Blackheads occur when we have oil coming through and can create a little plug at the top of the follicle. Thankfully, in the hands of a professional, we can extract them safely and effectively.

A breakout is a small pustule know as whitehead, that’s developed when sebaceous glands become clogged and infected. This leads to those uncomfortable, red, and swollen lesions we’ve all experienced.

Acne is a chronic skin condition that affects both the skins hair follicle and oil glands. A much deeper skin condition, acne occurs too far away from the skins surface to be pushed up and out, so it requires holistic care to treat and manage.

Redness and rosacea are conditions where your facial blood vessels are enlarged, giving your cheeks, nose and chin a more flushed appearance.

Genetics play a large role in the proneness of rosacea with lighted skin type more susceptible.

Diet can trigger flare ups in rosacea and redness such as consumption of spicy foods, coffee, and alcohol.

Weather change can contribute to rosacea and redness with cold/hot temperatures increase sensitivity.

Skincare choices can trigger unwanted redness through poor prescription resulting in irritation.

If you have a dehydrated skin condition, your skin is lacking water. It appears as a dull complexion, can be sensitive and irritated and has an increased appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

When skin is dehydrated, it creates more oil to make up for missing water which if not managed can lead to breakouts, irritation, and dry patches on your skin.

Any skin type can experience sensitivity with it commonly displaying as irritation, inflammation, or redness. This sensitivity is often sign of an impaired barrier-the outer layer of your skin.

When our skin barrier is impaired, it struggles to maintain the essential components of healthy skin and needs specific recovery focussed care.

Pigmentation can be caused hormonally and non-hormonally. Most commonly, pigmentation is caused by induced sun exposure and lack of sun protection. Pigmentation like melasma can be attributed to hormonal imbalances such as during pregnancy.

During IPL or photo-epilation treatments an applicator head that emits high intensity flashes of filtered light is placed on the treatment area. The energy from this light is absorbed by the melanin, which is responsible for hair pigment or colour, and is transported to the hair root.

This technique makes it possible to permanently remove unwanted hair, the treatment is painless without risk and innocuous for the face and body. The device is equipped with a water-cooling system for higher efficiency and safety.

Please note: we cannot treat white, grey, or red hair, only dark hair.

For best results a minimum of at least 6-10 treatments are recommended for each treatment are at intervals of:

- 4-6 weeks for treatments on face

- 6-10 weeks for treatments on body

During your consultation you will receive a treatment and maintenance plan, plus pre and post care for each session. Because everyone is different, the number of treatments required will vary for each individual.
