Upper eye refresh by Miss Reena Kumari, Consultant Oculoplastic Surgeon at Midland Skin ✨

Upper lid blepharoplasty surgery removes redundant skin that can make eyes look heavy (and, in some cases, affect vision.)

The result: a lighter lid, a cleaner crease and a more open, brighter appearance to the eyes - as you can clearly see in this patient before and after

Blepharoplasty:

✔️ Precise removal of excess skin ± small fat pads
✔️ Subtle, long-lasting rejuvenation (scar hidden in the natural crease)
✔️ Often improves lid comfort and field of view

Hair loss in women is 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐥𝐲 common 👇

𝙄𝙩 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙖𝙡𝙨𝙤 𝙗𝙚 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙗𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙚𝙙 - 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙙.

Female pattern hair loss is still not being diagnosed or treated in many cases - it’s often not even being recognised by health care professionals women turn to for advice on hair loss.

𝘜𝘭𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘥, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘪𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘦… so getting a diagnosis from an expert is crucial.

Female pattern hair loss is also known as androgenetic alopecia. 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 - and some are even in their teens when they first show signs.

It is estimated that 𝙪𝙥 𝙩𝙤 40% 𝙤𝙛 𝙬𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙣 will be affected by female pattern hair loss at some point in their lives 🤯

Treatment options can include:

✅ Minoxidil. This lotion or foam can be obtained at any pharmacy and has been shown to slow down the process of female pattern hair loss in about 40% of users. Minoxidil needs to be continued indefinitely for the effect to be maintained.
✅ Oral minoxidil is a highly effective option we specialise in at Midland Skin for female pattern hair loss
✅ Spironolactone is also another medical solution for hair loss that we offer in clinic

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“The doctor prescribed me a combination of oral medication, topical treatment and AviClear. I am extremely pleased with the results, it has saved me both time and money.

Before this, I had tried treatments at other clinics which cost me thousands of pounds but were ineffective, and in some cases even made my condition worse. At Midland Skin, the team of highly experienced doctors together with their modern equipment made all the difference.

I truly recommend going to clinics where doctors are fully qualified and skilled, just like at Midland Skin.

You can see from the photos I’ve attached that my skin has improved dramatically. I noticed visible results after just 1–2 months. In the past, I would often break out after drinking milk, eating bread, or instant noodles. I used to believe that my diet was the main cause of my acne.
Although I tried changing my diet, it only made a small difference.

However, after my treatment at Midland Skin, I can honestly say that I now rarely experience any new breakouts. Previously I often suffered from painful, itchy, inflamed spots, but thankfully that is no longer the case. I even tried eating instant noodles and more bread again, and to my surprise, I haven’t seen any new spots appear like before. That was truly amazing to me

A big thank you to the whole team.”

Consultant-led laser treatment for Rhinophyma at Midland Skin

This fantastic patient result shows exactly how ablative CO₂ / Erbium laser can reduce the thickened, lumpy nasal tissue of rhinophyma, restoring a more natural contour and smoother skin texture. For this patient, the procedure also improved quality of life significantly; as their rhinophyma was blocking the airways and impacting breathing

Rhinophyma treatment at Midland Skin is precision procedure performed under local anaesthetic, designed to remove excess tissue with reduced bleeding, shorter downtime (healing ~10 days; most back to normal by ~2 weeks) and minimal scarring, with durable results. One or two sessions are typically planned, with a second stage for fine balance where needed.

For earlier rhinophyma, we also offer lighter/fractional ablative laser and a 1726 nm sebaceous-gland–specific laser to help limit progression and support long-term control.

Consultant-dermatologist assessment, bespoke planning, evidence-based lasers = life changing results with optimal outcomes

What do you think of this transformation? Have you had any experience with rhinophyma?

Can AviClear help rosacea? 💭
Short answer: sometimes - in the right patient. As you can clearly see in the before and after results above ⬆️

While AviClear® was developed for acne, its ability to dial down sebaceous gland activity can be useful for certain rosacea subtypes — particularly papulopustular rosacea (inflamed spots/pustules). In carefully selected patients we also see softening of early nasal swelling (early phymatous change/rhinophyma), because reducing oil gland overactivity can calm that tissue response.

What it’s not for: persistent flushing, background redness or visible capillaries - those usually need vascular lasers, topicals or prescription care. The key is precision diagnosis and a tailored plan.

Dr Rajpar’s approach:

✔️ Diagnose the rosacea subtype(s) accurately
✔️ Consider AviClear where oil-gland suppression will help inflammatory lesions or early phymatous change
✔️ Combine with targeted skincare, prescription therapies, vascular laser/BBL where needed
✔️ Track progress and adjust - because rosacea is multifactorial and individual

If you’re wondering whether you’re a candidate, book a consultant dermatologist-led assessment. The right treatment (or combination) can make a meaningful difference.

Rosacea and persistent facial redness can be difficult conditions to navigate.

The good news is, that with precise diagnosis and a tailored treatment plan, improvement is absolutely possible - as you can see here.

This patient’s results reflect careful diagnosis, consistent treatment and realistic goals - no filters, no quick fixes. Just specialist, evidence-based care and a calmer, more confident complexion ✔️

At Midland Skin, our consultant dermatologists assess:

• Rosacea subtype (erythematotelangiectatic, papulopustular, phymatous, ocular)
• Triggers (heat, alcohol, spicy foods, stress, skincare actives)
• Co-existing skin concerns that may mimic or worsen redness

Evidence-based options may include:

• Topical treatments
• Oral therapies:
• Device treatments: vascular lasers/IPL for visible vessels and background redness
• Skin-care optimisation: gentle cleansers, fragrance-free moisturisers, daily SPF 30+ (mineral filters often best tolerated)

If facial flushing, stinging or visible vessels are affecting you, a consultant-led review can help you understand your triggers and map a clear plan.

Real results, real confidence ✨

This fantastic before and after was taken after 3 sessions of AviClear; 3 months apart. You can clearly see our patient’s skin is visibly clearer, smoother and calmer - with results continuing to improve over time.

This revolutionary FDA-cleared laser targets the root cause of acne (the sebaceous glands) to deliver long-lasting improvement without medications or downtime.

AviClear allows us to achieve the best possible results for our patients, combining the most advanced technology on the market with our Consultant Dermatologists’ decades of experience treating all skin types, tones and conditions.

Before & after: Venous lake treatment at Midland Skin

Venous lakes are small, dark vascular spots that often appear on the lips. Using the 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser (Cutera Excel V+), they can be treated quickly and effectively ⚡️

During treatment the spot darkens or whitens and becomes firmer – signs the vessel has sealed. Lasers without deep enough penetration won’t fully clear the lesion… but this before and after results papped immediately post-procedure, which shows fantastic clearance, instantly!

Rhinophyma treatment is one of the most rewarding procedures in dermatology. Many patients have lived with the condition for years, often feeling stigmatised, before seeking help. Treatment is highly effective, with excellent long-term results.

Several ablative lasers can be used, and at our clinic we have access to them all. Dr Rajpar’s preferred device is the UltraPulse CO₂ laser. The CO₂ wavelength provides immediate haemostasis, allowing the procedure to be carried out more efficiently.

The laser must be able to deliver a sufficient power to vaporise excess tissue while minimising residual thermal damage. Some thermal effect is inevitable and must be anticipated during contouring, which is where the true skill and artistry of treatment lies!
