It's facial named 'The Skin Whisperer' is one of the most expensive treatments in the world. But why is it so costly, what does it involve and how much does it cost? If the clinic is tried, tested and approved by senior members of the British Royal family, we'd argue that their treatments are worth giving a go. Here's everything you need to know...
What is London's most expensive facial?
'The Skin Whisperer' from Skinfluencer London "combines proven technologies including UltraFormer III, PRP (also dubbed the Vampire Facial) and Profhilo to stimulate collagenesis, remodel tissue integrity, and restore overall laxity, tone and texture for a more youthful and healthy appearance" the Skinfluencers explained.
The treatment is broken down into three parts. Firstly, "the Ultraformer III is used to introduce precision-depth ultrasound to lift and tighten the skin."
"This is followed by what is commonly marketed as the Vampire Facial, whereby the doctor expertly places your harvested protein factors via injections under the skin."
Two weeks later you will have the third and final step of the treatment: "The third step of this wonder-protocol is administered two weeks after your initial treatment. The doctor administers Profhilo–a deeply hydrating bio remodelling injectable product of hyaluronic acid that draws water from your body and rebuilds new collagen to rejuvenate and plump the skin.
Skinfluencers recommend you follow up again after 28 days for a second Profhilo® treatment for best results. " To ensure the skin looks as amazing as possible, LED light therapy and enzyme peels are also used."
How much does The Skin Whisperer cost?
The clinic currently offers London's most expensive facial and one of the most expensive facials in the world. (The treatment costs £3,000 for the four treatments over six weeks).
