The goal now isn't so much to cause visible peeling as to infuse the skin with ingredients that diminish lines, build collagen, and improve tone. Peels can make your skin - and skin-care products - work better. In minutes, acids lift away dead cells and trigger a lovely chain reaction. As that topmost layer is shed, signals are sent to the living cells below to multiply and move up, to increase collagen production, to make more hyaluronic acid - to act younger. Your skin-care products perform better after a

peel because there are no dead cells impeding their penetration. There are chemical peels that are safe to use on every skin colour without risk of hyperpigmentation (usually a worry with darker complexions). The right peel can end acne and soften the scars that come with it. Nothing controls melasma better. There isn't a permanent cure for the recurring, sun-triggered dark patches brought on by hormonal surges (caused by pregnancy and the Pill), but chemical peels (paired with high-SPF sunscreen, and strict sun avoidance) offer the best fighting chance.

ALL THOSE HORRID

SKIN IMPERFECTIONS A spotless, lineless, flawless complexion is lying just beneath the surface of your skin - and a classic peel treatment is the fastest way there, as lots of clients are finding out. Peels are back as favourite spa treatments. By casting off dull surface cells, they improve fine lines, acne, discolouration, and more. And they do it for all skin types and colours - for a fraction of the cost of flashier options. The minute a laser is switched on things get expensive.

Doctor Babor AHA 10+10 Peeling Gel – R2 260. Our Skin-renewing fruit acid peeling contains a precisely co-ordinated combination of 10% fruit acids and 10% highly effective antioxidants including vitamin C and Thiotaine. Immediately after the first application, skin has a fresher and more radiant appearance and your complexion looks more youthful. Visibly refines pores and smooths fine lines. Babor Cleansing CP Deep Pore Cleansing Mask With Peeling Effect - R350 per tube. This has a slight peeling effect and gives a superficial peel to the skin for those who just want a great cleanse and smooth skin afterwards. And because of all the recent media coverage about the use of plastic beads as the abrasives in some cosmetic product, I queried the product with Babor HQ in Germany and was told, “BABOR has modified the previous bulk and exchanged Polyethylene against a natural abrasive in the new formula. This ingredient is of plant origin.“

We recently welcomed Emma and Matt who travelled from Australia to her folk’s home in Lonehill for their wedding. Emma and her bridesmaids enjoyed facials and tanning before the big day. Here’s what she had to say after the Big Event!

Thank you for your contribution to

and were glowing with our lovely tans.

The facial I had there was the best

facial I have ever had and I sent two

of my friends back there to give it

a go, I will definitely be back when

Our Chiro can help with the pains of

ageing and over-use Back Sprains and Strains are experienced by approx three out of four adults. Sprains are caused when ligaments—the tough bands of tissue that hold bones together—become overstretched or torn. Strains involve a muscle and/or a tendon. Either one can occur when you lift too much weight, play a strenuous sport, or even bend or twist improperly during regular activities. Coccydynia - pain that develops in the spine’s tailbone. Some people who fall down or who ride a bike for a long time may develop coccydynia, which can get worse when sitting. Sometimes the pain begins without any known cause. Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is usually associated with ageing. As you become older, your intervertebral discs— the pillow-like cushions between your vertebrae—can degenerate or break down due to years of strain, overuse, or misuse. The discs may lose flexibility, elasticity, and shock absorption. They also become thinner as they dehydrate. Spondylosis may affect the spine’s facet joints or other bones. This type of arthritis is often associated with ageing. Whiplash is a hyperflexion /hyperextension injury commonly occurring when a motor vehicle is rear-ended. The neck and head are “whipped” suddenly and quickly forward (hyperflexion) & backward (hyperextension), which may lead to severe neck sprain and/or strain.

THE SKINNY offers Ultrasound Liposuction, skin tightening and cellulite-reduction treatments that are all NON-surgical fat removal procedures. Clients see immediate results and will continue to see results in the reduction of fat for up to a week following treatment. The treatment uses ultrasound technology which allows for non-surgical attack of inflexible fat deposits that no matter how much you diet and exercise, never seem to disappear. Unlike a traditional tummy tuck or liposuction, there are NO knives, NO anaesthesia and NO surgery.

The most common problem areas are the buttocks, abdomen, love handles, saddle bags (thighs), upper arms, inner knees. THE SKINNY body-contouring system offers a way to get your body back that requires NO hospital stay, NO recovery time, NO time off work, leaves NO scars and needs NO anaesthesia. The treatment also assists in Cellulite reduction and skin tightening. While this is a non-surgical way to sculpt and contour your body, this is not a replacement to a healthy eating and exercise regime. THE SKINNY will help you get back your confidence and improve your body. Procedure is absolutely painless and safe and works for all skin colours and types. Ultrasound liposuction is the perfect treatment for people who want to contour their body and regain their confidence.
