TREATMENTS
Treatments Offered
Mr Tom Pidgeon offers a carefully selected range of facial aesthetic and minor surgical treatments, supported by his background in reconstructive plastic surgery and specialist anatomical knowledge.
CONSULTANT-LED TREATMENT
A Considered Approach to Aesthetic Care
Every treatment begins with a detailed consultation. Mr Pidgeon takes time to understand each patient’s concerns, explain the available options clearly and recommend treatment only where it is appropriate. His approach is guided by anatomical knowledge, clinical judgement and a commitment to natural, considered results.
Comprehensive Facial Aesthetics Consultation
A comprehensive consultation is critical to signpost the next best steps in the journey of enhancing facial aesthetics or reversing signs of early aging. Both will be explored in detail to create a treatment pathway that suits you that Mr Pidgeon will lead for you personally.
Botulinum Toxin
Botulinum toxin in suitable people can be used to reduce facial wrinkles. It can be used to reduce the noticeability of existing wrinkles and to reduce the development of future wrinkles. The effects are not permanent, reverse naturally over time, and tend to last around 4-5 months. Botulinum toxin is given with small injections into the correct facial muscles that you wish to have treated. The most common areas treated are the forehead, frown area or crow’s feet zones on the sides of the eyes. The value of treatment with Botulinum toxin will be explored between you and Mr Pidgeon during your consultation, and every decision is made on an individual basis.
Dermal Fillers
With optimised skin care to restore skin health, and admininstered correctly with an eye for detail, dermal fillers can be used to enhance regions of the face where volume is lacking, or where it has been lost due to ageing.
Skin bio-stimulator treatments including Calcium Hydroxyapatite
Biostimulators include advanced injectable treatments that support collagen production and help improve skin quality over time.
Mole Removal
Mr Pidgeon is experienced in the evaluation and removal of benign skin lesions such as moles (naevi), skin tags (acrochondons) and other benign skin growths.
Cyst & Lipoma Removal
Epidermoid cysts, pilar cysts and small lipomas can be removed under local anaesthetic. A full consultation will provide the details you seek for this treatment.
Scar Revision
Scar management requires a full spectrum of potential aids to improve the appearance and sometimes feel of a scar. Notably, scars do improve with time, but when unsightly scars remain, other options for treatment are available and Mr Pidgeon will discuss these with you.
Skin Cancer Removal & Reconstruction
Mr Pidgeon is an experienced skin cancer surgeon with a specialist interest in facial surgical reconstruction. He has an active NHS practice at Russells’ Hall Hospital and is a member of the Skin Cancer Multidisciplinary Team. Mr Pidgeon will happily review you at Russells Hall for any potential skin cancer referrals. If appropriate, he will see you privately at your request and will make the most suitable recommendation for how to care for you as your skin cancer is treated.
