Laser hair removal uses a concentrated beam of light (laser) to remove unwanted hair.
During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the hair follicles within the skin that produce hairs. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth.
Although laser hair removal effectively delays hair growth for long periods, it usually doesn’t result in permanent hair removal. Multiple laser hair removal treatments are needed for initial hair removal. Laser hair removal is most effective for people who have light skin and dark hair, but it can be successfully used on all skin types.

Avoid other hair removal methods. Plucking, waxing, epilation and electrolysis can disturb the hair follicle and should be avoided at least four weeks before treatment.
Shaving treatment area. Trimming and shaving is recommended the day before laser treatment. It removes hair above the skin that can result in surface skin damage from burnt hairs, but it leaves the hair shaft intact below the surface.

Stay out of the sun. Avoid sun exposure before and after treatment.
Avoid any sunless skin creams that darken your skin.

Ulfit uses safe ultrasound energy (HIFU – high intensity focused ultrasound) which denatures collagen on a mass scale. It denatures damaged ‘type 3’ collagen which in turn promotes the production of ‘type 1’ collagen.
‘Type 1’ collagen is a stronger and younger collagen fibre that results in firming and lifting of the skin.
3 levels of the face are treated, the SMAS (muscle layer which is targeted during face-lift surgery), and two layers of the skin: Deep Dermis and Superficial Dermis. This multilayer treatment ensures that all required areas are targeted to achieve optimum results.
Immediate visible skin tightening and reduction of wrinkles is obvious, and continuous improvement in volume and appearance continues for up to 90 days post treatment as type 1 collagen is regenerated.

Almost any area including forehead, eye area, cheeks, jowls, wrinkles, chin, decolletage, arms, and abdomen can be treated.

Skin tightening; I recommend two treatments three months apart, then one treatment every 12 – 18 months.
Contouring and tightening of the body and abdomen are highly dependent on the client’s start point and body composition. I offer a complimentary consultation to discern how many and which treatments are recommended for you.

The treatment is non-surgical and non-invasive.  During treatment, you can expect a warm bubbling sensation under the skin, and you may experience some discomfort due to how deep the ultrasound technology penetrates.

I offer a complimentary consultation prior to Ulfit treatments and will advise you on essential pre treatment instructions.

You can expect your skin to be sensitive post treatment, you should be using a Soothing Serum and Post Treatment Balm for the first 4 days post treatment to keep the skin well-nourished as well as using a broad spectrum (UVA/UVB) sunscreen of a minimum of SPF 30+ daily.
In general, most clients experience very little post treatment pain and a little redness which quickly clears.
Swelling and redness is possible for 48-72 hours post treatment, and some clients may also experience some tenderness around the jaw, minor bruising, numbness, and tingling for 7-10 days post treatment. This is normal and will resolve on its own.
You may notice your skin feeling firmer and tight immediately after your first treatment, this is due to the initial minor swelling from the treatment and will reside within a few weeks.
