Being Malaysia’s First Angkasawan, there is no one better to represent Cervical Cancer Awareness Association (CARES) than Dato’ Dr Sheikh Muzaphar himself. His perspective towards cancer and the issues of the community and the world had changed after he had done cancer research through the Angkasawan Programme.

VISIA

VISIA Complexion Analysis uses multi-spectral imaging to reveal damage on and beneath the surface of our skin that is not detectable by visual examination alone.

VISIA imaging allows us to evaluate your skins’ health and appearance based on six criteria that affect your complexion: wrinkles, spots, pores, evenness (skin tone color variation), porphyrins (evidence of bacteria in your pores), and UV spots caused by overexposure to the sun.

VISIA also uses comparative data with other women of the same age and ethnicity to provide additional information about your complexion results.

SilkPeel™ microdermabrasion with dermalinfusion

SilkPeel™ microdermabrasion with dermalinfusion is the most dynamic skin treatment available today. It is the only procedure that provides both non-invasive exfoliation and delivery of skin-specific topical solutions, leaving patients with fresher-feeling and better-looking skin. It is safe and painless, allowing patients to achieve optimum results on an accelerated basis without the complications and discomfort usually associated with invasive procedures. It allows an immediate return to normal activities. In addition, SilkPeel™ is unique because it does not use crystals or other abrasive particles that can irritate the skin.

How It Works?

Your skin care professional will choose one or more of our specialized treatment serums, formulated to address a variety of skin conditions. The SilkPeel™ infuses these products deep into the skin where they are most effective. The solution doesn’t just sit on top of your skin like a lotion or cream would, instead the patented SilkPeel™ handpiece deeply delivers the vitamins, antioxidants and other therapeutic ingredients that your skin needs most.

The proprietary formulations absorb down to where they will be most effective in brightening, clarifying, and hydrating your skin. It optimizes the benefits of exfoliation and the effects of the serums without the often uncomfortable and painful effects that people experience with most peels.

And because SilkPeel™ technology combines several different benefits in a single procedure, you can achieve more youthful skin in less time and see noticeable improvements with each and every session.

Indications:

The infusion of patient specific topical solutions combined with effective abrasion allows SilkPeel™ operators to address many different conditions. SilkPeel™ procedures can assist in the improvement of the skin in many ways, including:

SilkPeel™ is also fantastic as a pre or post-operative procedure to improve results of laser or other cosmetic and medical procedures.

How Long It Takes

Each treatment only takes around 30 minutes, and doesn’t require any downtime. It’s perfect as a lunch time facial. It is an easy way to relax without taking up hours of your busy day! SilkPeel™ is also a great way to hydrate tired feet, or rejuvenate your hands.

What Happens After The Treatment

SilkPeel™ is perfect if your skin needs a good pick-me-up! Within about 30 minutes, the wet exfoliation leaves your skin silky smooth, hydrated, bright, and full of the youthful, healthy glow that we all desire.

Medlite C6 Laser

It is amazing how this single wavelength laser [1064nm] is able to do many procedure. This is because different power used for each treatment, therefore the penetration of the laser beam is different. It delivers short, rapid, high intensity pulses of light with maximum capability for destruction of melanin targets. The combination of the short wavelength and rapid light pulses results in maximum removal of pigmented areas while preserving surrounding skin.

These are the indications for Medlite C6

Aftercare

Depending on the type of treatment performed there may be a sunburn like feeling, redness, bruising and scabbing. The skin heals quickly within 3-7 days with the application of a greasy ointment such as petroleum jelly. A scar with any C6 treatment is extremely rare.

What are the possible side effects from Medlite C6 laser treatment?

Possible side effects include hypopigmentation (lightening of the skin in the treated area) and hyperpigmentation (darker skin in the treated area) and redness. Although scarring has been reported, this is unusual. Occasionally, the laser is not effective.

DermaRoller

DermaRoller or MicroNeedling is an excellent technique to improve a wide variety of skin conditions, such as; skin texture, large pores, sun damage, wrinkles, and scarring (acne, chick pox, surgical) and also works to fight alopecia with different topical serum by increasing the absorption of the solution to be delivered into the hair root. It effectively increases new collagen production without damaging the skin. This procedure works from within to create your own collagen naturally.

Indications

1. Acne scars
2. Visible pores
3. Fine lines and wrinkles
4. Alopecia / Hair loss

How does it work?

Local anaesthetic cream will be applied before the microneedle is roll on to the skin. Nothing is felt during the procedure is done. Very fine needles pierce the epidermis (top layer of the skin), stimulating collagen formation. Resulting a “micro-channel effect” which also helps to infuse different types of serum i.e. for alopecia or acne scar and other topical products to increase their effectiveness.

DermaRF Radiofrequency

DermaRF Radiofrequency featuring Superpulse technology is now available for non-surgical face lifting, reduction of crow’s feet and reduction of open pores. Besides that, its also can be used for body lifting, upper arm firming and fat melting.

How It Works

Radiofrequency (RF) technology is highly sought after for its skin firming properties. The treatment can stimulate skin remodeling by the immediate contraction of existing collagen up to 30% and the resultant production of new collagen after few treatments.

The device is also extremely versatile, offering the following benefits:
