A facial resurfacing technique that uses a chemical solution to improve and smooth the texture of the skin by removing its damaged outer layers. We offer a variety of peels to suit a range of skin concerns.

Wrinkles are irregularities in the body’s surface that present as creases, ridges, or folds in the skin. The skin is comprised of multiple layers of tissue. The three most important components are the epidermis or surface layer of skin, the dermis lying immediately beneath the epidermis, and the hypodermis lying between deeper body tissues and the visible surface skin. Connective tissue (collagen), fat, hair follicles, sweat glands, nerves, and blood vessels lie within the dermis and provide skin tone. The supportive structure of the hypodermis is made of this fat and connective tissue. Loss of skin elasticity and tone occurs when collagen and fat deteriorates from environmental factors, ageing, or disease. Skin grows from the bottom up. Cells in the hypodermis grow, mature, die, and fall from the body as skin flakes. They are replaced by cells in the dermis migrating outward toward the skin’s surface. These cells in turn are replaced by cells from the epidermis. Surface cells succumb to mitosis, the natural cell death process, and fall off the body. The regeneration cycle to go from dead cells to new surface skin cells (i.e., maturation of hypodermis to dermis and then to epidermis) takes about a month in our youth. The skin cells are nurtured by blood vessels rising within the hypodermis.

Dermal fillers are manufactured from bacteria that closely resemble the naturally-occurring hyaluronic acid. These bacteria help the skin retain more water, and this makes it smooth and tight. The cosmetic treatment will start off with a discussion on what results you wish to see and determine which filler to use and how we should deliver the treatment. The fillers are injected in specific sections of the skin where you wish to correct wrinkles and other signs of ageing. Local anaesthesia may be used to reduce discomfort during the procedure. Cosmetic fillers work temporarily and usually last for a period of 6 to 18 months.
