This is why I’m so fond of saying “don’t put anything on your body that you wouldn’t eat if you had to…” and a petrochemical is certainly not something you would eat! The truth...

I look to find at least 4 exciting antioxidants 2/ Skin-repairing ingredients such as a Vitamin A derivative known as a retinoid 3/ Cell-communicating ingredients, such asL-Lactic Acid, L-Retinol AGP, which are also DNA repair ingredients 4/...

GOOD AGEING SKIN

SKIN COP celebrates the concept of ageing gracefully, beautifully and healthily. Treat your skin as a precious organ which reflects your internal health. I AM NOT FOCUSED ON ANTI AGEING. We all age – me included. However, what I don’t want to do is age badly and prematurely. I encourage all my patients to change their mindset and come to terms with a healthy ageing process. Trying to look like a 19 year old when youre 45 looks plastic fantastic and awful. However, using a...

GOOD OIL

Some research just published has found that 21% of women in the UK would consider Plastic Surgery. Some might find that statistic pretty shocking but I’m less surprised.

At the London Wellness Centre and Plastic Surgery Associates we tell patients EVERY DAY that before we can operate they need to start taking more care about...

7 TIPS FOR GREAT SKIN

See my other Top 7 tips by clicking here! We believe that all ‘bad skin’ is as a result of unhealthy and abnormal body processes.

We promote good (healthy) ageing. We are less focused on the notion of ‘anti-ageing’. We fight a battle against premature ageing which is caused by silent...
