COMBINED FACIAL TREATMENTS (CFTS)

Dull skin can be a result of various factors. In general the causes of dull skin are a result of “upper” dermal and “lower” dermal issues as well as internal problems related to the liver. Therefore, a combined blend of highly effective treatments offers the most powerful solution that targets both inner and outer body causes at source for the very best results possible. Depending on the severity of the condition, a combination of the following may be recommended to you during your skin and lifestyle consultation with us.

4 STEP SKIN REJUVENATION PROGRAMME FOR DULL SKIN

2. Nano Needling – Pushes product deep into the lower dermis to improve overall hydration and increase cellular rejuvenation

3. Liver Cleanse – Remove hormonal issues like pigmentation and spots at source

4. Glycolic Skin Peel – A light peel which can    promote cellular rejuvenation and target dull skin.

ENHANCE THE PENETRATION OF SKIN PRODUCTS

When done by a qualified skin professional, Nano needling, Microdermabrasion, light skin peels, IPL and skin needling can achieve exceptional rejuvenation results for those who are not quite ready to undergo surgery or who wish to avoid more invasive skin treatments. 

PROGRESSIVE SKIN RESURFACING

Nano needling, microdermabrasion and Vitamin A Facial Infusions offer an opportunity to dramatically improve skin texture and increase brightness over a number of weeks. The vibrational process encourages new cell production, which means that, not only do you benefit from the removal of the damaged skin in the upper dermal layer, but your skin is encouraged to produce new cells and collagen.

MENS SKIN

Nano needling, Microdermabrasion, skin peels, and IPL Laser are the number one skin treatments recommended to improve the appearance and texture of male skin. Thats because most men are concerned about downtime. As these treatments offer minimal downtime, they are a popular choice for men seeking natural results. They specifically help reduce shaving rash and and blocked follicles. They are often followed by diathermy for the removal of unsightly broken red veins around the nose. Diamond microdermabrasion uses a mechanical device with a hand held wand which is surfaced by thousands of tiny diamond particles. These are used to gently abrade away dead skin and suck collagen up to the dermal layer resulting in younger looking skin over a number of weeks. The treatment is pleasant and pain free.

SMOOTHER YOUNGER LOOKING SKIN

Combined Facial Treatments: If skin is dull and lacks lustre, you could benefit from a course of treatment that combines microdermabrasion with Nano Needling, skin peels and IPL Laser. Week by week, you will see improvements in the skin tone and texture as both treatments challenge the skin in a slightly different ways, for maximum rejuvenation benefits. At Vitality Center Dublin, our CFT programmes can be combined with body and gut restoration therapies like colonics for optimal results from the inside out. 

HOME CARE/AFTERCARE

Hyaluronic acid and other skin serums are recommended.  The stratum corneum is the outermost layer of the epidermis, comprised of 15 to 20 cell layers, functioning to protect the underlying dermal layer. Nano needling, Microdermabrasion and Vitamin A Facial Infusions gradually remove these layers to reveal younger skin underneath. When the stratum corneum is moist (full of water), it is flexible, smooth, and translucent. Microscopically, the surface is smoother and less irregular after each CFT treatment. When moist with water and hyaluronic acid, stratum corneum cell plates swell and plump which means that wrinkles and fine lines are instantly plumped out.

INCREASED COLLAGEN PRODUCTION

At the dermal level, the major protein is collagen, a glycine and proline-rich helical protein making up approximately 90% of dermal collagen . The stratum corneum consists of approximately 40% protein and 40% water; the rest is mainly lipid. The skin is held together by many fibres. This connective tissue are composed of collagen fibers, elastic fibers, and an interfibrillar gel of glycosaminoglycans. However, as we age we lose this collagen and the skin becomes looser. Active peptides and collagen are applied to the skin after CFT treatments such as Nano needling, Microdermabrasion and IPL Laser Photo Facial and Glycolic Skin Peels at Dublin Vitality Center. But thats not all, due to the mild cellular trauma created by this wonderful treatment, the skin produces natural collagen. This results in younger looking skin which looks natural and hydrated.

AFTERCARE & SPF

After Nano needling, Microdermabrasion,  Glycolic Skin Peels and IPL Laser you must protect the skin with sun protection factor 30 for daily wear. An advanced broad spectrum SPF factor 30 is best. The most advanced SPFs are designed to protect skin even from the damage caused by environmental toxins and radiated glare from long term exposure to PCs and other devices , as well as uva and uvb light. This advanced SPF is now available exclusively at Dublin Vitality Center. It is suitable for men and women and can reduce rosacea (facial redness) and pigmentation, with regular applications. It is also an ideal primer.
