Until now hair had to be treated during the growing phase (20%-30% depending on the area) Since growth cycles vary, approx. 6-10 treatments are usually necessary.

Skin is more sensitive in some areas of the body than in others and redness can occur as a side effect. It should disappear in a matter of hours but could potentially be as intense as sunburn lasting a few days.

It usually takes 2 to 3 weeks before the hair is actually shed.

A 2 to 3 week touch-up is neither safe nor effective. Some laser hair removal centers may offer a complementary touch-up at the 2 weeks marker, but this is not a safe practice. We space each laser hair removal treatment approximately 4 to 8 weeks apart depending on individual's hair density, hair growth cycle as well as the factors of hair growth. Laser hair removal done too soon is not only ineffective, it can also put the skin at risk for burning or scarring.

The HydraFacial treatment is designed for all skin types. Even the most sensitive skin easily tolerates the HydraFacial treatment.

A series of 6 treatments is recommended for improving the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, acne and oily skin. After your first series of treatments, you may want to maintain your results with a HydraFacial treatment every 2 to 4 weeks.

In essence, our corrector Peel Facial removing dead skin cells and stimulating the growth of new ones. “There are three types of chemical peels: superficial ones that work on the surface and target the outer, dead layer of skin cells and medium or deep peels that go further into the epidermis for deeper resurfacing action,” Regardless of depth, they all work in the same way—breaking down the “glue” that binds our skin dead cells together. This allows the unnecessary upper layers to be whisked away, leaving the new-before-seen skin to shine through.

Superficial chemical peels can be used to reduce the appearance of fine lines, even skin tone, improve pigmentation and treat acne while deeper peels can also stimulate collagen production. The normal rate of skin cell turnover is between 21 and 28 days, and this rate tends to slow down dramatically in our late 20s. Superficial Corrector Peels help to increase this cellular turnover in the form of exfoliation and to stimulate healthy cell growth.

The only people who shouldn’t touch peels with a glycolic or lactic acid are those who have allergies to the ingredients included or have inflamed and active skin diseases — everyone else can benefit from a good cleanse and polish.

Again, it depends on the type of peel. We have it’s light and superficial that you might find your skin looks perfectly fine post-treatment. A medium peel might take a week to heal while a deeper peel could take up to a 2 weeks for downtime. Post-treatment mask sheet that include excellent source of collagen and vitamin c & E masks are being developed to soothe soreness, flood skin with moisture and enhance the healing process after treatment. They can also help reduce inflammation and prevent pigmentation.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is light therapy that involves shining highly concentrated and intense beams of light intermittently on the surface of the skin. The pulses of light target pigment and vascular irregularities, smoothing out the skin’s tone and texture. IPL therapy helps to reduce the effects of aging, leaving clients with younger, clearer, and healthier-looking skin. When performed correctly by a certified, experienced technician, IPL Photofacial therapy is both safe and effective. As a professional skin-care clinic, we will not perform any procedures without first assessing: your complete medical history; your current health condition; and any potential you may have for complications. Additionally, we provide all clients with protective eyewear that must be worn during treatment.

Most patients liken IPL to the gentle snap of an elastic band against the skin. Others experience it as a very short pinprick. While no anesthetic is required, we do cool the skin, which helps to minimize any discomfort.

The darkened area typically begins to fade in 2 - 3 weeks. This is when you'll also begin to notice that many superficial brown spots around the treated area are becoming lighter, and less noticeable.

By definition, IPL therapy involves short, intense pulses of light being delivered to the skin. As a result, you may experience small raised bumps and redness in the treatment area shortly after your treatment. This will subside in a few days and is no cause for alarm.

A typical treatment can last anywhere from 40- 50 minutes including skin care with red light therapy after IPL photofacial to treat your skin to heal more quickly.

Only those with lighter skin colors are good candidates for this treatment, such as white and untanned skin type. As it treats very superficially and can sometimes be unsafe for those with light brown to very dark skin type.

A dermal filler is an injectable, biocompatible gel used to help fill in facial wrinkles, restore volume loss, and augment facial features for a smooth, youthful appearance. The gel is comprised of cross-linked Hyaluronic Acid.

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a natural substance found in all human skin. Thus, HA injections are biocompatible (does not harm the body) and biodegradable (broken down by the body). These products are injectected into the skin or deeper tissues to help correct skin depressions such as creases, wrinkles, folds, scars, degenerative skin aging, and restore lost facial volume due to facial lipoatrophy (loss of fat).

Botox, Xeomin, and Dysport® are the trademark for neuromodulators with the same active component. At our clinic, we chose Dysport® as out go-to neuromodulator, however, upon clients' request, we can also provide treatment with Botox TM or Xeomin TM as well. We chose Dysport® because it has faster on-set and may last longer based on studies and our experience. Studies also suggest that regular Dysport® treatments not ony make you look younger while in effect, but may prevent a further deepening of dynamic lines and wrinkles over time, thus helping to delay the aging process. To learn more about this popular wrinkle treatment, please call our office to book a consultation with our doctors. Our physicians are experienced injectors who are known for creating a natural appearnce for you to look younger and more beautiful.

Dysport® is one of the treademark for neuromodulators that has been used for cosmetic purposes in North America since the late 1990's. it is designed to relax facial muscles to treat wrinkles. When a small amount of neuromodulator is injected into a muscle, it works by inhibiting nerve signals that act to contract muscles. This in turn causes the lines and wrinkles to diminish. It is by far the most popular cosmetic procedure that is highly effective, non-invasive and with no downtime.
