Looking for an impressive father’s day gift? Imagine gifting your father with something that would change his life. Just like women, men can suffer from serious self-esteem issues due to unhappiness with their bodies; it can affect their day-to-day life, their confidence and their future.

If you’re looking for a way to build on your diet and exercise regime and get the muscular, defined abs you’ve always wanted then Vaser Hi Def could be a good option. VASER High Definition Liposelection (Hi Def) is an advanced liposculpture technique, suitable for both men and women, that uncovers hidden muscle definition. It’s a great technique if you want an athletic and trim looking abdomen. But Vaser Hi Def isn’t a short cut to amazing abdominals. You need to do some work and research before you embark on Vaser Hi Def. So how do you prepare for Vaser Hi Def?
Vaser Hi Def is a more complicated procedure than standard liposuction, liposculpture or Vaser Lipo so you need to find a doctor who is highly trained in the procedure. You need a face to face consultation where a doctor should assess your suitability for Vaser Hi Def, discuss side effects and probable outcomes. A reputable doctor will NOT recommend a procedure you don’t need. Read more... (478 words, 2 images, estimated 1:55 mins reading time)

The summer is fast approaching and you are probably working out in the gym, eating well and trying to hone your body to the muscular, athletic figure you want. Vaser Hi Def is one way to achieve the kind of body you’ve probably only ever dreamed of. Vaser Hi Def is a highly specialised liposelection technique that reveals hidden muscle definition on your abdomen, chest, upper arms, back or legs. It is specifically designed to create an athletic look, for both men and women and you don’t have to be super fit to benefit from this treatment.
If you decided on Vaser Hi Def to improve the definition of your abs, waistline, chest or arm then you’ll want to maintain the results you see immediately after the procedure and in the following few weeks. Read more... (492 words, 2 images, estimated 1:58 mins reading time)
- You will need recovery time; this will include someone being with you for at least the 48 hours following surgery (we can arrange a nurse to stay with you). This is very important as you’ll be wearing special compression garments that can be tricky to get on and off.

Summer is coming, and with it the indecision and self confidence issues that most of us women suffer from, especially if we’re mothers and ‘of a certain age’. Baring all on the beach? Wearing less and more natural makeup? Wearing bingo wing and celulite showing tops and skirts? Eek!

Young mums especially often have no time to themselves, which is why many of the cosmetic treatments at Riverbanks Clinic appeal to today’s yummy mummys.

The majority of men will be affected by hair loss or the hair of thinning at some point in their life, which for many men is their most concerning aesthetic problem. However, whereas previous solutions or treatments often only drew attention to the problem area, these days men suffering from male pattern baldness (MPB) can get receive effective treatment to restore one’s personal appearance.
In the recent news, we have seen Dancing on Ice’s pantomime judge, Jason Gardiner, report that he has underdone a hair transport, revealing his new head of hair live on the show. But whilst he may be one of the first TV stars to really boast about his new locks, he is by no mans the first male celebrity to undergo this type of treatment.
Other male celebrities which have had hair transplants include big Hollywood stars like Jamie Foxx and Sean Penn, and our very humble TV stars including chef Gordon Ramsey and actor James Nesbitt. With problems including both receding hairlines as well as general thinning due to ageing, these and many other rumoured males celebrities have opted to undergo a hair transport in the same way women may use Botox and other cosmetic treatments to keep looking young.

The Non-Surgical Approach to Hair Loss
Experts state that 50% of men have lost a significant amount of hair by the time they reach 50 so at Riverbanks Clinic we wanted to look at the Non-Surgical approach versus Hair Surgery. What anti baldness treatments work for both men and women?
Simple online searches will bring up a vast array of wonder hair drugs – from pills and lotions to laser combs – that claim to slow down hair loss, reverse it, prevent it even…so let’s look at some of these claims.
Experts who specialise in male hair loss actually still do not know the precise cause however three things need to coincide – genetics, your age and the presence of DHT (a form of the male sex hormone testosterone).
It can be difficult to assess the effectiveness of hair loss medications as people who are losing their hair are vulnerable to companies looking to make money and we all know that manufacturers are in business to make money! We all worry about losing our hair as it makes us feel less physically attractive and strikes a chord within us as human beings. Read more... (985 words, 2 images, estimated 3:56 mins reading time)

After having children, one of any woman’s biggest hang-ups is the stomach which is often left loose and impossible to tone up. Of course a good healthy diet and exercise can help to improve the body, but sometimes, just like our kids, they can just be stubborn! Which is where Vaser Lipo and Vaser Hi Def can help.
Before and After Vaser Lipo
Vaser Hi Def, which is available at Riverbanks Clinic, is an effective treatment which is designed to sculpt and define the body, helping to leave your stomach trimmer. A safe procedure for both men and women, Vaser Hi Def only targets specific areas, and removes fat in places that will leave your body looking defined and healthier.
We know that although women aspire to have a lean stomach, this does not mean having a six-pack, which is why Vaser Hi Def is ideal. Used to just define the muscles, Vaser Hi Def can give women a toned stomach, and even give them a more defined hour-glass shape. Read more... (400 words, 3 images, estimated 1:36 mins reading time)

We are all aware that women come in all manner of shapes and sizes, which means that although most women are not completely satisfied with their body, they can at least learn to love the body they’ve been given. In fact, for many women, when it comes to looking healthier or younger, it’s the condition of their skin they try to improve, and not their overall body shape or size.
So this Mother’s Day, give your mum something they will really love you for; a course of rejuvenating skincare treatments.
At Riverbanks Clinic, we offer a wide range of effective skincare treatments to tackle various problematic skin conditions, leaving yummy mummy looking skin. For many of us, our mums would have grown up in an age when the exact damaging effects of the sun were unknown, leaving many women with sun-damaged skin. A course of IPL (intense pulsed light) can dramatically improve the appearance of sun-damaged skin using medical strength IPL light which targets the dark patches of sun-damaged skin, causing them to absorb the light, flake, and fall off, reducing the patchy pigmentation of the skin.

How to get rid of jowls without surgery
The ‘Nefertiti lift’ is an injectable treatment for improving the definition along the jawline, avoiding the need for surgery. In suitable patients, botulinum toxin type A is injected along the jawline to reduce the size of overgrown chewing (masseter) muscles and relax the downward pulling platysmal muscle found in the neck. As a result the skin which rests along the jawline is released from being pulled downwards and so lifts, giving quite impressive results as early as two weeks after injections.
For more information, please call Riverbanks Clinic on 0800 0 325415.

Do your arms pass the ‘hi there’ test?
When you see someone you haven’t seen for ages on the other side of the room, do you think before you reach up and wave at them? If you’re wearing a sleeveless top, do you keep your arms well down to hide that annoying ‘bingo-wings’ effect where your underarms are nowhere near as toned and taut as you’d like?
If you don’t like the idea of traditional liposuction, Vaser Lipo is a much better solution – no hospital, no general anaesthetic and tiny scars that are virtually invisible. The procedure will take about an hour at most, uses local anaesthetic and allows you to carry on with your normal everyday life right away.
You can go right back to work the very next day, so nobody need know a thing about it, they’ll just notice your confidence boost and you’ll get lots of great compliments about how good you look (although they won’t be able to put their finger on what has changed)!
