Everyone has skin concerns. But there’s no reason to let them hold you back from being who you want to be. It’s possible to address many of them using the latest treatments and technologies.
ACNE
It’s not just teenagers who suffer from acne. Good news: we have treatments that can help you.
INFORMATION
Acne is associated with overactive sebaceous glands, which produce oil within the skin. Outbreaks can be mild or severe, depending on what’s happening inside the pore and if bacteria called Propionibacterium acnes are present. Severe acne can lead to acne scarring.
SYMPTONS
• red inflamed breakouts
• pus-filled pimples, blackheads and whiteheads
• underlying congestion
• oiliness
• dehydration
• irritation, tightness and flakiness
• acne scarring
• post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation
• enlarged pores
• pitted scarring
TREATMENTS THAT CAN HELP
• Clarity skin rejuvenation
• LED light therapy
• Skin peel
• Resurfacing
• Hydrating facial
AGED SKIN
As we get older, our skin changes. But it is possible to rejuvenate it.
INFORMATION
Mature and prematurely aged skin becomes visible as collagen and elastin reserves decline and collapse and lines and wrinkles form. Cells also renew more slowly as we age. Over time, the skin can take on a dull, uneven complexion and rough dry texture.
SYMPTOMS
• lines, wrinkles and crepiness
• loss of firmness and elasticity
• laxity
• dullness
• dryness
• blotchiness
• redness
• dilated capillaries
• hyper pigmentation
• uneven skin tone
• open pores
• rough texture

LINES AND WRINKLES, LOSS OF FIRMNESS AND ELASTICITY
Everyone ages – but we can still look our best.
INFORMATION
Collagen and elastin are the skin’s primary support proteins and they give our skin contour, fullness and elasticity. Over time, they break down naturally. The thin, delicate eye area is the first to show the signs, which spread to the cheeks, mouth and jaw line. The result is jowls, lines, wrinkles and loss of firmness.
SYMPTOMS
• fine lines
superficial lines
deep lines
fine/thin skin
crepiness
laxness
open pores

DEHYDRATED SKIN
Bringing hydration back to parched skin is a big part of our work.
INFORMATION
Dehydrated skin lacks water within its top layer. Dehydration can affect anyone at any stage and at any age. Internal and external influences can cause dehydration to fluctuate and recur.
SYMPTOMS
• tightness
• very fine lines
• rough texture
• dull complexion
• occasional oiliness and blackheads
TREATMENTS THAT CAN HELP
• Hydrating facial
• LED light therapy
• Skin peel
• Resurfacing
DRY SKIN
If your skin is dry, there are ways we can bring the moisture back.
INFORMATION
Dry skin lacks oil within the skin. It can be genetic. It’s also influenced by internal factors such as stress, the natural ageing process and diet. External factors also play a part – everything from prolonged sun exposure and wind to chemicals in the environment. Sometimes the products you’re using can make things worse.
SYMPTOMS
• tightness
• dehydration
• fine lines
• lacks vitality
• flakiness
• roughness
TREATMENTS THAT CAN HELP
• LED light therapy
• Skin peel
• Hydrating facial
• Resurfacing
SENSITIVE OR SENSITISED SKIN
Reactive skin can be coaxed back to health with some care and commitment.
INFORMATION
Sensitised skin can be caused by genetic predisposition, stress, hormones, medication or low water intake. It can also be brought on by environmental factors, sun exposure, incorrect product usage and long flights.
SYMPTOMS
• redness
• inflammation
• dilated capillaries
• excess warmth
• dryness
• itchiness
• stinging
• rough texture
• sensitivity to heat, products and friction
• can be associated with itchy eyes, sinus and allergies

SUN-DAMAGED SKIN
It’s hard to stay out of the sun in our climate – thankfully it’s now possible to undo some of the damage.
INFORMATION
Sun exposure is responsible for accelerating the ageing process, which can result in premature ageing. Ultraviolet light (UV) damages the skin’s natural anti-ageing reservoir, depleting the skin of vitamins, essential fatty acids and key proteins, such as collagen and elastin, leading to lines and wrinkles. Coupled with the natural signs of ageing and a slower cell renewal the skin’s appearance can suffer.
SYMPTOMS
• dryness
• dullness
• uneven skin tone/texture
• hyper pigmentation
• dark brown patches
• rough/thickened skin
• loss of volume and firmness
• lines
• wrinkles
• open pores
• dilated capillaries
TREATMENTS THAT CAN HELP
• Clarity skin rejuvenation
• Resurfacing
• Skin peel
• LED light therapy
BROKEN CAPILLARIES AND VASCULAR CONDITIONS
Fine capillaries don’t have to mar your complexion – they can be treated.
INFORMATION
Dilated and broken capillaries can appear on your cheeks, nose or chin – or on the legs as spider veins. As collagen weakens with age it provides less support to capillary walls, which widen and narrow, causing tearing and inflammation that can be seen at the surface of your skin. Many factors can contribute to this process, including environmental assaults, excessive UV exposure, genetic predisposition, trauma to the area and incorrect product usage.
SYMPTOMS
• spider veins
• fine reddish, bluish veins in the face
TREATMENTS THAT CAN HELP
• LED light therapy
• Hydrating facial
• Clarity skin rejuvenation
PIGMENTATION OR UNEVEN SKIN TONE
You don’t have to put up with blotchy or discoloured skin.
INFORMATION
Many people experience uneven skin tone with discolouration and blotchiness within and on the surface of the skin. It can appear all over the face or in isolated areas. Exposure to ultraviolet light is the number one cause of pigmentation but it can also be triggered by hormones, stress and medication. Trauma, fragrance, using the wrong products and exposure to environmental chemicals can also influence it.
SYMPTOMS
• sunspots
• freckles
• light or dark brown patches
• white patches
• pinkish brown spots

UNWANTED HAIR
Hair is a natural part of life – but you’re not alone in wanting to tame it.
INFORMATION
Our bodies are covered in follicles that produce thick terminal and fine vellus hair. Though colour, thickness and density are determined by your genes, they may also be influenced by hormones and medications.
SYMPTOMS
• excessive hair growth
• normal hair growth that you desire to control
