The level of innovation in aesthetic medicine is one of the things we love most about being in this field, and 2025 is set to be no exception!
We are proud to work at the cutting edge of aesthetics and to have the opportunity to offer revolutionary treatments to patients at both our Plymouth and Wells clinics.
Read on to find out about some of the newest treatments available and how they might be suitable for you.
New Collagen Stimulators
One of the most exciting developments at Skin Excellence Clinics is the introduction of JULÄINE™ of Sweden. Dr Strawford is the first doctor in the UK using this revolutionary collagen stimulating product and has already been seeing some fantastic, but natural-looking results.
How does JULÄINE™ of Sweden work?
Developed by Nordberg Medical, the patented technology and revolutionary biomaterials gradually produce new collagen to naturally restore elasticity, hydration and volume to your skin. The poly-L-lactic (PLLA) injectable acts as a biostimulator to produce collagen for periods lasting up to 24 months.
JULÄINE™ is a second generation of PLLA in microspheres LaSynPro technology. Unlike other collagen stimulators it works through only pathways that produce healthy Type1 collagen, so there is no risk of inflammation, fibrosis, and nodules.
What are the key benefits of JULÄINE™ of Sweden?
- Reverses laxity by stimulating collagen production in ageing areas of your face, neck, and body
- Restores elasticity, hydration, and natural beauty in a gradual and controlled manner
- Safe and quick injectable treatment with minimal downtime required
- Improves skin quality with a gradual skin-tightening effect
- Results can last up to two years (and longer with ongoing treatment)

Hormone Replacement Therapy by Skin Excellence Clinics

You have probably heard of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), but have you heard of Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)?
Conversations about hormonal changes, particularly around the menopause, have grown louder in recent years, with many women being prescribed HRT to alleviate symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. BHRT takes this a step further, prescribing the bioidentical hormones based on your symptoms and blood analysis. Furthermore, both men and women can benefit from this therapy.
As we age, hormone levels naturally decline, leading to various physical and mental changes. In men, testosterone drops, causing fatigue, muscle loss, and lower libido. In women, oestrogen and progesterone decrease during menopause, leading to hot flushes, mood swings, and bone loss. Other hormones like growth hormone, DHEA, and thyroid hormones also decline, affecting metabolism, skin health, and overall vitality. BHRT can help restore hormonal balance and alleviate these symptoms.
How does Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) work?
We conduct a full consultation with a blood test to discuss your symptoms and analyse your hormone levels, then create a bespoke treatment plan based on this.
We have full access to a Compounding Pharmacy with a team of highly trained superintendent pharmacists. They ensure timely dispensing, quality training and product assurance.
Our approach aims to the root cause of the hormonal imbalance and focuses on restoring levels back to optimum and supporting its maintenance.
What are the key benefits of BHRT?
The key benefit of BHRT is that it is a personalised prescription based on your symptoms and deficiencies. The treatment can help with:
- Improved energy and vitality
- Better mood and mental clarity
- Increased muscle mass and fat loss
- Stronger libido and sexual performance
- Enhanced cardiovascular and bone health
- Better sleep and recovery, including reduction of night sweats
- Improvement in skin elasticity
- Reduced hair loss

Skin Resurfacing with Tixel and Mezotix
While Tixel is something we have used at Skin Excellence Clinics for a long time, we believe it is a fantastic treatment for the outcomes that many of our patients come to us for – namely a natural look, with little to no downtime.
It is also something we can use in conjunction with other treatments such as polynucleotides, exosomes, or JULÄINE™ of Sweden, for even more significant results.
How do Tixel and Mezotix work?
Tixel and Mezotix are advanced skin rejuvenation treatments that use thermo-mechanical (heat) energy to improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. Both treatments are non-ablative and utilise heat-based technology to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating natural collagen production and enhancing skin renewal.
Mezotix is a gentler treatment, opening temporary channels in the skin to allow effective topical treatments and youth activating serums to penetrate more deeply into the skin. It achieves similar results to strong chemical peels without the downtime associated with acids.
Mezotix treatments can also be used to reduce pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, and uneven skin tone, while leaving the skin more smooth, hydrated, and radiant.
At the stronger Tixel settings the heat plate is left on the skin for fractions of a second longer than Mezotix and the heat generated from this has a more ablative effect on the outer layer of the skin, causing more significant tightening and remodelling of the skin.

What are the benefits of Tixel and Mezotix?
Tixel and Mezotix are versatile treatments for various skin concerns, such as:
- Skin resurfacing (reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation)
- Acne scar reduction
- Improving skin laxity and overall texture
- Enhancing the absorption of topical treatments and serums
- Skin tightening and rejuvenation
- Reducing fine lines and wrinkles
- Treating pigmentation and sun damage
Dermalux LED Phototherapy

Using Dermalux in combination with other treatments can also improve healing time and overall results.
How does Dermalux Tri-Wave MD work?
Dermalux is a pain-free and side-effect-free treatment which uses LED phototherapy technology to bathe targeted areas of your skin in energising waves of light, encouraging skin repair, renewal and rejuvenation.
Through a combination of red, blue and near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths, the cutting-edge technology targets deeper cells to accelerate the healing of acne, inflammation, pigmentation, sun damage and other complex skin conditions.
What are the benefits of Dermalux Tri-Wave MD?
