DERMAPLANING
Dermaplaning is skin rejuvenation at its finest, this 21st century treatment is better known as a luxury shave and will remove all dead skin from the face, body and cleans the surface of the skin through exfoliation that tightens and firms the skin also will remove any unwanted light facial hair.
Superficial exfoliation facials remove skin through a portion of the epidermal layer. These are the "refreshing" forms of ‘lunch time facials’. It is a method of exfoliation that consists of using a 10-gauge scalpel to gently scrape off the top layer of dulling dead skin cells in order to reveal a smoother, brighter complexion.
To cut it short and sweet it is a luxury facial shaving device that removes dead skin and is a painless procedure.
This is a great treatment if you are pregnant or nursing and want exfoliation without the risk of harsh chemicals absorbing into the blood stream and potentially harming your baby.
Dermaplaning is fantastic as a pre-treatment before offering such things as collagen induction therapy or forms of peels as this will exfoliate the skin and remove dead cells ready for that fresh layer to be treated.
MICRO NEEDLING
Micro-needling is a safe, chemical-free and minimally invasive technique for stimulating collagen production.
Collagen and elastin give skin its texture, structure and appearance.
As we age, these compounds break down from sun and environmental damage leading to dry, thin and wrinkled skin.
Micro-needling is a mechanical method for reversing this breakdown. This cosmetic procedure that involves repeatedly puncturing the skin with tiny, sterile needles on a rolling pin to cause tiny punctures in the skin. By creating a wound these small contact points encourage the body to induce the healing response by producing collagen and renewing the skin cells.
MICRODERMABRASION
Microdermabrasion treatment uses a stream of Diamond Tip crystals to remove your skins outermost layers of dead cells targeting specific zones leaving you with new and improved complexion.
It's chemical free, non-invasive yet achieves amazing results revealing younger, healthier looking skin from the very first treatment. The skins appearance is further improved through increased collagen & elastin production as your body produces a new layer of skin.
Microdermabrasion has been shown to diminish fine lines, wrinkles, shallow acne scars, resurface the skin and stimulate the blood flow, encouraging the skin to rejuvenate itself and produce collagen and elastin.
It can help with unclogging and minimising pores, decreases the appearance of superficial hyperpigmentation, age spots and other superficial skin damage caused by the sun.
Removing dead skin through microdermabrasion can aid in the penetration of skincare products by up to 50% and with a more even surface to work with, it allows makeup to go on more smoothly.
It stimulates blood flow, which increases the nutrition delivered to skin cells. This improves cell production, which improves skin’s elasticity and texture.
The best results are usually seen within 3 sessions , to achieve long lasting effect a series of 6–10 treatments is usually recommended.
CHEMICAL PEELS
Chemical Peels remove dead skin and toxins from the face and clean the surface of the skin through exfoliation that tightens and firms the skin.
These advanced Facial treatments help to improve and restore circulation to facial skin layers, increasing the flow of oxygen-enriched blood to skin cells.
They can also help with reducing the appearance of very mild blotchy skin discolouration, remnant acne discolouration and help to cleanse the pores.

There are different types of acid peels
Lactic acid - offers gentler exfoliation compared with Glycolic acid and can target uneven skin tone and textual irregularities. This skin regenerating peel will not only stimulate cell regeneration but will improve overall skin texture and improve the skin's ability to attract and retain moisture.
Lactic acid has been known to help with the following conditions:
- ❖ Acne including Black Heads

Glycolic acid - Glycolic Acid with the Skin DNA peel. This peel will effectively exfoliate dirt and actively dissolve the bonds that hold dead skin build up and in return reveal a healthy glow. This active Glycolic skin peel will slough away dead skin and target dull, congested and mature skin whilst visibly improving firmness and reveal radiance over time whilst at the same time targeting common skin problems such as (but not limited to) fine lines, post acne scarring, acne and blackheads. Reveal brighter, firmer and more youthful looking skin.
Glycolic Acid is an Alpha hydroxy acid which performs at the base of the stratum corneum (the top layers of your skin), dissolving the ‘glue’ that holds dead skin cells together. Because this increases cell turnover, skin becomes smoother, more elastic and more even in tone and texture.
At the same time Glycolic Acid also stimulates your skin to produce more collagen. Collagen is the main structural protein of the skin and keeps it elastic and line free; when this starts to disintegrate, skin begins to sag and wrinkle. Replacing the collagen your skin has lost with age can help diminish crow’s feet around the eyes, frown lines, and vertical lines around the lips.
Glycolic Acid has been known to help the following conditions:
- ❖Acne
- ❖Sun damaged skin
- ❖Enlarged Pores
- ❖Blotchy pigmentation
- ❖Hyperpigmentation (this product won't help chloasma, melasma or vitiligo)
