SmartXide carbon dioxide (CO2) fractional laser is a skin repair and rejuvenation treatment that tackles sun damage, age spots, fine wrinkles, deep wrinkles, large or fine pores, acne scars, scars & other blemishes, and poor general skin condition.

There is a specific SmartXide CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing treatment for the fine skin of the upper eyelid and the fine skin of the lower eyelid and beneath the eye. The laser fires multiple small beams onto the skin which burn out tiny areas.

By varying the distance between the beams and the depth that the laser penetrates, you can control the amount of skin rejuvenation. As the microbeams only target a proportion of the skin at any one time, this enables faster healing and less downtime.

You may experience a slight redness and swelling for a few days after you procedure and we recommend using a high factor sun screen afterwards to protect your skin.

SmartXide helps your skin regain its tone and texture using a CO2 laser system on an electronically pre-set network of points without removing the entire skin surface. SmartXide can be combined with other minimally invasive procedures to produce the optimal results.

SmartXide is a highly versatile skin rejuvenation procedure, suitable for all skin types, that can target fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, pigmentation and enlarged pores, as well as tighten the skin and improve overall texture.

How long does the SmartXide laser treatment take?

The SmartXide laser treatment takes about 20- to 30 minutes. You need to have topical anaesthetic cream applied about 40 minutes before and you will need a little rest after. So all-in-all you will be in clinic for about two hours.

How many sessions are necessary?

You may need anything from two to six SmartXide laser skin resurfacing sessions, depending upon the overall original condition of the skin, the damage or condition to be corrected and the way your skin responds. Moderate or light treatment settings will generate less downtime but require more sessions than more aggressive treatments.

How soon will I notice results from my SmartXide laser therapy?

Most patients notice an improvement in skin tone after the very first treatment. Skin marks may fade after just one treatment, but you may require more sessions to achieve the best results. SmartXide also stimulates collagen production so your results will continue to develop over the next few months.

The improvement in skin quality will be long-term but will gradually diminish due to the ageing process and other lifestyle factors.

How much does SmartXide laser treatment cost?

SmartXide costs £600 and £1,000 for each session. If you require many sessions, then we can quote a special fee for six sessions.

I have been living with scarring above my upper lip, as a result of electrolysis treatment 25 years ago, in the form of a deep vertical line and small indentations in the skin. I sought help from Wimpole Aesthetics, and from the moment that I entered the small, personal clinic I was totally put at ease and welcomed by the extremely professional and friendly team. I received a course of Mesotherapy and Dermapen treatment and am absolutely delighted with the results. I had almost given up on ever having smooth line-free skin above my upper lip again. I highly recommend letting Wimpole Aesthetics take care of you.

Sally, KentMesotherapy and Dermapen Treatment

Having lived in Australia for over 10 years, my skin had suffered mild sun-damage and had developed a lot of discolouration on my face in particular. Also, as I approached the age of 40, I noticed a lot of wrinkles appearing! I decided to have Microdermabrasion treatment and the improvements after just 3 treatments were extremely encouraging. I have booked a further 2 treatments in coming months and I am so excited about seeing further benefits to the look and texture of my skin.

I have nothing but praise for the team at the Wimpole Aesthetic Centre in London. I had been very nervous about having my Smart Lipo treatment last year, however, Dr Berkowitz was highly professional at all times and provided me with great advice and treatment. I was delighted with the results that were achieved during the procedure and it has left me feeling so much more confident about my body. I would certainly recommend the Wimpole Aesthetic Centre to anybody considering this procedure or a similar aesthetic treatment.

I had read about Thermage Skin Rejuvenation in a beauty magazine and decided to do some additional research on the internet. I found the website for Wimpole Aesthetics and contacted them discreetly via their online forms. Within a matter of minutes, I had a response from the receptionist at the clinic and she explained a little more about the procedure. I decided to book a private consultation to see Doctor Berkowitz and a few weeks later I had my skin tightening treatment. It was a great success and I’m so much happier with the general appearance and feel of my skin. The wrinkling around my eyes and on my neck is much improved and, as clichéd as it sounds, I feel years younger.

After years of worry about my “saddlebags”, I found Dr Berkowitz at Wimpole Aesthetics. He was extremely professional, but at the same time extremely friendly and answered all of my questions about the Vaser Lipo procedure. It has been 6 weeks since the procedure and I am so happy with how my body is looking. I also cannot forget to mention his wife Carol and nurses Jackie and Christina – they are brilliant!

Tina, LondonVaser Lipo fat reduction treatment

I read about the new Vaser Lipo treatment in a men’s magazine and was instantly interested. As Dr Berkowitz was one of the only specialists in the country providing the treatment, it was a natural progression to visit him for a consultation at the Wimpole Aesthetic Centre. I found his advice and knowledge first-class and his staff made me feel very at ease. As such, I went ahead with the treatment and, in the end, a combination of the Vaser Lipo and Smart Lipo techniques were used to treat me. There has been no looking back since and my dream of having a six-pack has finally come true!

Ricardo Portland, Dulwich, LondonVaser Lipo body contouring treatment

I recently had Vaser Lipo on several areas of my body… my stomach, arms and chin. I found the entire process painfree and I am thoroughly enjoying the remarkable improvements to my body shape.

Charlotte Cole, FarnboroughVaser Lipo body contouring treatment

I found that no matter how often I trained or how strictly I dieted, I could not shift the layer of fat around the bottom of my stomach – therefore leaving me with a bulge which I found most unattractive. Not keen on liposuction, I had spent a lot of time researching alternative methods of getting rid of my unwanted fat, and by chance, I stumbled across Vaser Lipo. I booked in for a free consultation with Dr Berkowitz at the Wimpole Aesthetic Centre in London and after a friendly and honest assessment, I went ahead with the treatment. I saw instant results, however, the real changes occurred in the 4 – 12 weeks following the procedure. A huge thanks to all of the staff at the clinic for enabling me to achieve the look and body that I have always wanted!
