We all know and loath the dryness of the air and subsequent dryness of the skin, that comes with winter. Luckily we don’t have to live with it. Juvederm Hydrate restores and replenishes depleted levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin. With increasing age, the body’s natural ability to create and maintain volume and elasticity slows down, and the skin looks old and lacklustre as a result of this. Boost your skin’s natural tone, glow and elasticity with Juvederm Hydrate for younger looking, beautiful skin.
Superficial skin peels do wonders for resurfacing the skin and preparing it for hydration with mesotherapy. While the light chemical peel gets rid of dry, dead skin cells, mesotherapy feeds and nourishes the epidermis with nutrients and anti-oxidants, leaving the skin glowing, healthy and hydrated.

FOCUS ON PIGMENTATION

As we say farewell to the sultry days of summer and welcome the cosiness of winter, we have to think about all the time we’ve spent in the sun and the possible consequences for our skin. We might have exposed ourselves to harmful UV rays and now is the time to act and repair possible damage. Our BBL and Cosmelan treatments yield excellent results in the treatment of pigmentation and winter is the ideal time to undergo these treatments and get that flawless complexion back.  

BRING AND END TO WINTER DRYNESS

Yes, there are cosy nights in front of fireplaces and hearty casseroles, but the dry Highveld winter also brings with it dehydration of the skin. Skin peels do wonders for resurfacing the skin and preparing it for hydration with mesotherapy.
The light superficial peel gets rid of dry, dead skin cells, while mesotherapy feeds the epidermis with nutrients and anti-oxidants, leaving the skin healthy and hydrated. Juvederm Hydrate restores and replenishes depleted levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin. Boost your skin’s natural tone, glow and elasticity with Juvederm Hydrate for younger looking, beautiful skin.  

THIS WINTER – RESURFACE, REVIVE, REJUVENATE

Relive your youth and revive your skin with the ultimate anti-ageing treatment – a non-surgical facelift. We have been performing laser resurfacing treatments with increasing success and it remains the ultimate way of regaining a flawless complexion.
Winter is the ideal time to undergo laser treatments as sun exposure is less severe and it’s easier to remain indoors for the few days of down time that’s required. Think about how a once-off treatment can transform you and your life, and then give us a call. It will change your life!!
