Naturally present in the dermis, hyaluronic acid is a visco-elastic gel, homogeneous and biocompatible, which retains a large amount of water thus ensuring hydration of tissues. It has a strong volumizing effect, and is injected into the dermis at varying depths depending on the type of wrinkles and areas to treat.
Hyaluronic acid is used to plump up wrinkles, reshape the lips and cheeks, restore volume fullness, restructure face contours.
The effect obtained is very natural and immediate. This means patients can be in and out of the center in virtually no time with instant gratification, and go back to their activities right away.
To maintain the result, it is necessary to undergo regular injections every 6 to 12 months.
VISTABEL™ is the trade name for botulinum toxin in aesthetics in France. It allows a targeted and accurate action on the muscles responsible for wrinkles. It has been used for over 25 years including 15 years in aesthetics, with more than 3.5 million cosmetic injections.
Botulinum toxin injections can delay or replace a brow lift, correct the vertical and horizontal forehead lines, “crow's feet”, perioral wrinkles, wrinkled cheeks, neck cords, crumpled décolleté, and gingival smile. It results a quasi-lifting effect of the upper face with a relaxed, rested, and more open look.
The injection takes a few minutes. Effects appear 3 to 6 days later and last about 6 months.
In Mesotherapy, the use of injectable anti-aging compounds of hyaluronic acid and other nutritious ingredients, helps to offset their natural loss or poor quality. Thus, they provide deep hydration to skins lacking radiance, tone, elasticity and firmness.
Mesotherapy is a technique involving multiple injections in the superficial dermis, along the wrinkles on the face, neck, décolleté and back of hands. It is indicated in smokers, and in cases of sun overexposure, dehydration, skin sagging, loss of density, tone, and suppleness.
The enhancement of the quality of the skin is at the same time visible, gradual and cumulative. The complexion becomes brighter and more uniform; skin is restructured, denser, and tightened.
RADIESSE™ is the trade name for calcium hydroxylapatite. It is a 100% biocompatible injectable, slowly absorbable, and composed of microspheres of calcium hydroxylapatite carried in a gel. It is injected under the skin surface through a thin needle.
It is indicated for treatment of many areas of the face: nasolabial folds, perioral lines (marionette lines, radial lip lines), depressions and blemishes like acne scars, hollow cheeks, nose and chin correction (bumps and unevenness), jawline contouring. It is also used to remodel the back of aged hands by reducing the appearance of veins and bones.
It gives the skin a soft touch and a natural look. The result is immediate and lasts up to 18 months.
Macrolane™ gels contain a pure and lasting form of a natural substance produced by the body that gives volume to the skin: hyaluronic acid or hyaluronan. Similar to the natural substance but more viscous and thicker, Macrolane™ is used to restore volumes and enhance body contours, for example in reshaping of breasts or buttocks, or to level out uneven skin surface. It improves skin tone and fullness as well.
The injection is performed at the center in one session, without leaving unsightly scars.
The result is significant and lasts at least 18 months. Natural biodegradation is very gradual and not noticeable. A top-up may be planned on a regular basis to maintain the result longer.
Chemical peels cause exfoliation of superficial layers of the skin and result, depending on their depth, in reviving radiance of the complexion and elimination of blemishes and fine wrinkles.
After the chemical solution is applied, it penetrates quickly in the skin, and leads to an actual rejuvenation resulting in a clearer and smoother skin. The result is long-lasting.
One or more peels, spaced at least 2 weeks apart may be necessary for best results.
The Fraxel™ laser is a fractional ablative laser, which abrades the skin, allowing its
renewal, without impeding normal social interactions, nor causing side effects or pain. It promotes the synthesis of collagen.
It works on fine lines and wrinkles, brown spots from aging, acne and surgical scars. It can treat all skin types and all body parts.
The best results are obtained in 3 to 5 sessions spaced 10 days to 3 weeks apart.
Thermage™ is a non-invasive method using radiofrequency which creates heat in the dermis, up to 7 mm deep. The heat produced stimulates renewal of collagen, thereby counteracts loosening of tissues, and tightens skin with a strong lifting effect.
It can make the skin smooth and firm without surgery, without injection, without downtime. It improves tone and texture of the skin, and reshapes while smoothing and firming. The contour of the face will be clearer and better outlined. It is possible to treat all areas of the face and body.
The treatment takes between 30 and 60 minutes in one session, and the patient is out of the center to return to daily activities. The result keeps improving over a 6 month period and last about 5 years.
Intra-dermal pigmentation uses the principle of tattooing, but only in the superficial layers of skin. It consists in a semi-permanent make-up. The holding of the result will vary, from 2 to 3 years, as the colour fades out and must be re-intensified.
The practitioner will suggest a design and colour to discuss with you in light of your desires and face features. Skin pigmentation is used to shape eyebrows, to contour and make your lips hem or pout, to intensify your look with eyeliner effect, and to blur scars and blemishes.
Thread-lift involves to lift upward and backward loose skin and fixate it in its new suspended position. It is an excellent non-invasive way to correct moderate degrees of sagging facial tissue.
This straightforward and safe procedure results in long-lasting raised eyebrows, taut cheekbones and cheeks, reduced jowls, and smoothed out crumpled neck.
Threads have a multitude of small hooks that, once engaged into the dermis, fixate the suspended skin and contribute to boost the natural production of hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin by the body. The procedure is simple and conducted under local anesthesia. The result is immediately visible, and can last 5 or 6 years.
A laser-assisted form of liposculpture, the treatment is designed to remove excess fat and allow effective skin retraction. Minimally invasive, the technique requires a cannula of 1 mm in diameter only, through which a fine fibre-optic
probe is introduced to deliver low-level energy. It is targeted at fat deposits resistant to diet or regular exercise regimen, such as those located on the face, forearms, upper abdomen or knees.
The result is the destruction of fat cells by rupture of their membranes, and the elimination of their content in a natural manner. No fat is suctioned out of the body, which prevents damaging blood vessels or nerve endings.
The procedure takes about 1 hour. Most of the result is immediate but will take its final, permanent shape, not until after 3 months. Daily activities can be resumed immediately after completion of the procedure.
A large number of professionals, many studies, several care protocols, an efficiency observed in over several thousands of patients have enabled LPG to develop Cellu M6 Keymodule, a remarkable medicalized aesthetic machine with tenfold increased performance in the treatment of skin, cellulite, edema, scarring, fibrosis, localized fat deposits, heavy leg venous deficiency, etc.
Cellu M6 has many indications. You will surely find a reason to try and adopt it. Cellu M6 gives you the right to be treated well!
The hair cycle can be broken down into 3 phases called anagen (growth phase comprising +/-85% of all hair), catagen (transition phase comprising 1% of all hair), and telogen (resting phase comprising +/-15% of all hair). At any given time, the three phases of hair cycle coexist on a single area of skin.
A laser is a source of coherent monochromatic light delivering a specific wavelength. For hair removal, the practitioner uses a laser whose light is a wavelength selectively absorbed by melanin (brown pigment that colors hair), which causes thermal destruction of the hair follicle.
Lasers are effective on hair in their growth phase. Therefore only about 85% of hair in the treated area will be destroyed. It is thus required to wait until all the hair go through this phase to destroy them with laser. Generally, complete hair removal takes an average of 8 sessions.
Subsequently, it is possible to carry out touch-up sessions to remove the hair that have escaped treatment (1 to 2 per year depending on patients). Once follicles have been destroyed, hair don't grow any more. Recalcitrant hair, especially clear hair, may require additional sessions.
