When warmer weather arises, we may swap out our heavier creams for lighter lotions and our creamy cleansers for the foaming variety, but making a real change to how skin looks this summer goes beyond simply using the right skincare. To jumpstart that coveted summer glow, it pays to invest in a treatment that will really make a difference. From top to toe, here are four treatments that allow us to go one step further with our beauty routines.
Super Boost at Clinic 42
Long haul flights, air conditioning, swimming and sun exposure can all have an impact on how our skin looks and ages. But this injectable hyaluronic acid treatment is here to help combat the harsh effects of summer. Perfect to prep for the upcoming warmer months, this quick procedure promotes a hydrated, glowing and smooth complexion without volumising the face, using Restylane Vital. Taking just 30 minutes to give a boost of hydration that will last through summer and beyond (for at least 6 months), Super Boost relatively pain-free and there is minimum downtime required.
Dermapen at Skin Institute
Dermal needling targets sun damage, wrinkles, acne scarring and pigmentation – so whatever your skin concern is there’s a high chance Dermapen could be just the thing to repair and replenish this spring and looking ahead to summer. Not only is microneedling trending, with it being one of the top treatments of 2019, but it is highly effective in as few as three sessions. It helps give smoother, healthier and more uniform skin thanks to the specialised dermal roller that creates micro-punctures on the skin’s surface layer. This helps produce collagen, tighten skin and restore elasticity, without doing any damage to the skin itself.
DermaFrac at The Face Place
Resulting in beautiful, glowing skin without downtime, DermaFrac simultaneously delivers customised serums with micro-needling. A great treatment to have in the lead up to a big event, the infusion device used is completely pain-free and offers precise penetration around hard-to-reach areas such as the eyes and nose. The superfine needles deliver high-grade active ingredients to the dermal layer, helping stimulate collagen production and cell renewal. Say hello to plumper, firmer and smoother skin! DermaFrac can work as a standalone treatment and can complement existing treatments, but The Face Place recommends a course of 6 treatments at weekly intervals or monthly maintenance.
Laser Hair Removal at Caci
It’s a great time to book in an appointment for laser hair removal at Caci – because they have just started using a new type of laser that makes for a more comfortable experience than ever before. Compared to VPL (Variable Pulsed Light), the Diode Laser is renowned for being fast and treating a wide range of skin and hair tones. The laser also features a cooling tip which makes the treatment more comfortable. With the Diode treatment, you must shave the area beforehand, which is great for those places you may not want any hair showing in between appointments – think chin or upper lip! Laser hair removal is one of those life-changing treatments that allows you to stay hair-free all summer long (and year round) without the hassle of shaving and waxing regularly.
