Skin lift or Rejuvenation

Affecting many people from their thirties onward, the signs of sun damage include patches of abnormal colour, rough skin texture, broken capillaries and fine lines. The combination of a mild peel followed by photo-therapy is a new advanced method for repairing the effects of sun damage.

The first part of a combined therapy involves applying a peel to the skin. In just a few minutes the peel will remove the top layers of dead skin and penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin to promote production of new collagen. After the peel the skin has a noticeably smoother feel and glowing complexion.

Secondly, photo-therapy uses intense pulses of red light applied all over the face to stimulate the growth of new collagen and elastin fibres in the deeper layers of the skin, which improves firmness and overall texture of the skin. Additionally, pulses of yellow light can be used to remove capillaries and abnormal pigmentation. The procedure is quick, and gives long term removal of all the visible signs of ageing.

 

 

Pigmentation Removal

As we age, sun exposure can lead to the development of small patches of permanent darker skin on the face, neck and back of the hands. Techniques such as dermabrasion, chemical peels and bleaching products will lessen their appearance, however these techniques can result in a reddening of the skin following treatment.

Intense pulsed light treatment removes pigmentation by stimulating renewal of the upper layers of skin from underneath, giving an effective and non-invasive alternative. The pulses of light are absorbed by the excess melanin, creating heat that destroys the uppermost pigmented skin cells, and the area is renewed after 10 -14 days. The light pulse also stimulates the growth of new collagen and elastin fibres in the skin, which improves firmness and overall texture, helping to over-come the effects of sun damage.

The treatments are fast, allowing the whole area or multiple areas to be treated at each session. The light pulse is very short, causing only a mild sensation during treatment. With each treatment the pigmentation fades.

Vascular therapy

There are several ways to removal unsightly blood vessels that appear on the surface of the skin. Techniques such as diathermy and sclerotherapy involve the insertion of a needle into the vein and the application of a current or a chemical to kill the vessel. Both of these techniques are invasive and can cause significant skin trauma, as well as requiring several long treatment sessions.
Treatment with light (intense pulsed and laser) is unique as it destroys unsightly blood vessels by sending very short pulses of light into the skin, destroying the vein using heat. The vessels shrink over the following weeks and are re-absorbed by the body.
All areas of the body can be treated, and particular success is seen with facial problems such as permanent red flushing, broken thread veins and red spots. The treatments are fast, allowing the whole area or multiple areas to be treated at each monthly session. As the light pulse is very short, only a moderate sensation is felt during treatment. With each treatment the number of visible vessels decline.

Cellulite reduction

Cellulite vacuum therapy is one of many therapies used to tackle the hard-to-shift, dimpled fat that is often found on thighs, knees, buttocks, stomach and the tops of arms. A vacuum is created around the problem area, lifting the cellulite away from the muscle, thus encouraging blood flow, stimulating lymphatic drainage and amplifying the effects of massage or exercise. Cellulite vacuum therapy is a modern version of the ancient Chinese art of “cupping” that is now a popular alternative treatment.  Used in conjunction with a lymph drainage massage around the areas this treatment reduces the cellulite formulated under the skin

Long term or short term use

You can easily remove micro ring hair extensions and because they are also easy to put in it doesn’t matter if you want to use them for a long or short period of time, the low cost also means that you don’t end up getting poor value if you only use them for a day or so. If you do use them long term they should stay in your hair without problems, though they may need to be repositioned as your hair grows. If you buy virgin (unprocessed) Remy hair it will last longer as it will still have the cuticle in tact with all strands in each weft pointing in the same direction that they originally grew.

Reusable and repositionable

Micro rings hair extensions can easily be taken out in such a way that they can be reused by de-flattening the ring to release them. This makes them great value even if you only use them for a day or so at a time. Also you can reposition micro rings hair extensions easily either if you add them in the wrong position or where your hair grows so you need to move them so they are higher up on your scalp.

 

Pre Bonded Hair Extension

Pre-bonded hair extensions are a popular choice for those looking to have extensions permanently applied for longer term wear.

How long will my pre-bonded hair last?

Pre-bonded extensions should have an average life of anywhere from 3 to 4 months. This is only if they are applied and cared for correctly. Your salon should invite you back for regular maintenance visits as well!

Can I straighten or curl my prebonded hair?

Absolutely! In fact you can treat them just like you would your own hair! Just remember, like your own hair, human hair extensions are not indestructible. So treat them with care and respect! Using a heat protector spray will help too! And be sure to avoid applying heat directly to the bonds!

Micro Weft Extension

Micro Weft Hair Extensions is a brilliant method which is completely glue and heat free.

Micro Weft Hair Extensions involves using a weft of hair which is a long seam that the hair is attached to at the top (like used for clip-in extensions).

Wefts of hair come in a variety of colours, lengths up to 22 inches and styles i.e. straight, body wave, curly and different hair textures i.e. Remy, European or Yaki

Micro Weft Hair Extensions add instant volume and length to your own hair ideal for bridal hair or any special occasion or just bored of waiting for your own hair to grow and want an instant change.

Micro Weft Hair Extensions is a great budget buster and fantastic for people who want to try Hair Extensions for the first time.

How it works:

Micro Weft Hair Extension application method is much quicker than the individual strand by strand micro ring or pre bonded method.

Because there are less micro rings that have to be applied to the hair weft this dramatically reduces fitting time.

The weft of hair is placed horizontally in strips against the head.

Small sections of hair and hair from the weft are gently pulled through micro rings which are clamped down to secure the weft is in place, these sections are placed ¾ inch apart.

This is continued in sections until almost reaching the top of the head.

Like the application process the removal process is just as quick.

Micro Weft Hair Extensions are the same as knots, Micro Ring or Pre Bonded Hair Extensions they are un-detectable with hair up.

How long does my own hair have to be?

Minimum length approximately 5-6 inches.

How long does it take to apply the Micro Weft Hair Extensions?

Application takes approx 2-3 hours depending on your own hair and thickness.

How long does the Micro Weft Hair Extensions last?

With care and regular repositioning of rings they can last up to 2-4 months.

How do Micro Weft Hair Extensions feel compared to knots, Micro Ring or Pre-bonded Hair Extensions?

Micro Weft Hair Extensions can feel heavier but with all hair extensions it may take a few days to get used to them.

What is repositioning of the Micro Weft Hair Extensions?

Repositioning of rings is where your own hair has grown and new rings are replaced and the weft is moved back the original position, which is usually required every 4-6 weeks depending how fast your hair grows.
