MEDACARE SKIN CLINIC

WELCOME TO ONLINE BOOKING

Medacare is back to full services and you are in safe hands.

As a priority health and safety measure Medacare has purchased RAT tests and will be self-testing daily to keep all booked clients safe during this time.

Medacare is also open for retail at all levels without an appointment being necessary, all health measures are in place, please wear a mask, scan in and keep 1 meter distance from others when here and if necessary please reschedule and stay home if you are sick or are required to isolate.

BOOKING AN APPOINTMENT

I kindly ask all appointments are now self managed and booked exclusively online with the exception of rebooking in person in clinic. Should you need to change or cancel your appointment, please log in using your cell phone number or save your confirmation email which contains a link to cancel or reschedule at a later date. If you are uncertain what to book for your skin, a consultation will be your best investment.

CLINIC HOURS

My normal clinic hours are planned in advance between Tuesday and Friday. Outside of clinic time I spend this very important time with my family and cannot be reached. Please anticipate your needs where possible and book in advance. An appointment is usually required for all inquiries, advice and information, treatment and supervision including adjustments. No appointment is necessary to purchase and collect repeat products required for your treatment and ongoing care.

CONTACT

Because the clinic is full, usually I am not able to personally answer phone calls during clinic hours without it affecting my scheduled time with clients, therefore the best way to contact me is with a short email as this allows me to receive all communication from clients in one messaging system as well as assess and respond in order to clients as soon as I am able too. Please allow a few days for me to reply because of the volume of emails I receive daily and the time pressure I may be under. If an urgent reply is necessary, please write urgent in the subject line and it will take priority when I can check my emails. Please accept my apology for any inconvenience this might cause.

Dermalux ® Phototherapy (Subsidised)

30 mins · $69

More info
The Dermalux can be selected as a stand alone treatment, as a course to resolve to resolve a range of skin problems, combined with other procedures to enhance and accelerate treatment results or performed ongoing to prevent or manage a range of skin concerns including skin aging, skin disease and skin damage.

Unlike more invasive procedures, LED Phototherapy does not use heat, chemicals or induce trauma to promote biological change in the skin, therefore provides one of the safest modalities to treat all skin types and conditions without downtime.

After just one treatment the skin instantly responds, activating the skins natural rejuvenation and repair processes, accelerating cell renewal and collagen banking to promote healthy looking revitalised skin. On a medical level it begins augmenting tissue repair and promoting regeneration of different tissues and nerves as well as prevention of tissue damage. It targets cells to facilitate immune modulation and skin correction. Very quickly over a matter of days to weeks with recurring sessions the effects accumulate where skin conditions begin to resolve and the skin becomes better quality, more youthful and better looking.

Dermalux ® Combination Therapy

30 mins · $140

More info
If you have acne or rosacea you will qualify for this treatment otherwise known as combined selective thermolysis. This is the most effective treatment to treat and manage chronic medical skin conditions such as acne and rosacea. Phototherapy & thermolysis via a combination of treatment methods is combined with topical therapies selected individual to each case.

When treating acne for example; selective sebaceous gland electro-thermolysis combined with photo-thermolysis is one of the most effective treatments. During each session, a 1.5-mm long needle with 0.45-mm of base insulation was inserted into pores of acne lesions. Upon insertion, a high-frequency electrical current was applied for 0.25-0.50 seconds, for a total output of 40 W. Clinical success is between 83 and 98% clearance of both inflammatory and non-inflammatory acne lesions.

Selective photo-coagulation is induced to remove viscosities and reduce vascularisation of the sebaceous gland, reducing the production of sebum and the ability of any hormonal influence to cause acne in the skin.

CUSTOMISED TREATMENT

There are many ways to promote daily, healthier looking, better functioning skin and to achieve more visible and longer lasting results. To orchestrate this and create different epidermal or dermal changes with-in the skin there are various treatment methods you may need to consider. These include: Internal or topical, home care or clinical, surgical or natural, injectable or needle-free, thermal or non-thermal, physical or chemical, ablative or non-invasive, short or long term, level of intensity, pain, social downtime and of course if the treatment is suitable or non-suitable. This is why a consultation is your skins best investment, not to try something new, but to do something right, and learn how to get your skin in the best shape its ever been.

At Medacare we can also take customising treatment one step further to ensure the individual needs of each person we work with are personal and personalized, recognising what the skin needs and what it doesn't, to transform the health and appearance of your skin, unifying shades and colours, texture and tone, structure and function because changing skin, changes lives.

All you need to do is choose an area and we can rally treatments together that compliment each other for multiple conditions or disorders to prevent, manage or correct your skin now and improve the way you look for years to come. View less

Dermapen Microneedling

Dermapen ® Advice & Information

15 mins · Free

More info
Microneedling is a non-thermolytic and non-ablative treatment providing a safe natural alternative to fractional laser, injectables or surgical treatment with the option to also combine treatments and/or include prescriptive transdermal solutions (alternative to PRP) and micronutrients for more specialised treatment.

It is a form of regenerative medicine and is uniquely specialised for the untouched look to reclaim and transform the health and appearance of your skin naturally.

Microneedling stimulates epidermal and dermal regeneration, the fractional microchannels activate transforming growth factors for structural change, controlled neo-collagenesis (new collagen) and neo-angiogenesis (new blood vessels), this natural wound healing response produces and distributes new cells and structures for visual, textural and structural remodelling and tightening of the skin and underlying matrix. The skin plumps and thickens in response to this stimulus, ultimately correcting the appearance of the skin.

As melanocytes (pigment producing cells) are also directly targeted, the repair and corrective process that occurs post needling rebalances melanogenesis for an even skin tone and a radiant appearance.

Cellular turnover is rapidly increased from treatment which reduces retention hyperkeratosis, purges keratin deposits, rebalances sebum production and increases natural moisturising factor (NMF) to promote regulated desquamation to treat many other medical and cosmetic skin conditions such as acne.

Microneedling is also indicated for scar revision to actively break up existing scar tissue, reduce fibrous deposits and stimulate melanogenesis for normalisation of even pigmentation to rebuild healthy, thicker and firmer even skin in the scared region.

Medacare is a 'Dermapen Gold Authorised Treatment Provider' and specialise in the treatment of:

+ Aging and Sun Damage
+ Fine Lines and Wrinkles
+ Pigmentation and Melasma
+ Enlarged Pores and Texture
+ Loose Skin and Striae
+ Acne and Breakouts
+ Rosacea
+ Scaring
+ Alopecia and Hair Loss

The Dermapen 4 is the safest, most advanced, award winning fractional microneedling system for both medical and aesthetic treatment. View less

Dermapen ® Microneedling

30 mins · $299

More info
Medacare is a 'Dermapen Gold ATP Clinic (Authorised Treatment Provider).

Microneedling is performed for:

+ Aging complexions and rhytides (lines and wrinkles)
+ Laxity, loss of elasticity, hydration and density
+ Photomelanosis and dyschromia (hyper/hypo pigmentation)
+ Acne, blemishes and melasma
+ Pore size, skin tone and texture
+ Lose skin and stretch marks
+ Scar revision, alopecia and hair loss

Microneedling stimulates epidermal and dermal regeneration, the fractional microchannels activate transforming growth factors for structural change, controlled neo-collagenesis (new collagen) and neo-angiogenesis (new blood vessels), this natural wound healing response produces and distributes new cells and structures for visual, textural and structural remodelling and tightening of the skin and underlying matrix.

Microneedling is also indicated for scar revision to actively break up existing scar tissue, reduce fibrous deposits and stimulate melanogenesis for normalisation of even pigmentation to rebuild healthy, thicker and firmer even skin in the scared region.

Preparation:

Maintenance and support of your skin with the correct homecare is paramount to ensure more effective, longer lasting results and so more durable procedures can be performed. Skin bed preparation is instrumental to support and promote daily, healthier looking, better functioning skin.

Levels of treatment:

+ No blood and no colour change » epidermal stratum corneum.
+ No blood and pink colour change » epidermal stratum granulosum.
+ No blood and red colour change » epidermal basel spinosum.
+ Minimal irregular pinpoint blood » superficial papillary dermis.
+ Mild regular pinpoint blood » reticular dermis.
+ Moderate consistent pinpoint bleeding » subcutaneous hypodermis.

Add Prescriptive Meso-Glides™ to your treatment:

+ An alternative to PRP and injectables to optimise results.
+ Transdermal delivery of prescriptive solutions to facilitate corrections (mesotherapy).
+ Treatment of hypovitaminosis or loss of volume and hydration (non-crosslinked superficial filler).

Meso-glides have been exclusively developed for Dermapen procedures. Once controlled injury has been performed through Microneedling, repair is stimulated by the presence of retinoids, antioxidants and cell regulating nutrients, if these are inadequate, repair is unlikely to happen, and results compromised. We can mitigate this by delivering customisable high dose essential nutrients into select layers of the skin, facilitating cellular functions and chemical reactions to augment optimal results.

Add the Über PRO Meso-Peel to your treatment :

+ Aging, acne and scaring.
+ Irregular texture, clarity and complexion.
+ Melasma and dyschromia (hyperpigmentation).

The Über Pro is a superficial depth meso-peel containing mandelic, lactic, pyruvic, ferulic and kojic acids, and fortified with potent retinaldehyde, copper peptides, niacinamide and hyaluronic acid. With re-texturizing, tyrosinase-inhibiting and keratolytic properties, it resurfaces the top layer of the skin, provides a smoother, softer appearance, reduces fine lines and wrinkles and evens colour, improving hyperpigmentation, aged complexions, scaring and treating problematic skin (Oil control, acne, pore reduction etc). The full list of ingredients include:

Add the Über MD Meso-peel to your treatment: Ask in clinic.

+ Isolated deep rhytids (deeper static wrinkles)
+ Rolling, boxcar and ice pick scars
+ Dilated pores and atrophic striae (Deep stretch marks)

The Über MD is a patented world first medium depth anabolic meso-peel for fractional regeneration, applied using a cross technique for the treatment of scars and deep rhytides (Wrinkles). A revolutionary blend of trichloroacetic acid (35%) with beta-lipoxy acid, retinaldehyde (A), pyruvic acid and salicylic acids to ingeniously fill and regenerate atrophied tissue.

While these superficial and medium depth meso-peels can be applied as a stand-alone treatment for an effective result on its own, it is designed to be applied immediately after microneedling in the same session, working together as a full skin rejuvenation system for customised treatment, enhanced effects and impressive results.

Aftercare:

There is a misconception that microneedling needs to be an exceptionally bloody treatment, but it has been established that you can achieve the same level of collagen activation, synthesis and regeneration from a 1mm treatment as opposed to a 3mm treatment depth, so more blood does not equal a better treatment. Images of faces covered in blood does not represent this treatment fairly, it is not an exceptionally painful treatment with extreme trauma and downtime, instead when it is performed, client comfort is important because the use of numbing creams reduce all results and endanger the skin so a gentle touch is needed. Post treatment the skin feels like a mild to moderate sunburn, with no scabbing, grazing or track marks, only mild pinpoint blood that goes away.

Post treatment, the inflammatory phase occurs over day 1 to 5 (Phagocytosis, growth factors) which includes some social downtime depending on the depth of treatment. The proliferation phase occurs from day 2 to 21 days (Angiogenesis, collagen deposition, fibroplasia, GAGS, re-epithelialisation, contraction, apoptosis), these are the seeds of your results. The maturation phase occurs from day 20 to 24 months (Replacement, remodelling, maturation) which is the achievement and progression of your visible results.

Typically you will see results from your very first treatment, accumulating visually within the first 6-12 weeks, lasting and more significant results will become more visible after a series of treatments.

On average 4-6 sessions, 4-8 weeks apart is recommended for best progressive results when treating below the epidermis, into the dermis and hypodermis. Superficial treatment however can be performed again sooner when only targeting epidermal treatment.

The Dermalux can be performed in the week following treatment and regularly between sessions to optimise healing and further advance results.

Anthelia IPL Rejuvenation, Pigmentation, Red Veins, Acne & Rosacea

Anthelia ® IPL Advice & Information

15 mins · Free

More info
Medacare's Anthelia IPL has just been upgraded with integrated GSM technology from EFB Paris to ensure better monitoring for maintenance and to improve performance for superior results. The Anthelia is also an S-IPL which stands for Square Pulsed Light, this means the pulses last a fraction of a second longer than regular IPL devises, and the light wavelength isn't as intense, meaning it does the same job but your skin is less likely to be overheated.

ANTHELIA IPL FEES:

Isolated Area $150
Half Face $200
Full Face $300
Course $250

ANTHELIA IPL SKIN REJUVENATION

Filter your complexion, in real life. Change the appearance of your skin by unifying shades and colours, texture and tone and removing unwanted hair.

Unlike most IPLs and laser devices, the Anthélia is physician-grade, manufactured by EFB Beauté in Paris for the medical industry rather than the beauty sector, and with 26 patents, is the most efficient and secure new generation technology to TREAT AGING, PIGMENTATION, VASCULAR and ACNE CONDITIONS, guaranteeing advanced safety and unparalleled treatment results, visible from just one session, amplifying with each successive session and retained with appropriate maintenance sessions.

There can be social down time of 1-5 days post treatment depending on the level of intensity performed and treatment can be personalised to all areas of the body and face. A minimum recovery and rest period of 2-3 weeks between sessions is recommended with successive treatment. The results are spectacular because only 1 session can be enough to give a boost of radiance and unify the complexion. 5 to 6 sessions per year, spaced 2 to 3 weeks apart and a few maintenance sessions will allow you to gradually and durably remove skin problems and reduce the effects of aging.

MODERATE LEVEL LIGHT THERAPY

Treatment on the Anthelia can be performed using moderate level pulse light (less heat) for anti-aging and non-ablative phototoning and is performed at this level to remodel and stimulate repair of the extracellular matrix (ECM) for facial lifting and body smoothing. The ECM constitutes over 70% of the skin and is the central hub for repair and regeneration of the skin. As such, the ECM is the area where changes related to photodamage are most evident. Degradation of the ECM and accumulation of collagen fragments, amorphous elastin agglutinations, and abnormal cross-linkages between the collagen fragments impedes the ECM from its normal repair and regenerative capacity, which manifests as wrinkled, non-elastic skin. Moderate level pulse light is a gentle non-ablative treatment which does not violate the epidermis or cause social downtime, instead it stimulates platelet activation to rebuild the skin.

Phototensor® Anti-Aging Treatment:

+ For face lifting and body smoothing
+ For photo-aging and to reduce rhytids (lines and wrinkles)
+ For hydration capability and capacity
+ To improve skin laxity, elasticity, density and fragility
+ To stimulates the natural production of collagen and elastin
+ To tighten dilated pores for a smooth skin texture
+ To restores the skin's elasticity, hydration capability and capacity
+ To reshape and tighten for lasting rejuvenation of mature skin with a plumping effect
+ For a radiance boost and anti-aging prevention

HIGH LEVEL LIGHT THERAPY

Treatment on the Anthelia can also be performed using high level pulsed light (more heat) to remove or reduce unwanted cosmetic abnormalities such as pigmentation, red veins and viscosities, forms of dermatosis as well the removal of unwanted hair through selective photo-coagulation and photo-thermolysis. Just like repairing the skin, removing all the damage and unwanted hair is a process that progresses in stages. The Anthelia pulse light, in complete safety, eliminates excess melanin present in the epidermis, facilitating the disappearance of pigmentation and targets the hemoglobin in red blood which transmits to the vessel walls causing coagulation and eliminated by the body. The photo-thermal effect of pulsed light will accelerate the natural renewal of the cells of the epidermis to give it a uniform complexion and a homogeneous colour. Thanks to this treatment, the skin regains a new youthful radiance.

Rejuvenation Treatment:

+ For diffuse redness
+ For age spots and uneven colour
+ To unify the complexion
+ To reduces the effects of aging

Vascular Treatment:

+ For rosacea and viscosities
+ To remove couperosis, erythrosis and angiomas
+ To remove facial flushing, red veins and spider veins

ANTHELIA IPL SKIN REJUVENATION

Filter your complexion, in real life. Change the appearance of your skin by unifying shades and colours, texture and tone and removing unwanted hair.

Unlike most IPLs and laser devices, the Anthélia is physician-grade, manufactured by EFB Beauté in Paris for the medical industry rather than the beauty sector, and with 26 patents, is the most efficient and secure new generation technology to TREAT AGING, PIGMENTATION, VASCULAR and ACNE CONDITIONS, guaranteeing advanced safety and unparalleled treatment results, visible from just one session, amplifying with each successive session and retained with appropriate maintenance sessions.

There can be social down time of 1-5 days post treatment depending on the level of intensity performed and treatment can be personalised to all areas of the body and face. A minimum recovery and rest period of 2-3 weeks between sessions is recommended with successive treatment. The results are spectacular because only 1 session can be enough to give a boost of radiance and unify the complexion. 5 to 6 sessions per year, spaced 2 to 3 weeks apart and a few maintenance sessions will allow you to gradually and durably remove skin problems and reduce the effects of aging.

MODERATE LEVEL LIGHT THERAPY

Treatment on the Anthelia can be performed using moderate level pulse light (less heat) for anti-aging and non-ablative phototoning and is performed at this level to remodel and stimulate repair of the extracellular matrix (ECM) for facial lifting and body smoothing. The ECM constitutes over 70% of the skin and is the central hub for repair and regeneration of the skin. As such, the ECM is the area where changes related to photodamage are most evident. Degradation of the ECM and accumulation of collagen fragments, amorphous elastin agglutinations, and abnormal cross-linkages between the collagen fragments impedes the ECM from its normal repair and regenerative capacity, which manifests as wrinkled, non-elastic skin. Moderate level pulse light is a gentle non-ablative treatment which does not violate the epidermis or cause social downtime, instead it stimulates platelet activation to rebuild the skin.

Phototensor® Anti-Aging Treatment:

+ For face lifting and body smoothing
+ For photo-aging and to reduce rhytids (lines and wrinkles)
+ For hydration capability and capacity
+ To improve skin laxity, elasticity, density and fragility
+ To stimulates the natural production of collagen and elastin
+ To tighten dilated pores for a smooth skin texture
+ To restores the skin's elasticity, hydration capability and capacity
+ To reshape and tighten for lasting rejuvenation of mature skin with a plumping effect
+ For a radiance boost and anti-aging prevention

HIGH LEVEL LIGHT THERAPY

Treatment on the Anthelia can also be performed using high level pulsed light (more heat) to remove or reduce unwanted cosmetic abnormalities such as pigmentation, red veins and viscosities, forms of dermatosis as well the removal of unwanted hair through selective photo-coagulation and photo-thermolysis. Just like repairing the skin, removing all the damage and unwanted hair is a process that progresses in stages. The Anthelia pulse light, in complete safety, eliminates excess melanin present in the epidermis, facilitating the disappearance of pigmentation and targets the hemoglobin in red blood which transmits to the vessel walls causing coagulation and eliminated by the body. The photo-thermal effect of pulsed light will accelerate the natural renewal of the cells of the epidermis to give it a uniform complexion and a homogeneous colour. Thanks to this treatment, the skin regains a new youthful radiance.

Rejuvenation Treatment:

+ For diffuse redness
+ For age spots and uneven colour
+ To unify the complexion
+ To reduces the effects of aging

More info
A Dermaplane without facial treatment is focused mainly on the removal of fine vellus hairs (peach fuzz) and unwanted terminal hairs to give you your confidence back if visual facial hair is a concern of yours.

The full facial Epidermal Leveling Treatment is a mechanical form of exfoliation, similar in theory to microdermabrasion. A sterile surgical scalpel gently removes the top layer of dead skin, the stratum corneum, along with fine vellus hair (peach fuzz). The treatment is usually repeated every 3-4 weeks to maintain and continue results.

This treatment will improve the texture and tone of your skin. The result is amazing glowing skin that looks refreshed and renewed. This process also aids product penetration, such as skin peels and active skin care.

We can combine Epidermal Levelling with tailored skin peels and LED treatments as an add on depending on the individual needs of your skin and what you’re wanting to achieve.

+ (II+) Medium Depth Focal Use Only (Social down time)

TREATMENT INFORMATION:

+ Treatment cycle 4-6 sessions
+ Interval of 2 weeks minimum between peels
+ Maintenance 4 per year or as required

ORGANIC ACIDS:

Organic acids exert a profound influence on the skin, effecting lipids, proteins and corneocyte cohesiveness to name a few. Lower concentrations of acids reduce inter-corneocyte cohesion directly above the granular layer. Higher concentrations of acids result in detachment of keratinocytes. A chemical peel is also known chemoexfoliation or chemoablation, and applied for targeted cutaneous ablation at a desired depth, ultimately resulting in a rapid and predictable improvement in the clinical appearance of skin.

This results in a few major effects:

A quickening of the cell cycle.
Removing cell structures replacing them with healthy new ones.
The smoothing of the stratum corneum (skin).
An increase in extracellular matrix, hyaluronic acid and connective tissue.

In more detail, the caustic agents used for chemical peels cause controlled keratocoagulation and denaturation of the proteins within the epidermis and dermis, resulting in the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Such targeted inflammation activates the normal healing signal cascade, including stimulation, development and deposition of new dermal collagen and elastin, reorganisation of structural scaffold proteins and dermal connective tissue, and regeneration of new keratinocytes. This results in rejuvenation and thickening of the epidermis and an increase in dermal volume. Simultaneously, the keratocoagulation and subsequent exfoliation result in improvement in superficial and medium depth dyspigmentation. While there might be subtle variability between the types of chemical agents used and their intended cosmetic outcome (i.e., reduction of redness vs. dyspigmentation vs. scarring), the general goal of a chemical peel is to improve the clinical appearance of skin by decreasing the quantity and quality of rhytids and/or acne scars, reducing inflammatory and noninflammatory acne lesions, improving dyspigmentation, and producing an overall more youthful appearance.

The chemical type or combination, strength and number of layers or applications required is individual to each condition and selected after consultation and skin imaging. A peel can be performed as a single treatment or for the very best results a series of professionally administered peels supported by a home care regime is recommended. Results can be seen from the first treatment and are progressive. Associated down time and healing rate of each peel is directly proportional to the depth of the peel and inversely related to the cosmetic outcome desired such as new skin tone and texture.

Peeling is also an ideal tool for complimenting or boosting other procedures such as anti-aging and depigmenting treatments, mesotherapy, facial implants, botulinum toxin, radiotherapy, phototherapy, etc.

Mesoéclat ® Facial Rejuvenation Peel

30 mins · $239

More info
Exclusive to Medacare in Southland, the Mesoeclat® facial procedure improves all aspects of the skin. The Mesoeclat® method consists of three complementary systems, whose aim is to..

+ Stimulate the renewal of the surface layers of the epidermis
+ Increase the luminosity of the skin
+ Moisturise in depth
+ Eliminate wrinkles and expression lines

The Mesoeclat system is an intensive rejuvenation program consisting of 5 sessions of treatments at 10-14 day intervals or can be used as a single treatment to shock the skin into shape when needed. Each session of treatment consists of three phases, which act at different levels to transform the skin causing..

+ Visibly younger skin
+ Enhanced brightness
+ Reduction of wrinkles
+ Softer, firmer more uniform skin
+ Treatment of skin imperfections
+ Increased hydration, volume and density
+ Immediate and long term effects

Why do Mesoeclat®..

Skin problems and aging are produced by the inexorable passage of time, genetic factors and the bad habits that we adopt in our daily routine, which lead to premature cell death, causing the skin cells to lose the capacity to perform their functions correctly, reducing the skin’s elasticity, flexibility and clarity. All of this results in a skin that is parchment-like, lacking vitality and health. Wrinkles and imperfections appear, the skin loses its natural tone, luminosity and density, becoming lackluster and unhealthy.

Mesoéclat® stimulates and improves your skins metabolism, which is a life sustaining, metabolic reaction, that takes place in your cells, all of which are chemical. If your metabolism slows, your cells don't exfoliate as well, collagen and elastin is not replaced and damage is not repaired. Every skin concern from sensitivity, to acne and ageing is metabolic, even infection is sensed as a metabolic stress, promoting a pro-inflammatory response. Your metabolism keeps you youthful, healthy and alive. An infants skin cells renew every 14 days, when you hit your 20s, your cells renew every 22 days, with age it can take over 50 days. This gradual deceleration doesn't just effect the way it looks, it effects your skins inherent functions. Your cells ability to respond to nutrients slows, which are not as easily absorbed in your 30s as they was in your 20s, changing the way you can respond to skincare, with can be revived by Mesoéclat®.

Carbonyl stress, which is a biochemical change in the skin due to too many highly reactive unstable chemical species formed by different cellular entities called free radicals, increasing concentrations of malondialdehyde, lipid peroxide, nitric oxide products and protein carbonyl (carbonyl stress - oxidative, hyperoxidant and nitrosative). The increased production of these without a proper effective endogenous and exogenous antioxidant system (such as Vitamins A, C and E etc) generates a condition of severe oxidative stress with the destruction of structural proteins and cellular changes causes functional impairments that lead to the development of skin disorders, acute and chronic inflammatory processes and skin cancers, as well as aesthetic changes to the skin such as stains, marks and lines in a chronic aging process. Mesoeclat® is one of the worlds most effective and leading treatments to combat carbonyl stress and glycation directly and effectively which is why it improves all aspects of the skin including its health and appearance.

Mesoéclat is an immediate effect skin regenerating treatment that acts directly on the effects of time, skin health and aging. This treatment helps promote the body’s natural defences and cell regeneration mechanisms, giving the skin all the necessary elements for improved nourishment, optimum hydration, skin health and appearance. It stimulates the skins ability to fight the ageing process, removing the signs of wrinkles and expression lines. The result is a rejuvenating effect that brightens and revitalizes the face in a minimum time span, leaving the skin softer, tighter and more uniform. Mesoeclat® treatment can help you maintain and improve the condition of your skin for years to come. It is beauty with purpose.

How is Mesoeclat® performed..

The mesoéclat® method comprises the simultaneous actions of three complementary systems targeted at brightening the skin, facilitating the elimination of the outer epidermal layers and deep nourishment of the skin, helping to attenuate small facial wrinkles, blemishes and imperfections. It seeks to counteract the effects of time and exposure to the sun. Application can be started any time of year, but always with the understanding that sun is the skin’s main “enemy”. So it is essential to apply moisturizing sun protection from mesoestetic® to protect the skin from sun damage and prevent the appearance of pigmentation problems. The first mesoéclat® solution is made from a salicylic acid base, which has an exfoliating effect on the skin, promoting cell renew and helping decrease and treat imperfections. Following the solution, the mesoéclat® ampoules are applied with there powerful combination of organic silica, chondroitin sulphate, L-carnitine and lipoid acid, which exerts the powerful regenerating effect. For optimal effects and best results, the mesoéclat® method can be performed as a full treatment cycle of 5-6 recurring sessions with 2 weeks between sessions and maintenance sessions can be done monthly. Alternatively it can be performed as and when needed, at intervals that suit your treatment plan or as one off treatment for a special occasion as close to the even as possible (ultimately on the day).

Phase I: Pre-treatment. Skin cleansing. An in depth, deep cleansing of the skin.

Phase II: Solution one. Preparation of the skin, the mesoéclat® exfoliating solution is applied to clean, dry skin, applying friction to the surface of the face, neck and neckline for epidermal renewal, reduction of imperfections and the preparation of the skin for phase II. The solution is left on until dry and not removed. A mild to moderate tingling sensation may occur during this phase. This can be alleviated by gently fanning the affected area.

Phase III: Solution Two. A mesoéclat® ampoule is applied, across the entire treatment area. It must be left until dry and is not removed. This is an intensive shock treatment and a more heated sensation can be experienced during this phase, fanning the face can make the treatment more comfortable. This is the intensive anti-aging and skin regeneration phase that also provides an immediate effect of volume and luminosity (tight, smooth radiant skin). The hydra vital face mask can be applied after this ampoule for deep hydration.

Phase V: Post-treatment. The mesoéclat® cream is applied using gentle upward strokes for refinement. This treatment cream has a high content in lactokine, kojic acid and vitamin C provides hydrating, brightening and anti-oxidising action produces a pleasant sensation on the skin. A high factor sun protection called Melan 130+ will be applied with depigmenting ingredients to further help regulate melanin synthesis by reinforcing the preventative anti spot action. It is a coloured texture that provides a natural tone and softens imperfections, unifying even the skin tone so that when you leave clinic your skin looks its absolute best instantly while the effects that create long term effects start to take place.

Home maintenance treatment..

The results of the mesoéclat method are reinforced by the daily application mesoéclat® cream, with its high content in lactokine, kojic acid and vitamin C provides hydrating, brightening and anti-oxidising action. Wrinkles and skin imperfections (acne, scaring and pigment) are attenuated and the skin progressively recovers its firmer clearer aspect.

As a complement the use of the mesoestetic anti aging flash cream is recommended because of its regenerating and hydrating effects which is avail.

It is also important to use sun protection before and after initiating cosmetic treatment to reduce negative effects of sun exposure on the skin and to protect the results of the treatment long term. The optimal sun protection cream for the mesoéclat® method is melan 130+ pigment control or a mesoprotech® formula which are both next-generation skincare technology that combines the highest solar protection with specific ingredients to make each a unique product. They protection against UVB + UVA radiation and against visible light (HEV) and infrared radiation (IR). They contain optimal combinations of physical, biological and/or chemical filters to provide maximum effectiveness and cosmetic benefits.

C.prof depigmentation solution is a powerful combination of active ingredients with corrective action of pigment disorders, regulating production and removing the melanin present in epidermal cells, responsible for visible pigmentation. It also contains antioxidant agents that regulate melanin overproduction, evening out skin tone and providing brightness and vitality. It is for the treatment of moderate hyperpigmentation (solar or senile lentigo) or PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation) in fair and medium photo-types (I-III).

Melanogenesis consists of the production of melanin inside melanocytes, with several triggering factors in this process (sun radiation, genetic predisposition, hormonal changes, inflammatory changes). Once synthesised, the melanin formed is transferred through the melanocyte dendrites to epidermal cells and continues rising to the upper skin layers where it finally gets dark. Excessive accumulation of melanin in the skin surface ultimately results in the formation of visible spots.

Each of the active ingredients of the c.prof depigmentation solution acts in different stages of the melanogenesis process. Prior to activation of the melanocyte (tranexamic acid), during the synthesis of melanin (N-acetyl glucosamine + idebenone) and after formation of melanin (vitamin C).

C.PROF MESOTOX MESOTHERAPY

C.prof mesotox solution is an alternative to botox or can be used in conjunction with it. Once delivered into the skin, it inhibits dermal micro-contractions and prevents the formation of lines. There are three basic proteins forming the structure of the skin, fibrin, elastin and collagen. When these are damaged, expression lines appear, as a result of the natural contraction of facial muscles. Several factors make more visible this type of skin aging, such as the passage of time, sun exposure, lifestyle and other environmental or extrinsic factors. The synergistic peptides of c.prof mesotox solution work jointly to provide a higher efficacy degree than when a single peptide is administered, even at double concentration, inhibiting skin microcontractions that cause this type of wrinkle.

C.PROF MESOPEPTIDE MESOTHERAPY

C.prof 014 mesopeptide solution is a biomimetic peptide formula for dermal redensification and optimal arrangement, to regain facial definition. It helps to improve the firmness and structure of the cellular matrix to treat thin, aged skins, with a loss of facial oval definition and facial flaccidity. Biomimetic peptides redensify the skin thanks to the collagen inducing activity and its improvement of fibril arrangement. It contains Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 to stimulates collagen synthesis, help removes wrinkles, tightens and moisturises the skin. It also contains hyaluronic acid for its highly moisturising effect and Acetyl Tetrapeptide-9 to improve skin tissue and stimulate Lumican to achieve optimum, functional arrangement.

C.PROF PHOTOAGING MESOTHERAPY

C.prof photoaging solution brightens, moisturises and firms the skin for a photo-protective anti-aging effect. Photoaging is a process induced by continuous exposition to ultraviolet rays. It provokes molecular and structural damage to the skin such as: formation of free radicals, reduction in collagen synthesis, degradation of the elastin, thickening of the epidermis, etc. The c.prof photoaging solution counteracts the manifestations of skin aging, protecting the skin from environmental aggressions and other factors such as stress, fatigue, smoking, pollution, the things that can prematurely or aggressively age our skin, to keep it looking younger and healthier, for longer. Key delivery of actives include hyaluronic acid, vit C, taurine and idebenone.
