<p>Surgery is old hat these days: the current vibe is for aesthetic work that is completely undetectable. One hot new beauty treatment in the field of what&#8217;s called &#8216;regenerative dermatology&#8217; is using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) extracted from the client&#8217;s blood as filler. You may have heard of it – it&#8217;s known colloquially as the &#8216;vampire facial&#8217;, but don&#8217;t be (too) squeamish. Leading aesthetic doctors like the award-winning <a href="https://drsophieshotter.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sophie Shotter</a> champion PRP as a way of restoring volume in the face and rejuvenating the skin. It can be used alongside other regenerative techniques like exosomes and polynucleotide injections for a natural-looking anti-aging boost.</p>



<p><strong>Where to try it:</strong> The <a href="https://oxfordskinclinic.co.uk/treatments/prp/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Oxford Skin Clinic</a> offers PRP treatments from £500, or £800 for a course of two..</p>

<p>Deep sea divers use hyperbaric oxygen chambers to treat The Bends – but it has its benefits for land-lubbers too. It turns out that breathing pure, unadulterated O2 in a compressed climate can not only help heal wounds, injuries and infections, it gives you a zingy beauty boost too. How does it work? You sit in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber (see above) where air pressure is increased to a higher level than normal atmospheric pressure. This allows your lungs to gather more oxygen, which is then transported by your blood to damaged tissues. The super-high O2 level promotes faster healing and a host of beauty benefits to knock years off the clock: increased collagen production to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, plus improved skin tone and texture. Who knew sitting relaxing for an hour or so (you can even read a book in the chamber) could be so rejuvenating? </p>



<p><strong>Where to try it: </strong><a href="https://soma-house.co.uk/hyperbaric-chamber/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Soma House</a>, nr High Wycombe, offers sessions of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for £90, or £250 for three.</p>

<p>If the idea of injectables ain&#8217;t your bag, there&#8217;s a hot new beauty treatment that&#8217;s being used as an alternative to Botox and fillers. It launched in London in 2023 so it&#8217;s still an in-the-know option, but it&#8217;s available in our &#8216;hood at the <a href="https://eraclinics.co.uk/emface/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Era Skin &amp; Laser Clinic in Thame</a>. It works by zapping your skin (in a a gentle way!) with a combo of radiofrequency energy to heat and remodel collagen and high intensity facial electromagnetic stimulation. The results? Droopy facial muscle fibres get a workout, meaning your skin sits more smoothly and crows feet, fine lines and saggy jawlines are shown the door, with noticeable improvements in 4-6 sessions (read our verdict <a href="https://bucksoxon.muddystilettos.co.uk/lifestyle/emface-botox-fillers-alternative-non-invasive-oxfordshire-buckinghamshire/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>).

<p>Muddy&#8217;s go-to, the H Spa at Horwood House hotel near Milton Keynes, introduced No Needle Mesotherapy in spring 24 and it’s steadily increasing in demand (for both one-off treats and regulars) as word is getting around. Those looking for radiant skin, a snatched jaw, lip plumping, and smoothing away fine lines are choosing this over Botox. The non-invasive treatment is pain-free (think hot stone massage and tingling), relaxing, and requires no downtime or risk of bruising. It works by pushing skin treatments (goodies like hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, vitamins and peptides) deeper into your skin through electrowaves and pulses.

<p>Not as scary as it sounds: HIFU (which stands for High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a proven technology that uses ultrasound energy to penetrate the skin at different depths to stimulate collagen and elastin production to tighten and tone the skin. In short, it&#8217;s a painless and non-invasive way to plump sagging skin and reduce wrinkles, and the effects last up to 18 months. It&#8217;s so transformative, in fact, it&#8217;s been referred to as a non-surgical facelift, with not even a needle in sight. Sign us up!</p>
