At Lumière Medi Spa, we’re shedding light on the hidden impact of UV exposure and how it quietly accelerates skin ageing. In this blog, we’ll explore the science behind photoageing, debunk common sun myths, and share practical advice on how to protect your skin without giving up the glow.

We’ll also highlight simple but powerful steps you can take to support your gut and in turn, your skin. From nutrition and lifestyle tips to understanding the role of stress and inflammation, we’ll guide you through how to nurture skin health from the inside out.
Because sometimes, the real glow-up starts in your gut.

As regenerative treatments like Profhilo and Polynucleotides take the spotlight, many are asking ‘are dermal fillers a thing of the past?’ At Lumière MediSpa Oxford, the answer is a confident no.

Retinol has long been a skincare staple, praised for its ability to smooth fine lines, boost collagen, and improve skin tone. However, new UK and EU regulations are set to limit its concentration in over-the-counter products, aiming to reduce the risk of irritation and long-term skin sensitivity.
