Non-surgical cosmetic beauty treatments

As skin ages, it gradually loses natural ingredients like fat, collagen, and hyaluronic acid. This causes the skin to sag over time, and that is why as we get older we develop wrinkles and lines.

Beauty treatments are available that work to replenish the skin's hyaluronic acid, which smoothes out wrinkles and lines and rejuvenates the skin.

IAL

The IAL system is a long-term cosmetic treatment which hydrates the skin and improves its quality. Hyaluronic acid is injected into the skin with a very fine needle, in a criss-cross pattern. This pattern allows the IAL system to smoothly distribute itself across a large area of skin.

Photorejuvenation with Intense Pulsed Light

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)rejuvenates the skin by producing a strong light that is directed at the area to be treated. The light is absorbed by pigmented areas of the skin, which heat up, causing the pigment to break down. It can also collapse unsightly thread veins and stimulates collagen production in the skin to smooth out wrinkles and lines. IPL can be used to eliminate freckles, broken capillaries, rosacea and age spots.

Botox©

Botulinum Toxin (Botox©) reduces wrinkles and lines on the face by suppressing the chemical stimulator that contracts muscles in that area. Botox© is injected into the muscles, causing them to relax for up to six months. This prevents the patient from making certain expressions such as frowning or squinting, which reduces the development of facial lines.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are a facial rejuvenation treatment which contain Hydrafill, a natural hyaluronic acid implant which is injected into the skin. The hyaluronic acid fills and plumps out lines and wrinkles as the product works with the body's own hyaluronic acid to reduce signs of aging.

Radiesse

Radiesse anti-aging treatment is a skin implant which contains calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), a biomaterial which is injected into skin to provide a scaffolding into which the body's own tissue can grow, thereby maintaining the implant in place and smoothing out wrinkles.

Sculptra

Sculptra is an injectable dermal filler containing poly-L-lactic acid, a synthetic product which stimulates the production of collagen in the skin, plumping out the skin of the face from within, having the same effect as a facelift, without the need for surgery.

Glycolic Acid Peel

Glycolic acid is a skin peel treatment derived from sugar cane. Glycolic skin peel works by sloughing off dead skin cells on the surface to stimulate the growth off new healthy skin and make your skin smoother and fresher. Glycolic acid skin peels can also be used to treat acne scarring, skin aging, and skin sun-damage.

TCA EasyPeel

TCA EasyPeel improves the texture of the skin by removing the top layers of skin. By doing this, it improves the texture of the skin, eliminating wrinkles and blotches. TCA EasyPeel can be applied to the face or hands.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Acne Treatment

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) acne treatment uses laser light to gently heat up the lower layers of the skin, stimulating the production of collagen which acts as a foundation for new skin, improving skin tone and reducing the chance of scarring. The light also kills the bacteria within the skin that causes acne.
