The Best Treatments for Tired Mums: How to Refresh Your Face Without Surgery
At Your Beauty Doctor in Mapperley, we see so many mums who tell us the same thing: “I just look tired all the time, even when I’m not.” Between late nights, early mornings, and juggling a busy family life, it’s easy for the skin to lose its brightness and bounce. As a working mum of 2 myself, I can certainly relate to how you feel!
The good news? With the right treatments, you can soften lines, brighten your eyes, and bring back that healthy glowing skin - all in a way that’s subtle and looks totally natural.
Why Mums Often Feel They Look “Tired”
Motherhood is a beautiful journey, but it’s also one that can take a toll on your skin:
Lack of sleep makes dark circles and puffiness worse
Stress speeds up collagen breakdown
Hormonal changes after pregnancy can affect skin texture and elasticity
Constant multitasking often leaves little time for self-care
That’s why we offer tailored treatments for tired mums in Mapperley - designed to fit into your lifestyle and give results you can see quickly.
Our Recommended Treatments for Tired Mums
1. Mid-Face Dermal Filler – Restore youthful volume
As we age (and especially when we’re run down), we lose volume in the mid-face, which can make the under-eye area look hollow and tired. Mid-face filler restores subtle lift to the cheeks, smooths the transition to the lower eyelid, and instantly refreshes your look. You don’t need to afraid of filler in the right hands. We specialise in natural, undetectable results from filler - no hamster cheeks here!
2. Botox® Injections – Not frozen just fresher
A few tiny Botox injections can relax the muscles that cause forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet. This softens your expression and makes you look less tired or stressed - even on those days you are running on coffee. We can even achieve a subtle brow lift with anti-wrinkle injections.
3. Skin Boosters – Hydrate and improve skin quality
When skin looks dull or crepey, skin boosters can bring it back to life by delivering deep hydration and stimulating natural regeneration. At Your Beauty Doctor, we offer Polynucleotides to improve elasticity, boost hydration, and support skin repair, Sunekos which combines amino acids and hyaluronic acid to regenerate the skin from within, and Profhilo® for an intense hydrating effect while encouraging collagen and elastin production. These treatments are ideal for busy mums, as they restore a healthy, natural glow without altering your facial shape.
Questions we often get asked by our busy mums in Mapperley:
Q: Will having aesthetics treatments make me look “done” or unnatural?
A: No, our approach at Your Beauty Doctor in Mapperley is subtle and natural. People will say you look well, rested, radiant- but won’t guess you’ve had anything ‘done.’
Q: Is there downtime after having aesthetics treatments?
A: Our aesthetics treatments have minimal downtime and patients tend to go straight back to work, (or the kids!) immediately after. With all injectable aesthetic treatments, there may be some minor redness or swelling which settles shortly after.
Q: Can I have aesthetic treatments while breastfeeding?
A: No - injectable aesthetic treatments should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding. We can advise on safe alternatives during this time.
Q: How long do aesthetic treatment results last?
A: Results and timelines vary, let’s break it down for you:
Mid-face filler: most patients find their filler treatments last around 12–18 months, with some patients returning for a minor ‘tweak’ to combat any new signs of volume loss.
Botox: 3–4 months, regular treatments keep those wrinkles at bay. We offer a Membership Plan too, which can help you spread the cost of your anti-wrinkle treatments with an easy monthly payment.
Skin boosters: An initial course of treatments is required for optimum results. For long lasting results, we recommend a maintenance session every 6 months.
Motherhood may be the most rewarding job in the world, but it doesn’t have to leave its mark on your face.
