FACIAL TREATMENTS
Chemical Peels
Skilled application of different chemical solutions at specific concentrations (strengths) leads to the exfoliation (falling or peeling off) of old, tired, “leathery - looking” upper skin layers.
The skins natural renewal and healing processes are thus set in motion, leading to a fresher, smoother appearance. Excessive Melanin Pigment (Melasma) can also be treated with chemical peels.

FAQ

You might feel mild stinging while the chemical solution is on your skin.

Microneedling
Virtually painless, micro-needling of the skin dermis using a mechanized Dermapen apparatus causes new collagen formation and skin surface rejuvenation via the body’s natural response to wounding.
Microneedling is a dermaroller procedure that uses small needles to prick the skin. The purpose of treatment is to generate new collagen and skin tissue for smoother, firmer, more toned skin. Microneedling is mostly used on the face for skin issues such as acne scarrring, pigmentation and melasma, and may also be used treat various scars, wrinkles, and large pores.
Dermaplaning
Our Aesthetic Clinician, using a fine blade gently & manually exfoliates the superficial dead and dull skin layers and fine facial hair leaving a smooth glowing skin. The dreaded “peach-fuzz” facial hairs are removed leaving the face as the perfect foundation for later flawless make-up application. For enhanced results use in combination with one of our chemical peels or Cryolift treatments.
