Services Provided:

  • Laser hair removal
    Laser hair removal is the best option for smooth and permanent hair free skin. Hair growth happens in multiple phases, active anagen phase, resting catagen phase and falling telogen phase. For permanent hair removal the hair is destroyed in the anagen phase. 

    Procedure:
    The laser emits intense light into the hair follicles. It targets the melanin in the follicles which converts into heat. Light and heat together destroy the follicle’s ability to produce new hair.8-12 sessions are recommended for best results.

  • Chemical peels
    For improved skin texture and appearance, chemical peels are used to eliminate wrinkles, freckles, melasma, skin damage, acne, dullness and pigmentation. It replenishes and rejuvenates the skin and makes it even toned and lustrous. 

    Procedure: 
    Depending on the damage and skin type, our dermatologist will recommend you a superficial, medium or a deep peel. After removing excess oil, an acidic solution is applied on to the skin that exfoliates the skin and causes it to peel off. 3-4 sittings may be required for the most efficient result.

  • Dermapen treatment
    Dermapen is a micro needling device that rejuvenates, tightens and lifts skin by natural collagen and elastin generation. It treats fine lines, wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, alopecia and even reduces the pore size. 

    Procedure: 
    Needles ranging from .25mm to 2.5mm pierce the skin vertically by causing minimum epidermal damage. Penetration of the dermis and epidermis layers creates micro injuries at specific depths, which signals the body to remodel the damaged area and the reproduction of collagen and elastin is triggered. As a result, smoother and better looking scar-free skin is accomplished.
