Beauty Bites - The Priori Peel


We recently shared a review of our Priori Skincare range and highlighted how great the products are. Here is a Beauty Bites video from Holly talking about The Priori Peel. It's a Chemical Peel that will leave your skin glowing.

Glycolic acid is an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA), which helps to exfoliate dead skin cells and rehydrate the skin by increasing its capacity to hold water. Collagen is also stimulated to firm and tone the skin.

Chemical peels containing glycolic acid or lactic acid improve and smooth the texture of the facial skin by removing its damaged outer layers and may help reduce acne scarring. The procedure can take up to 30 minutes or longer, depending on the type of peel that you are having.

Take a look at the video and get in touch if you have any questions.



If you are looking to improve the appearance of your skin then the Priori Peel is worth considering as the results are amazing. If you have any questions or queries then we would love to hear form you. Call us on to book a consultation on 01224 643 999.

The popularity of aesthetic procedures that aim to turn back the clock is sky rocketing.  Brown spots, broken capillaries and facial wrinkles can now be treated using a variety of procedures that help to contribute to a more youthful appearance.

All of our skin rejuvenating treatments are very effective, however a treatment may work more effectively than another depending on each individual's skin.  We understand that the choice of treatment can be tricky as it is not a one treatment suits all scenario.

This is why Kirkwood Fyfe are offering a "taster" of treatments for skin rejuvenation.  The taster of treatments include:
Whichever treatments you feel have worked best for you, would be the treatments you would continue with (normally 6 sessions).  So for example you may go on to have a further 6 treatments of combined Radio Frequency and Pixel or may want to continue only with 6 further treatments of IPL.

This is the perfect way of us creating a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.  You can have input into the plan by deciding which of the treatments you feel are the most effective.  It really is a tailor made plan to achieve more youthful looking skin.

We would love to hear from you if you would like to take advantage of this offer or if you would like more information. Contact us on 01224 643 999 or email us on info@kirkwoodfyfe.com.

Beauty Bites - How achieve better looking skin


Holly Foubister, aesthetic therapist at Kirkwood Fyfe shares another Beauty Bites video. Here is how to achieve better looking skin.

You have naturally 80-90% excess skin all over your body, which is effectively dead. If you do not exfoliate the dead skin cells, you will clog your pores. However, this problem is easily solved by simply exfoliating twice a week.

There are two ways in which you can exfoliate; manually or chemically. The Manual method can be done using a body brush, or your hands. Alternatively the chemical approach would involve using our range of specialised products that help achieve great results. 

Top tip: make sure you don't rub until you are raw, not the look we would imagine you would be going for.


If you have any questions regarding any of the tips or products mentioned above, please "Like" our Facebook page and follow us on Twitter, simply post a message to us, and a member of our team will get back to you.

Beauty Bites - How to help prevent fine lines and wrinkles


Holly Foubister, aesthetic therapist at Kirkwood Fyfe giving you a Beauty Bite on how to help prevent fine lines and wrinkles around your eyes.

It doesn't matter what age you are, there are always the pressures to maintain younger looking skin. Many of our patients are conscious of getting wrinkles around their eyes or on the general facial area. In this Beauty Bite, Holly shares tips on how to prevent this. People often make the mistake of using facial moisturisers around the eye area, however the molecules are actually too large to be absorbed around this delicate area.

Using the correct eye gel, or cream for the bone area around your eyes, you can help prevent fine lines or wrinkles. 


If you have any questions regarding any of the tips or products mentioned above, please "Like" our Facebook page and follow us on Twitter, simply post a message to us, and a member of our team will get back to you.

What happens during laser eye surgery...

Laser Eye Surgery has become an ever increasingly popular procedure and through advances in technology, we are proud to offer our patients Z-Lasik, which operates without the use of a blade. 

We have seen an increase in our patients becoming fed up with the hassle of not being able to see correctly without the aid of glasses or contact lenses and over the past decade Laser Eye surgery has become an effective and pain free solution to correct people's vision.

In the video below we get an insight into what is involved in a Pre-Operative Consultation. Here Karen also has questions answered by our Optometrist Bobby Fyfe.




At Kirkwood Fyfe we use Z-Lasik which is the most advanced innovation in bladeless surgery. This procedure uses a high-frequency laser and there is no blade involved to create a precise, pain free surgery. Keep an eye out for our next blog post, which will include a video of Karen's surgery to show you what is involved in the full process. 

We would love to hear from you if you would like to know more about Laser Eye surgery or about any other procedures that Kirkwood Fyfe provide. Contact us on 01224 643 999 or email us on info@kirkwoodfyfe.com

How to achieve younger, fresher skin: exclusive to Kirkwood Fyfe

We have found that there is an ever increasing amount of people looking to achieve younger looking skin. At Kirkwood Fyfe we offer a range of cosmetic treatments that are proven to give better results than any topical creams and lotions that can be found on the high street. All of our surgical procedures are performed by registered surgeons. At Kirkwood Fyfe we are dedicated to providing the highest standards of care we can for all our patients.



Exclusive to Kirkwood Fyfe
Here we highlight a combined treatment of Pixel Treatment and Radio Frequency. This unique procedure is exclusive to Kirkwood Fyfe and aims to reduce fine lines which tightens the skin to give a fresher, more youthful appearance. The combination of treatments is also used to treat smokers lines and deep wrinkles and aids fat reduction. There has been no other product on the market until now that really helps to treat deep set wrinkles other than fillers. The treatment is non evasive and we are seeing really positive results with our patients.

Take a look at the demonstration video below to see the treatment being performed by Anusha, one of our Plastic Surgeons. For more information on the manufacturer of the product used, visit their website: www.abclasers.co.uk


What do you think?
What are your thoughts on the procedure shown in the video? Would you consider getting the treatment to help you achieve younger, fresher skin? Have you ever considered getting treatment to reduce wrinkles? Are you concerned about the effects that smoking has on your skin? Or are you fed up buying anti-aging creams and lotions that just don't work? We would love to hear your comments and feedback via our Facebook page.

Do you have a tattoo that you regret?

Tattooing has grown very popular over the last 10 years. Although this is an ever increasing trend not everyone who has a tattoo remains happy with it forever and there are many people who would like to have theirs removed. At Kirkwood Fyfe we offer our patients the chance to have their tattoos removed in the best possible way. Laser surgery is considered one of the best methods for removing the otherwise permanent designs.


At Kirkwood Fyfe we provide the Q-Switched Nd:YAG form of laser surgery, which is the most frequently used laser today for the removal of unwanted tattoos. Pulses of light from the laser are directed onto the tattoo, breaking up the tattoo pigment. Once this has been done the body's macrophages remove the treated pigment areas. More than one treatment, and in some cases up to 12 treatments are necessary to remove all of the tattoo.

Tattoos are created by injecting coloured pigment into small deep holes made in the skin. However, the 1064-nm light emitted by the Q-swithced Nd:YAG laser achieves the best results to remove the markings on dark inks namely black (which accounts for more than half of all tattoos), blue and green.

Do you have tattoo that you regret? Are you getting married and worried about showing off a tattoo on your big day? If you have any questions or queries please visit our Facebook page or you can email us on info@kirkwoodfyfe.com. We will be more than happy to answer any of your questions and give you advice on tattoo removal.

How to relieve the symptoms of Dry Eye Syndrome

At Kirkwood Fyfe we find a number of our patients suffer from Dry Eye Syndrome. Although this is a common condition, it can result in dry or sore eyes and/or blurred vision. The condition tends to affect people above 60, and it is more common in women than men. Around one in 13 people who are in their fifties experience dry eye syndrome, and the condition becomes more common with age.

A great, natural tip for relieving the symptoms of Dry eye syndrome is to eat foods that are high in omega 3. One type of food that will help to alleviate the dryness is oily fish, including salmon, trout, mackerel, herring and sardines. The naturally high oil content from the fish is a great source of omega 3 and helps to reduce the dryness in eyes. Although at Kirkwood Fyfe we are not master chef's, we do like to cook and also like to provide our online community with interesting tips and blog topics. So if you suffer from dry eyes, why not try one of Kirkwood Fyfe's favourite, tried and tested mackerel recipes. It's really easy and you will be rid of the dryness in no time!

Mackerel with Lime & Coriander (serves 4)
Ingredients:
  • 4 small mackerel, trout or sardines
  • 1/4 tsp ground coriander
  • 1/4 ground cumin
  • 4 sprigs of fresh coriander
  • 3 tbsp chopped, fresh coriander
  • 1 red chilli, deseeded and chopped
  • grated rind and juice of 1 lime 
  • 2 tbsp sunflower oil
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 lime, sliced, to garnish
  • salad leaves, to serve
1.Clean and gut the mackerel, removing the heads if preferred. Place on a chopping board.
2. Sprinkle the fish with the ground spices and salt and pepper to taste. Place a sprig of coriander inside the cavity of each fish
3. Mix together the chopped coriander, chilli, lime rind and juice and the oil in a small bowl. Brush the mixture leberally over the fish.
4. Grill or barbecue the fish for 3-4 mins each side. Brush frequently with the remaining basting mixture.
5. Garnish with lime slices and serve with salad leaves

We hope you enjoy the recipe and would love to hear your feedback on the dish or any suggestions of other oily fish recipes.  We regularly post news, tips and advice on our twitter and facebook page so please join us to keep up to date on all the latest news from Kirkwood Fyfe.

Kirkwood Fyfe's TOP BEAUTY TIPS...


At Kirkwood Fyfe we believe that great looks begins with beautiful skin and the secret to amazing looking skin is a solid skincare regime. We believe that everyone can achieve healthy, beautiful skin with the right products and the right knowledge. So we wanted to share some of our beauty secrets with you to help your skin look fresh and healthy.


  • Drink lots of water on a daily basis as the first 80% of what you drink directly helps to maintain healthy organs so drinking more will bring a noticeable result to the skin.
  • Exfoliate 2-3 times per week as you have 80-90% excess dead skin, which can cause cloged pores.
  • If you have tanned over the summer mix bronzer with your normal foundation to make the colour slightly darker rather than buying a new foundation.
  • Wash make-up brushes with soap and warm water and leave to dry naturally at least once per month as bacteria can build up and cause spots.
  • Always wear at least SPF 15 in all weather conditions as it gives some environmental protection.
  • Choose a moisturiser that contains water grabbing properties that plump up the skin, Kirkwood Fyfe recommends using something from our Priori skincare range.
Not only do we have a team of beauty experts based in house at Kirkwood Fyfe we also offer various  cosmetic surgery treatments that are becoming increasingly popular. Each procedure is carried out by one of  our team of top cosmetic surgeons. Please visit our website for more information or contact us directly on 01224 643 999 or you can email us on info@kirkwoodfyfe.com

We regularly post news, tips and advice on our twitter and facebook page so please join us to keep up to date on all the latest beauty trends.
