Microdermabrasion

60min £45

Microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive procedure designed to exfoliate and remove the outermost layer of skin, typically on the face or body. This treatment helps enhance the appearance of your skin by reducing the visibility of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, and other minor cosmetic imperfections. By stimulating the production of new, healthy skin cells, microdermabrasion promotes a smoother, more youthful complexion.

What is microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that involves a dermatologist or skin specialist using a special device to gently exfoliate the outermost layer of your skin. This process helps remove dead skin cells, promoting a smoother, more youthful appearance. Microdermabrasion can be performed on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, back, hands, and chest, and is typically used to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and address issues like age spots or acne scars.

Microdermabrasion Benefits:

• Stimulates new skin cell growth: Promotes the production of fresh, healthy skin cells.
• Reveals younger, undamaged skin: Removes the outer layer, uncovering smoother, more vibrant skin underneath.
• Boosts collagen production: Thickens collagen, the protein that maintains skin firmness and elasticity, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

What are the benefits of microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion exfoliates the uppermost layer of skin, improving its appearance and texture. This treatment can help reduce the appearance of:

• Age spots: Lightens dark spots caused by aging or sun exposure.
• Enlarged pores or blackheads: Cleanses and minimizes pore size.
• Fine lines or wrinkles: Smooths the skin and helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
• Mild scars: Particularly effective for acne scars, improving skin texture.
• Skin discoloration or uneven skin tone: Promotes a more even skin tone and brighter complexion.
• Stretch marks: Helps reduce the visibility of stretch marks.
• Sun damage: Repairs and refreshes skin affected by sun exposure.

Who shouldn’t have microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion may not be suitable for everyone. It’s important to consult with a healthcare provider if you have:

• Active skin infections: Such as herpes, warts, or any untreated skin conditions.
• Severe acne: Active cystic acne or open pimples could worsen with exfoliation.
• Rosacea or sensitive skin: Microdermabrasion may irritate conditions like rosacea or overly sensitive skin.
• Eczema or dermatitis: Exfoliation could further irritate inflamed or sensitive skin.
• Sunburn: Skin that is sunburned may become more irritated by the procedure.
• Recent chemical peel or laser treatment: These procedures may leave your skin too sensitive for microdermabrasion.
• Use of certain medications: Such as Accutane or other skin-thinning medications, which can make your skin more prone to injury.

Always consult with a dermatologist to assess whether microdermabrasion is appropriate for your skin type and condition.

Ultrasonic

60 min £55 (inc.ampoules)

Ultrasonic facial therapy is a nourishing, anti-aging treatment that enhances a deep-cleansing facial or microdermabrasion. It uses high-frequency sound waves to penetrate deep into the skin, offering one of the most advanced methods for delivering active ingredients to the skin.

During the treatment, the sound waves stimulate cellular renewal and repair, toning facial muscles, improving blood circulation, encouraging lymphatic drainage, and reducing puffiness and swelling. This method helps active ingredients—both water-soluble and fat-soluble—easily enter the skin, promoting enhanced penetration of skincare products.

The ultrasound technology also intensifies metabolic processes in the skin, increasing nutrient and oxygen supply to cells. The positive impact on connective tissue fibers helps tighten and improve skin elasticity, leading to a firmer, more youthful appearance. Additionally, the heat generated during the treatment increases blood flow, further supporting skin health and rejuvenation.

Benefits of Ultrasonic Facial Therapy:

• Improved Skincare Product Penetration: The increased permeability of the cell membrane allows active ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin, making skincare products more effective.
• Boosted Microcirculation & Cell Metabolism: The treatment stimulates microcirculation, improving the oxygen and nutrient supply to skin cells and enhancing overall skin health.
• Increased Lymph Flow: The mechanical effect of ultrasound promotes lymphatic drainage, helping to remove toxins and reduce puffiness.
• PH Normalisation: The treatment helps balance the skin's pH levels, contributing to a healthier complexion.
• Toned Muscles: Ultrasonic waves tone and tighten facial muscles, improving the skin's firmness and elasticity.
• Reduced Lines, Acne & Scars: The therapy helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, acne, and scars, promoting smoother, clearer skin.

Cavitation Peeling

60 min £45

Cavitation Peeling +Sonophoresis (inc.ampoules)

60 min £ 70

Cavitation peeling is a gentle yet effective treatment suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, acne-prone, and capillary-prone skin. It is especially safe for delicate areas, such as around the eyes or mouth. The treatment utilizes ultrasound technology to achieve its beneficial effects.

During the procedure, water is applied to the skin, creating microbubbles beneath the device. The cavitation process turns the water into gas, and as these bubbles pop, they break down old epidermal cells. This helps cleanse the pores and sebaceous gland openings while oxygenating the skin.

Key Benefits:

• Enhances Skincare Product Penetration: Boosts the absorption of active ingredients, making skincare products more effective.
• Prepares Skin for Other Beauty Treatments: Prepares the skin to better absorb subsequent treatments, enhancing their results.

Sonophoresis

60 min £55 (inc.ampoules)

What is Sonophoresis?
Sonophoresis is a skin treatment that uses ultrasound technology to enhance the absorption of active ingredients in skincare products. The ultrasound waves generate a deep vasodilation effect within the skin, increasing the permeability of cell membranes. This allows for better penetration of nutrients, oxygen, and blood to the skin cells, optimizing the effects of skincare treatments.

Typically, sonophoresis is performed after the skin has been thoroughly cleansed and exfoliated. The treatment involves applying a carefully selected serum or cream that contains active ingredients tailored to the skin's needs—whether for hydration, anti-aging, or other concerns. The ultrasound waves help these active substances penetrate deeper into the skin layers, allowing them to work more effectively.

Benefits of Sonophoresis:

• Skin Regeneration: Helps restore dry and damaged skin, promoting a healthier appearance.
• Muscle Relaxation: The ultrasound waves can have a calming effect on the muscles, providing relief from tension.
• Reduction of Dark Circles: Helps to reduce puffiness and shadows under the eyes, improving the overall appearance of the eye area.
• Smoothing of Scars and Wrinkles: Assists in reducing the visibility of scars and smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.

Overall, sonophoresis enhances the effectiveness of skincare treatments by enabling deeper penetration of active ingredients, offering visible improvements in skin texture and tone.

Recommended for:

• Skin Irritation: Helps soothe and calm irritated skin, promoting a healthier, more balanced complexion.
• Acne: Aids in reducing acne-related inflammation, blemishes, and post-acne scars.
• Discoloration: Improves uneven skin tone and pigmentation, targeting dark spots and discoloration.
• Signs of Aging: Helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other visible signs of aging.
• Extended Capillaries: Beneficial for sensitive skin prone to visible capillaries or redness, as it helps strengthen and soothe the skin.
• Dark Spots (e.g., Sun Spots): Effective in lightening dark spots caused by sun damage or hyperpigmentation.
• Scars: Assists in the healing process and improves the appearance of scars, including those from acne or injury.

Not recommended for:

• Pregnancy: Sonophoresis is not recommended during pregnancy due to the use of ultrasound waves, which may not be safe for the developing fetus.
• Frequent Migraines: If you suffer from frequent migraines, the stimulation caused by ultrasound waves may trigger or worsen symptoms.
• Fever: The treatment is not recommended if you have a fever, as it may exacerbate your symptoms and affect your skin's ability to heal.
• The Presence of Metallic Implants (e.g., Pacemakers): Sonophoresis involves ultrasound waves, which may interfere with the functioning of metallic implants, such as pacemakers or other electronic devices.
• Multiple Sclerosis: People with multiple sclerosis should avoid ultrasound treatments, as it could potentially worsen their condition.
• Cancer and Those Undergoing Postoperative Treatment(s): Those with cancer or who are recovering from surgery should avoid this treatment to prevent potential complications or interference with recovery.

Breastfeeding: Sonophoresis is generally considered safe for women who are breastfeeding, as ultrasound waves used on facial tissue do not affect lactation. However, it is always advisable to consult a healthcare provider before undergoing any treatment during this period.

Vacuum Suction

(Lymphatic Drainage) 60min £45

The lymphatic system is a crucial component of the immune system, responsible for draining excess fluid, waste, and toxins from the body, while also transporting white blood cells to fight infections. Vacuum suction for lymphatic drainage helps to stimulate this process, improving the flow of lymphatic fluid and promoting detoxification.

Benefits of Vacuum Suction (Lymphatic Drainage) for the Face:

• Improved Skin Appearance: By improving lymphatic drainage, the treatment helps remove toxins from the skin, enhancing blood circulation and delivering fresh oxygen and nutrients to the skin. This process results in a rejuvenated, youthful glow.
• Reduction of Puffiness: The gentle suction helps reduce swelling and puffiness in the face, especially around the eyes and jawline.
• Enhanced Skin Radiance: Regular lymphatic drainage can help improve the natural radiance of the skin by promoting healthier circulation and the removal of waste.
• Contouring Effect: The technique enhances the natural contours of the face by encouraging the movement of lymphatic fluid, reducing water retention, and promoting a slimmer appearance.
• Detoxification: The process of lymphatic drainage helps the body expel toxins more efficiently, improving overall skin tone and texture.

Vacuum suction is a non-invasive treatment that can be particularly effective in giving the face a refreshed, sculpted appearance while supporting overall skin health.

Radio Frequency

50 min £55 (inc.ampoules)

What is Radio Frequency (RF) Therapy?
Radiofrequency (RF) therapy, also known as radiofrequency skin tightening, is a non-surgical treatment that uses energy waves to heat the deeper layers of the skin, specifically the dermis. The heat generated stimulates the production of collagen, which is essential for skin elasticity and firmness.

How Does RF Therapy Work?
RF waves are a form of low-energy radiation, far less intense than X-rays or gamma rays. The energy released in RF therapy heats the skin to temperatures between 122°F and 167°F (50–75°C). This heat stimulates collagen production in the dermal layer, which helps tighten the skin and reduce wrinkles over time.

What Are RF Waves?
RF waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation, similar to radio waves, WiFi signals, and microwaves, but with much lower energy than higher-energy radiation like X-rays. RF therapy uses these low-energy waves to achieve safe, effective results for skin tightening.

Benefits of RF Therapy:

• Skin Tightening: RF therapy is most commonly used for tightening loose or sagging skin. The heat stimulates collagen production, leading to firmer and more youthful-looking skin.
• Wrinkle Reduction: As the collagen regenerates, fine lines and wrinkles become less noticeable, resulting in smoother skin.
• Sun Damage Repair: RF therapy can help combat the signs of sun damage, as increased collagen production improves the skin's structure and texture.
• Non-Surgical Treatment: Unlike facelifts or other surgical options, RF therapy is non-invasive, requiring no downtime.

Why Choose RF Therapy?
RF therapy is an excellent option for individuals seeking skin rejuvenation without the need for surgery. It’s effective for reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and signs of aging, and it can be used on various parts of the body, including the face, neck, and abdomen. The treatment is generally safe and suitable for all skin types, with results improving over several sessions.

Fighting sun damage
Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun can significantly damage your skin over time. UV rays penetrate the skin, leading to the breakdown of collagen fibers, which are essential for maintaining skin’s firmness and elasticity. This damage causes the collagen to become disorganized, resulting in premature aging, wrinkles, and sagging skin.

The researchers found that three treatments over six weeks significantly reduced wrinkles. This study demonstrates that RF therapy can have a notable impact on the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, promoting smoother, firmer skin through the stimulation of collagen production. The results highlight the effectiveness of a consistent treatment schedule in rejuvenating the skin and diminishing the visible signs of aging

RF for face slimming
RF (Radio Frequency) treatment has the potential to be used as a nonsurgical method of slimming your face. By targeting the deeper layers of the skin with controlled heat, RF therapy helps to stimulate collagen production and improve skin elasticity. This process can tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of sagging, leading to a more sculpted and defined facial contour. Additionally, RF treatment can help reduce localized fat and enhance the overall smoothness and tone of the skin, making it an effective option for facial slimming without the need for invasive surgery.

Dermapen Microneedling

30 min £80

Dermapen Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses small, sterilized needles to create tiny punctures in the skin. This process stimulates the body's natural healing response, encouraging collagen production and promoting skin regeneration. The treatment is effective for improving skin texture and addressing concerns like:

• Acne scars
• Wrinkles
• Fine lines
• Uneven skin tone
• Large pores
• Stretch marks

The procedure is most commonly performed on the face, but it can also be used on other areas of the body. Microneedling helps to smooth, firm, and tone the skin, giving it a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. It can also improve the effectiveness of skincare products, as the microchannels created allow active ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin.

While generally safe, it is essential to have the treatment performed by a licensed professional to avoid complications and achieve the best results.

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that generally requires little to no downtime, making it a popular choice for those looking to improve their skin without long recovery periods.

• Safety: It is considered safe for most individuals in overall good health. However, those with certain conditions or using specific acne medications, such as isotretinoin, may need to avoid microneedling. It's also not recommended for people with active acne or moderate to severe psoriasis or eczema.
• Post-treatment Effects: After the procedure, it's normal to experience some minor redness and irritation, which typically lasts a few days as the skin heals. This is part of the body's natural response to the micro-injuries created during the treatment.

It’s essential to consult with a licensed professional before undergoing microneedling to ensure it's appropriate for your skin type and condition.

Each microneedling session typically lasts around 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area.

• Qualified Professionals: It's important to have the procedure done by a qualified professional, such as a board-certified dermatologist, plastic surgeon, or cosmetic surgeon. In some regions, an aesthetician can also perform microneedling, provided they are supervised by a physician.
• Multiple Sessions: For optimal results, multiple treatments may be required, typically spaced several weeks apart. The number of sessions needed will depend on your skin concerns and the desired outcome.

Microneedling can help improve a variety of skin concerns, including:

• Scars: Helps reduce the appearance of scars, including acne scars.
• Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Can smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, promoting a more youthful appearance.
