This Halloween, Trudy opens her Book of Skin Sorcery to throw some light on some of the most potent aesthetic magic available at this time of year.
First up – how could we resist highlighting the extraordinary power of PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma)? It is, after all, often referred to as The Vampire Facial.
This treatment starts with a small sample of the client’s own blood – it isn’t as Halloween-gory as it sounds as the process is very similar to a routine blood sample.
The magic happens when a centrifuge is used to produce a concentration of platelets that are injected into targeted areas. This stimulates tissue growth and hair regeneration through the production of collagen and elastin.
When used for skin, this treatment improves the skin texture, reduces fine lines and wrinkles and promotes overall rejuvenation.
When used for hair regrowth, the PRP treatment stimulates dormant hair follicles, leaving to increase hair thickness and density.
The results from this science-based wizardry are captivating without bubble, toil or trouble.
If witchcraft by wand is something you’re after, then might we suggest our incredible new Hydrafacial treatments. The magic is in the wand which works as a vacuum to open pores for a thorough cleanse, extracting impurities as it goes, before delivering a deep penetration of active ingredients designed to address specific client concerns.
Spellbinding results not only include instantly visible radiance and the brightening of dull skin, but it can also deliver on diminishing fine lines, wrinkles, age spots and treating dryness, congested pores, sun damage. Our Platinum package also includes lymphatic drainage to reduce puffiness and give the appearance of lifting and contouring.
The results provide an almost ethereal glow and rejuvenation – as if by magic. Absolutely no incantations while waving burning foliage around is necessary.
Also, brand new from November, is Cryopen Therapy.
Whilst healers and wise women of yore might concoct a dodgy poultice in the cauldron to deal with skin lesions, a wave of our magic wand can deal with these in no time.
The devil, as always, is in the details. In a nutshell, this latest in cryotherapy treatment utilises a pen (or wand if we continue our Halloween theme), which delivers a precise jet of extremely cold nitrous oxide which freezes and destroys abnormal tissue. And because this can be controlled with such accuracy, the surrounding tissue is not affective.
Perfect to make skin lesions, verrucae, milia, skin tags, age spots, cherry angiomas, warts and all simply disappear – and not even in a puff of smoke!
Sorcery indeed – and no eye of newts or toes of frogs required.

Finally, a spellbinding facial drawing its effectiveness from the most potent of potions. “Obagi!” may sound like a word a magician might cry as he pulls a rabbit from a hat, but it is a whole facial system that gives an enchanting glow up with added collagen-boosting serums to provide the ultimate in rehydration and rejuvenation.
A ritual of cleansing, toning, exfoliation, massage and hydration, it’ll will leave your skin smoother and more radiant.
Perfect for those post-Halloween / pre-Christmas parties that are appearing as if by magic in your diary.
So, there we have it. Our Halloween pick of just some of the skin sorcery on offer at Trudy Mills Aesthetics.
No trick, just treatment. You don’t have to look scary this Halloween.
