SKIN PEEL:

A skin peel is performed by the doctor applying a few layers of buffered Trichloroacetic (TCA) acid on the face and neck area. The buffered (reduced-strength) acid removals the top layers of unhealthy and dull skin, revealing healthy and new layers of skin underneath.



The benefits of skin peel is as below:

Pigmentation - reduces & improves the look of darkened skin patches and spots.

Acne Scarring - reduces and removes your dark marks, red spots, rough skin and blocked pores.

Sun Damage - reverses & removes your photo-aged and sun-damaged outer skin layers.

Age Spots - lightens and removes dark spots, and blotches on your skin.

Blackheads - open blocked pores eliminating black/whiteheads, smooths rough skin.

Uneven Skin Tone - clears, lightens and brightens your skin revealing an even colored skin tone.

Large Pores - quickly reduce the size, look, and appearance of your enlarged pores.

Fine Lines - this includes your laughter lines, crow's feet, brow lines, and crinkly skin.



The procedure takes less than 10 minutes and is not painful. One experiences a tingling or warm sensation on the face during the peel.

After the procedure, the skin will start peeling for a few days. During this time, you may still go to work and do your usual activities. The visible peeling is minimal and will not affect your appearances. During the peeling, you may continue to use your usual facial products such as cleanser, toner, moisturiser and sunblock. Try to avoid using any harsh chemicals on the face such as facial scrubs for the first few days after each peeling session.

The skin peel is repeated every 1 month for a total of 4 sessions. Additional sessions may be done after a period of at least 1 month, to all the skin to fully recover and rejuvenate. However, even if you do one session, you will still see improvement.

A skin peel is safe.

THREAD LIFT FOR LIFTING & TIGHTENING FACE, NECK, BREAST & ABDOMINAL SAGGY SKIN


PDO Thread Lift is a type of procedure that implants a specially made medicinal thread (bio-herbal wire thread) in the dermis, sub-muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS) and muscle layers of the skin to achieve the desired effect.  It is largely effective in facial lifting and wrinkle removal. It is:


- Effective for facial lifting, facial elasticity and anti-wrinkle.
 
- Lift sagging skin with bio-absorbable threads (PDO Polydioxanone Suture)
 
- Lift nasolabial & forehead lines (firmer & tauter apprearance to face & neck)

 
Those who do not want to go under the knife or undergo series of radiofrequency or ultrasound treatment can opt for the PDO Thread Lift.
 
This unique bio-absorbable and antimicrobial needle threads provide ample lifting to sagging skin.
 
This technique is to stimulate not just the skin but also the muscle layer to rearrange saggy muscles to create a beautiful face.
*SMAS is a term frequently used to describe face lift techniques. It's actually an abbreviation for sub-muscular aponeurotic system -- a layer of tissue that covers, surrounds and attaches to the deeper tissues and structures of the face and neck, including the entire cheek area. It also attaches to the platysma - the superficial muscle covering the lower face and neck.
 
PDO Thread Lift is used to stimulate acupoints and fascia to induce self-stimulation of cells, thus the effects does not disappear after a period of time. In addtion, it is completely dissolved in 4 to 6 months after the procedure. It induces the synthesis of collage nin the surrounding tissues by slowly melting away, which leaves no side effects whatsoever. Therefore, it can lift saggy muscles and slowly and naturally increase the elasticity in the treated region.

 
Benefits:
 
For Sagging Skin
It stimulates the SMAS layer to tighten the slacking skin and simultaneously promotes regeneration of the skin by activating of the skin proteins (collagen, elastin)
 
Facial Wrinkles
Due to its strong lifting and skin regeneration effect, it is very effective to resolve deep wrinkles, wrinkles, forehead wrinkles, crow's feet etc.
 
Neck Wrinkles
PDO Thread Lift method reduces the wrinkle around the neck caused by aging to rejuvenate the skin by lifting and skin regeneration.
 
V Line
By effective SMAS layer lifting effects with medicinal effects, it will provide natural V-line without saggy skin.
