Skin Treatments We Provide

Veinwave™

Veinwave™ uses a technique called 'thermo-coagulation' which is able to reduce thread veins. A very fine needle passes a high frequency current into the vein, the heat causes the vein and its contents to collapse, and the vein disappears.

Sometimes, Veinwave™ treatment may leave a small micro-crust (scratch) that will disappear after a few days. The treatment can be carried out at any time of the year and on all skin types.

Dermabrasion

Dermabrasion is a non invasive, non-surgical procedure which uses a highly controlled spray of fine crystals to remove the outer layer of skin and reveal the younger, tighter, and more radiant skin underneath.

It is suitable for blackheads, acne, oily skin, some scarring, sun-damaged skin and superficial age spots. It can be combined with special acid peels for a deeper treatment. After treatment the face will look a little flushed and there is little or no down time.

Dermal Fillers

There are quite literally hundreds of dermal fillers available. Most are biodegradable products which contain hyaluronic acid which is found in all of the cells in our body. It is a sugar and water solution which breaks down naturally.

They are the treatment of choice for age related lines and wrinkles and they work by supporting the line or wrinkle. Their longevity depends upon injection technique, the amount of product used, skin texture, its movement at the injection site, and metabolic rate.

Microsclerotherapy

Microsclerotherapy is 60 - 80% effective. A small amount of an irritant solution is injected into the thread veins which displaces the blood within the vein. It also irritates the vein making it swell and close, thus stopping blood from re-entering it. Treated veins may disappear within two weeks to two months.

More than one treatment is usually needed, although most thread veins can be treated over a course of three to four sessions.

Topical Skin Care

Good skin care tailored to peoples' needs is fundamental to reducing the formation of lines and wrinkles as 90% skin damage is caused by the sun and environment. Good skin care including a topical sunblock can help reverse the signs of ageing. Other useful ingredients of creams include vitamins A, C and E to counteract free radical damage as well as glycolic acid to aid cell turnover.
