Innovative new beauty treatments

Pamper yourself and get serious results with these innovative facials and body blitzes

THE LOW-DOWN: Dr Jules Nabet s Zer02 treatment combines Zerona cold laser technology with Carboxy CO2 Therapy for dramatic cellulite reduction and inch loss. Zerona (the latest beauty buzz in the US) targets the fat-storing cells, shrinking and collapsing them. The fat is then released from the body through the lymphatic system. The Carboxy Therapy involves micro-injections of C02 just beneath the skin s surface, which help to break down localised fatty deposits, stimulating collagen production and increasing circulation. RESULTS: Overall fat and cellulite reduction (expect up to 5cm inch loss within three weeks) as well as smoother, firmer skin with an improvement in the appearance of stretch marks and scars.

The Anti-Ageing Mood Enhancer

THE LOW-DOWN: The LED Light Therapy Skin Rejuvenation pod is a full body and face treatment that uses convective dry thermal heat and near-infrared heat along with intense LED light to tighten and tone the skin by replenishing damaged skin cells and stimulating the production of new collagen. The combination of red light and the thermal heat has been shown to also increase basal metabolic rate (BMR), which in turn aids weight loss. The LED works to stimulate our serotonin inhibitors, too, which become depleted in the winter months.
RESULT: You ll emerge looking beautiful and feeling happy.

discount on a course of six treatments.

The therapist will then follow up with a personal prescription of skincare
products and key massage techniques.
RESULTS: Facial muscles are defined, the face is lifted and wrinkles smoothed.
