Vampire Facial
The vampire facial is the new in thing, especially amongst A list celebrities and now has become popular amongst a lot of Irish people. The procedure works on the same basis as PRP treatment. The PRP is combined with a rejuvapen. The procedure involves the use of the rejuvapen to penetrate under the skin surface. This treatment is used to stimulate new growth in the face, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and improve the skin tone. The results of this procedure are outstanding.
PRP Injection
Platelet-rich plasma therapy treatment involves extracting blood from a patient and injecting it back into the skin where growth factors increase collagen, stem cell proliferation, and elastin to rejuvenate, tighten, and brighten the skin whilst also reducing wrinkles. Sagging skin will tighten around the face, neck, eyes, and chest. It also promotes hair growth in both men and women.
Dermal Fillers for facial contouring
As we age, the main elements of the dermis are gradually lost, this includes collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid adds shape and volume to the skin and collagen is the main protein that supports the structure of the skin, so therefore all of these materials prevent the skin from sagging. As these materials are decreasing as we age, the skin then becomes thinner and lined with deep wrinkles. Dermal fillers will be your new best friend for this problem. Dermal fillers are a fast and effective treatment that will add volume to your face. It is a gel-like substance that is injected under the skin with a local anesthetic. The fillers will plump and fill out the lines or areas of concern on the face.
Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
A very effective and advanced way of reshaping the nose is with the use of dermal fillers. Dermal fillers can be used to enhance the contours of the nose and give it more definition. Improve the tip and bridge of the nose with this non-surgical cosmetic treatment. Dermal fillers are injected into various parts of the nose. It is a quick and minimal pain treatment option.
Silhouette Soft (Thread Lift)
A Silhouette Soft thread lift is the easiest way to get you younger-looking in a more natural way. Thread lifting works by tackling folds and sags of the skin. The Silhouette Soft treatment is becoming quite popular as the demand grows for skincare, where less is more. There are many different types of thread lifts, some are free-floating, some are secured, some dissolve, and some don’t. While this treatment can be applied to the face, it can also sometimes be applied to the neck, cleavage, and even body areas. This treatment stimulates the production of collagen which then restores firmness. The surrounding tissues will tighten and increase the blood supply which in turn can lead to firmer and healthier skin. Usually, four to sixteen threads are applied in a treatment, which does require a local anesthetic that can last from 20 minutes to an hour.
Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy dates back to the 1950s from the French Medicinal practices. It has seen a prominent rise in popularity in Ireland and has become a staple in a lot of aesthetic clinics to date. The skin rejuvenation treatment improves the skin appearance simply by directly applying micro-fine needles of a potent mixture of minerals, vitamins, hyaluronic acid, enzymes, and plant extracts to the deeper skin layers called mesoderm. As a result, the skin will appear plumper and have a very radiant glow.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels can vary in strength, and some of the concentration requires a fair amount of time to recover. The stronger the chemical peel, the more likely your skin will look sunburned, blistered, and ultimately peel and scab. However, the results are outstanding if you want to reduce the appearance of acne scarring, deep wrinkles, and sun damage.
