Injectables
Injectable treatments can give significant results very quickly, and that is why they have grown in popularity as non-surgical alternatives for cosmetic enhancements. The results are generally viewed as 'you but better', achieving an appearance that makes you look youthful and energised.
Neuromodulators (Botox): These injections have various medical and cosmetic uses. They can be used to soften dynamic wrinkles around the face (forehead wrinkles, frown lines, crow's feet, bunny lines). They can also be used for jaw slimming by masseter reduction, dimpled chin, gummy smile, and bands on the neck. Migraines, excessive sweating, and Hidradenitis Suppurativa are some of the medical conditions that can be improved with this treatment.
Dermal fillers: We use hyaluronic acid fillers in our treatments. These add volume and definition to areas of the face that are lacking, such as the cheeks, jaw, chin, and lips. Improve your facial symmetry, soften static lines (nasolabial folds, marionette lines) and get a fresh-faced appearance that usually lasts for at least 6 months.
Injectable moisturiser: Profhilo is an injectable hyaluronic acid gel that stimulates collagen within the skin, improving its firmness and hydration. This treatment can be applied to various parts of the body and continues to improve the quality of the skin over time. With minimal downtime and a lower side effect profile, although new, this injectable treatment has become quite popular globally.
Mesotherapy: Mesotherapy is a method of delivering 'cocktails' with different active ingredients through a series of small injections to a particular depth within the skin, in order to treat different skin issues, rejuvenate the skin, remove unwanted fat, brighten the skin, among others.
PRP Treatments: Platelet Rich Plasma is a homogenous (gotten from your body) product that has a lot of uses. It contains growth factors that rejuvenate the skin. It's also great for wound healing, as an alternative to filler, to stimulate hair growth, and for genital treatments too. It's one of those treatments where the treated areas continue improving for a long time after the procedure, with a natural glow when done on the face.
Acne and Hyperpigmentation
Acne
As one of the most common skin conditions, acne affects people in many ways physically and mentally. We understand this, and have different treatment options to choose from that will be of help. As with all cases, a consultation is a necessary first step., and as some types of acne require taking medication to reduce breakouts. it is important to know if you will need a prescription.
Chemical Peel: Take off layers of dead skin cells to reveal healthier skin, reduce breakouts and fade dark spots.
LED Therapy: Fight the acne-causing bacteria and reduce inflammation through sessions of LED therapy. It's also safe for use in younger patients, so is a viable option for treating teen acne.
.
Microneedling: One of the possible after-effects from having acne is acne scarring, and microneedling sessions help to reduce the appearance of acne scars in patients over multiple sessions, usually in combination with other treatments.
Acne Treatment Program: Get a great discount on your acne treatment procedures if you sign up for the Acne Treatment Program. Your products will be sourced for you, and you can commence the plan with ease; you will also get regular follow-up check-ins and reminders ahead of your next appointment. Payment in instalments is available if you choose this option.
