Our facial polish treatment is exclusive to The Saleh Aesthetic Clinic treatment which can only be performed by Dr Saleh.

This facial treatment involves the application of a solution to facial skin followed by manual exfoliation/dermabrasion.  The benefits of these complementing procedures performed together is better than when either treatment is performed separately.

Normally the skin has a barrier, but once that barrier is penetrated the solution is absorbed increasing collagen density and promoting facial rejuvenation.

Although this is a medical treatment there is little or no down time associated with it, so you can continue working and socialising as you would normally.

Your skin will look fresh and healthy with an improvement in the appearance of lines and facial wrinkles, scars, freckles and smoothness.

The facial treatment is performed at our Cheadle clinic by Dr Saleh.  After the treatment you will need to take part in the aftercare at home in order to obtain the maximum benefit.  This will involve you rubbing cream into your face for a few minutes each day for a week.  The benefit of your involvement is to promote new collagen growth by removing the top layer of dry skin by exfoliation.

Immediately after your facial polish treatment has been performed your skin will look normal. 

As your skin will feel dry and tight, regular water soaks and moisturiser will be beneficial.  Your normal makeup can be applied during the first few days.

After two to three days the skin will begin to flake.  Start using the cream provided which should be applied up to four times a day, rub vigorously but do not make the skin sore.

Carry on with this regime until all flaky skin has been removed – this will take approximately seven days. If you are going in the sun, protection must be worn in order to prevent the new skin from burning.

Dr Saleh has been developing and improving this technique since 1991.
He is offering to restore the plumpness of youth to patients who are less than happy with their sagging jawlines and increasingly drawn faces.  Contrary to other methods which use commercial cosmetic fillers, Dr Roy Saleh, has pioneered the facial fat transfer, a procedure which uses fat taken from such naturally cushioned areas as the buttocks or stomach, to lift and tighten hollow areas of the face

As we get older, we no longer fill out our faces.  Our skin becomes thinner and less tight from our late 30s onwards.  The face shrinks too and the skin becomes loose.

For the effect of a face lift without surgery, a bulk filler is needed.  While conventional dermal fillers use one or two syringes, the full face would need around a teacup full.  When injected into specific areas in the face, the body’s own fat creates a younger and tighter appearance.  There is no need for a general anaesthetic; a local one is sufficient.

This method of facial skin rejuvenation is a natural alternative to a surgical face lift.  The fat in your body is already natural, and possibly the only substance to which you won’t have an adverse reaction in such large quantities. 

Following a detailed consultation with the patient, the first appointment involves removing fat from the tummy, thighs or hips, under local anaesthetic, which takes around two hours.  Perhaps surprisingly, this part of the procedure is not painful, and is done slowly and gently.  The fat is then stored deep frozen.  More fat than necessary is removed, so it can be used for repeat treatments.

 The next part of the treatment may be performed at a later date.  The process takes around two hours and is also done under local anaesthetic.  Small amounts of fat are then injected into specific areas of the face.

Unlike other practitioners who inject fat into the cheeks, Dr Saleh injects the fat from the eyes down to the jawline.  Natural fat does not just act as padding but pulls the skin tight too.
 
After the procedure performed at his Cheadle clinic, there is a seven day recovery period, when some bruising and swelling can be expected. 

After this time the patients are aware of their youthful rejuvenated looking face.

Dr Saleh has been providing thread vein treatment by sclerotherapy since 1989.

Thread veins lie superficially under the membrane layer of the skin, usually on the legs and face. If left untreated the condition can become increasingly widespread and unsightly.

Non-surgical treatment for thread vein removal is carried out comfortably and consists of a series of small injections into and around the offending veins. This highly effective method of thread veins treatment is called Sclerotherapy and the sclerosant liquids used are sclerovein and scleremo. These are both very gentle liquids and can be injected with little or no pain. 



As with many treatments a consultation is necessary to assess the number of thread vein treatments required, which is usually around two or three. These are usually performed monthly.  An annual treatment is required to maintain the effect.

In most cases thread vein treatment takes around 30 minutes and should be hardly uncomfortable and produce a good cosmetic appearance afterwards. As recouperation time is not necessary, it is possible to carry on with normal activity immediately.

Dr Saleh has been treating patients with facial anti wrinkle treatment injections for over ten years, and is a validator for Allergan. 

When performing this treatment, Dr Saleh considers a natural look to be most important.

The anti wrinkle treatment is a simple non-surgical procedure that smoothes the lines and wrinkles between your brows and around the eyes that develop over time. 

One ten minute wrinkle treatment, a few tiny injections, relaxes the muscles that cause those lines to form an keeps them relaxed up to four months. 

Unlike surgery, this anti wrinkle injection treatment is fast, simple and minimally invasive with no down time or recovery. 

Most people return directly to work or normal activity following treatment.  Within days, patients report looking more natural and relaxed. 

All facial wrinkle treatments are individually considered, and a thorough consultation is necessary.

Dr Saleh has many years of experience in the use of chemical face peel and has been performing chemical peels since 1991. 

Chemical peel treatment uses mild acid solutions to exfoliate the damaged surface of the skin. The chemical peels performed at his Cheadle clinic include, gylcolic acid, salicylic acid, trichloracetic acid, Obagi blue peel and phenol peel.

Chemical peels work by resurfacing and then stimulating new collagen production. Collagen is the substance responsible for providing elastisity. This helps the skin to look and act healthier.

Some peels that are used will require a recovery time. This will be discussed fully with you at consultation.

Chemical peel treatment reduces hyperpigmentation and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and improves skin firmness.

Microdermabrasion is also available at the clinic.
