All those non-surgical cosmetic procedures that you have heard of – such as Botox, dermal fillers, laser treatment and skin peels – are commonly known as tweakments.
To find a tweakment, decide which area of your face is bothering you. Hover over that area on the face here, select it, and you will see a list of tweakments that could be used in this area. Click on one to explore further.
If your skin is feeling dry and lacklustre, how can it be coaxed into healthy, glowing, red-carpet-ready condition in the space of an hour?
The answer? An Intraceuticals facial, which uses a spray of pressurised oxygen to drive a series of hydrating serums deep into the skin, supporting skin health and enhance its glow.

These products will all work hard to improve your skin. Choose the appropriate ones for your skincare concerns, and use them like medicine. By that, I mean use them as it tells you on the directions that come with the product, and be patient. Skincare can help to make great improvements in your complexion, but you do need to give it time. This is my shortlist, but I’m going to keep adding to it.

Do skincare supplements work? Yes, absolutely – as long as you pick the right ones. Here are three of my favourite supplements which I know are effective – from clinical studies as well as from my own experience. Two of them are based on hydrolysed collagen – that’s collagen that has been broken up into fractions recognised by the body as useful, and which stimulate the body’s own collagen production too. The other is a high-strength vitamin C supplement that is proven to boost collagen levels, as well as improving skin hydration and elasticity. Take your pick.

If your skin is feeling dry and lacklustre, can it be coaxed into healthy, glowing, red-carpet-ready condition in the space of an hour?
The answer is - yes, with an Intraceuticals facial, which uses a spray of pressurised oxygen to drive a series of hydrating serums deep into the skin, to support skin health and and enhance its glow. I have tried this a number of times and am always impressed by the way it sculpts and lifts the contours of my face, as well as the super-deep hydration that it delivers.
There was a time when tweakments were the preserve of celebrities - though you would be hard pressed to find one who would admit to it. Nowadays, the conversation has moved on and tweakments – aka non-surgical cosmetic procedures like Botox, fillers and skin peels – are becoming more and more mainstream. When I say mainstream, I mean to the extent that you can now get Botox in Superdrug in the UK, and in the States, 'Botox bars' such as Plump and Ject are springing up, which make the whole experience of injectables feel more casual and less clinical. Now, more than ever, it's time to open up the discussion surrounding tweakments.
Is there a way to stop the face from sagging which is totally non-invasive yet gives an impressive result?
For this week’s Tweak of the Week, I take a closer look at CACI, the well-known and much-loved treatment that tones facial muscles with electrical pulses.
