Frequently Asked Questions

SKINCARE

Facials do more than cleanse your skin, it provides a deep cleanse to remove toxins, bacteria, dead skin cells and unclogs pores. It can also renew skin cells by circulating the blood flow under the skin, which then can decrease puffiness and fluid build up that comes from our lymphatic system, as well as treat skin concerns such as Hyperpigmentation, Acne, Fine lines and Wrinkle, and more. Facials are recommended every 4-6 weeks. 


Note: Our facials are customized to address individual client needs, and the products chosen will be based on the clients skin type and concerns.


WHAT IS DERMAPLANING?

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive treatment in which a scalpel is gently used to manually exfoliate the skin, removing weeks of dead skin cells and vellus hair (peach fuzz).


This treatment is suitable for all skin types and can be done monthly. Those with active acne breakouts, sore/lesions, open wounds and cold sores should not receive this treatment. Also, those who have received botox or fillers should wait at least a week before booking this service. Risk/side effects are rare and may include redness or irritation.

Note: The vellus hair does not grow back thicker or darker.


HYDRADERMABRASION VS MICRODERMABRASION?

Hydradermabrasion also known as Hydrofacial uses a vacuum-based machine that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts and infuses serums for the ultimate hydration. 


Microdermabrasion uses a vacuum tool with a diamond tip to gently sand away dead skin cells using a minimally abrasive instrument, resulting in smoother and brighter skin tone and texture.


Both the Hydradermabrasion and Microdermabrasion treatments can be done 2-4 weeks apart and is suitable for all skin types. Side effects are minimal, may include redness and tenderness, burning or stinging sensation, and/or mild swelling which subside within a few hours to a few days. In rare cases some bruising may occur.

Contraindications:

MICRONEEDLING VS. MESO INFUSION:

Microneedling uses small sterilized needles with a depth ranging from 0.50-2.5 mm to stimulate collagen and elastin, and new skin tissue. 


It requires numbing cream, has a longer down time, and is more suitable for those with moderate to severe concerns. 3-6 Sessions are required and can be done every 4-6 weeks. Healing times can take few days to 1 week but the skin continues to turnover and improve for months after. 


Risk/side effects may include redness and tenderness, a sunburn sensation, bruising, light peeling, tightening and darkening of the skin (this is temporary and will subside). In rare cases scarring, skin infection, or post inflammatory hyperpigmentation can happen (following post care instructions is important)


Contraindications:

Meso Infusion aka Mesotherapy, uses nano needle cartridges that are small raised bumps or silicone points to penetrate the superficial layer of the skin, or we may use low depths needling of 0.25, and also needle-less meso infusion using Electroporation or ultrasound to penetrate the surface of the skin and allow for sterile and pure concentrated ingredients to be pushed deep into the skin, thus effectively treating various conditions.


These options don’t require any numbing (but available upon request), have less down time, 4-6 Sessions are required and can be done every 2-3 weeks. Healing times can take 2-5 days but the skin continues to turnover and improve for weeks to months after, and is more suitable for those with mild to moderate concerns.


Risk/side effects may include redness and tenderness, bruising, itching, light peeling, tightening and darkening of the skin (this is temporary and will subside). In rare cases an allergic reaction, sensitivity, itching or rashes from the concentrated solutions may occur.

BODY CONTOURING

WHAT IS ULTRASOUND CAVITATION?
Ultrasonic or ultrasound cavitation is the use of ultrasound technology to break down fat cells below the skin. It is a non-surgical method of reducing cellulite and localized fat. This procedure involves applying pressure on fat cells through ultrasonic vibrations. The pressure is high enough to make the fat cells break down into a liquid form. The body can then get rid of it as waste through your lymphatic system via the liver. Over the next 72hrs (3 days) the waste will be eliminated through the urine and its imperative that clients drink plenty of water and exercise during the 3 days to aid in the flushing process.


WHAT IS LASER LIPO?
Paddles equipped with laser diodes are placed directly onto the skin. The laser energy penetrates down to the fat cells and creates tiny holes in their membranes. This causes the fat cells to release their stored fatty acids, glycerol, and water into the body and then shrink, potentially resulting in lost inches. The body then flushes out the expelled fat-cell contents via the lymphatic system or burns them for energy.


CAVITATION VS LASER LIPO
Cavitation uses handheld device which directly acts on the skin, penetrates the fat layer, and vibrates the fat cells at such a high frequency that the fat cells actually divide and are destroyed.


Laser Lipo uses laser diodes directly onto the target area which then melts away fat under the skin. It’s also called laser lipolysis.


Ultimately they both break down fat and melt it away, the only difference is that Laser Lipo treatments are hands-free, and Cavitation is a bit stronger and is actively done by a technician for 30 minutes using a handheld device.


IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME?
This procedure is non invasive and non-surgical, there is zero downtime and no pain associated with this procedure. Clients can expect to hear some buzzing/rining in their ears but will adjust to this over time. In rare cases, clients may experience skin redness and irritation, increased thirst, and headaches.


ARE RESULTS PERMANENT?
The results are gradual over a number of weeks as your body clears the broken-down fatty tissues. The results can be long-lasting provided you follow a healthy diet and exercise program.


Results vary depending on individual factors such as health history, age, body type, diet and lifestyle.


HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO I NEED?
The number of treatments required vary depending on body type and individual goals, the recommended amount of treatments is 8-12.

WHAT IS RADIOFREQUENCY?
