NEW TREATMENT FEATURE: NANOPORE PIGMENTATION THERAPY – Latest Breakthrough Treatment for Melasma & Other Skin Pigmentations

WHAT IS NANOPORE PIGMENTATION THERAPY?
NanoPore Pigmentation Therapy is a new treatment system, developed in Europe. It is a system of direct delivery of skin lightening ingredients to target the pigment cells inside the skin, which causes dark skin patches like Melasma and Post-inflammatory Hyperpigmentation. The skin becomes more receptive to the key ingredients that are infused because of this technique, thus, hastening the skin lightening results.

HOW MANY SESSIONS ARE NEEDED?
The number of sessions will depend on the severity of the pigmentations. An average of 5 to 6 sessions may be needed for better results. Each session can be done every 3 to 4 weeks.

IS THE TREATMENT PAINFUL?
We apply a numbing cream 30 to 45 minutes before the procedure, to decrease the pain that will be felt during the treatment. The sensation will be a mildly pricking feeling during the treatment.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING AND AFTER THE TREATMENT?
Immediately after the treatment, there will be redness and swelling which will last for around 2 to 3 days. There may be transient or temporary darkening of the pigmentations, which can last for up to 2 weeks. The lightening results can be seen after 3 to 4 weeks.

ARE THERE ANY RESTRICTIONS AFTER THE PROCEDURE?
We recommend that the patient avoid washing the area for 24 hours. Extreme sun exposure should be avoided for at least 2 weeks after the treatment. We recommend using a Sunblock/Sunscreen everyday.

NEORETIN® Serum Booster & Gel Cream SPF50 – Powerful Combination to Clear & Brighten Skin Pigmentations for an Even Complexion

WHAT IS NEORETIN®?

NeoRetin® helps clear and brighten your skin, creating an even complexion. NeoRetin® helps control the appearance of your skin’s pigmentation by using clinically-proven ingredients to tackle every stage of the melanin production cycle, while the patented mild for all skin types formulation of these ingredients safely maximizes the beneficial effects to your skin. NeoRetin® has been thoroughly tested in clinical conditions and has been found to be effective on a range of skin types and levels of pigmentation.

HOW DOES NEORETIN® WORK?
NeoRetin® works hard to treat your skin in a number of ways. It is effective at tackling dark skin pigmentation by keeping your skin fresh and renewed, as well as actively whitening your skin. Additionally, it provides added protection from broad spectrum UVA and UVB light as well as keeping your skin moisturised and feeling great.

NeoRetin® uses a unique combination of Vitamin A ingredients to help increase cell turnover and exfoliation which speeds up the shedding of the darker skin cells. These ingredients are delivered through the epidermis using unique Retinsphere™ technology, which helps prolong the activity and bioavailability of the ingredients. .

NeoRetin®’s Whitening Booster System contains clinically proven brightening and lightening agents that prevent the development and transfer of melanin at every stage of its production cycle.

The range also includes broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection, preventing any further melanin production, as well as protecting the skin from the other negative effects of UV exposure, reducing the production of “reactive oxygen species” or “free radicals” that cause sun damage and even skin cancer.

Finally, NeoRetin’s moisturising formulation locks moisture into the epidermis and optimises your skin’s tolerability so that it not only looks great, but feels great too.

HOW DO I USE NEORETIN®?
Apply the NeoRetin® Gel cream SPF50 on the whole face in the morning.
Apply the NeoRetin® Serum Booster on skin pigmentations at night.

WHAT IS PICOSURE?
PicoSure is the world’s fastest, safest and revolutionary laser specifically designed to treat tattoos and pigmented (brown) spots. It is also very effective laser for treating acne scars, rejuvenating and tightening the skin and reducing wrinkles.

HOW DOES PICOSURE WORK?
PicoSure laser focuses on your problem areas whether it’s brown spots, sun damage, freckles, pigmented lesions, aged & wrinkled skin or acne scars. In the past, lasers have relied on intense heat energy to remove pigment from the skin, which may be painful and lead to significant skin redness and downtime. Now, with the breakthrough picosecond technology of PicoSure, the results are more dramatic and much better with less pain and less downtime than traditional lasers.

WHY IS PICOSURE MORE EFFECTIVE THAN OTHER LASERS?
PicoSure offers a gentler treatment, because of its patented technology of delivering ultra short pulses that create an intense impact with less trauma to the skin.

IS PICOSURE PAINFUL?
There is some pain associated for tattoo removal using PicoSure although this less painful than traditional tattoo removal. We use numbing medication, applied topically 30 minutes prior to the procedure.
PicoSure for melasma, freckles, dark scars/spots and for wrinkles is not painful since the intensity for this is lower than for tattoo removal.

HOW LONG WILL EACH TREATMENT SESSION BE?
Sessions average about 15 minutes each; your actual session length will depend on the size of the tattoo or the treated area. Each session is scheduled about 4 to 6 weeks apart to allow the skin to naturally clear away the pigment of the spot or the ink between treatments.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO I NEED?
The number of treatments is based on the color of the tattoo or the dark spot, the type of tattoo ink used and your skin and the severity of the skin problem (wrinkles, acne scars, melasma, etc.). You will see results even after the first session. For example, brown spots may need 2-4 treatments; tattoos may take 3 or more treatments (depending on the type of pigment); acne scars may take 1 to 3 treatments; wrinkles/aging skin may need 1-2 treatments, again, based on your individual situation.
