Intense Pulse Light (IPL)
Intense Pulsed Light offers a breakthrough treatment for signs of ageing by sun damage, such as brown spots (pigmentation), redness (thread veins) and poor skin texture (collagen).
Pulsed light can help remove brown and red areas and stimulate production of new collagen. It is particularly effective when combined with other clinic treatments such as chemical peels or microdermabrasion.

TCA Skin Peels (medium Peels)
A medium peel works in the same way as a mild peel but it simply peels to a deeper level so is suitable for treatment of deeper lines and wrinkles. You can expect some mild swelling and some light peeling (similar to mild sunburn) for 3-5 days.
The Easy TCA Skin Peel is designed to be used to help fight the most noticeable signs of photoageing, such as little lines and dry, uneven skin colour-tone. The peels are applied, one week apart and four skin peels are required.
The Easy TCA Skin Peel can also be used to treat acne and acne scarring, and areas on the hands, forearms, neck and décolletage.

Dermaroller™
Dermaroller™ Therapy can help improve the appearance of:
- Acne scars
- Aged and sun damaged skin
- Facial and décolleté lines and wrinkles
- Stretch marks
Dermaroller™ Therapy provides advanced micro-medical skin-needling, a procedure that aids stimulating the skin to regenerate and repair itself naturally and safely, creating smoother, brighter, healthier, younger-looking skin.
Your practitioner will use a Dermaroller™ medical device to produce thousands of micro-medical needle-columns in the skin. Each column will penetrate into the dermis of the skin and will be approximately 0.1mm in width. The column will close rapidly enabling the skin to recover quickly – often in the same day. Your practitioner will use a topical anaesthetic to numb the skin making the procedure comfortable; it will normally take up to 30 minutes for the topical anaesthetic to work and 20 – 30 minutes for the Dermaroller™ Therapy procedure.
After a Dermaroller™ Therapy procedure your body may start to naturally regenerate and repair the skin, working below the surface in the dermis. This takes time as new collagen is formed, new skin cells are generated and blood supply is enhanced. It can take up to 6 weeks before visible signs of regeneration and repair are seen and the process will continue over the following months, and help provide you with a natural enhancement.
Your practitioner will normally recommend that your Dermaroller™ Therapy consists of a series of 2 – 3 Dermaroller™ procedures with approximately 6 weeks between them.
In the treatment of acne scars and other types of scarring it may be necessary for your practitioner to extend your Dermaroller™ Therapy.
