Serious skin (and hair) concerns are best left in the hands of the experts. The range of cosmeceutical salon-only offerings available today mean that no matter the problem area, there is an expert and treatment to help.
Below, BD has rounded up the salon-only brands harnessing science and innovation to tackle the toughest of beauty dilemmas:
Elizabeth Arden PRO was born from the successful collaboration between renowned beauty brand Elizabeth Arden and cosmeceutical celebrity Joe Lewis. A science-heavy professional skincare offering, the brand primarily targets anti-ageing through ingredient discoveries and technical developments.
Hair saviour, colorpHlex, is a treatment that keeps even the most heat styled locks looking (and feeling) luscious. The product helps to reverse the damage of chemical processing, including that caused by bleaching, straightening, perming and colouring.
With a belief that what is not included in products is as important as what is, Synergie Skin is a brand of skincare that combines the best of science and nature. The company incorporates high-grade actives and minerals into its products, avoiding parabens and artificial fragrances to reduce the possibility of irritation and damage.
First created in 2001, Fraxel was introduced as the first resurfacing laser treatment. As somewhat of a skin overhaul, the treatment creates thousands of microscopic treatment zones, replacing old and damaged cells with fresh, healthy skin.
Isolaz is a treatment that will make acne-sufferers rejoice. The machine targets the root causes of acne via vacuum extraction to purify pores, broadband light to eliminate bacteria and a profusion finish to deliver topicals into the skin.
Liposonix was developed as a sure-fire way to shift stubborn fat for those who are close to their ideal body weight. The non-invasive treatment - a product of iNova Aesthetics - took 10 years to develop and test before its release into market.
mesoestetic
If you have a skin complaint, mesoestetic can treat it. The professional-only range is endorsed by global scientific studies and uses high concentrations of actives to treat such conditions as cellulite, dull skin, and the signs of ageing.
Tapping into the benefits of light therapy is LightStim. The range uses patented Multiwave™ LED light therapy to stimulate the body’s ability to generate new proteins, reducing the signs of ageing as well as temporarily helping to relieve pain and inflammation (such as arthritis).
As the name suggests, HydroPeptide® is a peptide-based range of beauty offerings. The brand has won more than 30 awards to date, thanks to the winning ingredient combination in its anti-ageing skincare.
This British offering focuses on delivering cosmeceutical technology in the gentlest way possible, making it suitable for those with sensitive skin types. The brand does this with the help of non-acid derivatives and patented anti-erythema technology.
