Harpenden Skin Clinic in Hertfordshire offers a type of non-surgical facelift known as a ClearLift laser facelift.
This type of treatment is also called a ‘lunchtime facelift’ due to the remarkable speed with which it can achieve effective results. Lines, sagging, age spots and other signs of aging can all be diminished in just a 30-45 minute procedure.
A further advantage of the ClearLift laser facelift is that it is completely non-invasive and can be performed with minimal risk. The results are profound and create a naturally youthful appearance without the need to undergo cosmetic surgery and its consequent recovery.
We offer a variety of other non-surgical facelift options at Harpenden, including dermal fillers, anti-wrinkle injections, Botox, skin peels and Profhilo, which can be used collectively to get the results you desire.
Everybody has their own reason for considering a facelift, whether it be to improve confidence in their appearance or regain what age has taken away. Every reason is perfectly valid.

Non-surgical facelifts are becoming increasingly popular due to the profound results they can achieve in a fraction of the cost, discomfort and recovery demanded by a surgical procedure.
Many non-surgical facelift treatments are designed to utilize the healing processes of the body as a natural method of rejuvenating the skin.
Results include:
A ClearLift laser facelift uses Pixel Q-Switch lasers to penetrate deep into the dermal layers for the most effective results. The treatment is perfect for use anywhere on the face, including around the eyes, neck and mouth.
The lasers are entirely safe, utilising light energy to heat the skin, breaking apart pigmentation and stimulating collagen regeneration.
This balances skin tone and reduces the appearance of lines, wrinkles and age spots.
The outer layer of the skin is not affected at all, and the healing process promoted in the deeper layers is part of the rejuvenating process. The process is reported as painless.
Other types of non-surgical facelift employ different methods of invigorating the skin:
Dermal fillers – Injections of hyaluronic acid-based gel stimulate the body’s natural responses, improving skin elasticity, erasing blemishes and increasing definition and volume.
Botox/Anti wrinkle injections – Injections of the miracle neurotoxin botulinum reduce lines and wrinkles by suppressing muscle movements in the face.
Skin peels – These use natural acids and enzymes to exfoliate the skin, target acne, pigmentation and blemishes, reduce open pores and generally brighten the complexion.
Profhilo/Skin Boosters – A ‘beneath the skin’ treatment that uses the natural substance hyaluronic acid to stimulate activity of the dermal cells and increase the production of collagen, resulting in firmer, more youthful skin.
Most of the above can be used in combination and in a series of non-invasive procedures on targeted areas of the face. These procedures could take place on the same day or could require separate appointments depending on your individual treatment plan. Many of the treatments also need to be repeated at a later date to maintain results.
It may sound very daunting at this stage, but you will have a chance to talk through everything in detail with one of our qualified beauty technicians. Book a consultation to start the process and get advice on how to achieve the results you desire.
Book onto a consultation. This will give you a chance to speak to one of our aesthetic specialists about any concerns you may have, and what results you are looking for. Everybody is unique and it is important to us that we design the best treatment plan for you.
Book an appointment. When the time is right, you can agree a date with your consultant specialist for the procedure to be performed. The treatment itself will take up around 30-45 minutes of your day, but after that you will be free to leave the clinic and resume your routine.
A mild anaesthetic will be offered to numb any discomfort that might be felt from injections such as dermal fillers, but most of non-surgical facelift procedures are painless and require no downtime.
For a full facelift, it is usual for our clients to need 3-6 separate rounds of treatment, 2 to 4 weeks apart from each other.
We will advise you on the best form of aftercare. Even though the treatments we offer at Harpenden are non-invasive, they still put stress on your body. The whole decision to undergo treatment can be nerve-wracking, so be kind to yourself.
With most non-surgical facelifts, side effects include redness, mild pain and swelling at worst, but these usually subside within 48 hours. We advise that you avoid direct sunlight, make up and strenuous activity for a few days. It is also beneficial to keep up a daily skincare regime.
Results are usually visible immediately and often improve over a series of weeks as the natural rejuvenating processes of the body begin to kick in.
But just remember, if at any stage you need support or advice, we’re only a call away!
