Always seek medical advice and give any procedure careful consideration before going ahead. It is important to note that results may vary depending on the age and health of the person.
South Belfast clinic Woodford Medical is celebrating 25 years at the forefront of the aesthetics world - not just in Northern Ireland but right across the UK.
With award-winning specialist Dr Mervyn Patterson at the helm, the team has built its reputation on offering innovative therapies like anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers and cutting-edge laser technology with Broad Band Light therapy.
“For 25 years, discretion has been at the heart of our approach,” said Dr Patterson. “We understand that what our clients want more than anything is a gentle and natural-looking transformation.
“They do not want a vastly altered appearance. They want that special glow, a boost in their skin’s vitality that leaves them looking and feeling great.”
Clinics throughout the UK
Having opened in Belfast in 1999, treatments at the clinic are carried out by a team of medical practitioners and aesthetic specialists, led by Dr Patterson and accompanied by Dr Nuala Devlin. Woodford Medical also has clinics throughout the UK, including in London, Cambridge, Essex and Leamington Spa.
As the team continues to excel locally and across the UK in its provision of injectables tackling everything from fine lines and wrinkles to migraines, sweating and bruxism (or teeth-grinding), they are also highly adept in administering dermal fillers to subtly add volume, create contours and plump out skin.
Pioneering treatments
Among Woodford Medical’s latest pioneering treatments is Sciton Broad Band Light therapy, used to clear pigmentation, treat rosacea, address active acne and minimise scarring.
The team also offers the latest JetPeel treatment, a unique and innovative technology which uses high velocity pressure to penetrate the dermis and hydrate the skin through a gentle moisturising jet-stream to combat a range of skin conditions including ageing and acne.
Profhilo Face and Body is another ground-breaking treatment, an injectable formulated with a potent concentration of hyaluronic acid to combat skin laxity, while polynucleotides are an effective way to enhance collagen for firmer and less wrinkled skin.
Woodford Medical has also recently introduced two new skincare lines from the US. Vital Assist introduces a leap in retinoid skincare, formulated to enhance stability, boost penetration and reduce irritation, whilst a range from NEOVA focuses on preventing cellular damage before it becomes visible and permanent.
“Staying still is not an option”
Dr Patterson says: “In a field like aesthetics, staying still is not an option. We work tirelessly to embrace new and emerging trends and developments. Fantastic new treatments and skincare products are coming onto the market regularly and it’s crucial for myself, my team and our clients that we embrace these developments through rigorous training to ensure we’re offering the very best services in the market today.
“Over 25 years, as the industry has continued to evolve, we have grown with it, as we hold on to our core principles of achieving pleasing, natural results and providing the highest standard of care to our clients.”
