‘I feel younger when I look in the mirror’
Tamzin Outhwaite, 55, has undergone a non-surgical facelift and the results have wowed her army of followers.
Tamzin revealed that, for the past 12 months, she’s been having a series of non-surgical facelift treatments with one of London’s top aesthetic doctors to rejuvenate her appearance.
Speaking candidly about her journey, Tamzin has shared her delight at the “amazing” results. And the ex-EastEnders actress has said it’s left her feeling more confident than ever while staying true to her conviction to avoid cosmetic surgery.
Why Tamzin Outhwaite had a non-surgical facelift
Tamzin said: “When I looked in the mirror I could see that my face just never looked as good as it used to. At my age I know it’s hard to avoid, but I’d really started to notice the difference. It was getting me down a bit. I’d also lost some weight and my face looked like it was sagging and dropping. So I decided to do some research on what could be done to improve things.
“I definitely didn’t want to go under the knife. I didn’t want any form of facelift, and I’m extremely wary of having injectables because I’m an actor and I need to have an expressive face. It’s essential for me to have a natural look, not a frozen face. But I was still keen to find out alternative ways to improve my appearance and a friend advised me to give NeoGen a try.
“After doing a bit of research, I could see that Shirley Ballas had got an amazing result with these treatments. She now looks about 10 years younger. So I thought I’d give it a go.”
What did Tamzin have done?
Tamzin initially signed up to have three monthly NeoGen nitrogen plasma sessions at Dr Maryam McMillan’s Ambra Clinic in Finchley, North London. NeoGen is a non-invasive procedure that uses super-heated nitrogen to stimulate skin rejuvenation.
Tamzin said: “Dr McMillan would focus on areas that I specifically wanted to improve, like the slight drooping of the skin on the jawline, the lines above my top lip and around the eyes, and also areas for redness and enlarged pores. Those areas would get two or more passes of the device to get more energy into the skin to help promote even more healing.
“After the first three treatments I could really see a major improvement. The general texture of the skin was improved, and where it had looked a bit dull and lifeless before, it was now really radiant and more dewy. Friends started to notice as well.”
As a result of the initial success of the treatments, Tamzin extended the treatment program. In total she had eight low energy treatments over the space of a year, at a total cost of £4,950.
Tamzin said: “I could have probably got the same result with six monthly treatments. But due to work commitments I had to take quite a few breaks over a year, so I decided to have a few extra treatments. From now on I will look to have a top up treatment every three to four months for maintenance.”
‘So happy with the results’
The actress added: “I’m so happy with the results, and so much more confident about my appearance. The most striking change is that it’s tighter. My jawline and cheeks were getting a bit saggy before, but they aren’t any more.
“The general skin quality is improved as well, my pores are definitely smaller, my complexion is smoother and more uniform in tone. Previously there were red patches caused by broken blood vessels, they’ve also gone.
“The main thing I’ve noticed is that people I haven’t seen for ages always say to me: ‘Your skin looks amazing,’ and that’s enough for me. I feel younger when I look in the mirror.”
