Laser & IPL
Laser Rejuvenation: Either
laser resurfacing, non-ablative laser, or IPL or a combination of
these may be used for fine lines
and wrinkles, improving skin
surface texture, uneven
pigmentation, and surface capillaries. The latest non-ablative techniques
offer low “down-time”, with rapid return to normal activities.
Resurfacing: This covers a range of procedures including Laser resurfacing, chemical peels,
and micro-dermabrasion. These treatments can help with acne scarring, surface
irregularities and fine lines.
Skin tightening: A range of surgical procedures are available to tighten skin in a number or
areas, including trunk, thighs, arms and face. This may be necessary after
weight loss, pregnancy, or simple the effects of gravity over the years.
An exciting new non-surgical treatment is now available at GPS for
skin tightening, without any surgical scars. Known as Titan, this
high intensity light based treatment can cause loose skin to tighten,
and new collagen to be laid down under the surface. This is especially
useful in the face, and tummy, and allows return to normal activities
very quickly, even back to work the same day if you wish.
Hair removal
Whatever your skin type or hair colour, we can tailor a permanent
hair reduction program to suit your needs. We have both the Xeo laser
system, for effective hair reduction in all skin types, and the Aurora
system, for the optimal removal of hairs of all colours, including
blond hair.
Treating abnormal blood vessels
Facial Capillaries and Spider Veins: These
can be due to sun damage, hormonal changes, previous injuries, surgery
or some patients are just genetically predisposed to get them. In
any case these can be treated effectively with laser therapy.
Birth Marks: “Port wine” stains
and other types of vascular birthmarks can be faded using laser treatments.
Leg Veins: Surface spider veins, and
some deeper blue veins can be treated with laser therapy.
Treating skin pigmentation
Irregular skin pigmentation can be unsightly, due to sun damage,
hormonal changes, pregnancy, or simply even freckles. These problems
can be dealt with using IPL technology, peels or laser treatment.
