Aestheticians always tell clients about the downtime and aftercare before performing any procedures.

  • We provide a variety of laser treatments, including hair removal, skin resurfacing, pigmentation correction, and skin tightening. Our sophisticated laser technology provides precise and effective outcomes with minimal discomfort.

Injectables

  • What are injectables?

  • Injectables are treatments that use drugs like Botox® and dermal fillers to minimize the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and volume loss. They can improve face features and give a more youthful appearance.

  • How long do the effects of injectables last?

  • The duration of effect varies based on the injection utilized. Botox® normally lasts 3-4 months, however dermal fillers can last between 6 months and 2 years. Regular maintenance treatments are recommended to keep the intended results.

  • Are injections painful?

  • Most clients feel no discomfort throughout injectable treatments. We utilize fine needles and can use topical numbing medication to make you more comfortable. Our professional injectors are trained to perform treatments precisely.

Body Contouring

  • What is CoolSculpting®?

  • CoolSculpting® is a non-invasive body slimming procedure that uses controlled freezing to freeze and remove stubborn fat cells. It is an efficient way to target areas that are resistant to diet and exercise, such as the stomach, thighs, and love handles.

  • How many CoolSculpting® sessions are needed?

  • The number of sessions required vary according to the treatment area and your specific goals. Most clients notice results after just one session, although further sessions may be required for best outcomes. During your appointment, our professionals will build a treatment plan that is specific to your needs.

  • Are there any negative effects of CoolSculpting®?

  • CoolSculpting® might cause transient redness, swelling, bruising, and numbness in the treated area. These side effects are typically modest and disappear within a few days to weeks. CoolSculpting® is a safe and effective treatment that requires no downtime, allowing you to continue your typical activities soon afterward.

Skin Rejuvenation

  • What is LED light therapy?

  • LED Light Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that rejuvenates the skin through the use of therapeutic light waves. It reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improves skin tone, and minimizes pore size. The procedure is painless and involves no downtime.

  • How does microneedling work?

  • Microneedling uses fine needles to generate controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This increases the production of collagen and elastin, which promotes skin renewal and reduces the appearance of scars, fine wrinkles, and uneven texture. The procedure is minimally invasive and can be coupled with other therapies to achieve better results.

  • What are the advantages of chemical peels.

  • Chemical peels exfoliate the skin, eliminating dead cells and encouraging the regeneration of new, healthy skin. They can help with the look of acne scars, hyperpigmentation, fine wrinkles, and sun damage. The depth and strength of the peel can be adjusted to meet your specific skin type and concerns.

  • Preparation differs according to the treatment you receive. For most treatments, we prefer that you arrive with a clean face free of makeup and skincare products. To achieve the best possible results, our experts will provide you detailed pre-treatment instructions during your appointment.

  • What may I expect following my treatment?

  • Depending on the sort of therapy you received, you may suffer slight redness, swelling, or irritation. These adverse effects are typically transient and resolve rapidly. We will give you full aftercare recommendations to help you maintain and improve your results. If you have any issues or questions after treatment, our team is always available to help.
