Skin Like The Stars – Right This Way!
If you’re still saving your pennies for Thermage, here’s a more economical alternative – you can thank me later.
Start your anti aging regime sooner rather than later.
You know what it’s like once you hit your mid-30s, your age starts to creep up on your skin. You’ll start to notice more crinkles around your eyes when you smile, your laugh lines become more obvious and your jaw starts to look a little slack. You think, goddamn it, I’ve got to arrest this aging situation pronto, and swear to cut down on Starbucks and eating out so that you can start saving for a pampering (and expensive) Thermage session. Well, I’ve got good news for you – you can book an appointment for a similar treatment for a fraction of Thermage’s cost right now.
Yes, you read right.
The Wellness Clinic’s new Enlighten Gold treatment features the revolutionary Cutera enlightenTM laser system, which has the ability to go as deep as Thermage and achieve the same results for skin showing early signs of aging, says Dr Ram Nath. It is said to be the world’s first and only laser platform featuring dual wavelength (532nm/1064nm) and both picosecond and nanosecond pulse durations, making it the most advanced picosecond platform currently available.
Here’s why Picosecond stands out compared to other lasers: Picosecond (one trillionth of a second) laser pulses, which are one thousand times shorter than the nanosecond pulses used by conventional lasers, deliver energy from the laser beam into the skin in a much shorter time than conventional lasers. This leads to faster, safer and less painful treatment for patients. Surrounding tissue is also less likely to be compromised during treatment.
It is suitable for patients in their 30s and 40s with mild skin aging issues such as skin laxity, fine lines and wrinkles, Enlighten Gold stimulates collagen production and boosts skin elasticity at a greater depth, lifting and tightening the skin, while minimising injury to the skin.
In addition to skin aging, The Enlighten Gold treatment can also be used for skin rejuvenation. It gently improves the appearance of dull or discoloured skin, unwanted freckles, age spots and sunspots, leaving the skin looking brighter and more radiant, with a more even tone. It also helps in pore reduction and the treatment of acne scars (some downtime is expected with more intensive treatments).
The best part? It costs from $650 per session.
Treatment process:
After washing my face, a numbing cream was applied for 20 minutes, after which Dr Ram started the laser treatment. The Enlighten Gold laser felt very comfortable and all I felt was a light prickling sensation even though several passes were made to my skin.
To further enhance my complexion, Dr Ram applied a light fruit acid peel to help get rid of any clogged pores and skin roughness. I was told to expect slight sloughing of dead skin to reveal smooth and luminous skin in the next three days – just in time for the weekend!
The Enlighten Gold treatment is suitable for all skin types and takes about half an hour. There is no downtime involved, with only some mild redness occurring temporarily after the treatment. A series of 2-3 treatments is usually recommended to achieve optimal results, with ongoing maintenance treatments thereafter.
