Understanding Dehydrated & Crepey Skin

This is a condition where the skin lacks water. It can affect any skin type, including oily skin. Dehydrated skin often looks dull, feels tight, and may show fine, superficial lines.

  • Dry Skin: This is a skin type where the skin lacks natural oils (sebum). It often feels rough, scaly, and may be prone to irritation.
  • Crepey Skin: This is a textural change where the skin becomes thin, fragile, and finely wrinkled, resembling crepe paper. It is primarily caused by the breakdown of collagen and elastin fibres in the dermis, often due to sun damage and the natural ageing process.

How we at Shumaila’s can treat this

Our clinical approach begins with a thorough skin analysis to correctly diagnose your condition. We then recommend a treatment protocol focused on replenishing dermal hydration and stimulating collagen production for long-lasting improvements in skin quality and texture.

I’ve had a great experience at Shumaila’s Clinic in Loughton. After struggling with dermatitis, rosacea, and very sensitive skin since December, I finally found a doctor that understood what was going on. Dr Filza took the time to explain everything, created the right treatment plan, and my skin has improved so much since the first appointment in June. She is professional, caring, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone struggling with skin conditions.

The treatment was relaxing, and my skin felt refreshed, smooth, and glowing afterwards. They took the time to explain everything and made me feel comfortable throughout.

I had a facial treatment. From the initial consultation through to the treatment itself, Filza was very friendly, highly knowledgeable, and took great care throughout the entire process. I’ve yet to see the full results, but based on my experience so far, I’ll definitely be continuing with her for further treatments.

I have done hydra-facial with Gonimete. I was a little bit nervous and scared but I felt a great sense of ease after being with her. She is very gentle, warm, and amazingggg on what she do. I had instant glow and I felt so refreshed afterwards. Its not just about the amazing treatment but also the ability to make the patient feel welcome and at ease. And she is the one for that.

At Shumaila’s, we understand that every double chin is unique, requiring personalised treatment approaches.

Our comprehensive range of solutions allows us to recommend the most appropriate option based on your specific concerns, lifestyle, and desired outcomes.

Non Surgical

Primary Bio-Revitalising Treatments

Profhilo®

Profhilo is often referred to as an “injectable moisturiser.” It is composed of a high concentration of pure hyaluronic acid, which spreads through the skin to provide deep, long-lasting hydration. It also stimulates the production of four different types of collagen and elastin, improving skin firmness and elasticity.

Ideal for
Patients with widespread dehydration, dullness, and early signs of skin laxity

Results
A noticeable improvement in skin hydration, radiance, and firmness after two sessions

Management
A standard protocol involves two treatments spaced one month apart. Maintenance is typically every 6-9 months

Polynucleotide Treatment

Polynucleotides are bio-revitalising agents that work at a cellular level. They signal the body to boost collagen production, improve skin elasticity, and protect against free radical damage. They are excellent for treating fine lines and improving the thin, delicate skin around the eyes and mouth.

Ideal for
Patients with crepey skin, fine lines, and poor skin quality, particularly around the eyes

Results
Gradual improvement in skin texture, thickness, and firmness over a course of treatments

Management
A course of 2-4 treatments is typically recommended for optimal results

Progressive Treatments

Supporting Skin Quality Treatments

Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy involves micro-injections of a customised cocktail of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and hyaluronic acid into the skin. This nourishes the skin cells, improves circulation, and provides a boost of hydration to combat dullness and dehydration.

Ideal for
Patients needing a general boost in skin health, radiance, and hydration

Results
Brighter, more hydrated, and healthier-looking skin

Management
A course of treatments is recommended for cumulative benefits

Hydrafacial

A Hydrafacial provides immediate, superficial hydration. It uses a patented vortex-fusion system to cleanse, exfoliate, extract impurities, and infuse the skin with hydrating serums. While it doesn’t address deep dermal dehydration, it is an excellent treatment for improving surface texture and providing an instant glow.

Ideal for
All skin types needing immediate surface hydration and a brighter complexion.

Results
Instantly smoother, brighter, and more hydrated-looking skin

Management
Cean b performed as a one-off treatment or as a regular monthly maintenance facial
