Say hello to smoother hands...

Hands are one of the most common parts of the body that rapidly age as they are always overworked. Aside from natural aging, old hands can be due to the fact that they are always exposed to different hand damaging factors. These factors affect our hands, and they gradually lose fat and elasticity that makes the skin on hands lose volume. This reduced volume and decreased elasticity produce translucent skin that wrinkles and develops age spots that can be pigmented. To treat this, we often use laser skin resurfacing, laser hyperpigmentation treatment, dermal fillers, biorevitalization, and use Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP).

How does it work? This non ablative fractional technology uses microbeams of energy to create areas of affected tissue that extend through the epidermis into the dermis. This triggers the body’s natural healing process to create new, healthy collagen. What results can I expect? You will have an improvement in both tone and texture, resulting in younger looking skin. Treatment plans can be adjusted to fit everyone’s lifestyle – speak to your provider regarding desired downtime, comfort, and results. Best for: skin tightening and long-term anti-ageing

Laser skin resurfacing is the gold standard therapy for skin smoothing and tightening. This non ablative fractional technology uses microbeams of energy to create areas of affected tissue that extend through the epidermis into the dermis. This triggers the body’s natural healing process to create new, healthy collagen. Best for: facial anti-ageing and resurfacing What is Laser resurfacing? Laser skin resurfacing has long been established as a safe and effective treatment for acne scars, traumatic scars, pigmentation, sun damage, enlarged pores, fine lines, uneven skin texture and stretch-marks. The principle of skin resurfacing is to stimulate the skin’s natural healing process to replace damaged skin with fresh, healthy, new skin. How does laser resurfacing work?

What is Hyperpigmentation? The upper layers of the skin contain pigment cells called melanocytes. They produce pigment called melanin that is then distributed evenly throughout the epidermis to give the natural colouration of the skin. In response to trauma, inflammation, sun exposure, hormones and as a result of genetics, pigment can be over-produced and form ‘clumps’ that look like areas of darker discolouration or ‘hyperpigmentation’. There are a number of different types of hyperpigmentation; common types include: freckles, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, sun damage and melasma.  Laser is a safe and effective solution to treat hyperpigmentation. There are usually two types of lasers used in treating hyperpigmentation: ablative and non-ablative lasers. Ablative lasers are stronger, and they involve removing layers of your skin and rejuvenating the skin by resurfacing its upper layers, enabling new skin to form while simultaneously stimulating the development of collagen. Non-ablative procedures, on the other hand just target the dermis to stimulate collagen growth and produce tightening effects. They both work as they replenish the skin to the healthy condition and shatter pigment particles, effectively lightening areas of concern.
