You may know of Emma Willott from the stories she shares on her @byemmacampbell IG account. Stories about her two children, travel, Cheshire living, and her beauty tips. It was such a pleasure to welcome Emma to our Este Medical Manchester Road cosmetic clinic in Cheshire for a facial scan. It started a valuable conversation about sun damage and preventing skin pigmentation.
Emma was happy to reflect on her past skincare mistakes and learn more from her Este consultation. We’re sharing her insights with you because, at the end of the day, we all make mistakes as we discover what works best for our skin.
Emma Willott: Skin Mistakes I Made So You Don’t Have To
"In my 20s, I thought I could dry out acne and spots by spending time in the sun without a high SPF, and I also used sunbeds. Looking back, it’s so obvious now that this was a bad idea. At the time, I thought I was solving a skincare problem, but in reality, I created a whole new one — sun and UV damage.
Another mistake I made was overusing acids like retinol and tretinoin. I was using them too many times a week, which left my cheeks more sensitive and increased redness. I really wish I had started gradually and sought professional advice before pushing my skin so hard.
Knowing what I know now, I also wish I had explored laser treatments earlier. I recently had my first BBL (BroadBand Light) session, and just one week later, I can already see improvement in my facial pigmentation. Based on these results, I plan to continue with BBL MOXI treatments to work on pigmentation, redness, and overall skin texture. Learning from these experiences has made me more mindful about how I care for my skin moving forward."
We All Make Skincare Mistakes
We would like to thank Emma for taking us behind the scenes and showing what to expect from a skincare scan at UK Este cosmetic clinics. We’ve all made mistakes when it comes to skincare and finding the best routine to keep our skin healthy, glowing, and protected against premature ageing. Just know that Este UK offers a wide range of anti-ageing skincare treatments, our very own EP Beauty line, and many professional procedures designed to reduce hyperpigmentation, improve skin texture, and rejuvenate your face.
If you are dealing with sun-related skin damage or unwanted facial pigmentation, we invite you to book an appointment at an Este Medical clinic near you today!
Best Treatments For Sun Damage and Pigmentation
As skincare experts, we’re pleased to see Emma has found a non-surgical treatment that works for her. BBL Moxi is just one of many Este Medical UK skin options we recommend for improving skin texture and reducing redness and pigmentation.
What is BBL + Moxi for Skin?
Broadband Light (BBL) is a highly effective form of intense pulsed light therapy that targets a range of skin concerns, including rosacea-related redness. This advanced treatment works by promoting cell regeneration and boosting overall skin health through the use of skin-safe broadband light energy.
At Este UK, we combine BBL with the Moxi laser to deliver even greater results. This dual approach stimulates collagen production, brightens the complexion, and helps improve the skin’s tone and texture. BBL + Moxi is especially effective for concerns such as skin redness and facial flushing.
With each Moxi BBL session taking just 15 to 30 minutes, this UK skin treatment is an ideal choice for those looking for noticeable improvements without disrupting their schedules.
No Mistake, You Need To Try These Skincare Treatments
We’ve already talked about BBL, but there are other fantastic skincare treatments worth exploring if you’re dealing with pigmentation or skin damage. Sometimes just one is enough to make a real difference, but after a skin consultation, you might find a combination works best for you. Here are several effective treatments for your consideration:
- Cosmelan Peel: Targets stubborn pigmentation and evens out skin tone.
- Chemical Peel: Smooths skin and brightens dull or sun-damaged areas.
- Laser Resurfacing: Improves skin texture, reduces pigmentation, and encourages fresh, healthy skin to renew.
- Regular Facials (see EP Facial): Boosts skin hydration, nourishes the skin at a deep level, and keeps your skin glowing. Gentle enough to have once a month!
Try a UK Skin Scan!
The best way to find out which of these proven treatments will be most effective for you is to book a UK skin assessment. The first step is arranging your Este consultation, so we can understand your skin needs and goals. You saw how it helped get Emma on the right track — the same can happen for you. Just send us a message through our Este Medical Group website to get started.
Why Cosmelan Peel Gets High Praise for Fixing Sun Damage
Hyperpigmentation is the skin’s natural response to excessive UV exposure. Too much sun triggers the body to produce more melanin, which can lead to freckles, age spots, uneven skin tone, and skin blotches. This sun-induced skin discolouration is common for both men and women. A Cosmelan Pigmentation Peel is one of the most effective treatments for balancing skin tone, reducing darker patches, and restoring a more even facial complexion. It works on mild to severe pigmentation, making it a top choice for anyone looking to reverse the visible effects of sun damage.
