Nano / Rezenerate Facials

The Rezenerate facial is a revolutionary, non-invasive treatment that’s designed to restore youthfulness and radiance to your skin’s texture. Over the course of two weeks the delivery of targeted serums awakens the skin’s collagen-producing cells. Firmness and elasticity are increased; skin is left invigorated and youthful.

Ideal Candidate:

Someone who would like a good nutrient delivery system for their skin and for those who want fast results that require little downtime. Nano/Rezenerate Facial can correct:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Blemishes
  • Sunspots and age spots
  • Oily skin or dry skin

What to expect:

  • 0 to 24 hours: fine lines and wrinkles will fade; the face plumper and more voluminous.
  • Days 3-5: The old dead skin will gently begin to peel away.
  • Days 7-10: A new healthier skin will begin to surface; a healthy glow will be present.
  • Days 10-14: Maximal results will appear and skin will look its best.

Recovery:

There is no extended recovery period and clients can usually apply makeup and go out a few minutes after the facial is complete. We recommend applying a cooling face mask or other cooling tool post facials. An SPF moisturizer of 40 or higher should be applied before the client leaves the spa, and they should wear SPF for the next 7 days. 

Will it damage my fillers or Botox?

Answer: No, since fillers and Botox are injected deep into the dermis, the Rezenerate system will not adversely affect your injections.

How invasive is the facial? Does it hurt?

The Nano/ Rezenerate facial is non-invasive and causes no pain or discomfort, even on thin bone covered areas like the bridge of the nose, the forehead, and around the eyes.

Can Nano/Rezenerate be used on active blemishes?

Yes, since the Rezenerate Chip does not reach or break the dermis there is no risk of cross contamination.

Dermaplaning 

Dermaplaning, also known as leveling or blading, is a non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment for the removal of the outermost dead skin cells on the face. It is a very good way to maintain a healthy glow to your skin and not have any reactive areas that need additional healing needs.

  • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
  • Reduces the appearance of deep acne scars
  • Smoother, more even complexion
  • Removal of fine facial hair, commonly referred to as “peach fuzz”
  • Enhanced penetration of skin care products following treatment

Ideal Candidate:

Dermaplaning is recommended to treat dry, rough skin, acne scars, uneven skin tone, large pores, fine lines, and even unwanted facial hair. This would be a great treatment for anyone concerned with aging.

What to expect:

Unlike exfoliating peel procedures, dermaplaning uses no chemicals, and therefore causes less irritation. The result is skin that is immediately freshened and vitalized, even after one treatment. Patients often benefit from multiple treatments spaced three to four weeks apart.

Facial Infusion Peel

The Facial Infusion is a non-acid peel, dermal infusion treatment for all skin types and conditions. Using a concentrated vitamin infusion to nourish, heal and treat the skin without wounding or aggressive exfoliation.

  • Improve skin tone
  • Reduce fine lines and wrinkles
  • Increase firmness and elasticity
  • Heals red & inflamed spots on the skin

Ideal Candidate:

The Organic Facial Infusion is suitable for both Men and Women, all skin types and concerns. Aging, oily, dry, sensitive or acne prone skin would all benefit from this treatment.

What to expect:

Because the treatment isn’t an “acid peel” you will not expect to feel any stinging or tingle with this treatment. In fact it feels more like a traditional facial than a “peel”. Following treatment you may experience some tightness, dryness and skin flaking. By Day 3 the skin can gradually become drier and tighter. This is normal and sloughing of the skin may begin. Days 4-7 the skin may continue slough, which is normal. During this time you will use a gentle cleanser, hydrating products and physical sun protection. For clients who are well prepped or have more resilient skin, they may not experience any peeling. This is also normal, and is not a indication that the treatment hasn’t worked. Dermal regeneration will continue to work for up to 30 days following the treatment.

Microneedling

Micro-needling increased smoothness and hydration, firms skin, and increases nutrients.

Ideal candidate:

Anyone looking to reduce surgical, thermal, and acne scars, stretch marks, cellulite, enlarged pores or dyspigmentation. Also reduces fine lines and wrinkles, loose or dehydrated skin.

What to expect:

Application of local anesthetic numbing cream can prevent treatment discomfort.

Recovery:

Immediately following treatment, your skin will have some redness and flushed in appearance like a moderate sunburn. You will also experience skin tightness and mild sensitivity to the treated area as well as some peeling (depending on the depth). At 24 hours and up to 36 hours, after treatment, little to no evidence of injury to the treated area is visible, however tightness and peeling can occur.

Biophotonic therapy is based on Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology and is the application of light energy to the body for therapeutic benefits. LED light therapy may help smooth skin texture, improve skin firmness and resilience, reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and superficial hyperpigmentation. The treatment is for all skin types, and is non-ablative, non-invasive, painless, and requires absolutely no downtime.

Lash Lift

The lash lift procedure has revolutionised old, inadequate perming techniques. This new technique can lift, straighten or curl, and lengthen your own natural lashes to create a brighter, fuller, wide eyed look. No need for extensions and the associated aftercare, this will last you 6-8 weeks and can be combined with a tint to leave the mascara behind.

What to expect:

A lash lift can take anything from 45 minutes to an hour from beginning to end. The procedure is totally painless. A Lash Lift can last 6-8 weeks but can vary from person to person.  

Recovery:

Gently clean your eyes, using mild products. Always wait 24 hours to do this, straight after the procedure.
