Aesthetics – An Overview
Aesthetics
We utilise the latest premier gold standard medical-grade technology to provide effective longevity-focussed non-surgical aesthetic treatments at our clinic in London.
We tackle aesthetics on all levels – quite literally – using a combination of therapist-led and doctor-led treatments to address the outer, middle, and deepest layers of skin. We work with you to achieve skin rejuvenation and prevent skin ageing in the long-term.
"Our goal? Utilising our longevity approach to aesthetics to help you to exude confidence and love the skin you’re in at any age."
Whether you have specific concerns, want anti-ageing treatments, or preventative skincare, we can keep you looking great for longer.
Our expert therapists will take great care of you during and after treatment. The trust and rapport we build with our clientele means that we retain our loyal client base, and receive a great deal of word-of-mouth referrals.
“We are proud to deliver long-term results that can’t be achieved with other treatments. With our longevity-based approach to aesthetics, you’ll find that in 5 years, when you compare your skin to friends’ who haven’t had anything done, you’ll really notice a big difference.”

A Doctor-led approach to aesthetics means that we won’t just provide treatment without consideration of all the other factors at play or influencing your skin.
You’re in safe hands, and will benefit from our in-depth medical knowledge of the face and body, and can trust that we have training to deal with any complications that may arise.
A doctor-led approach means a holistic approach. We can advise and treat you on other aspects of health that impact skin, like hormones, gut issues and nutrient supplementation. Prescription-only bioidentical hormonal skincare is also available as bespoke creams made in our preferred compounding pharmacy.
We are also able to offer prescription-only topical or local anaesthetic and oral painkillers where required, and prescribe other medications if the need arises.

At Harpal Clinic, we take a bespoke approach to treatment. Whilst we are happy to see you as a one-off, we prefer to work with you long-term to help you achieve results you’ll still see in years to come. We look at your goals, skin concerns and budget, and come up with a plan to get you to where you want to be.
It is very easy to ‘overdo it’ when it comes to treatments such as Botox and fillers; however, at Harpal Clinic, we will never carry out a treatment that is likely to appear unnatural. We believe that slow and subtle wins the race, and prefer to make small, sympathetic tweaks with every treatment – to leave you looking the best version of yourself.
“The results were perfect - natural looking and subtle in exactly the way I'd hoped for. She really understands what makes each person's face unique and I appreciate that she's not just about 'making lips bigger' or 'getting rid of wrinkles' but takes a considered and careful approach to bringing out the best in her patient's features. No one could tell I'd had any procedures done but just that I looked fresher and brighter. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my face!”

Some of the skin issues we see the most often include acne, acne scarring, pigmentation, rosacea, dull skin and uneven texture. We always tackle the underlying issues rather than simply alleviating symptoms.
Our approach to skincare considers its layers, first and foremost. Some skin treatments target the surface layers, while others target the middle and deepest layers. All of these are important and have their place; we do not treat one layer without addressing the others.
Dr Harpal Bains says: “The classic approach to skin is to treat it to counter oily, combination or dryness issues. And to simply pick a product that matched the skin type. Today I know that that is too simplistic and certainly doesn’t work as well the older you get.
“Think of your skin as a tent. The outer fabric of the tent corresponds with the surface layer of your skin, while the tent’s frame represents the middle and deep layers of the skin.
“Without a quality, sturdy frame, the fabric of the tent would sag and appear wrinkled – the same goes for your skin. I cannot stress how important it is to focus on the deeper layers that are not that visible to the eye. Looking after that layer today will reap benefits in years to come. I believe that that is often forgotten because the media keeps focussing on Botox and fillers. I think of it as the forgotten layers.”

Perhaps you’ve done the rounds of steroids, antibiotics and ‘miracle’ skin products? We utilise functional dermatology to tackle the underlying cause of any skin problems and take a longevity approach to aesthetics to help your skin continue to look good as you age.
This holistic approach addresses hormone imbalances, gut issues, and can often include IV vitamin therapy and nutrient supplementation with glutathione, plus other vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
