  • Microdermabrasion

    Diamond Microdermabrasion Facial & Body Treatments

    Want healthier, radiant and younger looking skin? Then Microdermabrasion is the ideal treatment for you!

    Microdermabrasion is a specialised treatment that provides a multitude of benefits for many skin problems. It is a safe, gentle and deep exfoliation treatment that accelerates the regeneration of new skin cells and stimulates the production of collagen & elastin, effectively plumping the skin and revealing a healthier younger looking complexion. Microdermabrasion can be used for treatment on the face and all body parts.

    Q: What Can Microdermabrasion treat?
    A: Microdermabrasion will achieve fantastic results on:

    • Tired, dull aging skin
    • Blackheads & unclear complexion
    • Congested skin with open pores
    • Acne prone skin
    • Deeper frown lines and lip line
    • Pitted, post acne scarred skin
    • Pigmentation
    • Sun damaged skin
    • Stretch mark’s (Have had great results treating breasts, stomach and thighs)

    Q: Are there skin problems where microdermabrasion should not be used?
    A: Microdermabrasion is not recommended for people with the following conditions:

    Highly active acne, bacterial, viral or fungal skin infections (such as cold sores, shingles,impetigo,cellulitis,folliculitis)
    Eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis.

    If you suffer from any immune deficiencies like HIV and AIDS, Hepititis C, Lupus or skin cancer microdermabrasion is not the treatment for you.

    • Open skin lesions, rashes or burns
    • Vascular lesions – If you have extensive telangiectasia (broken capillaries) or rosacea you should not consider microdermabrasion. as the exfoliation process worsens rosacea symptoms like redness,itchiness,flaking. IPL skin rejuvenation treatment would be more appropriate.
    • Anyone taking oral blood thinner
    • Uncontrollable diabetes
    • Skin healing problems and excessive scarring(Keloids)
    • Recent facelift – You should not undergo a microdermabrasion procedure if you have had a recent facelift.

    A: The following instructions should be followed prior to receiving a microdermabrasion treatment:

    Discontinue the use of Accutane/Isotretinoin for one (1) year prior to treatment.
    Discontinue the use of over the counter Retinol, Glycolic and other Alpha Hydroxy Acids, Salicylic or Beta Hydroxy Acids, or other exfoliation products three (3) days prior to treatment.
    Discontinue use of prescription Retinoid products (Retin-A, Renova, Tretinoin, Avita, Alustra or other brands of Tretinoin), other prescription Retinoid products (Adapalene, Avage, Differin, Tazorac, Tazarotene) thirty (30) days prior to treatment.
    If you are prone to cold sores, you will need to contact your physician for antiviral medication such as Famivir, Valtrex or Zovirax to avoid a post treatment breakout. It is recommended you begin prophylaxis two (2) days prior to treatment and continue for five (5) days post treatment.

    Discontinue the use of the following products and activities for ten (10) days prior to treatment:
    Botox, Collagen, Juvederm, Gortex Restylane, Perlane, Alloderm or other injectibles
    Waxing, electrolysis, IPL and other hair removal products or methods
    Follow all pre-microdermabrasion home care product recommendations as instructed by your Therapist. Optimal results are achieved by following a Medik8 home care regimen that will enhance the microdermabrasion process.

    Q: How exactly does microdermabrasion work?
    A: This pain free procedure involves “sanding” the top layer of the skin (stratum corneum) with a diamond crystals and a vacuum to remove dead skin cells, dirt and grime nestled in the pores all while smoothing the skin to reveal healthier looking skin. This treatment stimulates new collagen production which helps your skin rejuvenate faster than normal, resulting in a reduction of fine lines, skin texture refinement, age and sun spots.

    Q: Is microdermabrasion suitable for me?
    A: This procedure is recommended for men and women, whether you have problem skin or not, as we all prefer more cleaner looking radiant skin. If your goal is to get rid of superficial acne scars, aging skin, blackheads, pox marks from acne, chicken pox scars, blotchy skin, large pores, age spots, sun spots, fine wrinkles and uneven skin tone and texture, you are a perfect candidate for microdermabrasion.

    Q: Where can microdermabrasion be done on the body?
    A: This treatment can be done anywhere on the body where you would like smoother, clearer,younger looking skin, such as hands, arms, neck, breasts – great for stretch marks or reduction/implant scars, Abdomen for old ceaser section scars or stretchmarks, Thighs,back to help with rough unclear pores. (very popular treatment for the men that work away in dirty dusty environments).

    Q: How many treatments will I need and how frequently should they be scheduled?
    A: Every person is different and reacts to cosmetic procedures in an individual way, but generally 4-6 microdermabrasion treatments done 7-14 days apart are required for most people to achieve optimal results.

    Q: When do microdermabrasion results become visible?
    A: Results are immediate, as you will notice on the day of the treatment that your skin is looking cleaner and more polished. We’re not talking life-altering results here, but a nice, clean, smooth feeling is apparent directly after the session. Multiple treatments will provide more drastic results.

    Q: Does microdermabrasion benefit makeup application?
    A: Microdermabrasion makes makeup application look fabulous! Microdermabrasion smooths the skin by gently “sanding” the surface of the skin. Since the skin underneath the makeup is smooth and glowing you will notice your foundation will glide on softly and look brighter.

    Q: Can microdermabrasion help reduce large pores?
    A: Yes. Microdermabrasion stimulates collagen production which is why it works on large pores. The vacuum function sucks out hardened oil, dust and other dirt, which may clog your pores. This way, the oil in the glands can again reach the surface of your skin and your pores can return to their natural shape and size. It cleans the pores and hinders any future breakouts if used on a regular basis.

    Q: Are there any risks or side effects?
    A: There are virtually no side effects and it is virtually risk-free, although you will need to be sun conscious. A great treatment to do a package in the winter months. Microdermabrasion is non-invasive and mild, so you have nothing to worry about. Proper sanitization practices are always enforced at Perfect Reflections.

    Q: What should I expect the days following the microdermabrasion treatment?
    A: During the first 24 hours, your skin may feel dry, or slightly pink similarly to effects of a mild wind or sunburn which goes away after a few hours.

    Be sure to:

    • Apply moisturiser during the first few days
    • Avoid sun exposure for at least a week after the treatment
    • Do not use any peeling products for the next 3-4 days following treatment (Any products containing Retinol, Glycolic, Alpha Hydroxy Acids, Salicylic or Beta Hydroxy Acids).
    • Avoid full-face make up (liquid foundation or pressed powder) for 1-2 days after treatment. Unless you are using Lycogel the only breathable makeup to be used after any cosmetic treatments.

    Q: What should I expect to feel immediately after the treatment?
    A: After the treatment worst case your skin may experience an itching and warming sensation.  We will apply a Medik8 post treatment cream that will sooth and calm the itching sensation. Most people feel a warm, stimulated sensation this is perfectly normal. Your skin will feel considerable smoother and softer after the treatment.

    Q: Is it safe for all skin types?
    A: Microdermabrasion is safe on all skin colours and types. If you are sensitive to chemical peels, microdermabrasion is a particularly good alternative. If you have sensitive skin, the machine can be lowered in suction to accommodate your sensitivity. Rosacia could be an issue depending on it’s severity but your therapist will discuss this in your consultation.

    Q: How much time should I set for my treatment?
    A: Your treatment will take 45 minutes to complete.

    Q: Will I experience any discomfort during treatment?
    A: The microdermabrasion treatment is painless. You will feel the suction from the vacuum passing over your skin with a slight grit from the diamond chips. Most clients say it is relaxing definitely not painful.

    Q: Should I use any aftercare products following the procedure?
    A: You will be given a set of aftercare instructions after your first procedure and a series of Medik8 products will be recommended to maximize your skin renewal process. You will be required to wear a titanium dioxide/zinc oxide sunscreen with a minimum SPF 15 each and every day depending on the time of year. We highly recommend the Lycogel makeup.

        • Intense Pulse Light Therapy

          What is IPL? It stands for intense pulse light treatment.

          IPL is a non-invasive light base technology used to permanently reduce unwanted hair and improve many skin conditions. Skin conditions like age spots, sun spots, freckles, superficial capillaries and other unsightly discolouration of the skin can be eliminated using this technology. IPL is also increasing effective for those of us who suffer from Rosacea and can even stimulate fibroblast causing increased collagen production in our skin for a more natural, lively, healthier looking you!

          Why is IPL called permanent reduction not permanent hair removal?

          IPL hair removal only treats hair in the anagen phase and at any point in time, you only have a portion of your hair in the anagen phase. IPL hair reduction treatments are a safe, easy, painless and quick solution for unwanted hair. Usually a course of 6-8 treatments are required to achieve an optimal result, but once you have completed your treatment cycle, you can look forward to a lifetime of smooth skin with only the occasional maintenance treatment. Compare that to the cost and hassle of a lifetime of waxing.

           

          How effective is IPL?

          IPL is a very effective method of hair removal, as it will reduce more than 85% of all hair treated, some people may achieve 100% hair loss, and only need a touch up treatment every few years although not everyone will achieve this result, so it can not be 100% guaranteed.

          Does IPL Hurt?

          Our IPL machines have cool tip technology, which means the surrounding skin is cooled before your skin absorbs each flash of light. This makes it more comfortable for you with better outcomes, although you may feel a slight level of discomfort with each application. Some people say the treatment feels like being flicked by an elastic band. This will reduce as the area being treated responds to the treatments. Afterwards, your skin may go slightly red for a few hours and feel sensitive for a few days.

          How many IPL hair Treatments will I need?

          You should see a result after your first treatment. You’ll also see a significant improvement if your treatment is repeated at regular intervals. usually between 4-8 treatments but there are varying factors to be discussed at your consultation.

          • Permanent Hair reduction: 6-8 Treatments spaced four to six weeks apart.
          • Sun spot reduction: 4-6 treatments spaced four weeks apart.
          • Vascular lesions: 4-6 treatments spaced two to three weeks apart.
          • Skin rejuvenation: 4-6 treatments spaced four weeks apart.
          • Acne treatments: May be ongoing weekly or fortnightly.

          Skin Rejuvenation:

          Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Skin Rejuvenation is the most modern form of light-based skin therapy. Skin rejuvenation treatments will improve skin tone, texture, refine and refresh the skin by increasing the production of collagen in the skin.

          Intense Pulsed Light, technology works as it is absorbed into targeted cells and causes a controlled damage response to the required area. This damage promotes a wound-healing response in the skin, without a major tissue build-up. Effectively, the skin begins to rapidly produce new skin cells, which replace old, damaged or disfigured patches of skin. IPL is more effective than other skin rejuvenation technologies because of the high frequency and intensity of the light employed. The skin in between the target areas is left untouched, which promotes far more rapid healing and faster improvement leading to less down time, allowing you to get on with your life uninterrupted, during your course of treatments.

          Pigmentation Treatments:

          Born with or acquired over the course of a lifetime, virtually everyone has one or more sun spots, freckles or skin discolouration they would love to get rid of. A doctor’s letter confirming that no skin cancers are present is usually required before commencing your treatment cycle and a series of 4-6 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart are required for optimal results. Treatment areas such as the back of the hands, forearms, back, decolletage and face will respond well.

          Acne treatments:

          IPL treatments are designed to specifically slow the overall production of oil that leads to acne, thus dramatically reducing the chance of spots and minimising the appearance of pores in general. Results will vary, but most people will see a significant improvement in skin condition. Treatment should be spaced approximately 1-2 weeks apart.

          Vascular Treatment:

          We can offer IPL treatments which will reduce facial vascular blemishes such as red flushing known as Rosacea. Thread veins and red spots found on cheeks and around the nose treated with minimal downtime or risk. A treatment cycle of 4-6 treatments spaced two to three weeks apart is usually required to reach your best possible outcome. Then to clean up the finer capillaries, we recommend the VascuLyse treatment.

          • Skin Needling

            We have 2 skin needling options available with the more recently developed Microneedling with the M Pen [Pro] if you’re happy to try a new and effective skin needling process and also the traditional Medical skin needling which has been in effective use for many years.

            What is Microneedling with the m pen [PRO]?

            The Mesoestetic m.pen [PRO] is a medical device shaped similar to a pencil, making it easy for our therapist to operate. At the end of the m.pen there is a small surface with microneedles that vibrate lightly and quickly. The microneedling, better known as Dermapen, is a minimally invasive treatment that does not involve bleeding and only causes a cutaneous erythema (redness) variable depending on the patient’s reaction that can last from 1 to 24 hours.

            In addition to facilitating the entry of active ingredients into the skin by creating microchannels that allow the passage of these, we are causing a microlesion in the skin. This lesion activates a mechanism of restoration by all the dermal tissue that consists of activating the fibroblasts so that they create new collagen and elastin. This way, our skin after this process will be for about 3 weeks regenerating their own cells and components. It is as if we make our skin to exercise to renew and improve. The result will be a healthier and more beautiful skin, totally regenerated.

            Like what you’re reading? Check out these before and after photos…



            What is the M.Pen [PRO] treatment?

            Firstly, we apply the specific product needed on the entire face, according to the patient’s skin type. Then we use the m.pen [PRO] with greater or lesser vibration according to the 5 speeds available, with slow movements throughout the facial surface simulating a massage. The microneedles, with 6 depths to choose from, open microchannels on the skin through which the active principle that we have previously placed can easily pass, thus achieving a much greater effect than if we applied it topically.
            Finally, the skin reacts by regenerating the microchannels that we have opened through the creation of collagen and elastin, recovering completely from the small “lesions” created.

            What is microneedling for?

            We want to recover small face, neck and neckline imperfections. It will improve expression lines, acne marks, light scars, hyperpigmentation, stretch marks, etc. But we can also apply it on healthy skin to regenerate the tissue by the micro-traumatic effect that the needles have on the dermal surface.

            In short, we are performing a minimally invasive anti-aging treatment based on the regeneration of our skin, ideal to combine with various medical-aesthetic techniques.

            How much time and sessions are?

            Each session usually lasts about 45 minutes, each treatment is a minimum of 1 month apart allowing time for the regeneration of new collagen usually taking about 21 days.

            The number of sessions will always depend on the condition of the patient’s skin and the lesions we want to correct, but we can expect that in 3 – 4 sessions we will obtain a good result and then we can schedule a maintenance consisting of 2 – 3 sessions a year.

            Aftercare?

            As a rule, we do not need any kind of specific care because it is a minimally invasive treatment. Recommending Medik8 home care and the use of sunscreen SPF50+ for added protection. It is also not recommended for 25 hrs to participate in energetic or frictional manipulations of the skin.

            What is Medical Skin Needling?

            This is also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) or Scar Reduction Therapy (SRT) Skin needling has been a safe cosmetic procedure in existence for more than 25 years.

            Medik8 Skin Needling is a minimally invasive skin renewal technique used to rejuvenate and improve appearance of the skin. This treatment uses micro-needles on a titanium Medical Grade roller that is moved gently over skin after a topical anaesthetic has been applied. This will create tiny controlled puncture wounds in the skin to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production as wound healing response begins. By creating micro- injuries in the skin which trigger new collagen synthesis, yet does not pose the risk of permanent scarring. The result is smoother, firmer and younger looking skin.

            Medik8 Clinical Skin Needling Is Suitable for Treating

            • Premature Skin Aging
            • Skin Laxity

            • Acne and chicken pox scars
            • Enlarged pores
            • Pigmentation
            • stretch marks
            • Cellulite

            Q: What effects does Clinical Needling have on the skin?

            A: Medik8 Clinical skin needling improves the thickness of the dermis as well as the epidermis. This in return improves skin texture and reduces wrinkles. It also has a positive effect on skin discoloration. It reduces Chicken Pox scares and acne scars, stimulating new collagen fibres, improves blood supply, tightens skin and improves pigmentation.

            Q: Why choose The Medik8 System?

            A: Medik8 have pioneered the use of ultra sharp tapered titanium needles. Medik8 have specially designed a priming and post-treatment regime, enhancing results. Medik8 have authorised practitioners only that have been thoroughly trained using the recommended Medik8 method. The epidermis stays intact with skin needling. This means much faster healing time and minimises any risk of scarring and hyper-pigmentation unlike more aggressive treatments such as lasers or deep peels. Perfect Reflections Use single-use tools that are sterilised and work in a very safe and precise manner and will only use Medik8 skin needles. No post-treatment sensitivity to UV light.

            Q; what are the Contra-indications for skin needling?

            A: Anyone who is darker skinned and hyper pigmented will need to use a lightening skin treatment for 2 weeks prior to their treatment. If you have a propensity to keloid you would not be a candidate for skin needling.We never work on raised moles, warts or any raised lesions.

            Q: How many treatments are recommended for rejuvenation, acne scarring and stretch marks? (General guide)

            A:
            Rejuvenation: 4-6 treatments, 2-6 weeks apart
            Acne scarring: 6 treatments, 2-4 weeks apart
            Stretch marks: 4-8 treatments, 2-6 weeks apart

            Q: How do I prepare my skin before having a skin needling Treatment?

            A: For optimal results, Skin priming should start 2 weeks before your appointment. The use of stable vitamin A,C and growth factor Medik8 serums in the weeks before skin needling, will jump start the process of collagen production, accelerating the benefits from treatment. These same Medik8 products are also recommended for post- treatment healing.Clients prone to hyper-pigmentation are advised to add a lightening serum – Medik8 White Balance. Those who bruise easily should use Red Alert serum.

            Q: What happens during the treatment?

            A: Your skin is cleansed, assessed, and a topical anaesthetic (numbing cream) is applied for 30-60 minutes. During this time you are free to relax (most clients relax and sleep whilst numbing). After this time your skin is cleansed again, then a potent hydrating serum, containing hyaluronic acid and vitamins, is applied which is transfused deep into the skin during treatment. Titanium Microneedle Roller is rolled gently over the skin to puncture the outermost layer to create thousands of miniscule sub-cutaneous injuries. You will not feel any appreciable pain. The process usually lasts for 20 minutes.

            Q: Can the skin needling be carried out on darker skin types?

            A: Skin needling can be safely performed on all skin colours and types. There is no risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation as the melanocytes remain intact, like the epidermis, during skin needling.

            Other invasive procedures such as laser resurfacing are not recommended for darker skin types due to the potential risks of delayed wound healing, pigmentation changes and scarring. This is where skin needling has an advantage as these potential risks are very unlikely due to the epidermis remaining intact.

            Q: How long should it take before I see results?

            A: Typically, you will see significant results 6 weeks following the treatment and continue to improve for up to a year or more. A recommended course of 3 skin needling treatments at 6 week intervals to achieve optimum results combined with Medik8 post care.

            Q: Is the treatment painful?

            A: For minimum needle depths Skin needling treatments are relatively painless. Treatments over 0.5mm deep, may require a topical anaesthetic cream to be applied for 30-60 minutes before the procedure. This will render the treatments virtually pain free.

              Plasma Treatment is commonly used to treat the following:

              • Non-surgical blepharoplasty (Eye area)
              • Face, neckline and body lifting
              • Acne
              • Scars
              • Stretch Marks
              • Keloids
              • Fine Lines and wrinkles
              • Xanthelasmas
              • Fibromas
              • Spots
              • Warts
              • Hyperpigmentation
              • Cysts

              How Plasma Fibroblast Treatments Work

              The Plasma Fibroblast treatment is done at a distance of approximately 1mm above the surface of the skin creating a minuscule electrical plasma arc (although it is a needle it is not inserted into the skin at all). When the plasma arc touches the skin, it vaporises a micromillimeter-sized dot on the skin’s surface. This process is called sublimation. This enables the treatment imprint to be wider and shallow. This dot minimally tightens the skin in its vicinity. Several points applied together to create a “reduction grid”. Through the application of grids in specific patterns, excess skin is tightened as a result. The benefits of which are a greater tightening effect allowing for better results, a quicker healing process and less downtime.

              As we age our dermal layer thins, less collagen is produced, elastin fibers wear out & these changes affect the structure of our skin causing it to wrinkle & sag and to lose texture & laxity.

              Plasma treatments are used in combination with numbing cream if required. Treatments can take as little as between 20-30 minutes and there is minimal downtime. Small formations of scabs and slight swelling is to be expected. The Lycogel makeup is the only makeup you can wear after this treatment. With visible results after one treatment and a gradual improvement over a couple of weeks post-treatment, it’s very exciting to be able to offer the Plasma treatments.

                    • Structural Remodelling System

                      The Skin Remodelling System™ is the first to offer an innovative proprietary remodelling treatment by combining the synergy of five scientifically-proven technologies, for outstanding results.

                      The Skin Remodelling System™ is a revolutionary new skin rejuvenation system that effectively stimulates new collagen growth in the deeper skin layers, replacing aged and sun damaged collagen, plumping the skin, smoothing wrinkles, tightening skin and muscles.

                      If you are looking for a non-surgical procedure that delivers better, faster, and longer-lasting results this is the one?

                      This treatment will:

                      1. Stimulate cell renewal and the growth of new healthy skin.

                      2. Activate neo-collagen production restoring volume and elasticity to the skin, while plumping wrinkles.

                      3. Relax dynamic lines erasing the areas of facial expression such as crow’s feet, worry lines and lip wrinkles.

                      4. Tighten the skin to a youthful smoothness and tautness.

                      5. Restore muscle tone by redefining the facial contour, lifting the cheeks and tightening the jawline and neck.

                      Skin Remodeling System™…powered by HVPC technology will provide all of these advanced features in one treatment.

                      How can this amazing system work for you?

                      It is all in the head!

                      The Synchronized Delivery™ treatment head

                      This unique ergonomic treatment head combines five scientifically proven, “age reversal” technologies, delivering them simultaneously through a single treatment head, providing a remarkably effective treatment in a fraction of the time.

                      The Synchronized Delivery system™ uses a computer guided program that skilfully applies the optimum treatment protocol at the precise intensity for the exact duration.

                      The Synchronized Delivery system™ treat age-related problems by improving dermal density and muscle tone through a proprietary technology called HYPC Remodeling™.

                      Thermal and non-destructive this technology restores the cells by using a unique mechanism of action, combining

                      • High Voltage Pulsatile Currents
                      • Ultrasound
                      • Impulse Micro-Currents
                      • Electroporation and Iontophoresis currents

                      with a unique delivery system to specifically target all major components responsible for the ageing skin appearance.

                      Here is how the Skin Remodeling System™ unlocks the powerful capacities of these exciting “science-based’ technologies.

                      HVPC

                      HVPC current is used to repair and renew muscle fibers, improving muscle tone and skin elasticity.

                      Ultrasound

                      Ultrasound 1MHz safely heats the deeper layers of the skin, initiating collagen remodelling and tightening skin.

                      Impulse Micro-Currents

                      Impulse micro-currents lift sagging muscles and increase ATP production, giving all cells the necessary energy to maintain their essential daily functions such as cellular division and repair.

                      Electroporation

                      The combination of Electroporation, Phonophoresis and Iontophoresis current is another technological innovation, increasing the penetration of essential anti-aging ingredients at depth never reached before.

                      The Skin Remodeling System™ is the first transdermal delivery system to simultaneously combine the compounded effects of HVPC, Impulse Micro-Currents, Ultrasound, Electroporation and Iontophoresis current.

                      When using the Synchronized Delivery™ treatment head, energy is effectively delivered into the dermis where it can produce significant dermal impact, and into the muscle tissue where it can elicit wound-healing responses to repair and tone muscles, leaving the skin looking tighter and rejuvenated. This treatment is compatible with injectables as it stimulates the muscle to help maintain the muscle tone that is consequently lost with the use of injectables. An awesome alternative for those that choose not to inject.

                      • LED Light Therapy

                        Perfect Reflections is excited to introduce the Ultimate in Skin Rejuvenation Treatments, Scientifically proven to boost collagen and elastin for firmer radiant looking skin. Blue light is fantastic for killing the P-bacteria for Acne skin.

                        Photonlite Therapy

                        Photonlite therapy or LED (Light Emitting Diode) is a proven cosmetic therapy originally developed by NASA to aid wound healing in space. It works by emitting light into layers of the skin to stimulate cellular activity (called ‘photo modulation’) to produce new collagen – essentially tricking the skin into thinking it’s younger. It is a non-invasive light source which stimulates the deep tissue responsible for tissue repair and collagen production. This treatment is not a Laser or IPL and does not emit any UVA, UVB or Infrared. It is completely painless and safe for all skin types. Best of all it requires absolutely no recovery time and you see an instant glow after your initial treatment.

                        LED Treatment

                        Entirely non-invasive, Photonlite LED starts working immediately. It is used to treat the following skin conditions:

                          • Acne
                          • Open pores
                          • Fine lines and wrinkles
                          • Photo damaged skin (sun damage or photoaging)
                          • Rosacea
                          • Stretch marks
                          • Post-operative care to stimulate wound healing
                          • Skin Tone Correction (Dermal Repair)

                         

                        Photonlite therapy can eliminate a dull complexion, tone and tighten facial muscles, and improve oxygenation in the skin, leaving your skin looking vibrant and fresh. LED is a highly effective treatment on its own or used in conjunction with Skin Needling, Microdermabrasion, for even more amazing results. It has the added benefit of reduced sun sensitivity compared with laser-based procedures, meaning it is safe to have at any time of the year.

                        At Perfect Reflections one of our big focuses is Acne.

                        L.E.D works for acne

                        L.E.D blue light therapy is very effective in treating acne. Blue light works on reducing colonies of bacteria responsible for acne and by exerting anti-inflammatory effects on the skin.

                        L.E.D.( Light Emitting Diode) can help to prevent and control papules, pustules, and typical acne quite effectively. The L.E.D. penetrates into the dermis and slows sebaceous glands that create oils in the skin that can cause acne. Non-inflamed acne such as whiteheads and blackheads tend to respond less effectively so it is recommended it be combined with a Medik8 facial for best results.

                        At Perfect Reflections, we use the MediLUX. This provides not just monochromatic treatments (one colour), it has the advantage of offering polychromatic programs using a variety of colour to attain ultimate versatility for unprecedented results.

                        LED Light Therapy stimulates collagen production (reducing fine lines and wrinkles) and kill acne-causing bacteria on the skin, improving skin clarity—with no pain and no downtime. Red light therapy: Activates collagen production to improve the visible signs of aging, to restore glowing, healthy-looking skin. It can also be used to reduce age spots, sun damage, and overall redness, flushing, and dilated capillaries. Red light therapy can also reduce the appearance of bruising and reduce healing time. Results are often immediate.

                        Blue light therapy: Kills acne-causing bacteria, without harming skin, to improve skin clarity and reduce future breakouts. Results are often seen after just one treatment but may require several treatments for desired results.

                        LED Blue light treatment.

                        LED blue light therapy is very effective for treating acne and usually requires multiple treatments. LED light treatments are a stand-alone treatment and can be discounted if combined with another Medik8 service such as a deep cleansing facial.

                        Benefits:

                        • Reduces Skin inflammation
                        • Calms skin down to reduce the appearance of overall redness and flushing also helping Rosacea.
                        • Accelerates skin healing and repairing, enhance younger-looking skin.

                        We recommend a course of 10 treatments over a 5 week period to ensure the best results, followed by a maintenance treatment every 4-6 weeks

                        Typically clients will come in for two treatments a week for 3-5 weeks or until improvement is visible. At that point, we gradually decrease the frequency of treatments. The treatment only takes about 20 minutes and does not leave any visible signs that you have had a treatment. We recommend L.E.D. treatments be used in conjunction with a home Medik8 or Mesoestetic regime that has been tailored to your skin concern. A consultation is required before any treatments can commence.

                        LED Therapy FAQ’s

                        What to expect after the treatment?

                        Skin is refreshed and healthier, with a lovely glow. Stimulation of the collagen-producing cells
                        takes place causing the skin’s foundation to be strengthened. A course of LED treatments gives
                        the best results, and the effects can continue after the course for several weeks-months.

                        How long will the treatment last?

                        For maximum skin benefits and long-lasting results, a course of 7-10 treatments
                        over 3-5 weeks is recommended. A single booster treatment every 4-6 weeks
                        can help maintain results.

                        Does the treatment hurt?

                        No. It is completely painless, lying under bright red light, and once you
                        get used to the light it is often very relaxing.

                        Is it safe?

                        Treatment is safe and effective for all skin types and colours.

                        How long does the procedure take?

                        The whole procedure takes up to 45 minutes. Your skin will be cleansed
                        before the light treatment and afterward Medik8 serums and sunblock are applied.

                        How quickly does it work?

                        Although you may see improvements during the course of treatments, optimum results
                        will be seen 8-12 weeks after treatment, because of the natural processes of healing
                        and rejuvenation, stimulated by the light therapy, continue to work for this length of time.
