Game Changing Facials of 2023
Skin Experts Guide to 2023 Game Changing Facials
Looking good is important, with the average woman spending £3,059.91 on beauty treatments each year. Many women spend countless hours researching skincare regimes and part with their hard-earned cash on skin creams, serums, and facial treatments. It’s a complex maze to navigate, especially when you consider everyone’s skin is different, so what works for your friend may not work for you.
At SDS Rejuvenate MediSpa, we’ve seen a steep demand for in-clinic facial treatments that support a prescribed at home skincare routine. Our clients are seeing better results in less time by investing in treatments that incorporate advanced skin technology. Best of all, they leave with confidence knowing the skin advice they are receiving is right for them.
Treatment: 4D Laser Facelift
Conditions: Fine lines, wrinkles, uneven tone and texture and loss of volume
What is 4d: Fotona 4D improves upon existing laser resurfacing with a protocol that combines high efficacy with minimal downtime and minimal chance of side effects. With traditional ablative techniques, a reduction of superficial imperfections such as photodamaged skin can be achieved, but with non-ablative methods, a thermal effect produces a wound healing response and the stimulation of collagen remodelling, leading to tissue tightening. Fotona 4D combines non-ablative tissue tightening with a more gentler erbium laser micro peel with minimal downtime. We may advise you to combine Fotona4D with MORPHEUS8 for an even more powerful anti-ageing effect.
Great for: For anyone who is concerned by any areas of skin that are starting to lose elasticity and volume, is suitable for all skin types.
Areas: Intraoral, face and cheeks and neck. Can also treat hands and decolletage.
Pain: 2/5. No topical numbing needed.
What happens: The laser is gently passed over the surface of the skin and, at the same time, gentle cold air is blown onto the surface of the skin to protect the skin surface, so that all one feels is the gentle cool air. When treating the face, the eyes are covered with goggles.
Results: Immediately after treatment, the skin looks slightly flushed and this settles within approximately 5–15 minutes. However, the full benefit occurs after a few weeks as more collagen is stimulated, and skin texture and pore size improve.
Number of treatments: 4-6, four weeks apart. How much: 4 sessions £1750 or 6 sessions £2500.
Treatment: HydraFacial
Conditions: All skin types including dry skin, clogged pores, oily skin.
What: A patented cleanse, extraction and hydration treatment that stimulates collagen and elastin while resurfacing the skin for a clearer, healthier and more vibrant complexion.
Great for: Anytime you need an instantly gratifying glow in 45 minutes.
Areas: Face, neck, décolletage, hands and back.
What happens: Our therapist will glide the unique soft suction headpiece which removes dirt from your pores, deeply cleanses, and infuses your skin with rich antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, peptides and other essential nutrients.

Treatment: Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy)
Conditions: Uneven texture, skin laxity, pores, fine lines, and wrinkles.
What: Also known as collagen-induction therapy, skin needling uses a device with thin, sharp needle tips to create punctures on the skin. This then triggers the body’s natural wound healing response, stimulating new collagen and elastin formation.
Great for: Ideal for enlarged pores, acne scars, pigmentation or skin beginning to show the signs of ageing.
Areas: Face, neck, décolletage.
What happens: Numbing cream is applied to the treatment area and then a device glided over skin to make small pin-point punctures to the outermost layers of your skin.
Pain: 2/5 with numbing cream. A cooling sheet mask is applied post treatment to minimise redness.
Results: Immediately afterwards, some redness which may last for 1-2 days, with full results between three and four weeks to appear, as your skin renews, and collagen production improves.
Number of treatments: courses of 4 or 8, then maintenance. How much: From £150.
Treatment: MORPHEUS8
Conditions: Sagging, ageing skin.
What: Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation procedure that can achieve remarkable results in anti-ageing, lifting, and tightening loose skin. The treatment can be used to transform the face and body areas, promoting a smoother, more contoured, lifted and more youthful appearance.
Great for: Improving unwanted sagging and contouring around jawline area, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.
Areas: Face, Neck, decolletage, eye and lip area.
What happens: Our clinician will glide the device across your treatment area using a hand held applicator to apply the MORPHEUS8 handpiece.
Pain: 4/5
Results: Most clients will see an immediate improvement which continues to tighten and lift over the upcoming 6 months as collagen rebuilds and replenishes.

What happens: The LED device will be positioned over your treatment area, and you can relax in our comfortable bed for 17 minutes.
Pain: 0/5. It’s our most relaxing treatment with many clients finding it like lying on a beach!
Results: Immediately after you will look and feel rejuvenated (it’s the perfect pre-event pick me up).
Number of treatments: Depends on the skin condition being treated. Many clients use in conjunction with other treatments. How much: From £55 (or £35 add on)
Remember, there’s no one size fits all when it comes to determining the best facial for your skin type because we all have different skin types. Just because a hydrating facial worked for your best friend, it doesn’t mean it’s going to work for you!
