Collagen is the magic ingredient that holds our skin together, providing elasticity and firmness, and we have it in abundance when we are young. In fact, our skin is composed of 80% collagen when we are younger, but after the age of 25 collagen production slows down significantly. Sun exposure and other bad habits can further deplete existing collagen.

We can see this reduction in collagen levels in the form of lines and wrinkles and sagging skin on our brow, around the nose and mouth and along the jawline.

All is not lost though; Collagen Injections can replenish our skin’s store of collagen, restoring more youthful contours and plumpness. Our Collagen Injections are composed of a collagen powder which, when injected into the dermis, stimulates production of fibroblasts, a cell that produces the connective tissues in the body including collagen.

Collagen Injections are used in a similar way to hyaluronic acid dermal fillers; they can tackle many of the visible signs of facial ageing that bother patients. This includes lines and wrinkles, sagging of the skin, loss of volume and changes to skin tone and quality and they are ideally suited to men and women who wish to tackle many of the signs of facial ageing.

What Does Getting Started With Us Look Like?

If you’ve been considering an aesthetic treatment to rejuvenate your skin or reshape your body, then the first step is to get in touch with the clinic to arrange a consultation with our medical director Dr Joshua Berkowitz or one of his team, depending on your requirements.

Call us on 0207 224 2247 or email us on info@wimpoleaesthetics.co.uk to arrange your consultation.

The consultation is an essential part of the patient journey as it gives us the opportunity to discuss your objectives and the outcome you’re hoping to achieve. We will talk you through the procedure or treatment plan, clearly explain any possible risks and the results you can expect, as well as answer all of your questions.

Procedures at Wimpole Aesthetics are carried out under the direction of our medical director Dr Joshua Berkowitz and his team. We aim to deliver practical, safe and effective medical aesthetic alternatives to cosmetic surgery whilst always respecting a patient’s privacy, dignity and confidentiality.

Our care and support continues after you leave the clinic. You are provided with comprehensive aftercare advice appropriate to the treatment you have received and we welcome patients getting in touch if they have any questions regarding their experience and results.

At Wimpole Aesthetics, we provide a wide variety of medical treatments and non-surgical rejuvenating procedures in the field of anti-ageing and aesthetic medicine. Our medical director Dr Joshua Berkowitz stays abreast of the latest developments in this field, but always ensures that any treatment we offer can deliver safe and effective results.

We love to hear our patients tell us that we have the feel of a local clinic right in the heart of London’s medical district.

Our Collagen Injections are safe with no side effects. It is also hypoallergenic, so you are unlikely to suffer an allergic reaction.
There may be some redness, swelling and tenderness at the injection site immediately after treatment, but this should disappear after a few days.
The collagen is injected in tiny amounts into the dermis, using a very thin and short needle. Our medical director Dr Joshua Berkowitz will deliver the collagen into the treatment area and then gently massage the skin.
Generally, we recommend two to four treatment sessions, but Dr Berkowitz can provide a bespoke treatment programme after your consultation where he will address the extent of facial ageing and loss of collagen that has occurred.
For patients that have started to notice that their skin is not as elastic, firm or smooth as it once was, Collagen Injections can produce a very subtle but effective rejuvenation.
Typically, you will start to see the results after a week or two post treatment. After you’ve completed the treatment programme, there will be a noticeable improvement in skin quality and health. Results can last 12 to 18 months and then we advise you follow a maintenance programme.

What our patients say

Natalie and Dr Josh have been incredible in boosting my confidence and my skin! They truly listen and deliver 100% natural results every time. Natalie is completely honest, professional, has integrity and that’s why I trust her fully. Wimpole clinic have a much greater range of cutting edge treatments beyond anti wrinkle treatment that have resulted in my skin improving with age. It’s mad but true. They always assess what is right for my face and my skin on the day and advise according to what my skin needs. I’ve been going to Wimpole Aesthetics for years now, initially drawn to their incredible IV boosts but am now unable to ever turn back. Class, quality and aesthetic results that are truly worth it!!!

Dr Josh is a caring and knowledgeable doctor, his consultation is very detailed, he answered all the questions that I am concerned. Dr Natalie did the filler and skin booster, she takes care of me a lot, even after the treatment she still cares about me, I booked the review after two weeks, highly recommended! Btw, they have a Chinese speaking staff so don’t worry if you are not familiar with medical terminology!

I have been living with scarring above my upper lip, as a result of electrolysis treatment 25 years ago, in the form of a deep vertical line and small indentations in the skin. I sought help from Wimpole Aesthetics, and from the moment that I entered the small, personal clinic I was totally put at ease and welcomed by the extremely professional and friendly team. I received a course of Mesotherapy and Dermapen treatment and am absolutely delighted with the results. I had almost given up on ever having smooth line-free skin above my upper lip again. I highly recommend letting Wimpole Aesthetics take care of you.

Having lived in Australia for over 10 years, my skin had suffered mild sun-damage and had developed a lot of discolouration on my face in particular. Also, as I approached the age of 40, I noticed a lot of wrinkles appearing! I decided to have Microdermabrasion treatment and the improvements after just 3 treatments were extremely encouraging. I have booked a further 2 treatments in coming months and I am so excited about seeing further benefits to the look and texture of my skin.
