Revitalise your skin with advanced skin treatments
Skin concerns can develop gradually over time, influenced by ageing, environmental exposure, and changes in skin structure. At VL Aesthetics in Carlisle, a range of advanced skin treatments are available to support improved skin clarity, texture, and overall skin health.
Treatments can address concerns such as wrinkles and fine lines, acne, pigmentation, rosacea, and uneven skin tone. Options may include professional skin treatments, medical facials, chemical peels, and non-surgical facial rejuvenation, depending on your individual needs.
Your consultation is carried out by an experienced practitioner who will assess your skin and recommend the most appropriate treatment approach. Each plan is tailored to your skin condition and aesthetic goals to support balanced, natural-looking results.
As a doctor-led, CQC-regulated clinic, VL Aesthetics prioritises patient safety and clinical care. All treatments take place within a fully regulated medical setting designed around comfort and privacy. Book a consultation today to discuss the most suitable options for your concerns.
Acne can be mild (occasional pimples), moderate (inflammatory papules), or severe (nodules and cysts). It is caused by a combination of the bacteria on your skin, the fatty acids in your oil glands, and a sensitivity to androgenic hormones. We can reduce your acne with a new approach from pharmacologists…
Acne can leave behind three major types of scar tissue: ‘Ice Pick’ – deep but small indentations; ‘Boxcar’ – scars with sharp angles and edges; ‘Rolling’ – wide and shallow scars caused by damage under the surface of your skin. VL Aesthetics can clear your acne scars with the most advanced Micro Needling procedure…
Age spots (also called liver spots and solar lentigines) are small dark areas on your skin. They vary in size and are very common in adults older than 50. Younger people can get them too, especially if they spend a lot of time in the sun. At VL Aesthetics, we can make age spots less visible with the latest technology…
Cherry angiomas, also known as Campbell de Morgan spots or senile angiomas, are mole-like skin growths that can develop on almost any part of your body.

Dark circles are shadows or discolouration that appear beneath the eyes, making you look tired or older. They can develop due to ageing, genetics, lifestyle factors, or reduced skin thickness in the under-eye area. At VL Aesthetics, we can improve the appearance of dark circles with non-surgical skin treatments…
When you’re under 20 years of age, your skin cells regenerate every 28 days. As we age however, this process slows down and the dead cells start to pile up, diffusing the light and making your skin look dull. Using the most advanced cosmeceutical skin care, we’ll smooth, brighten, and purify your skin…
Shaving, waxing, plucking, and tweezing take up a lot of time and can leave your skin looking red and irritated. With Cynosure® Laser Hair Removal, you can remove hair on any part of your body, but the results are long-term, so you can enjoy perfect smooth skin every day. Areas include: Legs, underarms, bikini…

Using the leading non-surgical technology, we can improve the appearance of the affected areas…

Skin tags (acrochorda) are small, soft, flesh-coloured growths on your skin. They are made from loose collagen fibres and blood vessels, and often occur through skin-on-skin rubbing. Although usually quite harmless, many people feel self-conscious about them. At VL Aesthetics, we can quickly remove your skin tags…
Stretch marks (or stria) are narrow streaks or lines that develop on the skin. They occur when the skin is suddenly stretched, such as during pregnancy, rapid weight gain, or growth spurts in puberty. At VL Aesthetics, we use the most advanced non-surgical technology to treat the appearance of stretch marks…
Thread veins – also known as spider veins – are small blood vessels in the most superficial layer of the skin which have become dilated and visible. They can be red, purple, or blue, and most often appear on the legs or face. We can improve the appearance of thread veins with a medically certified laser treatment…
Warts are small lumps that often develop on the surface of hands and feet (verrucas). They are caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) which creates an excess amount of keratin in the epidermis. We can remove warts and verrucas with the latest Cryotherapy treatment – procedures typically last 5-25 seconds…
