How does mesotherapy work?

Written by Marcin Kuna on June 6, 2023. Posted in FAQ.

As the needle is moving in and out of your skin, it pushes your bespoke nutrients directly into your skin. The speed and accuracy of delivery is such that the treatment is virtually pain free, gentle and with very little chance of bruising. The localised micro action of the needle also stimulates collagen and elastin production, so helping to strengthen and restore your skin with the added benefit of reducing scars and lines and wrinkles. It also helps stimulate micro circulation which aids in hair restoration, rejuvenation, elimination of waste, and lymphatic drainage.

How does laser hair removal work?

Written by Marcin Kuna on June 6, 2023. Posted in FAQ.

Laser hair removal works by passing a light beam through the unwanted hair area which is then absorbed by melanin (colour within the hair). This generates heat, which damages the blood supply feeding the hair and disabling the hair forming cells. If the hair follicle does not contain any pigment, the laser will not target it. In other words, if hair is grey, white, blonde or red, laser hair removal will be ineffective.

How does a HydraFacial feel?

Written by Marcin Kuna on June 6, 2023. Posted in FAQ.

The most important factor of the HydraFacial is that it doesn’t hurt. While there is a deep cleansing, exfoliation and peeling process, none of these treatment steps cause any pain whatsoever to skin. Many people describe the process as feeling like a tiny vacuum is tugging gently on your skin. Nothing is being pulled hard, poked or irritated. HydraFacials are completely non-invasive, so there is no skin-puncturing.
