Chemical Peels • Dermaplaning • Microneedling • RF Microneedling • Mesotherapy at The Aesthetics & Beauty Lounge for a Healthier, smoother, glowier skin—tailored to you

 

At The Aesthetics & Beauty Lounge in Driffield, we build personalised skin plans using clinical-grade treatments to improve texture, tone, fine lines, pores, pigmentation and laxity—for the face, neck, décolletage, hands and body. Every plan starts with a skin consultation so we can match the right modality (or combination) to your goals, skin type and downtime preferences.

 

Treatments we offer (how they work & where we treat)

1) Chemical Peels (superficial to medium depth)

How it works: Professional-strength acids (e.g., AHA/BHA/TCA blends) gently dissolve the bonds between dull surface cells to brighten, smooth and even tone. Some formulas also target breakouts or pigmentation.

Areas: face, neck, décolletage, back/shoulders, arms/hands.
 

What to expect: 20–40 mins. Tingling/warmth during application. Depending on depth, you may see light flaking (1–3 days) or visible peel (3–7 days).
Good for: dullness, rough texture, congestion, superficial pigment, fine lines.
Course: 3–6 sessions, 2–4 weeks apart; maintenance monthly/seasonally.
Notes: We’ll advise on pre-peel prep (pause retinoids/acids, sun avoidance) and post-peel care (SPF 50, gentle skincare).

 

2) Dermaplaning

How it works: A sterile, single-use blade is used to exfoliate the stratum corneum and remove vellus “peach fuzz”, revealing instant radiance and allowing skincare/makeup to sit beautifully.
Areas: face (avoiding active breakouts).
 

What to expect: 30–45 mins. Zero downtime; mild pinkness for a few hours. Hair grows back soft—not thicker or darker.
Good for: instant glow, smooth makeup, superficial dryness, mild dullness.
Course: every 4–6 weeks or as a pre-event polish.

 

3) Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy)

How it works: Controlled micro-channels trigger wound-healing cascades to stimulate new collagen and elastin, improving texture, scars and fine lines.
Areas: face, neck, décolletage, hands; body areas for stretch marks or scarring (abdomen, thighs, hips).
 

What to expect: 45–60 mins. Feels like a mild to moderate scratchy sensation; pink/red for 12–48 hrs. Results build over 4–12 weeks.
Good for: texture, enlarged pores, acne scarring, fine lines, crepiness, stretch marks.
Course: 3–6 sessions, 4–6 weeks apart; maintenance 2–3×/year.

 

4) RF Microneedling (Tightening + Texture)

How it works: Combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy delivered into the dermis to tighten and remodel collagen while improving texture.
Areas: face, jawline, neck, décolletage; body areas with crepiness (upper arms, abdomen, knees). Can also be combined with Mesotherapy for better results.
 

What to expect: 60–75 mins. Topical numbing not needed no pain. Slight Redness/tightness 1–3 hours. Results develop 6–12+ weeks, improving firmness and texture.
Good for: mild–moderate laxity, fine lines, pores, acne scars, skin quality on face/neck/body.
Course: 3 - 6 sessions, 4–6 weeks apart; annual top-ups.

 

5) Mesotherapy (Skin Nutrient Micro-injections)

How it works: Superficial micro-injections of HA hydrators, vitamins, amino acids, peptides, antioxidants (and tailored actives) to brighten, hydrate and refine.
Areas: face (including under-eyes*), neck, décolletage, hands; selected body areas.
 

What to expect: 30–45 mins. Tiny bumps/pin-pricks settle in 12–48 hrs; mild redness/bruising possible. Glow builds over 1–4 weeks.
Good for: dullness, dehydration, crepiness, fine lines, “tired” skin.
Course: 3 sessions, 2–4 weeks apart; maintenance every 3–6 months.
*Under-eye protocols chosen carefully to minimise puffiness.

 

Treatment areas (face & body)

• Face: forehead, temples, cheeks, nose, perioral (lip lines), jawline, under-eyes, lower face.

• Neck & Décolletage: crepiness, sun damage, necklace lines.

• Hands: texture, dryness, visible fine lines.

• Body: upper arms, abdomen (post-weight change), flanks, hips, thighs/knees, back/shoulders (peels for congestion), stretch marks on tummy/hips/thighs.

 

What to expect at your appointment

1. Consultation & skin scan (where appropriate): goals, history, photos; we’ll prioritise your concerns and downtime.

2. Plan: which modality (or combo), number of sessions, homecare kit, quotes.

3. Treatment day: cleanse, prep, and the procedure. Comfort options (numbing for needling/RF).

4. Aftercare: tailored guidance (SPF 30–50 daily, pause actives, avoid heat/sauna and strenuous exercise for 24–48 hrs; specific peel/needling instructions).

5. Review: progress check and tweak plan if needed.

 

Benefits

• Customisable to your skin type, tone and downtime

• Improve texture, fine lines, pores, luminosity and firmness

• Options for pigmentation and mild acne-prone/congested skin

• Treat neck, chest, hands and body—not just the face

• Meaningful results without surgery; pair with injectables if desired

 

Considerations & possible side effects

• Temporary redness, warmth, tightness or flaking (peels); pin-pricks/bumps or light bruising (needling/meso); sun sensitivity—SPF is essential

• RF microneedling: short-term swelling/tenderness; rare risk of burns with improper aftercare—follow instructions closely

• Peels: deeper peels mean longer peeling; strict aftercare to minimise PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation), especially on darker skin tones

• Not suitable over active infection, cold sores, open wounds; recent strong peels/laser; certain medications (e.g., isotretinoin in last 6–12 months); pregnancy for some formulas—assessed case-by-case

• Results are cumulative and need a course + maintenance for best outcomes

 

Who gets the best results?

Clients who commit to a course of treatments, protect their skin with daily SPF, and use the recommended homecare between sessions. We’ll create a realistic plan that fits your lifestyle and budget.

 

FAQs

1) Which treatment is right for me?
We’ll assess your skin and priorities. As a guide: dullness/congestion → peel or dermaplaning; texture/scars/pores → microneedling/RF microneedling; dehydration/glow → mesotherapy; early laxity + texture → RF microneedling. Often, a combined plan works best.

2) How many sessions will I need?
Most protocols are 3–6 sessions (every 2–6 weeks), then maintenance every 3–6 months. We’ll outline a plan at your consult.

3) What’s the downtime?
Varies by treatment: dermaplaning (minimal), peels (light flake to 3–7 days peel), microneedling (12–48 hrs pinkness), RF microneedling (1–3 days redness/tightness), mesotherapy (12–48 hrs bumps/pin-pricks).

4) Is it safe for my skin tone?
Yes—with product/device choice and prep. We take extra care with peels on darker Fitzpatrick types to minimise PIH and may recommend gentler options.

5) Can I combine these with injectables?
Yes—timing matters. We often do skin quality first, then place injectables 1–2+ weeks later (or stage them around RF microneedling) to reduce swelling and protect results.

6) Will dermaplaning make hair grow back thicker?
No—vellus hair returns soft and fine. The treatment does not change hair type or growth rate.
