Lisa Snowdon has revealed the £2,000 treatment she undergoes annually to cope with the “toll” menopause has taken on her skin.

The TV presenter and Celebrity MasterChef winner, 51, who used to date George Clooney, visits Dr Galyna Selezneva at the Dr Rita Rakus Clinic in Knightsbridge once a year for a skin tightening treatment – Thermage FLX.

The needle-free process uses non-invasive radiofrequency that heats the skin to promote collagen production, making the skin tighter, softer and smoother.

Despite being ‘super committed’ to her skincare regime, the presenter, who has been undergoing the treatment for three years, required ‘extra support’ to get the skin on her face and neck ‘firmer’.

And Lisa found that the results improved over time. “Immediately, I noticed this incredible tightening in my jawline and cheeks, and also a lift in my upper lip and eyebrows; the results only improved over the next six months,” she said.

The non-invasive process uses a laser-emitting wire to tighten the skin, promising collagen regeneration with 95 percent success, something rare in skin tightening, according to the clinic.

Lisa made the decision to undergo the Thermage FLX procedure to help her embrace her menopausal skin.

Lisa said: ‘Aging and going through menopause takes its toll on your skin. I’ve been very committed to my skincare routine for years, but I knew I was ready for some extra support to continue feeling my best.

“Searching for an alternative in the sea of ​​devices that offer a collagen boost was difficult and, to say the least, a little confusing.”

He continued: ‘The treatment uses radiofrequency to heat the skin to 45 degrees, the specific temperature needed to stimulate the production of new collagen.

‘It’s not painful, just some areas around my jaw were a little more sensitive, but the device vibrates and cools the skin at the same time, meaning after my treatment I can put on my makeup and get on with my day.

‘Immediately, I noticed this incredible tightening in my jawline and cheeks, and also a lift in my upper lip and eyebrows; The results only improved over the next six months.

‘I have since returned for a top-up, which was recommended once a year. I’m also scheduled to try it on my legs and also my butt.’

‘Unlike other treatments and devices, Thermage FLX has numerous rigorous clinical trials with incredibly high results, so I felt there was no need to take risks with more invasive procedures.

‘If that wasn’t enough to convince me, I spoke at length to Dr. Galyna, who is absolutely a specialist in this field; Her insight and calmness showed me that achieving the natural-looking results she desired was perfect.

“I wanted to look like myself and the goal was never to look younger, but better and firmer.”

Thermage FLX works at 45 degrees, the temperature needed to change structures within skin tissue and trigger collagen production, according to the clinic.

On the topic, Dr Galyna Selezneva said: ‘There are many treatments available now that suggest that heating the tissue to a higher temperature or causing more trauma to the skin will be beneficial.

“However, I like to explain this to patients with a simple analogy in which the layers of the skin are like an egg: if you boil an egg in a pan at the right temperature, its composition will change and it will become firm.” , hard-boiled egg.

Lisa, who also took first place on Celebrity Masterchef 2022, has also signed up to try the treatment on her legs.

‘However, if you continue to heat that temperature to 30 degrees higher, the structure of the egg will continue to change and it will still be a boiled egg; there will simply have to have been a lot more trauma, pain and downtime to go there.’

He explained how the process works: ‘A radiofrequency treatment like Thermage FLX goes through all the layers of the skin.

‘(This means) we can treat much more than just the epidermis (the surface of the skin), but also the deeper layers of tissue and even the subcutaneous fat beneath the skin itself.

‘Results with Thermage FLX include a more defined jawline and chin contour, softer, smoother skin with less sagging, smoothed wrinkles and fine lines around the mouth, eyes, forehead and knees, and tighter skin around of the neck, arms and buttocks.

“Depending on the size, location and condition of the area to be treated, we only need one treatment instead of a cycle of six sessions, as is the case with many other radiofrequency treatments.”
