Ageing in your 40s
Considering non-surgical treatments to prevent and reverse ageing in your 40s is essential for maintaining a youthful and refreshed appearance. As individuals reach their 40s, signs of ageing such as deeper wrinkles, loss of skin elasticity, jowling and volume loss become more noticeable. These changes can be concerning for patients’ as they affect self-confidence and overall appearance, making proactive and corrective measures important.
Non-surgical treatments like anti wrinkle, dermal fillers, and device led treatments are effective options for individuals in their 40s. Anti wrinkle treatments can smooth out dynamic wrinkles by relaxing facial muscles, reducing the appearance of crow’s feet and forehead lines. Dermal fillers restore volume to areas like the cheeks, under eyes, and lips, providing a more youthful contour and reducing the appearance of deeper lines. Device treatments target sun damage, pigmentation, and fine lines by stimulating collagen production and remodelling skin to improve overall skin texture.
Patients opting for these treatments can expect to slow down the ageing process, achieve firmer and smoother skin, and restore lost volume. These minimally invasive procedures offer natural-looking results with minimal downtime, helping individuals maintain and enhance their appearance and confidence in their 40s.
Treatment options
Anti-wrinkle injections
Anti-wrinkle injections involve injecting botulinum toxin into targeted facial muscles to temporarily relax them. Anti-wrinkle injections tackle the signs of ageing by minimising that pull and tug on the skin, caused by overactive muscles. This helps your skin look smoother, refreshed, and tighter without altering your natural facial expressions.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments used to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They typically contain hyaluronic acid or other substances that mimic the skin's natural components for youthful results. When dermal fillers are placed in the targeted area, at the correct levels and in the right quantity, you will achieve lifting and smoothing of the skin.
EMShape Neo
The EMShape Neo is the first and only non-invasive device to combine HIFEM (high intensity electromagnetic energy) and Radio Frequency to reduce fat and tone muscle. But what does that mean exactly? Electromagnetic energy is used to stimulate muscle contractions, making those muscles feel as though they’ve done crunches or squats nonstop for 30-minutes. What makes the EMShape Neo special is that it combines this with radiofrequency, a type of energy that is used to heat the fat just below your skin which works to reduce it. There is also the added benefit of skin tightening which can help to make the area look smoother and more toned overall.
Fat dissolving injections
Fat dissolving injections are safe, effective treatments that reduce fat cells in the treated area. They produce long-lasting results, which means you can banish those unwanted areas of stubborn fat permanently. They can be used to treat small, exercise-resistant, pockets of fat around the chin, chest, arms, abdomen and thighs. It is beneficial for body contouring and skin tightening, but it is not the recommended treatment for weight loss.
HarmonyCa
HarmonyCa is a new hybrid biostimulator filler. It has 2 components to it- Hyaluronic acid (what dermal filler is made of and found in an abundancy in your skin) and then a collagen stimulating component calcium hydroxyapatite. This calcium encourages your skin’s own production of collagen and elastin. This revoluntionary injectable treatmentt is one of a kind, and no other filler or biostimulatory offers the results achieved with HarmonyCa in just one session.
HIFU Non Surgical Face Lift & Fat Reduction
Our non surgical facelift treatment uses High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) to stimulate the deep structural support layers of the skin, and creates lift by stimulating new collagen and elastin formation. This not only improves the texture and surface of the skin, but can lift and tighten unwanted sagging areas on the face and neck.
Lumecca
Lumecca is the most powerful intense pulsed light (IPL) to treat pigmented and vascular lesions. After just one use, patients notice significant improvements in the complexion and clarity of the skin. Lumecca operates using photothermolysis, which provides a photofacial through the delivery of a comfortable light treatment.
Microneedling
A microneedling and mesotherapy facial combines two advanced skin rejuvenation techniques to enhance skin health and appearance. Microneedling involves using tiny needles to create micro-injuries on the skin, stimulating natural collagen and elastin production, which helps reduce scars and wrinkles. Mesotherapy complements this by infusing vitamins, enzymes, and other revitalising substances directly into the skin, promoting hydration and elasticity. This dual treatment effectively rejuvenates the skin, improving texture, firmness, and overall skin tone, making it a popular choice for those seeking comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
Morpheus8
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to target the deeper layers of the skin, promoting extensive collagen production and fat remodelling (on body). This advanced treatment tightens, lifts, and rejuvenates the skin, effectively reducing wrinkles, acne scars, and sagging across both the face and body. By penetrating subdermal layers, Morpheus8 delivers more dramatic and comprehensive results than traditional microneedling, leading to smoother, firmer, and more youthful skin. This minimally invasive procedure is versatile, allowing customisation for different skin types and concerns, making it a popular choice for those seeking significant aesthetic improvements without extensive downtime.
Polynucleotides
Polynucleotide treatments are a form of regenerative therapy used in advanced skincare to improve skin hydration, elasticity, and overall texture. These treatments involve injecting naturally occurring DNA fragments, called polynucleotides, which stimulate cell growth and repair. By promoting collagen production and enhancing tissue repair, polynucleotide treatments effectively rejuvenate ageing skin, reduce wrinkles, and improve skin hydration and firmness. This innovative approach harnesses the body's own healing mechanisms, offering a non-invasive option for achieving healthier, more youthful-looking skin.
Profhilo & Skin Boosters
If you are worried about your skin becoming looser, more stretchy, dry, or wrinkly, then a Profhilo or Skin Booster treatment is for you. Either is fantastic for improving skin texture, and improving the ‘snap-back’ feeling of your skin. They are non-invasive, non-surgical ways to infuse 100% Hyaluronic acid into your skin to give you a dewy air-brushed look. It has been acclaimed to restore the condition of your skin to how it looked 5-years ago. If you feel that the tissue quality of your skin has dropped significantly and your skin looks older, however, you are not quite ready to consider dermal fillers, then Profhilo or a Skin Booster is an excellent option.
Radio Frequency Skin Tightening
Radio frequency skin tightening is a non-invasive treatment that uses heat and radiofrequency to increase collagen production in both the face and body. This results in lifting, tightening, and contouring, almost like ironing your skin – in turn helping reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles – and aiding recovery from age spots and hyperpigmentation. At Look Lovely London, we use a skin tightening device called Forma, by InMode.

Prescribed medical grade skincare – there’s literally no substitute. This elite skincare can only be found in clinics where your products will be prescribed FOR YOU by a medical practitioner. You will have a personalised treatment plan, and we will monitor your results. Your skin will visibly look and feel healthier. But what does that mean exactly? Electromagnetic energy is used to stimulate muscle contractions, making those muscles feel as though they’ve done crunches or squats nonstop for 30-minutes. What makes the EMShape Neo special is that it combines this with radiofrequency, a type of energy that is used to heat the fat just below your skin which works to reduce it. There is also the added benefit of skin tightening which can help to make the area look smoother and more toned overall.
Wow Fusion Facial
Wow Fusion – or medical mesotherapy – is a cutting-edge treatment that is fast growing in popularity. The treatment uses a uniquely formulated 24-carat gold needle device to treat skin conditions, such as oily skin, enlarged pores, acne, pigmentation and redness. You get the benefits of micro-needling with the addition of mesotherapy. The micro-needling helps stimulate collagen and elastin for a more youthful-looking skin and the Wow fusion serums hydrate, brighten, stimulate, and improve the texture and tone of the skin. Whilst the added benefit of toxin helps decongest and tighten your skin giving you the Wow factor.
