Skin Tightening Consultation

Skin naturally loses elasticity over time due to ageing, sun exposure, or lifestyle factors. While this is a normal process, some people wish to understand their options for maintaining skin tone and health.

At Asquith Doctors, experienced general practitioners provide medical assessment, education, and referrals to ensure any treatment pathway is safe, suitable, and aligned with recognised clinical guidelines.

Understanding Skin Tightness and Ageing

In medical terms, skin tightening describes a range of non-surgical or minimally invasive procedures that aim to stimulate collagen and improve firmness. Your GP can discuss these concepts, review your health and medication history, and determine whether specialist referral or lifestyle measures are appropriate.

Depending on your needs, your GP may:

  • Offer guidance on nutrition, hydration, and sun protection to support skin health
  • Discuss topical or procedural options that may be available through accredited dermatologists or cosmetic physicians
  • Provide referrals for further specialist assessment if indicated

Common reasons to seek GP advice include mild skin laxity after weight change or ageing, or wanting evidence-based information before pursuing cosmetic treatment.

What to Expect During Your GP Consultation

Your consultation involves a detailed discussion about your concerns and overall health.

The GP will examine your skin, review relevant factors such as medications or allergies, and outline next steps.

If cosmetic or medical intervention is appropriate, you’ll receive clear information about benefits, risks, and follow-up.
Your GP may also recommend routine skin checks, sun-safety strategies, or nutrition advice as part of holistic care.
