Aesthetics - LUSH Aesthetics Harbour Front - Sara Shantelle Lim goes for Lush Crystal Laser and Lush DermaShine Skin Booster


Aesthetics - Sara Shantelle Lim goes to LUSH Aesthetics


So I've been to LUSH Aesthetics before, for a slimming treatment - Lush FAT FREEZE Treatment. They are very professional and their new outlet at Harbour Front is gorgeous. Designed in gold and nice marble flooring, you feel like you have just entered a hotel lobby. I like their golden chairs at their waiting area, made me feel like a princess who is about to go for a pampering treat.

 LUSH Crystal Laser 

 

So my skin isn't perfect, I am very lazy. I seldom go for facials, nor do I bother to use masks or much skin care products. So when its time to prepare for my Pre wedding photo shoot in Portugal and Prague. I start to panick! Will the high definition camera be able to see my PORES? Hence, I've decided to try 2 special treatments at LUSH Aesthetics Harbour Front. With this LUSH Crystal Laser, it is something like PICO laser I think, I'm suppose to achieve a flawless clear glass skin. Honestly, who doesn't want that? So as usual, I'm so afraid of pain, Lush Aesthetics applied some numbing cream for me first, before I proceeded with the treatment. 


While waiting for the numbing cream, I was looking around their room. It looks pretty fun and its good. I even spotted a CALL button which reminded me of like when I'm a patient as a hospital ward. They are really cool machines around the room, not sure what treatments they are for. But I'm pretty sure they have plenty of different treatments that could make a person look and feel better after each session. 


Lush Crystal Laser


After waiting for the numbing cream to work, they removed it and we started doing the laser session. Can you spot the RED DOT on my face from the machine? A really friendly and young doctor came into the room and help me to proceed with the treatment. He was very kind and gentle, so that was reassuring. Considering that I have a weak heart when it comes to anything painless or scary. 


"Glass Skin" with the LUSH Crystal Laser

Our LUSH Crystal Laser is based on the German Engineered Quadrostar Pro Yellow Laser. Due to its special wavelength of 577nm, LUSH Crystal Laser represents the gold standard for vascular treatments and epidermal pigmentation treatments. This is an improved version of the commonly used DualYellow/Combination laser at some clinics. 
The specific wavelength of 577 nm means that the LUSH Crystal Laser can be used to safely treat various conditions such as pigmentation, rosacea, red acne marks, uneven skin tone etc. The majority of visible unwanted skin spots, discolourations or redness (blood vessels), are rooted in a deeper vascular network of veins which can only be reached effectively with this light wavelength.

Improve Vascular Conditions

Facial/nose veins and blood vessels – the ProYellow Laser has the highest rate of absorption in red blood cells compared to any other lasers. This results in the reduction of unsightly veins or blood vessels on the face, especially common on the cheeks and nose.


Redness and rosacea – Redness and rosacea are caused by dilated (bigger in size) blood vessels. The ProYellow laser effectively reduces the size/or completely eliminates these blood vessels, therefore resulting in reduced redness and a more even complexion.


Red marks after acne – These red marks are also known as PIE (Post- inflammatory Erythema) or Erythema post-acne. The red marks formed due to increased blood circulation at badly-inflamed areas such as moderate to severe acne and persist even after the acne heals. The ProYellow laser can very effectively reduce these red marks by reducing the blood vessels in these areas.



Pigmentation & Skin Rejuvenation

Pigmentation such as melasma, sun/age spots, freckles – Due to its unique wavelength, the energy from the ProYellow laser is absorbed by both melanin (pigments) and the underlying blood vessels. This results in the breakdown of pigments and at the same time, reduces the blood supply to the skin cells that produce these pigments. This will prevent these skin cells from producing pigments and ensure longer-lasting results.


Skin rejuvenation – Apart from reducing redness and pigmentation, the ProYellow laser’s energy is also absorbed into the dermis (skin layer) to treat and improve the skin’s support structure. Skin will look brighter and feel tighter with just 1 treatment.

Acne

The yellow light energy from the ProYellow laser treats acne caused by P.acne bacteria by killing these bacteria, and at the same time reduces redness caused by inflammation.  The ProYellow laser also shrinks sebaceous glands that produce sebum (oil).

Results & Downtime

LUSH Crystal Laser has no downtime with quick recovery periods post-laser treatment. Improvements can be seen from the first session but this varies between individuals and the type of lesions or pigments. 

LUSH DermaShine Skin Booster
Penetrating Hyaluronic Acid into the Skin


So this treatment is suppose to help your skin absorb the Hyaluronic Acid that they are trying to penetrate into your skin. I thought that this treatment was really cool, only because this treatment looked like a GUN is penetrating into my skin. It was a little weird when the gun tip first hit onto the skin. But it was bearable. Luckily for me, nothing too painful or scary. Things we do to get better skin.. 


The DermaShine Skin Booster procedure uses a Crystal Injector along with Medical-Grade Hyaluronic Acid for Asian Skin to deliver the immense benefits of Hyaluronic Acid. The treatment contains hyaluronic acid in its purest form, a vital secret ingredient to achieve glowing skin. The treatment involves a series of tiny mesotherapy injections of hyaluronic acid into the targeted areas of the skin via the needle-free injector tips. 

Hyaluronic acid is naturally found in the body and functions to maintain hydration levels in the skin. However, due to aging and exposure to heat and humidity, the hyaluronic acid level in our skin diminishes over time.


The treatment replaces the lost hyaluronic acid in the skin and restores the skin’s firmness, natural hydration and radiance. Hydrated skin has a firm and smooth surface that reflects light in a manner that gives it a glowing, dewy appearance. It also stimulates the production of collagen and improves skin elasticity. Moreover, it reduces open pores, lifts and soothes away lines, and restores your skin tone and youthful volume.


The treatment is performed with a Crystal Injector that uses a multi-pin tip to deliver hyaluronic acid into the skin with precision and ensuring an even spread of the injected HA, which cannot be achieved via the conventional method of syringe and needles. This method of delivery allows a painless process and significantly reduces downtime and swelling.

All in all, I really liked the service at Lush Aesthetics. Very pretty place. Feels good. 
Its a must try if you want to achieve better looking skin.
That's for sure..

Chinese New Year is coming soon and it’s just a couple weeks away!!  It's time for me to visit to my most trust worthy aesthetic doctor again - Dr Elias Tam at EHA Clinic (www.EHAclinic.sg) at Shaw Centre #15-01, call 62353225. We did Dysport (Botulinum toxin) this time round, to remove my wrinkles and frown lines on my forehead and to slim down my Jaw line.

And yes, I took these photos myself when the jab is going into my face, so if you're wondering, is it painful? It's really bearable... Every girl wants to look more beautiful if you can.. It takes time, effort and money to be pretty, from sports to facials to jabs to eating right. Don't be lazy, go beautify yourself now. There's no such thing as an ugly girl, only a lazy girl...

  

My Korean Eyelash Extensions was done just next door at Pacific Plaza #03-08, The Prestige Eyebrow and Lash Specialist (www.PrestigeEyebrow.com) at $68 for 1st timers, call 67333369. Always quote my name "Sara Shantelle" for special discounts!!!

Botox, Dysport and Xeomin! Which is the best?

Mentioning about Botox, hmmmm… currently there’s another two new cosmetic treatment and they are  Dysport and Xeomin!!!!! OMG!! So confusing~ Which one is the most popular, cheaper, and effective among this three?



Botox

What is Botox? First question that pop up from some particular people who not really know what’s that actually. Well, Botox is the gold standard for softening frown lines, forehead wrinkles and crow’s feet.


On average, Botox lasts 4 - 6 months. Some people can get as long as 8 months, and some only get 2 months, but on average it’s a procedure you’ll need about 2-3 times a year. So, it depends on individually.Botox reaches it’s full effect after about 7 days. You will not notice any results immediately after the procedure but only on Day 3 onwards.


The cost for the average dose for a woman is 25-40 units, and for a man it’s 40-60 units. This means that a woman can expect to pay $400-600, and a man can expect $750-1000. Some practitioners charge by “area” rather than by the unit, and in most cases, this winds up being much more expensive. So, please make sure that you are ready for the charge given from different practitioners.Botox is the most expensive of the group, but in my opinion, you get what you pay for.
Dysport
Well, let’s talk about Dysport. What is Dysport actually? Dysport is the leading competitor to Botox right now. Some claims that it lasts longer like Botox and starts working sooner, but for the most part, those claims are unsubstantiated but one thing for sure is Dysport treat broader areas and of cause it would be much cheaper than Botox and cost roughly about $4-$6 per unit which sounds like a winner compared to the $12-20 per unit price of Botox.
One difference that is notable though is that people often describe the sensation that occurs when Dysport kicks in. And this has no difference compare to Botox. But I experienced it by myself and I felt nothing like  some people claims that they feels uncomfortably, numb or feel like got slapped on the forehead.
Well, I don’t want to comment further on Dysport because overall the result is about the same with Botox, but one thing for sure is, it’s much CHEAPER, LAST LONGER, and TREAT BROADER AREA.
Xeomin
What about Xeomin? To know my knowledge, Xeomin is the newest FDA-approved product comparing to Dysport and Botox. There aren’t many details yet on the main differences of Xeomin versus Botox and Dysport, but so far  only known advantage of this product is, it doesn’t need to be chilled before use and there’s no additive surface proteins like Dysport and Botox. For the cost of Xeomin, it could be $10 per unit slightly expensive than Dysport.
