Harmony Pixel Laser Resurfacing
Pixel laser resurfacing is designed to improve the skin's surface and texture by stimulating the production of collagen. It offers effective skin resurfacing that is both convenient and comfortable. The Harmony Pixel Laser is used to treat wrinkles, scars, superficial skin lesions and is effective for skin resurfacing. Skin resurfacing with the Harmony Pixel Laser is gradual with complete results being typically seen after three to five sessions at two to four week intervals.
Microdermabrasion / Crystal Peeling
Microdermabrasion is a safe, gentle skin resurfacing procedure for all skin types, with almost no side effects. Repeated treatments yield excellent results for scar revision, sun damage, textural irregularities, aging skin and melasma. Microdermabrasion uses fine streams of crystals to exfoliate tiny pin dots of skin from the skin's surface, which are hygienically vacuumed away. As the crystals strike the skin at a very high velocity, a small particle of skin is removed, forcing the skin to replace this 'dot' of skin that was exfoliated, with new younger cells. This process encourages new collagen and elastin to form, smoothing and refining skin texture. The effects are a superficial skin polishing with no heat, bruising or swelling.
IONTOSONIC Whitening Treatment
This treatment uses ultrasonic waves traveling between the epidermis and the dermis increase the penetration rate of substances (mainly vitamin C) into the skin by 30-40 times. By penetrating ionized vitamin C deep into the skin, it breaks down the accumulation of melanin pigments, the cause of liver spots and freckles, and prevents them from forming. This treatment can also be used in conjuction with various vitamin ampoules to increase your skin’s absorption of these essential vitamins.
