Laser Hair Removal - the faster way to hair free days

Our Medical Grade Laser Hair Removal with the   Candela GentleYag Laser system can safely and effectively treat the hair without targeting the skin. It is the GOLD Standard for permanent or long term hair removal on skin of color. Why ? Because the GentleYAG laser technology is known for its ability to provide 80-90% permanent hair reduction . . . regardless of skin type. The system uses  a revolutionary long-pulse high energy laser which emits a gentle beam of light that harmlessly passes through the skin where the hair is absorbed by the target. While the laser energy is transformed into heat, the surrounding skin is left unaffected. Also, a Dynamic Cooling Device™     further protects the skin during treatment by  spraying cryogen onto the skin to cool the upper layers and provide clients with increased comfort.                                        ...

Wrinkle Eraser without needles

If you are afrid of needles and injections, try this Wrinkle MD - a product using electroporotion  to deliver the active ingredients into the dermal layer of skin. Especially good for the under eye areas, and forehead lines as well as droopy eyebrows where it is difficult to inject as well as bruise easily. The product comes with a "pod" which is attached to the pad that is placed onto the skin in the area where the treatment is desired. For eg the under eye area, the upper brow area and the forehead lines area. I tried I to myself and lo and behold, my undereye lines were less after a20min session! It was comfortable and easy to use. I wore it while doing my paperwork.  For those who want to maintain their BotoX injection to last longer, this is also a good option. Only need to be applied weekly for best results with a maintenance of 2to4 weekly. #wrinkle #undereye lines#fine lines 

Bringing MINT Thread Lifting from Seoul to Malaysia

Was in a Seoul Korea again in January 2015.  The weather was cold and days were short but we had a fun time exploring and a fruitful training session in conducting the very new, and very effective threadlift called the MINT lift. This technique uses thicker PDO threads with barbs or cox that can hold the skin up better and longer.  The training was conducted at the Euro Clinic,a classy and upmarket type of plastic surgical centre in the heart of Gangnam area. The owner and founder , DrChoi  is a well known plastic surgeon who currently is the biggest conducter of MINT Lift since it was first introduced just 6months ago. I had a full hands on under his guidance. MiNT lift is a threadlift that uses thicker cox thread placed under the skin from the temple area right down to the lower facial skin to "lift" the skin against the downward pull of gravity. The lift stays as these threads are anchored in the temple area using a special Mint Needle. The final...

Dermaveill Liquid Lift Filler - the new POly Lactic Acid filler

Went to San Diego USA in June to have theory and practical training for a new Poly-L-Lactic ( PLLA) filler called Dermaveill. Dermaveill is a US product produced by a new company owned by the CEO of Sculptra , another PLA filler. The studies for lipo atrophy and liquid lifting was conducted in a renowned, private medical centre in Tijuana, Mexico by DrJorge Tagle, their famous plastic & Cosmetic Surgeon. The trip was made fun by TJ, our organiser from Sunward. On the first day we had a session on the product, it's development, it's correct usage, it's potential complications and side effects and it advantages. Dermaveill is better then Sulptra as it's molecules elliptical instead of spherical, thus making it easier to inject with less needle blockage. It also has no risk of forming nodules in the long term allowing for more superficial injection techniques. The next day we went to Tijuana to have injection demonstration and guidance by DrTagle who has inje...

Tighten skin of neck, décolletage, upper arms, knees and inner thighs

Ulthera Inc recently launched their new guidelines for the tightening of  skin on other parts of the body like décolleté , arms, knees and thighs, thus offering patients a non'- surgical solution for body skin laxity. Ultherapy received FDA approval in 2009 as the latest device that uses ultrasound to non-invasively lift and tighten tissue. Unlike traditional laser and radio frequency devices that heat tissue through the skin's surface,Ultherapy delivers micro-focused ultrasound energy below the skin surface. This targets the foundational layers of the skin, precisely heating tissue to the optimal temperature forneocollagenesis. (~60C), without affecting intervening tissue. Ultherapy is also unique because it can be used to non- invasively target sebaceous and sweat glands enabling me to treat hyperhidrosis or sweaty armpits. Because Ultherapy allows visualization of the targeted tissue, the energy is delivered precisely to that location. By adjusting treatment depth I can deli...
