Holding Back the Years


Maintaining a youthful appearance is a goal for many of us - both
men and women alike - as the years pass by we look at ways of
preventing the onset of inevitable signs of aging. Thanks to an
established range of treatments offered by LINE BREAKER, specialist
in the provision of non-surgical procedures you can prevent the
visible signs of aging.

Founded by respected consultant surgeon, Mr Adrian Richards and
Melanie Smith a specialist aesthetic nurse, the company is committed
to preventing the visible signs of aging. The straightforward
procedures, are in the form of Botox®, Restylane® and Juvederm®
injections and a range of skin peel products including Obagi Blue
Peel and Glycolic Peel. Also included in the range of non-surgical
procedures are Isolagen® and IAL System.

Botox® is highly effective at treating forehead lines, crow's feet
and frown lines. The virtually pain free process involves injecting
a tiny amount of Botox® solution just under the skin, in sites on
the area to be treated, using a very fine needle (the same type of
needle that is used for premature babies). All in all, the
treatment takes only 10 minutes, its effects last on average of four
to six months and results can be expected in a little as fourteen
days.

Botox® treatment has been used successfully for over 20 years and is
backed by extensive clinical trials, with over 1400 medical research
papers showing it to be safe and effective. The treatment, which is
administered by a highly trained medical practitioner, works by the
botulinum toxins attaching themselves to nerve endings and blocking
the signals that would normally tell your muscles to contract. This
releases the muscles and allows the skin to repair deep wrinkles
from the bottom up.

Restylane® is a popular non-animal alternative to collagen
replacement therapy and consists of a clear gel, which will smooth
wrinkles and folds and give contours, as well as providing lip
augmentation.

Juvederm® is a hyaluronic acid in the form of viscoelastic gel,
which is transparent and homogenous and has emerged as a compound
for filling in wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid is a physiological
constituent of dermal tissue which maintains local moisture content
and is gradually reabsorbed with time.



Obagi Blue Peel® is a procedure designed to significantly improve
the appearance and health of your skin, as well as even out any
pigmentary problems involving the face and other areas of the body
suitable for men and women of any skin type and colour. It is ideal
for anyone who wants to look better and reverse the appearance of
the ageing process. Those who have blemish-prone skin, wrinkles,
pigmentation problems, sun damage, or general poor skin quality will
benefit the most.

Glycolic Peel is comprised of an all natural alpha hydroxy acid
derived from sugar cane. Alpha Hydroxy acids occur naturally in
certain fruits and foods. Of all the alpha hydroxy acids, Glycolic
is the smallest in molecular size. This small molecular size allows
it to penetrate the skin.

Treatment with Glycolic acid is gentler than chemical peels and is
used to improve and smooth the texture of the skin of the face by
removing its damaged outer layers.
Rejuvenation treatment unlike any other available today.

IAL System is a long acting bio-revitalisation programme to recreate
a youthful appearance by restoring elasticity, firmness and
hydration of skin. As we age, the level of naturally occurring
hyaluronic acid in our skin decreases considerably, leading to the
appearance of ageing skin and the formation of lines and wrinkles.
IAL stimulates the production of new collagen, elastin and
hyaluronic acid, all vital components of younger looking skin.

• Botulinum toxin A (Botox®) is a chemical produced by the
