Treatments & Booking - Aesthetics.

Treatments are currently being offered on Monday's and Thursday's. Alternative days can be arranged at therapist discretion.

 

All appointment durations are 1hr long. Each appointment allows for a consultation period, time to get on/off the treatment couch and desired procedure to be carried out. 

​

Treatments available:

​

 - Dermal Fillers (Lips, Nasolabial folds & Marionette lines).

 - Dermal fillers are gel-like substances injected beneath the skin to restore lost volume, smooth lines, and soften creases, or enhance facial contours. They're commonly used to treat wrinkles, folds, and depressions, particularly in the face, but can also be used on other parts of the body. These fillers are often made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body, or from other materials like calcium hydroxylapatite or poly-L-lactic acid. They work by plumping up the area under the skin, giving it a fuller, smoother appearance. 

​

 - Anti Wrinkle Treatments (Forehead, Glabellar region, Crows feet).

 - Anti-wrinkle injections, also known as neuromodulator injections or botulinum toxin injections, are a popular cosmetic treatment used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face. 

Anti wrinkle treatments work by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause muscles to contract. When injected into specific facial muscles responsible for wrinkles, such as those between the eyebrows (glabellar lines), around the eyes (crow's feet), or on the forehead, botulinum toxin relaxes these muscles, resulting in smoother, less wrinkled skin.

Some key points about anti-wrinkle injections:

+ Treatment areas: Anti-wrinkle injections are commonly used to treat dynamic wrinkles, which are caused by repeated facial movements such as frowning, squinting, or smiling. Common treatment areas include the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes.

+ Procedure: Anti-wrinkle injections are typically administered by a qualified healthcare professional. The procedure involves injecting small amounts of toxin directly into the targeted facial muscles using a fine needle. Multiple injections may be required to achieve the desired results.

+ Results: The effects of anti-wrinkle injections are not immediate and typically start to become noticeable within a few days to a week after treatment. The full effects usually develop within two weeks and can last for up to 3 months, although individual results may vary.

+ Safety: When administered by a trained and experienced healthcare professional, anti-wrinkle injections are generally safe and well-tolerated. However, as with any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects, including bruising, swelling, redness, and temporary weakness or drooping of nearby muscles.

+ Maintenance: To maintain the results of anti-wrinkle injections, repeat treatments are typically required every few months. Over time, some individuals may find that the duration of effect increases with regular treatments.

 

Before undergoing anti-wrinkle injections, it's essential to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to discuss your goals, expectations, and any potential risks or contraindications. They can assess your suitability for treatment and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

​

 - Mesotherapy (Face, Under eyes, Scalp & Beard).

 - Mesotherapy is a technique that involves injecting small amounts of various substances into the middle layer of skin (mesoderm) to treat various conditions, primarily cosmetic concerns like cellulite, localized fat deposits, and skin rejuvenation. The substances injected can vary widely and may include vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes, plant extracts, and other medications. It's often used to address localized cosmetic issues, such as reducing the appearance of cellulite, contouring specific areas of the body, and improving skin tone and texture. Mesotherapy treatments are typically administered in a series of sessions, and the specific substances used can be customized based on the individual's needs and goals.

​

 - Skin Boosters (Face, under eyes, neck, hands). 

 - Skin boosters are a type of injectable treatment designed to improve the hydration, firmness, and overall quality of the skin. They typically consist of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body that helps maintain moisture and elasticity in the skin. The hyaluronic acid used in skin boosters is often formulated in a gel-like consistency, which allows for easy injection into the skin. Once injected, the hyaluronic acid molecules attract and retain water, helping to hydrate and plump up the skin from within. Skin boosters are commonly used to address issues such as dryness, dullness, fine lines, and loss of elasticity, particularly in areas like the face, neck, and hands. They can also help improve the overall texture and radiance of the skin. Treatment with skin boosters typically involves a series of injections spaced out over several weeks or months, depending on the specific product and treatment protocol. Results are usually gradual, with the full effects becoming apparent over time as the skin's hydration and collagen production are stimulated. Skin boosters are considered a minimally invasive and relatively safe treatment option when administered by a qualified healthcare professional.

​

 - Profhilo (Face).

 - Profhilo is a type of injectable treatment designed to improve skin hydration and firmness while also addressing signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles. It contains a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body that helps maintain moisture and elasticity in the skin.

What sets Profhilo apart from traditional dermal fillers or skin boosters is its unique formulation and injection technique. Profhilo is composed of a special type of hyaluronic acid that is thermally stabilized, allowing it to remain in the skin for longer periods and provide sustained hydration and collagen stimulation.

Unlike traditional fillers, which are typically injected into specific areas to add volume or contour the face, Profhilo is injected using a technique called the BAP (Bio Aesthetic Points) technique. This involves injecting small amounts of the product into multiple points across the face or other treatment areas, rather than targeting individual wrinkles or folds.

The aim of Profhilo treatment is to improve overall skin quality by boosting hydration, stimulating collagen and elastin production, and enhancing skin firmness and elasticity. It's particularly beneficial for addressing issues such as dullness, dryness, and laxity in the skin.

Profhilo is typically administered in two treatment sessions spaced about four weeks apart, with maintenance treatments recommended every six to twelve months to maintain results. The treatment is minimally invasive and generally well-tolerated, with minimal downtime.

​

 - Vitamin B12.

 - Cosmetic vitamin B12 refers to the inclusion of vitamin B12 in skincare and beauty products for its potential benefits to the skin. While most commonly known for its role in supporting overall health, vitamin B12 has also gained attention in the cosmetics industry for its potential skincare benefits.

Vitamin B12 is believed to offer several potential benefits for the skin:

 + Moisturization: Vitamin B12 is thought to help hydrate the skin by improving its barrier function and preventing moisture loss. This can help to keep the skin soft, supple, and hydrated.

 + Anti-inflammatory properties: Some research suggests that vitamin B12 may have anti-inflammatory properties, which could help soothe and calm irritated or inflamed skin.

 + Wound healing: Vitamin B12 plays a role in skin cell regeneration and wound healing processes. Including vitamin B12 in skincare products may help support these processes, promoting faster healing of wounds and minor skin irritations.

 + Antioxidant activity: Vitamin B12 exhibits antioxidant properties, which can help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals and environmental stressors. This may help to prevent premature aging and improve the overall appearance of the skin.

​

 - Dermaplaning (face).

 - Dermaplaning is a cosmetic procedure that involves using a sterile surgical scalpel to gently exfoliate the surface of the skin, primarily the face. During the procedure, a trained skincare professional or dermatologist will carefully scrape the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (commonly known as "peach fuzz") from the skin's surface.

Dermaplaning is often performed as a standalone treatment or in combination with other skincare procedures, such as chemical peels or microdermabrasion. Some key benefits of dermaplaning include:

 + Exfoliation: By removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells, dermaplaning helps to reveal smoother, brighter skin underneath. This can improve the overall texture and appearance of the skin, making it look more youthful and radiant.

 + Hair removal: In addition to exfoliating the skin, dermaplaning also effectively removes fine vellus hair from the face. This can create a smoother, more even complexion and may enhance the penetration and effectiveness of skincare products applied afterward.

 + Enhanced product absorption: By removing the layer of dead skin cells and fine hair, dermaplaning can help skincare products penetrate more deeply into the skin, maximizing their effectiveness.

 

Dermaplaning is generally considered safe for most skin types, but it may not be suitable for individuals with certain skin conditions, such as active acne or sensitive skin. After dermaplaning, it's essential to follow a proper skincare routine and use sunscreen to protect the newly exposed skin from sun damage. Additionally, avoid using harsh exfoliants or undergoing other abrasive skincare treatments immediately after dermaplaning, as this can irritate the skin.

​

 - Chemical Peels (CosmoPro).

 - CosmoPro chemical peels are a type of chemical peel formulated and distributed by CosmoFrance Inc. CosmoPro chemical peels are designed to provide exfoliation and skin rejuvenation by removing the outermost layers of the skin, revealing smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking skin underneath.

These peels typically contain various types and concentrations of chemical exfoliants, such as alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), trichloroacetic acid (TCA), or combinations thereof. The specific formulation and strength of the peel can vary depending on the individual's skin type, concerns, and desired results.

CosmoPro chemical peels are often used to address a range of skin concerns, including:

 + Fine lines and wrinkles: Chemical peels can help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by promoting collagen production and increasing skin cell turnover.

 + Hyperpigmentation: Chemical peels can help reduce the appearance of sun damage, age spots, and other forms of hyperpigmentation by exfoliating the outer layers of the skin and promoting the growth of new, evenly pigmented skin cells.

 + Acne and acne scars: Chemical peels can help reduce acne breakouts and improve the appearance of acne scars by unclogging pores, reducing inflammation, and promoting skin healing.

 + Uneven skin tone and texture: Chemical peels can help improve the overall tone and texture of the skin by removing dead skin cells, smoothing rough patches, and revealing a more even complexion.

​

CosmoPro chemical peels are typically administered by trained skincare professionals. The procedure involves applying the chemical peel solution to the skin and allowing it to penetrate for a specific period before neutralizing and removing it. Depending on the strength of the peel and the individual's skin sensitivity, mild tingling or discomfort may be experienced during the treatment.

After a CosmoPro chemical peel, it's essential to follow post-treatment care instructions provided by the skincare professional to optimize results and minimize the risk of side effects, such as redness, irritation, or peeling. Additionally, sunscreen use is crucial to protect the newly exfoliated skin from sun damage and maintain the results of the peel.
