Both can work well in trained hands with good equipment. The right choice depends on your skin tone and hair colour, which we assess with a free patch test.
Darker skin needs particular care with any light-based treatment, and a laser is often the safer choice. We have both a Lynton Nd:YAG laser and Lynton IPL, and choose between them according to your skin type, after a free patch test.
No. Home devices are much lower powered, so results are usually more modest and slower.
No. Laser uses a single focused wavelength; IPL uses filtered broad-spectrum light. Both target hair pigment.
It depends on your skin. We assess laxity, texture and fat separately and recommend the treatment, or combination, that will help most.
Yes. If Morpheus8 is specifically what you want, we are happy to suggest a reputable clinic.
It depends on the problem: laser skin tightening for mild laxity, microneedling for texture and scarring, Profhilo for hydration and early laxity, or ONDA for stubborn fat.
For the goals it is used for, we already offer treatments that give our patients predictable results, and we prefer to do those well.
No. It is a well-established device used by many clinics. Our choice not to offer it is not a safety claim.
Surgical rhinoplasty permanently reshapes bone and cartilage and can reduce size, with a longer recovery. A non-surgical nose job refines the profile temporarily with filler and no downtime.
Yes. Hyaluronic acid filler can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed (£180).
Often, yes. Filler placed above and below a small to moderate bump can make the bridge look straighter.
No. Filler adds volume, so it reshapes and balances rather than reduces. For a smaller nose, surgical rhinoplasty is the right option.
Usually 12 to 18 months, sometimes longer, before a top-up is needed.
Most people describe mild discomfort rather than pain. A numbing cream is applied first, and the filler contains local anaesthetic.
It can be done safely by an experienced injector, but it is not risk-free. The nose has a delicate blood supply, so anatomical knowledge, small volumes and careful technique matter. Dr Vishal Patel carries out every treatment.
At Dental & Wellness London, Islington, dermal filler is from £350, and your exact fee depends on how much is needed. The aesthetic consultation is £65, redeemable in full against treatment.
Usually the orthodontic treatment comes first, because the device is made to fit your teeth in their final positions. We plan the sequence together.
Mild jaw or tooth tenderness in the first week or two is common and normally settles as you adapt. Ongoing review by the fitting dentist matters.
A custom device typically lasts three to five years before the material wears or the fit changes enough to need replacing.
NHS provision is limited and usually reserved for diagnosed sleep apnoea, often where CPAP isn't tolerated. Most people seeking a device for primary snoring obtain one privately.
A shop-bought mouthguard is softened in hot water and bitten into — no precise advancement, no adjustment. A custom dental device is made from accurate impressions and fine-tuned over the first weeks.
For some people with mild-to-moderate sleep apnoea, yes — but only as part of a sleep physician's plan, after a sleep study has confirmed the diagnosis. We do not diagnose sleep apnoea.
The fee for a custom dental anti-snoring device depends on the device type and materials, and is quoted in writing after assessment. 0% APR finance over 12 months via Tabeo, subject to status.
Not inherently. Conservative, minimally invasive treatment can save cost over time by preserving healthy tooth tissue.
