Pigmentation

We have the latest picosecond laser, called PicoStar, which banishes abnormal pigmentation, sun damage, uneven skin tone as well as acne scarring and overall skin quality — with minimal downtime. Using ultra-short pulses of laser energy, PicoStar targets unwanted pigment and stimulates skin renewal without the need for aggressive resurfacing. Suitable for a wide range of skin types, it helps restore clarity, brightness and confidence while keeping results natural. PicoStar refreshes your skin from within, helping you look healthier, clearer and more radiant without looking ‘done’.

This procedure has been life changing for me, and I feel amazing. Ravi and his team are fantastic and I received a first class service. I was looked after every step of the way. I am so delighted with the results and it’s taken years of my age.

I am almost at my final session of Secret RF (3 of 4). I can honestly say that the team have been brilliant. My acne scars have improved enormously. There is a difference on my face, neck and décolletage generally and people have noticed that I am looking different but no one can figure out why.

Riverbanks delivers exceptional results and the staff are very friendly and professional. Having suffered with acne rosacea for the last few years, I am delighted with the results of VBEAM laser treatment, as most of the redness has been reduced or disappeared.

I really must tell you how impressed I am with the coolsculpting treatment. It has made such a huge difference to my tummy - my clothes fit better, I feel more comfortable. The second treatment was even better than the first. Thank you so much.

I had CO2RE laser around my eyes and wish I had had it done sooner. The skin around my eyes has lost almost all its crepiness and fine lines. The overall effect is to make my face appear much fresher and I feel much more confident in how I look. It's been amazing.
