The treatments offered at the practice, with what each one is used for, how a session works and what to expect afterwards.
Hyaluronic acid
Wrinkles, volume and facial contours
Hyaluronic acid injections are used to fill a wrinkle, restore volume or reshape a facial contour. The molecule occurs naturally in the skin, where it holds water. The injected gel is gradually broken down by the body, and it can be dissolved if needed with an enzyme called hyaluronidase.

Mesotherapy
Micro-injections for the skin and scalp
Mesotherapy involves injecting small amounts of product just below the surface of the skin with very fine needles. On the face, neck and décolleté it is also called a mesolift. The mixture then usually contains non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid, vitamins, minerals and amino acids, and aims to improve skin hydration and complexion. On the scalp, it is part of the treatment of some types of hair loss. It does not add volume and is not a substitute for a filler.

Calcium hydroxyapatite
Volume and collagen stimulation
Calcium hydroxyapatite is an injectable product made of microspheres of a mineral found in bone, suspended in a gel. It works in two ways. It adds volume that is visible straight after the injection, then stimulates collagen and elastin production over the following weeks. The body gradually breaks the product down but, unlike hyaluronic acid, it cannot be dissolved with an enzyme.

Bio-remodelling
Skin firmness and elasticity
Bio-remodelling uses a highly concentrated, non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid, injected at a few precise points on the face or body. It is not used to fill wrinkles or add volume. The product spreads through the skin, hydrates it and stimulates collagen and elastin production, with the aim of improving firmness and elasticity in skin that has started to sag.

Polynucleotides
Skin biostimulation
Polynucleotides are purified fragments of DNA, usually taken from salmon or trout, prepared as an injectable gel. Once injected into the skin, they stimulate fibroblasts, the cells that make collagen and elastin. The aim is to improve the texture, elasticity and hydration of the skin. They are not fillers and do not add volume.

Thread lift
Absorbable threads to lift sagging tissue
A thread lift uses fine, absorbable threads made of polydioxanone (PDO) or polylactic acid (PLA), placed under the skin with a needle or a cannula. The threads lift sagging tissue slightly as soon as they are in place, then stimulate collagen production around them for several months. The body absorbs them afterwards. The technique suits mild to moderate sagging and does not replace a surgical facelift.

Chemical peel
Renewing the surface of the skin
A chemical peel involves applying an acid solution to the skin to remove its outer layers. The skin then renews itself, which can improve skin tone, texture and some pigmentation marks. How deep it works depends on the acid and its strength. A superficial peel, with glycolic acid for example, works on the epidermis. A medium peel, with trichloroacetic acid (TCA), reaches deeper layers and causes several days of peeling.

Radiofrequency
Firming the skin of the face and body
Radiofrequency heats the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production. The device emits electromagnetic waves that create controlled heat in the dermis while protecting the surface of the skin. Existing collagen fibres tighten, then new fibres form over the following weeks. It is used to firm the skin of the face, the neck and some areas of the body.

Microneedling
Skin texture, pores and acne scars
Microneedling creates tiny punctures in the skin using a device fitted with sterile micro-needles. These controlled micro-injuries set off the skin's healing process, which produces collagen and elastin over the following weeks. The small channels also help active ingredients applied during the session, such as hyaluronic acid or vitamin C, to penetrate the skin.

Skin booster
Skin hydration through micro-injections
A skin booster is a non-cross-linked or very lightly cross-linked hyaluronic acid, given as many small injections in the upper layer of the dermis. It replenishes the skin's water reserve, with the aim of improving hydration, suppleness and complexion. It does not add volume or change the shape of the face.

Cryolipolysis
Localised fat treated with cold
Cryolipolysis is a non-surgical technique that cools an area of localised fat with an applicator placed on the skin. Fat cells are more sensitive to cold than the tissue around them. At a temperature of -5 to -12 °C, they go through programmed cell death, and the body clears them over the following weeks. It is not a treatment for excess weight. It is meant for localised fat in people whose weight is stable.

Hyperhidrosis treatment
Excessive sweating in specific areas
Hyperhidrosis is sweating beyond what the body needs to regulate its temperature. It most often affects the underarms, the palms of the hands or the face. The treatment is given by injections into the skin of the affected area. The injection temporarily blocks the nerve signal that activates the sweat glands, which reduces sweating for several months.
