Royal Wedding Sparks Boom In Brides-To-Be Booking ‘Ring Bling' Treatments At The Harley Medical Group
Released on: February 12, 2011, 4:50 am In the wake of ‘that’ picture of Prince William and his bride-to-be showing off her beautiful hand and even more stunning engagement ring, brides are turning their attention to their hands – to make sure their pinkies are perfect for the wedding album. The UK’s largest cosmetic surgery provider, The Harley Medical Group, is reporting a 50% surge in women aged 25-35 coming in for non-surgical treatments on the hands. Bernadette Harte, Non-Surgical Specialist at The Harley Medical Group, comments: “We have seen a huge increase in recently engaged women coming in to our clinics and having treatments on their hands. Most have said that having seen the picture of Kate Middleton’s stunning hand they want to make sure they have immaculate and youthful hands to show off their ‘ring bling’.”
Jane Usher, aged 29, is a patient at The Harley Medical Group who got engaged during the same month as William and Kate, comments: “When I saw Kate Middleton’s beautifully manicured young looking hand, showing off her engagement ring, I felt very self-conscious. Even though I am the same age as Kate, due to sun damage my hands look older than they should. After having Aesthera PPx at The Harley Medical Group my skin looks much fresher and healthy.” Harte comments further: “The Harley Medical Group has also seen an increase in older divorced women coming into our clinics for treatments on their hands before their second marriage. They are getting rid of the tell-tale signs of aging and sun damage from their hands and want to be able to show-off their engagement rings.” And it doesn’t just end there the rush for laser treatments extends to laser hair removal which is also on the up with increases in enquiry of over 30% YOY. It seems that people are preparing themselves to look good for summer and the wedding season is driving enquiry more than ever this year in the wake of the royal weddings.

Intense Pulse Light (IPL) treatments such as Aesthera PPx, which can also be used on the face, neck and chest areas, are increasingly
popular for use on hands and arms. Aesthera PPx is a highly effective treatment,
which rejuvenates the skin by destroying unwanted red or brown pigment and unsightly
veins. The treatment action breaks down melanin within the skin, which the body
naturally and safely absorbs, leaving it looking immediately more youthful and
healthy.
