The most exciting fact about the vitamin facial is that it can help intrinsic (genetically determined) ageing, hitherto considered an inescapable fact of life.

 

For skin that requires repair as well as nutrition, Meso-eclat is the next step up from our vitamin facial and is recommended for slightly older or more damaged, tired skin. First of all we perform a salicylic acid peel to exfoliate the skin. This feels a bit hot but is tolerable. Then we inject using the nappage technique a mixture of repair and restructuring ingredients; alpha lipoic acid, L-carnitine, chondroitin sulphate and organic silica. At the stage the skin feels quite hot but remains tolerable. Any droplets of the restructuring mesotherapy mix are rubbed into the skin at the end of the procedure. The face is a little red but this settles within an hour. Make-up can be applied immediately. The skin will flake a little after two days, but the longer lasting effects are more akin to TCA peeling – improved skin texture, luminosity, decreased pigmentation and improvement in laxity Meso-eclat is performed every week for five treatments. Don't expect Meso-eclat to be relaxing, but consider it a “Spring clean” for the face, just before the Summer bare-faced look.
