Advanced Electrolysis for Skin Blemishes

Advanced electrolysis (also known as Advanced Cosmetic Procedure or short-wave diathermy) is a safe, effective method that uses a tiny electrical current and ultra-fine probe to cauterise or destroy minor skin imperfections.

What It Treats

• Skin tags: Cauterized and removed instantly.
• Thread veins / telangiectasia: Broken facial capillaries that fade over a few weeks.
• Milia: Tiny white cysts broken down by the current.
• Cherry angiomas (blood spots): Cauterized cleanly.
• Warts and verrucas: Treated to stimulate an immune response against the virus.
• Other lesions: Age spots, seborrhoeic keratosis, and sebaceous cysts

Dermaplaning is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a specialized surgical blade to gently scrape away dead skin cells and fine facial hair.

Here are 5 key reasons to consider dermaplaning:

• Instantly Smoother Skin: By removing the outermost layer of dead skin and vellus hair (peach fuzz), the treatment leaves your face feeling silky-smooth. This creates an even canvas that allows makeup to glide on seamlessly without clinging to dry patches or fine hair.

• A Radiant, Healthy Glow: Sloughing off dull, dead skin cells instantly reveals the fresh, luminous skin underneath. It revitalizes a tired complexion and provides a natural, healthy radiance with zero downtime.

• Enhanced Product Absorption: With the physical barrier of dead skin and peach fuzz removed, your skincare products—like hydrating serums, Vitamin C, and moisturizers—can pe*****te much deeper into the skin layers. This maximizes the effectiveness of your daily routine.

• Softens Fine Lines and Superficial Scars: The deep exfoliation accelerates cell turnover, which can help soften the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and shallow acne scars over time.

• Painless with No Recovery Time: Unlike chemical peels or aggressive lasers, dermaplaning is completely non-invasive and painless. There is no required recovery or healing downtime, making it a quick lunchtime treatment you can do before an event.

Lip Blush: Before, After and Healed

Laser Treatment Session is here!

Our IPL Laser facials use targeted light energy to create a controlled response in the skin, clearing visible discoloration and supporting collagen remodeling over time.

Different lasers do that work in different ways. Non-ablative options warm the dermis without removing the surface, which can refine texture, soften early lines, and improve overall clarity with minimal interruption.

Resurfacing treatments remove a thin layer of damaged surface skin or treat the skin in tiny micro-zones, which encourages faster renewal while leaving surrounding skin intact. Results continue to build as the pigment clears and collagen reorganises in the weeks that follow.

From November we will also be offering HIFU. A HIFU facial is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that uses ultrasound energy to tighten skin and stimulate natural collagen production. It serves as a popular, non-surgical alternative to a facelift.

How It WorksDeep Targeting: The device sends focused ultrasound waves deep beneath the skin surface.

SMAS Layer: It reaches the foundational SMAS layer (the same tissue adjusted during traditional face surgery).

Collagen Boost: The heat creates microscopic tissue changes. This triggers the body to produce fresh collagen and elastin.

Firming Action: Skin gradually lifts, tightens, and firms over the following two to three months.
