Treatments for Acne PDF Print E-mail
Acne can affect the skin at any age or stage of life. Our therapists will assess the skin and recommend the best treatment, depending on the skin type and life stage. Treatments include deep cleansing and excess sebum control. Our therapists are also able to advise you on proper eating regimes to minimise the effects of acne, highlighting which foods to avoid.

Classic facial

The classic facial is the basis for all treatments and is our introduction to your skin. During the facial we can assess the needs of your skin and from there make further recommendations. The classic facial is also a good maintenance treatment.

Deep cleansing and regeneration facial (Mini Lift)

Imported from Amsterdam, this treatment uses a stabilised Aloe Vera based product which draws all the impurities in the skin to the surface, while the soothing effect of Aloe helps improve circulation, hydration and skin tone. The magic of Aloe Vera not only purifies but regenerates skin by stimulating circulation and promoting cellular renewal. Deep cleansing of congested follicles, comedones, blackheads and milia improves the appearance of capillaries, skin tone and texture and is also effective in the treatment of acne. This treatment is also a mini lift that gently removes the dead skin cells, revealing new healthy cells and improving the appearance of sluggish skin. Cellular renewal is accelerated, resulting in a more youthful and radiant look.

ELOS - Syneron eStyle skin tightening and texture improvement

ELOS rejuvenates and tightens skin to reveal the fresher more refined look you deserve. It excites the cells responsible for rebuilding collagen and elastin; smoothing out fine lines, softening wrinkles and improving overall skin texture. It safely and effectively repairs sun-damage, eliminates age spots, spider veins, tones your skin making it look and feel years younger. It is also effective in the treatment of pigmentation lesions, vascular lesions and acne scarring.

IPL

IPL regenerates and promotes collagen and elastin production, rejuvenating skin, tightening and toning. It stimulates fibroblasts and is effective in the treatment of acne as well as used for hair removal.


Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is the mechanical and controlled removal of the most superficial layers of the skin. A jet of micro-crystals is propelled across the skin's surface, producing a soft exfoliation of the corneous and granular layers of the skin that allows for better active-ingredient penetration. This results in cellular regeneration and an increase in collagen production improving skin elasticity and tone. This new science in skincare is also used to minimise acne scarring, surgical scars and smooth wrinkles reversing the signs of ageing.

OptiPhi Peel

OptiPhi Peel is a Glycolic Acid Peel suitable for all skin types and needs no down time. Glycolic Acid stimulates cellular activity, improves the appearance if sun-damage, and improves elasticity and firmness of the skin. Glycolic Acid increases the synthesis of collagen and has a rejuvenating effect in the skin. OptiPhi Peel reduces fine lines and wrinkles and improves the overall skin texture. It promotes cell turnover (shedding of dead skin cells and the regrowth of new cells) to reveal a smoother, brighter complexion.

VI Peel

A synergistic blend of gentle yet powerful ingredients, the VI Peel is the next generation aesthetic. Suitable for all skin types, adult and adolescent skin problems. The VI Peel is painless yet produces dramatic visible results in just days with little down time. It tackles skin problems at the cellular level rather than just burning skin off. Designed to reverse the signs of aging and sun damage the VI Peel helps erase fine lines and wrinkles, shrinks enlarged pores and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin for firmer skin. The VI Peel helps to remove precancerous cells and is extremely effective in practically eliminating hyper pigmentation including melasma; the most difficult pigmentation issue to address.
