New at SE1: amino acid skin injections. Healthier skin, from the inside out.
We are delighted to welcome a new treatment to the SE1 menu. Amino acid skin injections, with Celora™ Vita and Skin Hydropower® by Italfarmacia, are all about the health of your skin. They are not about adding volume or changing the shape of your face. They are about helping your skin look and behave at its best.
Skin health first, not volume
When people hear “injectables”, they often think of filler and volume. This is different. Amino acid injections are skin quality treatments. They are delivered into the superficial layer of the skin, where they support the skin’s internal environment, rather than lifting, plumping or restructuring the face.
The result is not a different face. It is your face, with skin that feels better hydrated, softer and more resilient, and that looks fresher and more radiant.
Why amino acids?
Amino acids are the building blocks of the proteins in your skin. Combined with hyaluronic acid, which holds water in the skin, they give your skin what it needs to hydrate and revitalise itself. Both of our products bring these two together:
- Celora™ Vita is a solution based on hyaluronic acid and amino acids, focused on improving skin quality, hydration, texture, elasticity and glow.
- Skin Hydropower® combines hyaluronic acid 2.5%, in two molecular weights, with nine amino acids, to deeply hydrate and revitalise the skin.
The skin health benefits
Results build gradually over the course. Patients often notice:
- Deeper hydration, so skin feels comfortable and looks less tired
- Smoother texture and a more even surface
- Softness and elasticity, with skin that feels more supple
- Softening of fine lines linked to dehydration
- A natural, healthy glow
And because nothing about your features changes, the results are natural-looking. Friends will notice that you look well, not that you have had something done.
Who is it for?
Amino acid injections suit anyone who wants to improve how their skin looks and behaves. That includes supporting your skin early, from your late 20s onwards, as well as dull or dehydrated skin, reduced elasticity, fine lines and uneven texture. They can also be a lovely support if you are noticing skin changes during perimenopause or menopause.
They also work beautifully alongside other treatments. While other treatments may target structure or specific concerns, amino acids support overall skin quality, which can lead to more balanced and longer-lasting results.
What does the treatment involve?
We start with a consultation, to assess your skin, understand your goals and recommend the right product for you. The treatment itself is a series of small injections into the superficial layer of the skin. It is relatively quick, and numbing cream can be used to keep you comfortable.
A course of three sessions is needed, spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart, at £250 per session.
