ICP Peel
An ICP peel is administrated in 5 stages, including a home care system, essential to the effectiveness of the peel.
It uses a chemical solution in order to improve the skin's appearance and correct uneven skin pigmentation. It can be performed on the face, hands and all other body areas.
It is particularly effective on hyperpigmentation related to pregnancy, hormone imbalance and sun damage.

Semi-Permanent Make-Up
Our new semi-permanent make-up is a non-surgical treatment that simulates perfectly applied make-up, giving you a subtle, natural looking cosmetic effect that will last morning and night, day after day.
Pigment is implanted into the upper layer of the skin using a surgical pen. The implanted pigment will gradually fade with time, depending upon factors such as a person's age and the colour implanted. Several areas can be treated by our experienced practitioner, including eyes and lips.

IPL Hair Removal (available at Dorchester)
Intense Pulse Light (IPL) hair removal is a fast, effective, painless and long-lasting way to remove unwanted bodily or facial hair. The IPL used in this process emits a beam which is absorbed by the pigment in the hair. This damages the hair and its follicle resulting in removal and significantly reduced re-growth. Treatment is usually over 4 to 6 visits and will be tailored to your individual needs. A course of sessions is necessary because individual hairs go through a cycle of change; growing, resting and dying off, prior to new growth. Unwanted hair is destroyed within 1-2 weeks. Once the initial treatment period is complete you may have to come back occasionally for a top up treatment.

IPL hair removal is suitable for almost any area where you want to get rid of hair. The duration of treatment will depend upon the size of the area to be treated. As an example, a small area such as the upper lip would take about 10 minutes.

Most people, male and female, can benefit from this treatment, although it is contra-indicated for those under 18 years of age. If you have a suntan you will not be treated until your tan has faded, and this treatment is not suitable on areas where hair is very light blond or grey.

IPL Photo Rejuvenation (available at Dorchester)
The signs of aging and sun damage are typically most visible on a person's face. While numerous treatments from simple creams to major surgeries exist to improve various facial flaws, skin specialists have always sought dramatic improvement with low-risk treatments and no 'down time'.

Additionally, many conventional treatment options can only address one condition at a time, entailing a prolonged recovery period, considerable pain and potential side effects.

Photo Rejuvenation using Intense Pulse Light (IPL) can simultaneously safely and effectively treat a wide variety of facial concerns, such as broken capillaries, skin discolouration, sun damage, age spots, freckles, mottled pigmentation and symptoms of Rosacea.

This effective treatment can also help with a variety of benign skin conditions, such as facial skin imperfections, the signs of aging, birthmarks, unsightly veins and other blemishes. It offers a safe, non-invasive solution that can be tailored to your individual condition and skin type, providing superior cosmetic results and outstanding satisfaction.
The face has an extensive network of veins and tiny blood vessels called capillaries. Over time, ageing, trauma, sun exposure and certain lifestyle factors, cause a number of them to break appearing as red streaks or blotches on the face. This treatment can eliminate damaged veins and capillaries by removing all traces of these unsightly blemishes.

Rosacea is a skin ailment that leaves people looking red-faced and flushed. Rosacea can also cause pimples and or blisters on the nose and cheeks. For both men and women, we can successfully treat redness without injuring the surrounding healthy skin, while greatly reducing the episodes of flushing with long-term effectiveness.
