What happens during the treatment?

Each session begins with a consultation to assess skin condition, volume loss, and suitability, ensuring a tailored plan.

The treatment includes:

• Skin Booster Injections – Hydrating and plumping injections to restore volume, firmness, and elasticity to the hand skin

• Dermalux Light Therapy – LED therapy enhances cellular repair, stimulates collagen production, and reduces inflammation, supporting skin rejuvenation

• Finishing Products – Applied to hydrate, protect, and maintain results

• The result is hands that look smoother, plumper, and more youthful, with improved tone, elasticity, and overall appearance.

when will i see results?

The number of sessions and the timeline for results can vary depending on the individual’s skin condition, age, lifestyle, and the severity of concerns such as skin laxity. However, most treatment plans using skin boosters and LED therapy with the Dermalux Flex MD LED Phototherapy  are performed as a course of treatments to achieve the best outcome.

Typical treatment guidance:

• Recommended number of sessions:
  Most individuals benefit from 2-3 sessions, usually spaced 4-6 weeks apart. This allows the skin time to repair and produce new collagen between treatments while gradually improving firmness, hydration, and texture.

• When results may start to be visible:
  Some people notice initial improvements in skin hydration, glow, and smoothness within 1–2 weeks after the first treatment.
  Because collagen regeneration takes time, more significant improvements in skin tightening and stretch mark appearance are typically seen after 4–8 weeks, with continued improvement throughout the treatment course as collagen and elastin production increases.

• Maintenance treatments:
  After completing the initial course, maintenance sessions every 3-6 months may help sustain skin firmness, hydration, and overall skin quality.

Important note: Results vary between individuals, and a personalised consultation is usually recommended to assess skin condition and create the most suitable treatment plan.

Advanced Clinical Expertise You Can Trust

As a highly qualified Advanced Skin Science Practitioner with extensive training across injectable treatments, microneedling, chemical peels, regenerative therapies, and advanced skin boosters, every procedure is delivered with precision, safety, and a deep understanding of skin biology.

 

Aesthetic treatments should never be one-size-fits-all. When performed by under-qualified or inexperienced practitioners, treatments can lead to complications such as inflammation, barrier disruption, pigmentation irregularities, poor aesthetic outcomes, or even long-term tissue damage.

 

More aggressive does not mean more effective. Whether the treatment involves injectables, energy-based devices, or skin resurfacing, excessive or poorly judged intervention can compromise skin integrity and accelerate ageing rather than improve it.

​

A clinically guided approach ensures that every treatment plan is tailored, evidence-based, and designed to enhance results while protecting the long-term health and function of your skin.
