Celebrity facialist Keren Bertov is also a fan and incorporates Sofwave into her Super Advanced Total Rejuvenation Facial as “the results are a natural-looking facelift, enhanced jawline, and firm neck and chin that will last for up to 12 months after one treatment, with no downtime.”

The Botox mist facial
Botox is typically injected into the muscles to freeze them and soften a persistent frown line on the skin’s surface. However, aesthetic doctor Dr Antoni Calmon has created a facial where micro doses of botulinum toxin, mixed with a liquid vitamin, are injected very superficially into the skin for more natural-looking results. “With this innovative technique even the smallest wrinkles are softened without freezing the face,” he says.
Expect tiny bubbles to appear on the skin for 20 minutes as the concoction sinks in. Results, which include increased collagen production and a reduction in sebum for a less shiny T-zone, are noticeable within a few days and last for four months.

Hybrid breast augmentation
According to Dr Hamza, breast augmentation remains the number one cosmetic body procedure in the UK. But, it’s “come a long way since its unsubtle early days and fat transfer has quickly become the of choice among those in the know,” he says. “One of the biggest trends this year is hybrid breast augmentation — a combination of implants and fat transfer. This technique allows for more natural-looking results, improved cleavage, and better breast remodelling overall,” he explains.

Exion
Don’t fancy injectables? Exion is being dubbed the needle-free alternative to Botox, filler and even injectable skincare like Profhilo.
Developed by the makers of EmFace (a face-firming treatment that went viral last year), “Exion combines radiofrequency with mechanical ultrasound for the very first time,” says aesthetic doctor Dr Sherina Balaratnam. So you get the benefit of skin-tightening via heat, plus a boost in blood flow and collagen production.
“Another impressive result is that this treatment boosts the body’s own hyaluronic acid production by over 200% using no needles, which has never been done before,” Dr Balaratnam adds.
As for how the treatment looks in clinic, a small pad will be fixed to your back, which essentially grounds the electric current that will travel through your body as the wand is applied to your face. You may experience some redness afterwards and there is also the option of a microneedling attachment, which can be used together with the radiofrequency and ultrasound. But be aware that this will involve one or two days recovery time, adds Dr Balaratnam.
From £250 (the microneedling attachment costs an additional £250), s-thetics.com.
Light stacking
While not cheap, laser treatments can achieve skin goals ranging from boosting collagen production to treating pigmentation and tightening a slack jawline. According to Dr Maryam Zamani, oculoplastic surgeon and aesthetic doctor, 2025’s ultimate non-surgical hack will be to layer these treatments for turbo-charged results.
