in a safe, clean and appropriate manner, it has been used for several years and therefore risks are extremely minimal. During consultation contraindications and cautions will be discussed and it will be determined whether or not it’s appropriate to have the treatment. Full after-care advice will be given at treatment and consultation.
Lip augmentation
Lip augmentation also known as lip fillers are a popular treatment aimed at people of all age groups who would like fuller looking lips. It is a safe procedure which adds volume using hyaluronic acid gel filler. The filler is added into the lips to create a fuller looking effect. The procedure can be slightly uncomfortable. However, tropical local anaesthetic will be applied to help reduce any pain. You will see results straightaway and they may last around 6-9 months. You may experience swelling and redness straight after the procedure but these are temporary. This treatment will take place after a consultation where you can establish what results you're looking for and for any potential problems to be discussed and noted. Lip augmentation is not suitable for anyone with severe allergies and should not be considered if pregnant or breast feeding. One size does not fit all and lip augmentation procedures should not just be a robot procedure, Alyssa is very aware of this and takes her time to create beautifully shaped lips individualised to your face. Using Restalyne lip filler, Lyss Luxe creates a signature bespoke look ideal for you.
Microneedling (Dermapen)
Microneedling (or the Derma Pen) is one of Alyssa’s favourite treatments. After suffering for years with cystic acne and hormonal spots, scars are to be expected (especially if you pick!). The Derma Pen has been one of the treatments which Alyssa has tried and which is known to combat the appearance of scarring. It is a treatment loved by some celebrities and can be the treatment of choice for anyone (taking into account certain contraindications). Microneedling / the DermaPen involves using a device with tiny needles inside it. This is moved over the skin where it delivers tiny punctures into the skin at a very high speed. These tiny punctures are designed to trigger a wound-healing response. The aim is to trick your skin into repairing and recovering which in turn results in new healthy skin. Treatment usually lasts for an hour, after which you may feel sore, tight and look very red. The tiny punctures can cause bleeding but this normally subsides straight after treatment. You may experience peeling for the next couple of days, and the results of the treatment may begin to show a few weeks following the treatment. The treatment is usually safe for all types of skin. However, it shouldn’t be used over active acne due to infection, and bleeding patients on anticoagulants may be advised against it. Again a consultation will take place to discuss contraindications and any potential issues.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels are liquid treatments designed to remove dead skin cells and stimulate the growth of new skin cells. It's also designed to revitalise the skin and improve its appearance and texture. Chemical peels work to remove layers of damaged skin in order to introduce smoother looking skin. It can be used to help soften the appearance of lines or wrinkles. A gel will be applied to your skin for a few minutes, which may bring on a tingling sensation. Following this, a neutralising solution will be applied and the gel will be removed. Appropriate skin care will be applied including a good SPF for sun protection, and you will be able to leave. The procedure takes anything from 30 minutes to an hour. A course of treatments is recommended for best results and this can be discussed in the consultation.
