ASK THE SKIN AND COSMETIC EXPERT Q, I am 46 years old and have had anti wrinkle injections and they gave my skin a lift, but my skin has always been a bit uneven and the wrinkles are getting worse as I age, do you have any treatments that would help? A, We have several treatment options for you, firstly we do a full skin and medical consult with our highly trained and experienced medi cosmetic nurse. We take photos in our clinic imaging studio which are uploaded to a computer program that helps with selecting the correct treatment for your skin. For some clients it is a case of clearing up the pores with a Derma sweep or Micro- hydra-dermabrasion and starting a skin care regime with some of our amazing products from the Beauty Pacific range. With your skin it may require laser, our Pearl and Pearl Factional Treatment can take years off your skins appearance. The Pearl and Pearl Factional treatments exposes only a fraction of the skins surface to the laser beam in a pattern of tiny dots. Columns of damaged tissue are selectively removed, leaving surrounding skin intact. The new skin is fresher, healthier, less blemished and starts producing more collagen thus smoothing and softening wrinkles. The treatment can improve condition’s like acne scarring, large pores, age spots, sun damage, wrinkles and poor skin texture. There is a period of downtime and staying out of the sun and wearing sunblock is the best way to protect your skin. We have several post treatment appointments which include LED Healite sessions and the package includes skin care products that aid recovery and enhance the result. Q, I’ve heard about PRP skin needling and seen shots of Hollywood celebs all red faced, they say it’s amazing, what does it do as I saw it on your web site? A, The PRP treatment we provide is very unique as we make a serum from your blood. The results are excellent in improving skin tone and texture and slowing the ageing process by using your own cells to improve your skins health.

We start the process by extracting a small amount of blood, much like when you donate to the blood bank. We incubate the blood for 6 hours to increase the potency, then we spin it in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, and finally put it through a special filter to eliminate any bad cells, you are left with a very powerful anti ageing product from your own body. Next we use a needling system that makes tiny holes in your upper dermis for the serum to enter and start doing its work. The package includes four needling sessions with LED Healite post treatment and skin care products to aid recovery and enhance results.
