“I don’t need foundation any more”

Leah Hardy is one of the UK’s top freelance beauty writers and editors. She recently spoke to 4 of the UK’s top female cosmetic Doctors as to what treatments they have done or would have. The following is an excerpt of the article that appeared in this August (2008) Grazia magazine.

Dr Vicky Dondos, 33, is a trained hospital doctor who now works as a cosmetic aesthetic doctor at Medicetics clinic in London (020 7402 3033; www.medicetics.com)

WHAT WORKS

Chemical peels and mesotherapy: “I’m a big fan of mesotherapy [a series of tiny injections into the skin, containing a cocktail of vitamins, minerals and amino acids], to give my skin a good texture and radiance.”

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light): “This laser treatment helps smooth pigmentation, sunspots and blemishes on my cheeks. I’ve only had two sessions and I don’t need to wear foundation anymore”

The Epionce Range: “I’m always testing new products and I adore this range- especially the peel, which contains malic acid derived from apples. I have two peels which are done a week apart. I’m red for an hour afterwards, but then patches of dryness disappear, and my skin looks well-nourished, firmer and glowing. The active shield sunscreen sits really well on my skin, is transparent non-greasy and comes in SPF30. I also use the foaming cleanser and the vitamin c serum.” (www.epionce.co.uk)

WHAT DOESN’T

Presuming expensive is always better: “I do like some cheap basic products, such as the cleanser Cetaphil, which is great and very gentle.”(www.cetaphil.co.uk)

MY SURGERY SHOPPING LIST

Sculptra: It’s an injectable volumising treatment, which rebuilds collagen and puts water back into the skin.” (www.sculptra.co.uk)

The hot new laser: Our clinic now has the new Portrait Plasma laser. It has about five days of downtime, where you peel and are very red, but gives phenomenal results. Lines and pigmentation just go, and the collagen keeps on building even after the treatment.” (www.portraitpsr.com)
