STAFF TIP OF THE MONTH

Dr. Wong says:

MY FAVOURITE TREATMENT:  Dermamelan

People with Asian or darker skin tend to suffer from hyperpigmentation and/or melasma. With lighter skin types we have different lasers to treat the problem, but with a darker skin, risks are greater with lasers or IPL. Dermamelan is a peel that can be used safely on all skin types and even in darker skin, has minimal risks.  It is a comfortable treatment with little, if any, down-time.  There is a specific home care routine necessary to obtain optimal results.

Most of the time only one treatment is needed, although occasionally a second treatment helps the affected area to become even more uniform in colour.

MY FAVOURITE PRODUCT:  Fast Skin Repair

Some services have down time, even if the down time is simply a matter of dealing with dry, cracked skin, or red, swollen skin. Fast Skin Repair was made for post treatment services like Dermamelan or Fraxel where the skin needs to repair itself, and in the process may become dehydrated. Applied once or twice a day after treatment, the skin will repair itself quicker and with less irritation, allowing you less downtime, and better healing.
