LOOSE SKIN
As we age one of the most common complaints is “saggy” skin. Skin loses collagen and elasticity as the years go by which results in less resistance to the pull of gravity. Many factors can contribute to the decrease of collagen and elastin fibres including genetics, diet, lifestyle, UV rays and weight fluctuations. We have many options for non-surgical procedures that stimulate your skin into naturally tightening and lifting with extremely effective results and minimal downtime. Contact us and we’ll recommend your best treatment option for optimal results and develop a customized treatment plan made for your your skin type, condition, budget and preferences.
TREATMENT OPTIONS
+ Dermapen™ Microneedling
Dermapen™ Microneedling technology is used to improve the skin’s texture and tone, reduce surface scarring and minimize the appearance of fine wrinkles. The Dermapen™ is a small, hand-held device that delivers up to 1,300 micro-punctures per second, stimulates your skin’s natural ability to heal itself, and in the process produces collagen and elastin. The added benefit of micro needling is that these superficial micro-channels facilitate the absorption of topically applied products such as hyaluraonic acid (HA) and Redensity I dermal filler.
+ Fotona 2D
Fotona’s 4D treatment can be broken down if you are not looking for all elements to be targeted.
If your goal is strictly skin tightening and collagen induction your Fotona 2D treatment would include:
1 – SmoothLiftn INTRAORAL
The first step involves a pain free, non-invasive treatment that heats the skin intraorally which targets volume through the process of collagen induction. The effects are overall improvement of tightness and elasticity of the skin along with a plumping effect, much like filler.
2 – PIANO
The second stage of your Fotona 2D involves heating the skin safely and rapidly from the outside in by concentrating energy delivery from the outside in by concentrating energy delivery subcutaneously. This is done using a brushing technique and provides an outstanding tightening effect for the for the areas experiencing skin laxity.
If your skin concerns centre more around fine lines, skin tone, pores and resurfacing to brighten your complexion your Fotona 2D treatment would include:
1 – FRAC3
The first step involves the targeted treatment of specific, deeper imperfections in the skin like brown spots and vascular components using a fractional laser. This is fast, effective and will help restore youthful texture.
2 – SupErficial LASER PEEL
The final stage is the polishing effect for your skin. The treatment removes dead skin cells by gently vaporizing micron-thin layers of the epidermis while thermally effecting deeper skin layers to stimulate the production of new collagen in the dermis. This produces a brighter and healthier tissue which provides that noticeable glow to your skin.
What to expect?
Each person is different but you can expect minimal to no discomfort during the treatment. Immediately following the treatment, you may experience some redness or mild swelling that will diminish over a few hours. Most clients can resume their daily activities immediately following the treatment.
+ Fontona 4D® Non Surgical Face Lift
Fontona 4D® is a series of synergistic, non-invasive laser treatments of both the exterior face and the oral cavity, enabling full-thickness contraction of collagen for persistent tightening and volumization (wrinkle reduction) without injectables.

After the treatment, the appearance of lines on your face will be reduced, your lips will appear fuller and more defined, and your cheeks plump. You will leave looking naturally refreshed.
+ Microcurrent Facial
A microcurrent facial is often referred to as a “natural” facelift. “This safe and painless facial helps erase fine lines and wrinkles, while firming your skin and defining your features. It improves muscle tone, reduces puffiness, increases cellular activity, and tightens pores. The overall result is a healthier and younger looking skin, no matter your age.
A microcurrent facial emits extremely low-voltage electrical currents (hence ‘micro’ current), which mirror your own body’s electrical currents, on a cellular level to repair damaged skin and stimulate collagen and elastin production. It works simultaneously to repair a produce collagen in the dermis, the deepest layer of your skin, while gently erasing signs of aging in the epidermis, the top layer of your skin. It is safe and effective on all skin types and skin colors. There is no downtime and you can immediately see results including a more defined jaw line, more pronounced cheekbones and your eyes will look younger and refreshed. However, the initial results are rather fleeting and vanish in a week or two. A series of initial treatments maximizes your results followed by maintenance treatments.
Because the immediate results are so apparent, microcurrent facials are a must right before that big event where you want to look your best. Kate Winslet, Madonna, Oprah Winfrey and Jennifer Anniston are all fans of microcurrent facials.
+ TriPollar RF
TriPollar RF treatments deliver skin tightening and treatment of wrinkles from the first treatment, and long-lasting results after a course of treatments, without surgery or downtime. The radio frequency technology in TriPollar devices works by delivering focussed energy to the skin surface and tissue layers stimulating natural collagen regeneration for incredible results. This is an amazing treatment to target fine lines and loose skin around the eyes and mouth.
+ Morpheus8
Morpheus8 is a fractional skin treatment that stimulates collagen production of the underlying layers of the dermis. By targeting the deeper layers of the skin, tissues of the face and body can be remodelled to reveal a more radiant youthful appearance.
