Acne and Pores

ALA/PDT

ALA is a substance that occurs naturally in the body but when applied it works as a photosensitizing agent which helps the skin become more receptive to light.

ALA/PDT treatment needs at least 3 sessions to see great results and works on Acne.

Fraxel Laser

Fraxel laser treatment uses microscopic lasers that penetrate deep into your skin and helps to trigger and speed up your body’s natural collagen production. The fraxel laser only treats a tiny section of tissue at a time which allows the skin to heal very quickly.

  • The laser works from the inside out to stimulate the growth of new and healthy skin cells.
  • Numbing cream is applied for about 45 minutes prior to the procedure and the procedure itself takes between 10-15 minutes.
  • Results are usually visible after the second session.
  • Only mild discomfort feeling
  • Works for acne scars and pore reduction

Infini

INFINI is a device that utilizes RF energy and micro-needling in order to penetrate multiple layers of the skin. As the needle penetrates the skin, RF is released inside the dermis, this generates heat which then makes collagen fibers shrink and tighten. INFINI is a non-invasive treatment that will help the body stimulate its own natural collagen production.

  • Numbing cream is applied and the process lasts just a few minutes.
  • Only mild discomfort feeling
  • Works for acne scarring, elasticity, wrinkles, pores

I2PL

2nd generation intense pulsed light, or I2PL, is the upgrade in technology from the standard IPL. This laser utilizes diversified yet powerful wavelengths to treat an array of dermatological problems. The machine releases short bursts of light which safely targets the problem area on the skin.

  • Depending on personal pain threshold an IPL treatment could be mildly uncomfortable, but the treatment only lasts a few minutes.
  • Works for acne, acne scars, wrinkles and pores

Anti-Aging

CO2 Laser (Smartxide)

As the name suggests, a CO2 laser uses carbon dioxide that reacts with the moisture in skin tissue. Co2 lasers generally have low reflection and scattering and so can focus energy on the target area without damaging the skin.

  • Pain is usually minimal for CO2 laser treatment but will vary from person to person. And likewise, downtime will also depend on the person.
  • Works well for moles, age spots, warts and corns.

Ulthera

Ulthera is a newly developed, high intensity ultrasound laser, used for treating wrinkles. Ultherapy is a non-incision procedure that helps effectively treat wrinkles by lifting the skin.

  • Ulthera delivers ultrasonic heat at a depth of between 2-4.5mm under the surface of the skin.
  • Good for lifting, skin elasticity, wrinkle improvement and collagen generation

Thermage

Thermage is a laser procedure used to lift up sagging skin and increase facial resilience, by promoting contraction and regeneration of collagen fiber. It does this by stimulating the dermal layer deep in the skin with strong radiofrequency heat.

  • Good for lifting, skin elasticity, wrinkle improvement and collagen generation
  • Good for lifting, lipolysis, wrinkle improvement.

Doublo

The Doublo can be seen as the mini Ulthera. The Duoblo is a non-surgical face lifting procedure for the SMAS layer in the face. Duoblo is an effective laser procedure used to maintain results after an Ulthera treatment.

  • Doublo helps firm sagging skin, and also promotes regeneration of collagen in order to reduce wrinkle lines.
  • Good for lifting, lipolysis, wrinkle improvement.

Comfort Dual

Comfort dual is also seen as an alternative light version of Ulthera. It helps promote collagen by using a frequency bipolar laser that utilizes two electrodes.

  • Good for lifting, elasticity, wrinkle improvement and pore reduction.

Quick Lifting

Quick lifting is a popular procedure for people looking to target a specific area such as the area next to the mouth or cheeks. Quick lifting is swift and can be done easily when you have a free hour in your day.

  • Good for nasolabial fold and cheeks.

Water-drop Lifting

Water drop lifting helps turn the skin lucid and moist immediately after the procedure. The LDM machine pulls up moisture from the dermal layer of the skin by using irradiating crisscrossed ultrasonic waves.

  • Water drop lifting lifts and tightens at the same time.

Skin Tone and Whitening

New V beam

A V-Beam is a pulsed dye laser that has dual wavelengths and targets blood vessels in our skin. V-beam is the ideal laser for people who have problems with redness on their face.

Toning Laser

Laser toning is the preferred method used to target freckles on the skin. The laser is a high-output Q-switched ND-YAG laser. It fired deep into the dermal layer to remove melanin pigment. The main reason for the popularity of laser toning is that it has virtually no side effects and down time is minimal. It can also treat scarring and pigment unevenness simultaneously.

  • Works for melasma, blemishes, skin tone and pore tightening.

Pico Toning

Pico toning is another laser toning method that works by using light at a wavelength of 755nm. The Pico laser allows for dramatic results with even fewer sessions than a conventional laser. The Pico laser will treat pigmentation problems and also provide the skin with vitality and elasticity.
