    1. What is Morpheus Inmode?

      Morpheus Inmode is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency technology.

      It is designed to improve skin texture, reduce wrinkles, and stimulate collagen production.Morpheus Inmode is versatile and can be used on various areas of the face and body.

      Common treatment areas include the face, neck, and areas with loose or sagging skin.

    2. How does Morpheus Inmode work?

      The treatment involves the use of tiny needles that penetrate the skin, delivering radiofrequency energy to the deeper layers. This process stimulates collagen and elastin production, leading to firmer, smoother skin.

    3. Is Morpheus Inmode painful?

      A topical anesthetic is typically applied to minimize discomfort during the procedure. Most patients experience mild to moderate discomfort, but the sensation varies from person to person.

    4. Is there downtime after Morpheus Inmode treatment?

      There may be some redness and swelling immediately after the procedure, but these side effects are generally mild and temporary.

      Most individuals can resume their normal activities within a few days.

    5. How many sessions do I need and when will I see results from Morpheus Inmode?

      Initial results can be noticeable within a few days, but optimal results typically develop over the following weeks as the skin's collagen continues to regenerate. Full results may take several months to become apparent.The number of sessions needed varies based on individual goals and the condition of the skin. Typically, a series of 3-4 sessions spaced several weeks apart is recommended for optimal results.

    6. Who is and isn’t suitable for Morpheus Inmode treatment?

      Morpheus Inmode is safe for all skin types. The customizable nature of the treatment allows for adjustments to address specific concerns and skin conditions.

      Pregnant women, individuals with certain medical conditions, or those with active skin infections may not be suitable candidates for Morpheus Inmode. Consultation with a qualified practitioner is required to determine eligibility.

    1. What is Emsculpt?

      Emsculpt is a non-invasive, pain free, body contouring and muscle-building treatment that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology. It is designed to help individuals achieve a more toned and sculpted appearance by simultaneously building muscle and reducing fat in targeted areas of the body.

      Emsculpt works by delivering high-intensity electromagnetic energy to the targeted muscle groups. This energy induces supra-maximal muscle contractions, which are much more intense and effective than what can be achieved through voluntary muscle contractions during regular exercise. These powerful contractions stimulate muscle growth and development. Additionally, the intense muscle contractions generated by Em Sculpt also lead to a breakdown of fat cells in the treated area.

    2. How Long Does an Em Sculpt Treatment Session Take?

      An Em Sculpt treatment session typically takes only 30 minutes.

    3. Is there any pre-care or post-care?

      While there is no specific pre or post-care regimen required for this treatment, we do advise that maintaining a balanced lifestyle can enhance your results. Incorporating regular exercise and a healthy diet can contribute to optimizing the benefits of the treatment.

    4. How many sessions do I need and when will I see results?

      It’s recommended to come in twice a week or every 4 to 5 days in between sessions.

      Generally, patients may need 4 to 5 treatment sessions to achieve their personal goals. You can expect to see Emsculpt results in 3 to 4 weeks after completing the treatment.

    5. What areas EM Sculpt treats?

      • Abdomen: Emsculpt can help tone and define the abdominal muscles, leading to a more sculpted and toned midsection

      • Buttocks: Emsculpt is known for its effectiveness in shaping and lifting the buttocks, creating a firmer and more contoured appearance.

      • Thighs: This treatment can be used on the thighs to strengthen and tone the quadriceps and hamstring muscles, potentially reducing thigh fat.

      • Arms: Emsculpt can target the muscles in the arms, particularly the biceps and triceps, to enhance muscle definition and reduce arm fat.

    1. What is Plasma Fibroblast?

      Plasma Fibroblast is a non-surgical skin-tightening treatment that rejuvenates the skin without the need for surgery, incisions, or anesthesia.

      Plasma Fibroblast works by utilizing a device that generates plasma, which is an ionized gas. The practitioner uses a specialized device known as a "Plasma Pen" that emits a small, controlled plasma arc. This arc creates superficial micro-injuries in the skin, known as microtrauma. The microtrauma caused by the plasma arc triggers the body's natural healing response. It stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential proteins for skin elasticity and firmness.

    2. How Long Does a Plasma Fibroblast Treatment Session Take?

      The treatment takes 2 hours because we allow the applied numbing cream to work for an hour and then the treatment starts.

    3. Who is and isn’t an ideal candidate for plasma fibroblast?

      Ideal: Plasma Fibroblast is ideal for individuals looking to address mild to moderate skin laxity, fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring, and similar skin concerns.

      Not ideal: Pregnant or breastfeeding women, individuals with skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, or severe acne, and those with open wounds or infections are not suitable candidates for Plasma Fibroblast.

    4. What are expected symptoms or reactions during the healing process after Plasma Fibroblast?

      After the procedure, it is common to experience a brief period of redness and mild swelling, which are natural skin reactions. These typically fade within three days, with any lingering redness lasting up to two weeks.

      Delicate carbon crusts may appear on the skin's surface, which is a normal part of the healing process. These should not be touched and will naturally exfoliate in about a week, revealing fresh, rejuvenated skin beneath.

    5. Is there any pre-care or post-care?

      Yes, it is advised to keep the skin well-hydrated with a gentle moisturizer leading up to the treatment. Avoid using harsh exfoliants or acids, and ensure the treatment area is clean and washed before your appointment.

      After the procedure, it's important to refrain from touching, picking, or scratching the treated area to prevent infection and scarring. Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for at least two weeks, and if going outside, use sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and protect the treated area with a hat or clothing. Use a mild, fragrance-free cleanser to cleanse the treated area and avoid harsh products or scrubbing. Avoid applying makeup to the treated area for at least 48 hours, and steer clear of hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, and hot tubs to prevent excessive swelling or complications. Staying well-hydrated by drinking water can aid in the healing process.

    6. How many sessions do I need and when will I see results?

      It’s recommended to come in twice a week or every 4 to 5 days in between sessions.

    1. What are Fat Dissolvers?

      The Fat Dissolver treatment, known as Lipo Lab, is a non-surgical procedure that reduces the storage of fat, increases metabolism, and provides increased energy. It is designed to target and destroy fat cells in areas such as the double chin, abdomen, legs, arms, and back.

    2. How do Fat Dissolvers work?

      Lipo Lab is a solution that effectively dissolves fat in targeted areas by melting subcutaneous fat. The solution is intended for fat loss in specific problem areas, and there is no downtime after the treatment. Additionally, the treatment is typically completed in one session, eliminating the need for multiple visits.

      During each session of a Fat Dissolver treatment, a topical numbing cream is applied to the targeted area, followed by multiple fat-dissolving ampoules (Lipo Lab) in problematic areas. The procedure typically takes about 15 minutes.

    3. How are Fat Dissolvers applied and is it painful?

      This is a non-needle method. The application is used with small tubes filled with the PPC solution (Lipo Lab) and your professional/beautician uses a handheld device that utilizes pressure to insert in the area.

      This treatment cannot be performed while pregnant or breastfeeding, and the area/s to be treated must be free from injury.

    1. What is vaginal rejuvenation?

      HIFU Vaginal Tightening or ‘HIFU Vaginal Rejuvenation’ (HVR) is performed to tighten and rejuvenate the vaginal canal with a non-surgical procedure. This application is provided by thermal and non-ablative effects of special ultrasound waves. It does not involve any incision, anesthesia, or pain during the procedure.

      It’s been used not only for the rejuvenation of the vagina, but also for

      • stress urinary incontinence treatment

      • sexual enhancement

        menopausal vulvovaginal atrophy symptoms

      • and other therapy

    2. How does vaginal rejuvenation work?

      The Vaginal Tightening HIFU system uses a non-invasive ultrasonic fusion technique to target the mucosal lamia and muscle layer. Using ultrasonic waves as the energy source and taking advantage of their penetration and locality, a higher-intensity ultrasonic region, called the focus region, is formed. In a fraction of a second, the temperature of the region can reach slightly over 65 degrees calicoes, so the collagen is reorganized and the normal tissue outside the focal region is undamaged.

      Ultimately, the desired effect of vagina tightening is achieved.

    3. What are the recommended Pre-care and Post-Care instructions?

      Pre care:

      Please shower on the day of your treatment using non-perfumed products.

      Post Treatment:

      Please avoid hot baths, steam rooms, and saunas for 72 hours post-treatment.

      Please avoid any form of sexual activity of any kind for a minimum of 72 hours post-treatment. Avoid any perfumed or alcohol-based products for 72 hours.

    4. Will this affect my IUD?

      No, it doesn’t affect the iud because we don’t pass the cervix.

      The probe only gets inserted in the vaginal wall, but it won’t pass the cervix where the Iud is placed.

    5. How many sessions do I need and when will I see results?

      There is a 2 to 3 week wait time in between sessions.

      Results can vary from person to person, but some individuals may begin to notice improvements after the first treatment session. However, the full benefits of HIFU Vaginal Tightening typically become more apparent over several weeks as collagen production increases.

      The longevity of results can also vary, but many people experience benefits that last anywhere from 1 to 2 years or more. Maintenance treatments may be recommended to sustain the effects over time. Again, the duration of results depends on individual factors and lifestyle choices.

    6. Who is and isn’t suitable for the treatment?

      HIFU Vaginal Tightening or Rejuvenation is typically suitable for adult women who are experiencing issues like vaginal laxity, stress urinary incontinence, sexual dysfunction, or menopausal vulvovaginal atrophy symptoms.

      This treatment cannot be performed while pregnant or breastfeeding, and the area/s to be treated must be free from injury.

    1. What is Microneedling?

    1. What is Brow Lamination and how does it work?

      Brow lamination is a cosmetic procedure that involves "perming" your eyebrow hairs to achieve a fuller and more even look. It can also help keep your brows in place, even after washing off cosmetics. This treatment is beneficial for individuals with various brow concerns, such as thinning hair due to aging, gaps from over-plucking or waxing, unruly hairs that grow in different directions, or the desire for a more defined shape. Brow lamination provides the appearance of thicker and fuller brows by lifting the hairs vertically, creating the illusion of new growth. Importantly, it is a non-invasive process.

    2. What are the Pre-Care and Post-Care instructions?

      Before your treatment, arrive with clean brows and remove any makeup, oils, or creams from your brow area.

      After the treatment, keep your brows dry and avoid applying makeup or skincare products to your brows for at least 24 hours. Avoid exposure to steamy environments like saunas, steam rooms, and hot showers for the first 24 hours after treatment. Refrain from any other brow treatments (e.g., tweezing, waxing, or threading) for at least a week after the lamination. Avoid using oil-based products on or around your brow area, as they can weaken the lamination effect.

    3. Who is and isn’t suitable for this treatment?

      Brow lamination is not suitable for people with sensitive skin or allergies, those with recent permanent makeup, or individuals with underlying eyebrow conditions.

    4. What are the Pre-Care and Post-Care Instructions?

      It's recommended to stay well-hydrated to minimize sensitivity during and after the treatment. In the days leading up to the treatment, it's advisable to avoid consuming staining substances like coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco. If you have sensitive teeth, it's important to discuss this with your dentist to determine if the treatment is suitable for you.

      After teeth whitening, it's important to avoid foods and drinks that can stain teeth for the first 48 hours.

      Additionally, if you smoke, try to abstain from smoking during this period, as tobacco can stain teeth. Acidic foods and beverages can temporarily soften enamel after treatment, making it more susceptible to staining, so it's best to limit consumption for a couple of days.
