My Woodford Medical Experience

22/5/14 Joanne has been a client of Dr Allan and Dr Patterson’s since 2003 and has trusted them with several different procedures for her Rosacea and general skincare. Here she tells us why she chose Woodford Medical in the first place and why years on she remains a regular, loyal patient.

I always suffered very badly with Rosacea and found it incredibly debilitating. I worried constantly about flushing and found as I approached the Menopause it was just getting worse! Having worked with a Dermatologist, I had tried several different medications in the past including antibiotics but to no avail.

I researched IPL Photorejuvenation as a treatment for facial flushing and red veins and came across Woodford Medical. After an initial consultation I had my first procedure and was astounded by the results!

The difference was almost immediate! Straight away I could see a reduction in the redness and as I continued treatment it continued to reduce my flushing until it disappeared altogether. I no longer worry about drinking alcoholic drinks, or being in a hot room, and can now sit in the sun with an SPF on my skin and see no sign of any returning red veins.

I started receiving compliments on my skin wherever I went and have continued to ever since. I decided that I would like to try Botox for the wrinkles on my forehead, however I wanted to remain natural looking. It honestly took ten years off me! I couldn’t believe how much fresher and younger I looked, it was fantastic!

Both Dr Patterson and Dr Allan perform the Botox in a way that looks completely natural – I have seen so many people with frozen, shiny faces but at Woodford Medical you never leave looking unnatural, which I feel is so important. I have also had Dermal Fillers which are brilliant, they again make you look fresher and more youthful without any evidence of having work done.

Dr Allan and Dr Patterson have instilled in me how important it is to use the right skincare products at home, products that are proven to work and will look after my skin. I use the Epionce products because they tick all of these boxes – my favourite is the Epionce Renewal Facial Lotion, it is perfect for when your skin needs some TLC.

I would recommend Woodford Medical to anyone and do recommend them to my friends and family on a regular basis.
