Advanced Skin Treatments

Whether it be an upcoming event, a specific skin concern, or just general prevention against ageing; a skin consultation is our chance to thoroughly understand what has brought you to Face Fit.

Your consultation is a conversation between you and your Dermal Therapist over a cup of herbal tea, on all things YOU. Using skin analysis and tools such as imaging with our Observ, we can take a look above and below the skin surface to show you how your skin is functioning.

To arrive best prepared for your consultation, arrive with clean make-up free skin and either bring in or bring a photo of any products you are currently using. Be sure to also note the name of any medications or supplements you are taking (as some medications can affect the way your body responds to different treatments).

You can expect to leave your consultation with a deep understanding of the internal and external factors influencing your skin. We will provide you with a tailored treatment and product plan, (80% of your results come from your at home routine!) to achieve your skin goals.

With the help of our experienced Dermal Therapists and your on-going commitment, you will know you are on the right path to healthier skin and a more confident you.

A Skin Consultation is required before any Skin Needling treatment to ensure patients are suitable and well prepped for the treatment.

Skin Needling is recommended for patients wanting to target: scarring, fine lines and wrinkles, skin texture, tightness, skin tone and pigmentation.

At the time of your Skin Consultation your Dermal Therapist will assess the current condition of your skin and your at home skin care routine and give you recommendations based on this. All patients will need to prep prior to Skin Needling to ensure the best possible results.

Downtime is a strong word, however, we would definitely say there is ‘social downtime’ following your Skin Needling procedure. Skin can appear ‘flushed’, similar to moderate sunburn directly following treatment and for up to 24-48 hours following depending on the individual. You may have mild tingling and skin tightness during this time and will be required to follow a strict aftercare routine (with products provided by us as part of your treatment); avoiding make-up, as well as anything that generates extra heat in the body (eg. exercise). During this time it is vital you follow the provided aftercare instructions to avoid any undesirable results. Between day 1-7 you may also feel dry and experience some flaking, it is important not to pick at this or exfoliate until the time in which your Dermal Therapist has indicated.

Compared to some of our other treatments, Skin Needling can be slightly more uncomfortable depending on what we are treating and how deep we are needling. However, everyone has different pain tolerances and many patients find it was more comfortable than they were expecting!

We generally recommend having Skin Needling every 4-6 weeks if you are on a course.

This can vary from person to person depending on what we are targeting. We recommend starting with a course of 4 treatments and re-assessing after that. Results from needling continue to be seen for 6-12 months as collagen is naturally produced by the body. We may also advise to do needling in combination with other treatments to get the best results.

With any skin treatment there is always a possibility that you may slightly break-out afterwards. Skin Needling stimulates our skin and any congestion that was underlying may come to the surface.

We prefer not to numb for Skin Needling treatments to ensure we get the best result. However some clients ask to be numbed so we can offer topical anaesthetic for our Skin Needling treatments.

Skin needling is safe during pregnancy and for breastfeeding mums, as long as we aren’t using any topical anaesthetic. However, our wound healing ability can be compromised during these times as our body focuses on the important task of growing and nourishing a small human! For this reason a Skin Consultation is a must to chat through desired treatment outcomes and best treatment options for you.

Plasma needling may be recommended to target certain skin concerns. Plasma is naturally occurring in the blood and contains unique growth factors that can aid in the restore and repair functions of the skin.

A Skin Consultation is required before any Clear and Brilliant treatment to ensure patients are suitable and well prepped for the treatment.

Clear and Brilliant is recommended for patients wanting to target: complexion and skin tone, pigmentation, appearance of pores, ageing and rejuvenation.

At the time of your Skin Consultation your Dermal Therapist will assess the current condition of your skin and your at home skin care routine and give you recommendations based on this. For best results, patients will need to prep prior to their Clear and Brilliant treatment.

Downtime is a strong word, however, we would definitely say there is ‘social downtime’ following your Clear and Brilliant procedure. Skin can appear ‘flushed’ and feel warm, similar to moderate sunburn directly following treatment and for up to 24-48 hours, depending on the individual. You may have skin tightness during this time and will be required to follow a strict aftercare routine avoiding make-up, as well as anything that generates extra heat in the body (eg. exercise). It is vital you follow the provided aftercare instructions to avoid any undesirable results. Between day 1-7 you may also feel dry, rough and experience some flaking, it is important not to pick at this or exfoliate until the time in which your Dermal Therapist has indicated.

Compared to some of our other treatments, Clear and Brilliant can be slightly more uncomfortable depending on what we are treating and which handpiece we are using. However, everyone has different pain tolerances and many patients find it was more comfortable than they were expecting!

Yes, we do offer topical anaesthetic for our Clear and Brilliant treatments.

We generally recommend having Clear and Brilliant every 4 weeks if you are on a course.

This can vary from person to person depending on what we are targeting. We recommend starting with a course of 3-6 treatments to target specific concerns, however Clear and Brilliant can also be used in combination with other treatments to achieve desired results. Results from Clear and Brilliant can continue to be seen for 6-12 months as collagen is naturally produced by the body.

With any skin treatment there is always a possibility that you may slightly break-out afterwards. Clear and Brilliant stimulates our skin, any congestion that was underlying may come to the surface.

As most patients prefer to be numbed for their Clear and Brilliant treatment, pregnant or breastfeeding mums are not the ideal candidates for this treatment. Book a Skin Consultation with one of our Dermal Therapists to chat about this further and discuss alternate treatment options for you.

The HydraFacial treatment is designed for most skin types and is especially beneficial for those feeling congested, dull and lifeless, and those looking for a hydrated luminous glow.

Patients with active acne and those who have a lot of broken capillaries may be more suitable for other treatments, this will be discussed in your Skin Consultation.

HydraFacial requires no prep and can generally be done immediately following your initial Skin Consultation if your Dermal Therapist deems you suitable.

Sunburn, recent cosmetic or injectable treatments and other skin treatments (within a certain timeframe, generally 2-4 weeks depending on the treatment).

No, you will leave with a beautiful fresh glow! We do recommend avoiding sun exposure, hot showers, saunas, exercise, waxing and make-up for roughly 24 hours post treatment to ensure the best results.

Not at all! The handpiece glides over the skin using light suction, however it is painless. A slight tingling sensation may be experienced during the peel step.

With any skin treatment there is always a possibility that you may slightly break-out afterwards. As the HydraFacial gently exfoliates and stimulates our skin, any congestion that was underlying may come to the surface.

If you are wanting to have a HydraFacial before a specific event, we recommend booking 1 weeks prior if this is a concern for you.

Yes! We are able to slightly modify the treatment to be suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding mums, allowing them to still have a beneficial and completely safe treatment!

Dermablading is designed for most skin types. Patients with active acne and those who have skin barrier impairment may be more suitable for other treatments, this will be discussed in your Skin Consultation.

Dermablading requires no prep and can generally be done immediately following your initial Skin Consultation if your Dermal Therapist deems you suitable.

Sunburn, recent cosmetic or injectable treatments and other skin treatments (within a certain timeframe, generally 2-4 weeks depending on the treatment) may contraindicate you from having treatment on the day.

No, you will leave with a beautiful fresh glow! We do recommend minimising sun exposure, hot showers, saunas and exercise for the first 12 hours if you can, due to possible increased sensitivity.

No. Dermablading is a very comfortable procedure.

We recommend Dermablading every 4-6 weeks.

As Dermablading is a form of gentle exfoliation there is always a possibility that you may slightly break-out afterwards.

Yes! Dermablading is completely safe for pregnant and breastfeeding mums.

The only way to affect hair growth is to alter the root of the hair. Treatments that work on the surface of the skin cannot affect the root, which is located beneath the surface. The hair on our face is called vellus hair “peach fuzz” and our natural hair has a gently tapered end which makes the hair feel soft. Dermablading removes the hair at an angle rather than straight across and therefore the hair is tapered rather than blunt. As the hair grows back it will go back to feeling soft.

While we often associate light exposure with negative effects such as skin ageing and damage, light also has many positive influences on the body. It helps us produce vitamin D and provides energy and serotonin for example. It can also accelerate tissue healing.

The differences between the positive and negative effects of light are the amount and the parts of the light spectrum we are exposed to. Whilst on-going exposure to UV is very damaging, controlled levels of Red, Blue and Near Infrared light are clinically proven to be beneficial.
LED Phototherapy is the application of beneficial light to our skin to stimulate various cellular processes to produce a therapeutic effect.

Dermalux® uses evidence-based wavelengths delivered at a skin-enhancing intensity and dose to activate cellular renewal and repair, fuel the manufacture of collagen and elastin, reduce inflammation and destroy acne causing bacteria.

Following a Dermalux® LED Light treatment, there are some immediate visible changes in the skin but most changes occur naturally over a series of treatments. LED instantly awakens a tired and dull complexion. After just one treatment skin is hydrated, plump and radiant and redness and irritation is calmed. LED Phototherapy also promotes a feeling of wellbeing, helping to relieve the stresses and strains of everyday life!

A course of treatments is best and depending on your skin and medical history we usually recommend our patients start on an intensive course of 2 treatments per week for 1 month to kickstart their results, followed by maintenance treatments after that. LED offers lasting improvement in the appearance and health of the skin and results may continue to be seen up to 4 to 6 weeks.

Dermalux LED Light Therapy can also be used in combination with your regular skin treatments to optimise and accelerate results.

No, not at all, it is extremely relaxing.

Yes.

A Peel treatment is designed for most skin types.

Patients with active acne and those who have a lot of broken capillaries may be more suitable for other treatments, this will be discussed in your Skin Consultation.

As we offer a variety of Peels, your dermal therapist will discuss with you what prep may be required for each peel prior to completing the treatment. However, we do offer peels that require no prep, as long as your skin barrier is not compromised.

Sunburn, recent cosmetic or injectable treatments and other skin treatments (within a certain timeframe, generally 2-4 weeks depending on the treatment) may effect our ability to treat you on the day.

You may experience a slight tingle or warm sensation that subsides, but no pain.

You can have a peel every 2-4 weeks depending on the peel.

With any skin treatment there is always a possibility that you may slightly break-out afterwards. As Peels gently exfoliate and stimulates our skin, any congestion that was underlying may come to the surface.

If you are wanting to have a Peel before a specific event, we recommend booking 1 weeks prior if this is a concern for you.

Yes! There are a range of peels we offer that are suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding mums, allowing them to still have a beneficial and completely safe treatment!
