Collagen Induction, Fine Line Reduction & Skin Tightening


Our laser machine, Duetto MT EVO can emit either a single wavelength or dual wavelengths to provide non-invasive laser rejuvenation with no pain and no downtime


HOW DOES IT WORK:

Unlike many other popular laser machines, our Duetto MT EVO can emit single mode of long-pulsed 1064 nm or sequential mode of long-pulsed 755 nm & then long-pulsed 1064 nm to provide non-invasive photo rejuvenation.

755-nm wavelength can reduce or remove epidermal hyper-pigmentation.

Laser energy of 1064-nm wavelength can reach the dermal layer of our skin. 1064-nm light is highly absorbed by water, oxyhemoglobin and dark melanins locating in the dermis. Using the Genesis technique, this creates a gentle thermal induction to stimulate the skin's natural repair response, triggering collagen & elastin productions, leading to collagen remodeling and fine wrinkle reduction. By improving the dermis layer, it also reduces dermal hyper-pigment, and redness & rosacea caused by dilated capillaries.

  

WHICH PARTS OF BODY AREAS CAN BE TREATED:

Laser rejuvenation can be used to treat any areas of the body, and it is most frequently used on the face, neck, chest and hands

-- A certificate from your medical doctor is required before I can treat your moles or pigment-producing skin cells to prove that you have had those areas checked and they are not cancerous. 

-- Avoid any laser treatments when your skin is still inflamed or sensitive, such as from recently exfoliation, chemical peeling and etc. 

-- This long-pulsed laser cannot treat tattooed areas, permanent makeup.

-- Photosensitivity can be induced by your genetic inheritance and/or certain substances.

Increased photosensitivity to light therapies, including this procedure, can occur when taking certain substances. In the present & in the last 6 months, have you been using the following substances? (Click here to see non-exhaustive list)

The list are examples of photosensitising/photosensitive substances that can induce photosensitivity and can make your skin sensitive to light including laser light and sunlight.

These substances are some medications, herbals, supplements, vitamins and/or cosmetic products (either via ingestion, topical application, inhalation and/or injection) you are currently using and/or you have been using within the last 6 months. 

Exposure to light, these medication may induce hyper-, hypo-pigmentation, dermatitis, blister or burn.

Laser can be performed when clients stay off such medication for at least its 1/2 life or longer when it is out of their body system.

Clients are advised to consult their medical doctors before stop their medications. 

Clients are also advised to stay off such medication 7 days after each light-based therapy.


*** Please inform us of any changes of your health condition and medications when booking and before the treatment. ***


 

 

BEFORE COMING TO EACH APPOINTMENT:

- Since this treatment is painless, numbing cream is needless cause it makes capillaries disappear and consequently we cannot treat your erythema.

- Please have such skin area clean and free from moisturiser, make-up, deodorant, perfume and etc. before starting the treatment.

- Please do not wear any metals such as jewellery in the areas you wish to be treated.

- No sunburn, tanning or artificial tanning in the area you wish to be treated.

 

 

WHAT TO EXPECT:

- The client must wear the right/appropriate eye protection throughout treatment to protect their eyes from the particular laser type being used.

- When using a single mode of long-pulsed 1064 nm, the therapist will hold a laser handpiece around half an inch above your skin while continuously firing light beams across the treatment region in order to gradually raise your skin temperature to around 42 0C. Your skin will slowly feel warm like having warm shower/rain. You should NOT feel uncomfortable, but enjoyable having this procedure.

- Some erythema (redness) is expected and usually resolves within a few hours, without the noticeable downtime. There will be no swelling (oedema) after this treatment.

This is a treatment which you can have on your lunch break and go straight back to work!

- Depending on your skin condition, treatments can range from around 15 – 45 mins 

- The number of treatments required can range from 2 to 6 or more, minimum 2 4 weeks apart between each session.

- Laser rejuvenation can provide good results, but your outcome is even better when it is used in conjunction with other treatments (such as LED light therapy, skin hydration therapy & etc.) and the application of dermatologists-approved skincare regime.

 

 

AFTER YOUR TREATMENT:

- You can resume your routine immediately after the treatment.

- It is safe to apply sunscreen and makeup immediately after the treatment.

- Please wear sunblock daily.

Mineral or physical sunscreens (those containing zinc oxide or titanium dioxide as main ingredient) are better than those containing other chemicals or organic compounds. The reason is that mineral sunscreens reflect sunlight, blocking it from absorbing into our skin, whereas other sunscreens allow light to absorb into our skin.

 

- Avoid sun exposure at least 4-6 weeks pre- and post- procedure.
