Medical grade equipment for your aesthetic concerns – including stretch marks!

Stretch marks…

We have seen a recent surge in patients wishing to improve the appearance of stretch marks.

Striae, better known as stretch marks, are most commonly thought of in association with pregnancy but they can also be common in adolescence and can effect both genders.

The marks are generally associated with various changes in the body including:

An increase in hormone production
Excessive weight gain
A growth spurt usually in adolescence

Laser stretch mark treatment is a non-surgical treatment that uses pulses of fractional light to break down stretch marks and improve the appearance of your skin. A course of 4-6 treatments is recommended spaced 4-6 weeks apart.

Our Anti-Wrinkle Injections Help Create A Flawless Appearance

Our Anti-Wrinkle Injections Help Create A Flawless Appearance

Achieve a flawless appearance

Anti-wrinkle injections simply relax your muscles preventing the skin from creasing. This means the wrinkles are kept at bay and you achieve a flawless appearance without looking ‘done’.

The best age to start Anti-wrinkle injections is when you begin to notice that your dynamic lines (frown lines) have become static, this is often from your early 30’s.

Anti-wrinkle injections are for women and men

Although many of our customers are female, we are also treating an increasing number of men, and a fair amount are getting what we like to call “Bro-tox”. Our typical profile of the males we treat are professional workers who work long hours, are quite successful, often have little sleep and are in competitive work environments where they feel appearing fresh, energetic and youthful could enhance their career prospects.

A new revolutionary procedure in non-surgical lifting – Silhouette Soft

The aging process involves various dimensions. Each one needs a specific anti-aging treatment. Expression wrinkles are treatable with Botox. Fat resorption/ volume loss are treatable with HA fillers. Sagging tissues used to be only treatable surgically. Resorbable threads made a revolution in non-surgical aesthetics & offer nowadays a new alternative to treat saggy areas in the face and body without undergoing the hassle of a surgery, with minimal downtime and almost zero pain.

Dr Kinsella - Silhouette Soft

How does it work?

ThreadLifting is a medical aesthetic technique that produces visible lifting effects.

  • Threads work on sagging tissues of the face & body.
  • The technique is atraumatic and consists of inserting needles of different length and size that release a resorbable thread inside the skin.
  • Sutures are carried out either with a polymer of caprolacton – PDO or with Poly-L-Lactic acid, both extremely safe & made to last for about 15/24 months.
  • It is possible to see some immediate results right after insertion. However, the revitalising/lifting effect begins 45/60 days following the procedure.
  • After thread resorption, the lifting effect does not disappear thanks to the fibrous reaction and collagen begins production induced by the barbed thread.

What makes threads extremely efficient & safe in tissue lifting?

  • The resorption of the thread is an Hydrolitic Enzymatical Process;
  • Absolutely not allergenic;
  • Threads are mainly done with PDO or Poly-L-Lactic acid, both safe and similar to material used in sutures, widely used in surgery.
  • Effectiveness of result lasts for around two years and technique is perfectly renewable.

Threads have best lifting action induced by a double mechanism

Mechanique Traction and tightening of tissues. Moreover, they offer tissue Endogenous Biostimulation: After insertion, threads promote collagen and elastine production+Neoangiogenesis (Build-up of new tissues).

What are main advantages/uses of threads?

  • Full face definition: wrinkles, jawline, neck cleavage, chin, lower face, cheek sharpening / lifting.
  • Browlift.
  • Face rejuvenation.
  • Body definition: Many body areas are now treatable with revolutionary body threads: Breasts, arms, abdomen, knees, thighs. These are mainly indicated for people who have experienced a dramatic weight loss (i.e after a bariatric surgery). In that case threads are extremely useful for the tummy, thighs, breasts & arms. Threads are also extremely used for women after childbirth (tummy lift).

PhiBrows Microblading

PhiBrows

What is PhiBrows Microblading?

PhiBrows Microblading is a manual ‘hand’ method of semi-permanent cosmetics for your eyebrows which creates extremely fine natural looking hair strokes. The aim of the PhiBrows technique is to create the perfect brow so that no one would detect you had undergone a semi-permanent treatment.

The Result: Natural looking, thicker, fuller brows.

How does it work?

Pigment is applied with a specific PhiBrows tool that has a row of several fine needles to create thin hair like marks in the skin. A very natural result is achieved as the hairs are bladed into the skin according to the natural hair growth direction.

CAUTION: Keep brows away from water for 2 weeks following treatment.

A top-up treatment will be required after 4-6 weeks.
