LASER CO2

  • Wrinkles and fine lines
  • Periorbital wrinkles
  • Signs of cutaneous photoaging
  • Acne scars and surgical scars
  • Tightening of the skin: wrinkles of the décolleté, slackening and loss of the oval of the face.
  • Minor surgery: keratoses, moles, warts, etc.

The CO2 laser Ultrafine™ is the latest generation of fractional CO2 laser, combining high technology and performance (3 emission modes, different operating modes – continuous, superpulsed, ultrapulsed).

Fractional CO2: a brand new method used for facial resurfacing without the drawbacks of the old CO2-based processes. It smoothes the skin’s surface (wrinkles) and gives a real glow. It will also be used for the removal of small skin tumors.

LASER Elite +

ALEXANDRITE LASER + ND-YAG combination

  • Wrinkles and fine lines
  • Brown tasks
  • Signs of photoaging
  • Permanent hair removal
  • Veins and varicosities

The Elite+™ laser is the most versatile system on the market with its double wavelength for fast results on all skin types. The Elite+ can be used to treat long-lasting hair removal of all phototypes and tanned skin, facial and lower limb spider veins, epidermal pigmentary lesions and all signs of photoaging.

CRYO AIR COOLING SYSTEM FOR SOFT TREATMENT 

CRISTAL PRO : (cryolipolyse Deleo)

Medical Cryolipolysis: Fighting fat deposits

It is a non-invasive technique of adipocyte lysis. The principle of cryolipolysis is to intensely cool a localized fat mass using Peltier modules that go down to -9°C. High pressure is also applied to the adipocytes by suction to induce ischemia in order to modify their configuration. This change in cell state from normal body temperature (37°C) to very low or even negative temperatures sends a chemical message of apoptosis to the adipocytes. From 6 weeks, results are visible but the body will continue to eliminate the crystallized adipocytes until 3 months after the session.

PLATEFORME XEO (CUTERA)

Based on a laser platform equipped with Cutera’s exclusive Nd:YAG technology, laser and xeo light-based solutions repair and rebalance skin tone and health.

In addition to Nd:YAG technology, which is used for vascular lesions and Cutera’s flagship Laser Genesis procedure, xeo is equipped with LimeLight and AcuTip intense pulsed light devices for photoaging, an Er:YSGG laser for skin resurfacing and Titan, Cutera’s deep-warming thermal solution. 

 

PHOTOMODULATION : LED

LEDs, or Light Emitting Diode, are electronic components capable of emitting light when an electric current flows through them. They allow the current to flow in one direction only, producing monochromatic radiation. In dermatology: the efficiency of an LED will depend on its wavelength (5 to 10 nm), its irradiance (to reach the redox photo-activation threshold), its mode (pulsed or continuous) and its exposure time. The different wavelengths:

  • Blue: 1mm (400 to 470 nm) for acne or other infections
  • Green: 0.5 to 2 mm (470 to 550nm) for photodynamic photorejuvenation
  • Red: 1 to 6 mm (600 to 700nm) for the treatment of pigmentary lesions, actinic keratoses, hair regrowth, stretch marks.

I Beauty Gun

This medical device is a precious mesotherapy tool that allows to prick/inject at a very high frequency, of the order of 425 micro-injections / minute. The contribution of this high rate called “high frequency” has increased the efficiency of the traditional mesolift by integrating this injection technique in a systematic way.

It allows the doctor to make injections in a reproducible manner since he can choose the level of depth at which to place the product. It is a very safe tool since everything in contact with the patient is single-use.

Thanks to the BEAUTY GUN, we can practice :

  • Mesotherapy of the face, which consists of injecting a nutritive and revitalizing mixture into the dermis to “boost” the skin.
  • Mesotherapy of the scalp with great efficiency and very little discomfort for the patient.

 

CENTRIFUGAL MACHINE PRP 2ND GENERATION

A true revolution in medicine, 2nd generation PRP uses natural blood factors to generate cellular rejuvenation.

A small amount of the patient’s own blood is taken from the patient and selected to activate undifferentiated tissue cells. The growth factors contained in the platelets stimulate collagen synthesis and the production of new blood vessels.

Gentle centrifugation of the collected blood isolates a leuco-platelet concentrate and plasma. These elements are injected into the tissues to be stimulated.

Since it is the patient’s own blood, it is a natural treatment without risk of rejection.

  • Face, neck, neckline, hands: the skin is rehydrated, softened and “wrinkled”. The tonus increased by the production of collagen provides a “lifting effect”.
  • Dark circles: the 2nd generation PRP has a filling effect on the “valley of tears”, these disgraceful hollow rings
  • Acne scars: the filling effect is obtained by combining the PRP2e generation with the fractional CO2 laser or DERMAPEN (see these sections).
  • Scalp: hair becomes more supple and silky, and 2nd generation PRP stimulates regrowth
  • Stretch marks: they regress under the effect of the PRP2e generation-DERMAPEN association.
  • Sexuality: Stimulation of the growth of blood vessels and nerve cells improves erection in men and improves the appearance of the labia majora and sexual function in women. The 2nd generation PRP also potentiates the results of intimate surgery.

luxopuncture

Effectiveness on :

  • weight loss: correction of eating behaviour,
  • Smoking cessation: physical dependence and mental lack,
  • menopause well-being: to reduce the discomfort of menopause,
  • relaxation: anti-stress.

Luxopuncture is a reflex technique, which stimulates your energies, by infrared radiation, on certain acupuncture points. This helps to restore the functional balance of an organ, such as the hormonal system, the digestive system, the lymphatic system…

This stimulation is gentle, painless and risk-free.

The objective of luxopuncture is to rebalance the organism in order to :

  • Reduce compulsive behaviors towards food
  • Induce a relaxing effect
  • Get back to sleep
  • Avoid withdrawal situations

The sessions last about 1/2 hour, it is necessary to start with a consultation-balance sheet in order to establish a care program adapted to each person and thus determine the number of sessions necessary.

 

DERMAPEN

How to regain the suppleness and vitality of the skin? A new mesotherapy technique has appeared: Micro-Needling.

The effectiveness of micro-needling results from the biophysical effect created by the pen (the micro-perforations induce a stimulation of the fibroblasts) and the revitalizing effect of the active ingredients which are then applied to the skin.

The impacts emitted by the pen have the effect of breaking down old collagen and triggering the production of new organized collagen. The skin thickens thanks to what we could call an autologous filler. Imperfections, including scars and wrinkles are reduced.

Silhouet Tone Evolution 7

The principle of definitive electric hair removal is the destruction of hairs in the growth phase, regardless of their pigmentation. It is based on the insertion of a filament into the hair follicle. The current will then cause the destruction of the follicle. All that remains to be done is to remove the hair with tweezers. This technique is done hair by hair.

As with the laser, the treatment will have to be repeated several times in order to destroy the hair in the anagen phase. This hair removal technique is definitive.

The objective of luxopuncture is to rebalance the organism in order to :

  • Reduce compulsive behaviors towards food
  • Induce a relaxing effect
  • Get back to sleep
  • Avoid withdrawal situations

The sessions last about 1/2 hour, it is necessary to start with a consultation-balance sheet in order to establish a care program adapted to each person and thus determine the number of sessions necessary.
