Notoriously tricky to treat (but not impossible), pigmentation is much easier to manage when you know what you’re up against. Most of us notice dark marks, patches, and uneven skin tone that mess with our desire to have a smooth, even complexion, and we don’t understand the causes of these marks or how to treat them.

Men’s skincare isn’t a trend. It’s here to stay. And, as trends go… we’re here for it! Having grown in popularity over recent years, men’s skincare is having a well-deserved moment as more and more men – young and older – step up their self-care and face the fact that there’s a difference between “distinguished” and “damaged”.

Skin texture issues include lines, wrinkles, roughness from sun damage, acne, enlarged pores, and scarring, which all affect the evenness of your complexion. Addressing these problems doesn’t necessarily mean treating your entire face. Skin Renewal Fractional Fusion technology can target specific problem areas, stimulating collagen production while avoiding the surrounding skin. This precise approach offers a smart solution for improving skin texture.

It is key to understand the differences in ‘skin tech’ devices and why they are effective. They are essential in all skin journeys as we strive to reduce the signs of ageing and tackle skin conditions such as Rosacea. Dr Maureen Allem has done extensive research and is excited to share it so that you can learn more about the innovative technology that is used in Endymed Intensif and the difference between this device and Morpheus 8.

Laser treatments help you save face in many ways; from targeted therapy to that all-important collagen boost, you won’t regret booking your skin in for this highly beneficial form of skin rejuvenation. Essentially, laser is an intense beam of light energy able to really focus on the exact area that needs treatment.

When preparing for a rejuvenating skin treatment, consider revising your skincare products. The items you currently use might be less effective during and after the treatment. Selecting the right topicals can maximise your results, helping your skin benefit even more from the treatment.

As the weather transitions from warm summer days to the crisp coolness of autumn, your skincare routine needs a similar shift. Combining chillier temperatures and reduced humidity can lead to dry, irritated skin. To maintain a radiant complexion, it's crucial to focus on hydration and adapt your skincare products to the changing season. 

We’re all in the habit of thinking the grass is greener on the “other side” especially if that other side also comes with a slick international reputation. Big brand names, the lure of glamorous cities and of course, things we can’t get our hands on at home. Or can we?

At Skin Renewal, our natural rejuvenation best is always the perfect 12 and here are the reasons, all twelve of them, as to why it’s an honour for your skin, body and well-being to journey with us.

The world of tech is amazing, dynamic and full of innovation but, confusing at the best of times. The founders of Skin Renewal procure the latest in global skin technology to bring you tech that is best suited to our climate, our concerns and the results we strive for.

Whether your skin type is dry and sensitive or on the oilier side, whether you struggle with pigmentation or are running the rosacea gauntlet, knowledge is power. 

Let’s speak woman to woman. No sugar-coating it. From the age of 35, our anti-aging hormones start to decline, which means that the topic of perimenopause and menopause is no longer reserved for your mother, aunt, or grandmother’s get-togethers; it’s likely to crop up at one of yours… soon.

IMCAS 2024 revealed the hottest trend: Natural Rejuvenation, and guess who’s leading the charge?

Celebrities are ditching the extreme makeovers for subtler, more authentic beauty enhancements. It’s all about maintaining that youthful charm without looking like you’ve had “work” done, and the secret lies in non-invasive treatments.

So how do we slow down the clock and keep that sharp jawline?

And, of course, our very own Dr Maureen was there.

The essence of maintaining youthful skin throughout life, particularly in your 40s, hinges on the diligent application of sunscreen starting in your 20s. Daily sunscreen use, irrespective of the weather or occasion, is highlighted as the cornerstone of effective skincare, ensuring long-term skin health and vitality.
