The Carbon Peel, often called the “Hollywood Peel,” is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that refreshes and rejuvenates the skin using a combination of liquid carbon and laser technology. The treatment begins with the application of a thin layer of liquid carbon to the skin. The carbon acts like a magnet, absorbing dirt, oil, and impurities from deep within the pores.

Once the carbon has settled, a laser is passed over the skin. The laser energy is attracted to the carbon particles, allowing it to selectively target debris and dead skin cells without damaging surrounding tissue. The laser also gently heats the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production, which are essential proteins that maintain skin firmness, elasticity, and smoothness.

The dual action of carbon absorption and laser energy delivers multiple benefits:
• Deep pore cleansing: Removes oil, dirt, and dead skin cells for clearer skin
• Skin resurfacing: Improves texture, reduces rough patches, and evens skin tone
• Pore minimisation: Tightens and refines enlarged pores
• Collagen stimulation: Enhances firmness and reduces fine lines for a youthful glow
• Acne and oil control: Helps reduce breakouts by targeting bacteria and excess sebum

Treatment Areas:
The Carbon Peel can be safely performed on multiple areas of the body, including:
• Face
• Neck
• Décolletage
• Back (commonly for acne and congestion)
• Chest
• Shoulders

The Carbon Peel is safe for most skin types, requires little to no downtime, and delivers immediate visible results. It’s an ideal treatment for dull, congested, uneven, or oily skin.

*A patch test is required before any carbon peel treatment

Uneven skin tone, dark spots, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation can affect confidence and make your skin look dull. Skin pigmentation treatment is a safe, non-invasive procedure designed to target areas of excess melanin and restore a more even, radiant complexion.

Using advanced laser technology, the treatment penetrates the skin to break down pigmented cells without harming surrounding tissue. The body’s natural processes then gradually remove these pigment fragments, revealing clearer, brighter, and more even-toned skin over a series of sessions.

Benefits of Skin Pigmentation Treatment:

• Reduces sun spots, age spots, and freckles
• Treats melasma and hyperpigmentation
• Improves overall skin tone and clarity
• Stimulates collagen production for firmer, healthier skin
• Safe for most skin types with 

How it works:

1. The targeted laser energy is applied to pigmented areas.
2. Pigment absorbs the energy and breaks down into smaller particles.
3. The body naturally clears these pigment particles over time.
4. Repeated treatments may be required for optimal results.

This treatment is ideal for anyone looking to brighten their complexion, even out skin tone, and reduce dark spots caused by sun exposure, aging, or hormonal changes. With professional guidance, pigmentation treatment can restore your skin’s natural radiance safely and effectively.

Treatment areas: Face, neck, décolletage, hands, and other sun-exposed areas.

*A patch test is required before any skin pigmentation treatment

Hydrodermabrasion is an advanced, non-invasive skin treatment that combines gentle exfoliation, deep cleansing, and hydration in a single step. It is often referred to as a “wet” alternative to traditional microdermabrasion because it uses water-based technology instead of abrasive crystals or diamond tips.

How It Works:

• A specialized handpiece delivers a pressurized stream of water, oxygen, and  serums to the skin.
• This creates a vortex effect that gently lifts away dead skin cells,  impurities, oil, and debris from the surface of the skin and inside pores.
• Unlike traditional mechanical exfoliation, hydrodermabrasion hydrates the skin while exfoliating, leaving the skin smooth without irritation or redness.

The Science Behind It:

• The vortex technology allows for simultaneous exfoliation and infusion:
  • Exfoliation: Removes the outer layer of dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and improves texture.
  • Infusion: Delivers nourishing serums (e.g., hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, peptides) directly into the freshly exfoliated skin for maximum       absorption.
• By combining these actions, hydrodermabrasion supports cellular turnover, encourages skin renewal, and strengthens the skin barrier.

Benefits:

• Deeply cleansed and clear pores
• Smooth, polished skin texture
• Improved hydration and serum absorption
• Reduction in fine lines, congestion, and uneven skin tone
• Safe and effective for all skin types, including sensitive skin

Is Hydrodermabrasion Pain-Free?

Hydrodermabrasion is a gentle, non-invasive treatment designed to exfoliate, cleanse, and hydrate the skin without discomfort. Unlike traditional microdermabrasion, which uses abrasive crystals or diamond tips to physically buff away dead skin, hydrodermabrasion uses a water-based vortex system. This allows for exfoliation and deep cleansing while simultaneously infusing nourishing serums.

Because the process is hydrating rather than abrasive, most clients describe the sensation as a gentle massage or cool, soothing water flow across the skin. There is no pain, no scraping, and minimal redness, making it safe and comfortable even for sensitive skin.

Result:
Hydrodermabrasion leaves skin instantly refreshed, radiant, and plump, making it an ideal treatment for maintaining healthy, glowing skin or preparing the skin for more advanced therapies like LED, RF, or serums.

OxyGeneo is an advanced, non-invasive facial treatment that combines exfoliation, oxygenation, and nutrient infusion to rejuvenate and refresh the skin. It is designed to improve skin texture, tone, and hydration while targeting signs of aging, dullness, and congestion.

How It Works:
OxyGeneo has three key actions, all delivered in one comfortable treatment:

1. Exfoliation:
   • A  gentle exfoliating gel is applied to remove dead skin cells and  impurities from the surface of the skin.
   • This helps smooth texture, unclog pores, and prepare the skin for nutrient absorption.

1. Oxygenation  (The “Super Oxygenation” Effect):
   • OxyGeneo triggers a natural reaction on the skin that increases oxygen levels at a       cellular level.
   • The treatment creates tiny CO₂ bubbles on the skin, which activate the Bohr effect—a biological response that increases blood flow and delivers more oxygen to skin cells.
   • Result: Skin cells are energized, metabolism is boosted, and the skin can repair and rejuvenate more effectively.

1. Infusion of Nutrients:
   • While the skin is exfoliated and oxygenated, customized serums rich in hyaluronic       acid, peptides, antioxidants, or brightening agents are infused deep into the skin.
   • This ensures maximum absorption of active ingredients, providing hydration, anti-aging benefits, and a radiant glow.

Is OxyGeneo Pain-Free?
Yes! OxyGeneo is completely non-invasive and pain-free. The treatment is gentle on the skin, does not involve needles or harsh abrasion, and is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Most clients describe it as relaxing, often comparing it to a luxurious massage for the face.

Benefits:

• Smooths and brightens the skin
• Increases hydration and elasticity
• Reduces fine lines and improves skin firmness
• Boosts radiance and overall complexion
• Enhances absorption of active serums

Result:
OxyGeneo leaves the skin instantly refreshed, plump, and glowing, making it ideal for a single “pick-me-up” treatment or as part of a multi-step facial for long-lasting rejuvenation.

Radio Frequency (RF) is a non-invasive skin treatment designed to tighten, lift, and rejuvenate the skin by stimulating the body’s natural production of collagen and elastin. RF energy delivers controlled heat into the deeper layers of the skin (the dermis) without damaging the surface, which triggers a natural regenerative response.

How It Works (The Science):

1. Heat Activation:
   • RF energy gently heats the dermal tissue, causing the collagen fibers to contract      and tighten immediately.

1. Collagen  Stimulation:
   • The heat stimulates fibroblast activity, prompting the production of new collagen and elastin over the following weeks.
   • Collagen is the protein responsible for skin firmness, elasticity, and smooth texture.

1. Skin Renewal:
   • The result is improved skin tone, tighter contours, reduction in fine lines, and a more youthful appearance.

Is RF Treatment Pain-Free?
Yes! RF treatments are generally pain-free and comfortable. Most clients feel a gentle warming or tingling sensation on the skin, which is soothing rather than uncomfortable. There’s no need for needles or surgery, and most people tolerate it very well. Occasionally, the skin may feel slightly warm for a few hours after treatment.

Benefits:

• Tightens and firms loose or sagging skin
• Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Improves skin elasticity and texture
• Stimulates  natural collagen production
• Safe for most skin types and areas, including face, neck, and décolletage

Result:
RF treatment leaves the skin looking firmer, smoother, and more youthful. Multiple sessions enhance long-term tightening and rejuvenation, while most clients notice visible improvements after the first treatment.

LED (Light Emitting Diode) therapy is a non-invasive skincare treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to target and improve various skin concerns. Unlike lasers, LED light does not cut, burn, or damage the skin. Instead, it works at a cellular level to stimulate natural processes that rejuvenate and repair the skin.

How LED Therapy Works:

• LED light penetrates the skin without causing pain or heat damage.
• Cells  in the skin absorb the light through molecules called chromophores.
• Absorbed  light energy stimulates ATP (adenosine triphosphate) production, which increases cellular energy.
• This boost in energy accelerates cell repair, collagen and elastin      production, and skin regeneration, improving overall skin health.

Why LED Therapy Works:

• Increases cellular activity and skin metabolism
• Promotes collagen and elastin production for firmer skin
• Reduces  inflammation and helps manage acne
• Improves overall skin tone, texture, and glow

Benefits of LED Therapy:

• Non-invasive and painless
• Suitable for all skin types
• Enhances the results of other facial treatments
• Provides long-term improvements with a course of treatments

Result:
LED therapy leaves skin looking healthier, firmer, brighter, and more rejuvenated—making it a versatile and safe option for anti-aging, acne, and general skin maintenance.

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, making up around 30% of the body’s total protein. It is a key structural component of the skin, bones, muscles, tendons, and connective tissues. In the skin, collagen acts like a support scaffold, giving it firmness, elasticity, and strength.

How Collagen Works in the Skin:

• Collagen fibers form a network in the dermis (the middle layer of skin), supporting the outer layer (epidermis).
• This network maintains the skin’s structure, keeping it plump, smooth, and resilient.
• Collagen works together with elastin, another protein, to allow the skin to  stretch and return to its original shape.

Why Collagen is Important:

• Skin firmness and elasticity: Healthy collagen keeps the skin tight and youthful.
• Hydration: Collagen helps retain moisture, contributing to plump, smooth skin.
• Wound healing: Collagen is essential for repairing damaged skin and tissues.

Collagen and Aging:

• As we age, collagen production naturally declines, beginning in our mid-20s.
• Factors like sun exposure, pollution, smoking, and poor diet can accelerate collagen breakdown.
• Reduced collagen leads to fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin, and loss of  volume, which is why collagen-boosting treatments are popular.

Supporting Collagen:

• Professional treatments like radio frequency, LED therapy, and collagen-boosting facials can stimulate natural collagen production.
• Topical serums and skincare with peptides, antioxidants, and hyaluronic acid support collagen health.
• Healthy lifestyle choices—like balanced nutrition, hydration, and sun protection—also help preserve collagen.

In Summary:
Collagen is the “building block” of youthful, firm skin. Maintaining and stimulating collagen is key to achieving a smooth, lifted, and radiant complexion.
