Dermasound & DF Facial Combo's.... Why you need one today!

Dermasound & DF Facial Combo's.... Why you need one today!

by Dom Slomczewski in Education

Have you ever wondered how you can level up your facial treatments?

Introducing our brand new powerhouse facial – the dermasound and DF combo.

This incredible facial combines the exfoliation of the dermasound, with the infusion and iontophoresis of the Environ DF Machine, leaving you with flawless, clean, plump, glowing skin.

So what does this mean and how does it improve my skin?

Lets break it down. What actually is a dermasound?

This is our most popular facial. A staple all on its own. Our dermasound facials use our high tech, top of the line technology to essentially vibrate any surface level dirt and debris from your skin. Think of a gurney removing dirt from your driveway, only for your face.

We start our facials off with our signature triple cleanse, followed by a thorough exfoliation using demineralized water with our dermasound machine, leaving you clean, but not stripped..

Then comes the incredible DF technology from Dr Des Fernandez, founder of Environ Skincare.

Using a combination of sonophoresis and iontophoresis to infuse ionized products into your skin, this is world class technology with no better way to get nourishment and hydration deep into your skin.

After our cleanse and dermasound exfoliation, we move onto the sonophoresis component to infuse specific ionized serums into your skin. Think plumping and hydration.

We then apply our incredible Environ Alginate mask and connect you to the machine for the iontophoresis portion of the facial. Think of this as a push pull effect within your skin, similar to the way magnets interact with each other.

So why is this facial different to any other facial you ask?

Simple… with the technology of the sonophoresis and iontophoresis, the effects continue for up to 3 hours after, essentially continuing the effects of your facial the entire time leading to much more effective outcomes.

Your skin will be glowing for days, feeling more plump, more hydrated and just more all round.

The sonophoresis makes your serums over 40 times more effective in your skin than just spreading topically and then with the iontophoresis using its push pull magnet effect, the products continue to move and infuse for hours.

When using your products to their full potential, the skin result possibilities are endless.

So what are you waiting for? Book in a Dermasound DF combo today. No one ever regrets a facial…

How do I know what to use on my skin?!

How do I know what to use on my skin?!

Do you often look online for skin care advice and have no idea where to start? This is a pretty common issue for most people, especially if this is your first experience in the skin care realm. Fortunately for you, it doesn’t need to be so complicated. Getting started on your skin journey should be simple. Something you understand and can easily follow – not a 15 step routine that leaves you feeling overwhelmed with no idea what order to use the products in, and what they are all actually doing. This is where your skin experts come in. If you walk into a salon for the first time, looking to correct your skin, then walk out an hour later with 10 new products and considerably less money, you’re in the wrong place. Clear, concise instructions with 1-3 targeted products should be what you are looking for as a starting point. Simple yet effective. So, how do you get started, and how do you find someone that can help you on your journey? Lets start with the basics – Cleanser – this should be your first step in any skin care routine. Cleanser is essentially a soap for your face. It removes dirt, debris, oil and sunscreen from the day. Easy. Moisturiser – think of this as a drink of water for your skin. Keeping you hydrated and balanced. Sunscreen – an important step in everyone’s skin care routine. Protecting you from the sun like an umbrella protects you from the rain. Using an SPF daily is the best anti-ageing step you can take. Not only do we need protection from the sun, we need protection from UV rays everywhere. Even your computer when you’re inside all day. That’s all you need to get started. Simple. Cleaning, balancing, protecting. Once you have the basics down, we can start adding in for more targeted treatment, such as serums for more in-depth conditions. This is the most effective way to get started. We worry about the ingredients, so you don’t have to. We carefully choose the products based on the ingredients you would benefit from the most, to target the concerns that you have. Unfortunately, everyone’s skin is different and there is no one size fits all in the skin care world. This means that the cleanser we use on ourselves or that we recommend for your colleague or neighbour, may not be the same that we recommend for you. Living in an age of “skinfluencers” all over social media can be confusing. All different people with no actual qualifications, giving you recommendations based on what has solely worked for them... Just because it worked for them, doesn't mean it will work for you.  A lot of this is where it becomes complicated, people using things that worked for their friends that have caused a completely different response, in completely different skin. Again, everyone’s skin is different, and one size DOES NOT fit all. Also understanding that clinical treatments are not a one stop fix. One facial, or even a treatment once a month, while important, is not going to fix everything. Your homecare is such an integral part of any skin journey, and using it consistently is where your results are going to come in strong. Preparing your skin for the treatments and using these as a tool instead of the entire plan will leave your skin in a much healthier, happier position. Healthy skin is always our end goal. Pairing your home care with tailored, targeted treatments regularly in salon is the best plan to keep your skin looking and feeling its best. From regular facials to more targeted treatments like laser, IPL and skin needling, skin health is incredibly important. Your skin is your body’s largest organ, and if it’s not healthy, neither are you. Trying to decipher all the treatments and ingredients, what they do and what is best for your skin can be overwhelming, but that’s where we come in as skin therapists. We bring years of training, knowledge and hands-on experience to do all the hard work for you. Getting to know your skin, your routine and your lifestyle, we formulate tailored one on one plans with you to treat your skin in the way it needs, giving you the results that you want. Our favourite question to ask is, “If there was one thing you could change about your skin, what would it be?” As clients, you generally come in because one thing drives you to address your skin more than another, so treating this first and simply is always the best way to get started. We take comprehensive notes, before and after photos and check in with you along the way to make sure things are working well for you, how you’re feeling post treatment and how your goals are looking. These all help us to form an entire story based around your skin, rather than little bits and pieces. The notes and photos form a time line, so even when you can’t see the difference over the months, we have a clear way to see the subtle yet big changes your skin is going through. Getting started will be the simplest thing you do this year. Start with one of our skin revision consults, where we can use our incredible skin scanner to analyze your skin conditions and concerns, discuss treatments and products, and make a lasting plan to suit you, your skin goals and your budget. The most effective routine isn’t the most products or the most expensive, it’s the one you’ll actually stick to. Consistency is key and a skin journey is exactly that, a journey.

Why don't the colours I like suit me?!

Why don't the colours I like suit me?!

Do you ever just look in your cupboard and think "uhhh i have nothing to wear"?Well, you and me both.  But sometimes this has less to do with what you see in the cupboard and more to do with the knowing it wont look the way you want, or how it looked in the shop on the mannequin, and more to do with how it looks when you put it on.  Do your eyes sparkle when you wear that yellow top? Does your body curve in the right places in those jeans? Same goes with makeup. The gold eyeshadow doesn't look the way on you as it does on your friend Sarah, but boy do you rock that hot pink lipstick! Chances are it's not you, its the clothes. Its the makeup. Its the colour, the tone, the style. Its not wrong, its just wrong for you. Knowing what's right for you though - complete game changer! To be able to walk into a shop and confidently pick something out, knowing its your colour and style and you're going to look incredible. So how do you come by this knowledge, you say? Where does this confidence you speak of come from.  Well, my friend, let me tell you. There are 4 seasons in a year. When you think of each season, you think of colours. If I say autumn, you think of warm tones, browns and creams. All warm and cosy. But if I say winter, you think cold. Stark tones like black or white. Crisp, clean and bold.  Everyone has a season. For me, I'm a spring. This means my tones are warm, but muted. I need beige, browns, mustards. Warm tones, but soft. Soft to help accentuate my features. But the minute I wear black, I look pale, washed out and almost unwell.  Once you know your season, seeing the way you wear colour, or colour wears you, becomes something you can't unsee. But what happens if you wear the wrong length, or shape, or style of clothes. You've got your colours, but something still isn't quite sitting right?  This is all to do with body shape and proportions. Someone with long legs and a short torso can look incredible in something, that someone with a long torso and short legs looks completely different in. It changes the shape of your body. Straight pants, baggy pants, tight fitted pants. You feel good in that one pair of jeans you've had for a million years but the current trendy flares look horrible on you.  This isn't something you can change by adding or subtracting weight, this is how your body is made. Its the structure under the skin. The good news is, we can help you find your correct style, along with your correct colours, and these are something you will keep and use for life.  Our colour and style courses help women all over to learn what best suits them, from colours, to styles, to makeup and everywhere in between.  We team up with our colour and style expert Rita, with her expertise in all things style to our expertise in all things makeup, it really is the dream team. Our Jane Iredale mineral makeup boasts classic colours for every tone and every season. Being the largest mineral makeup brand in the world, there's a colour to suit every season.  Here at Beauty Effects, we strive every day to help women feel their best, their most confident and their most beautiful. This is why we regularly run our colour and style courses. To help women understand how to look and feel their best, because when you look good, you feel better.

Laser vs IPL... What's the difference?

Laser vs IPL... What's the difference?

By now you’ve probably heard all the chatter through the salon and all over our socials, but we are beyond excited to be introducing Laser & IPL into the salon! While this is super exciting, for a lot of people (including us) this can be confusing, and has been a massive process.. While the terms Laser & IPL are often used interchangeably, they are definitely NOT the same. Both are powerful light-based technologies, both can improve the skin, but there are some very big differences. So what are they and how do we decide what the best modality is for you? Laser in Queensland looks a little different to most of the rest of the country. Queensland, Western Australia and Tasmania are the only states in the country where we as technicians are required to hold a license, and do a certain amount of supervised hours to be able to use a laser. This makes this an astronomical endeavor to bring laser into a clinic that doesn’t already have a qualified laser tech. This seemed outrageous, until we started diving deep and learning all there is to learn about laser technology, and now we are wondering why it isn’t required everywhere. With so much to learn our brains very quickly started soaking in all the information we could get our hands on and wow is there a lot of information out there. From client experiences at other clinics to all the science behind the skin and how laser and IPL interact. There is so much to learn and if there’s one thing we enjoy most, its learning and improving our collective knowledge to bring you, the client, a better experience. So with that said, lets break it down. Both laser and IPL use light energy to target specific things within the skin called chromophores (the part of the molecule that is responsible for colour). These chromophores are -           Melanin (pigment in hair and brown spots) -           Haemoglobin (redness, capilliaries, rosacea) -           Water (skin rejuvenation and collagen) The key difference between Laser & IPL is HOW the light is delivered. Laser produces a single, highly concentrated wavelength of light. Think of laser as a sniper rifle. Search and destroy. One precise beam of light, targeting one specific concern – small spots extremely precisely. Because the wavelength is fixed, laser can penetrate deeper, target more precisely, deliver more consistent results and work on a wider range of skin types when the correct wavelength is used. Laser is ideal for things such as -           Deep, stubborn pigmentation, -           Safe treatments on higher fitzpatricks (darker skin) -           Faster & more efficient results -           Fewer sessions Now onto IPL. IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. It uses a broad spectrum of light, with interchangeable filers to target the different concerns, spreading over a range of wavelengths to treat multiple skin concerns at once. Where Laser is a sniper rifle, think of IPL as a machine gun. Pulsing the light into the skin in a broader range. Less precise, but still very effective in its own lane. IPL is ideal for -           Redness & Broken capilliaries -           Rosacea and redness/flushing -           Photodamage & pigmentation -           Skin Rejuvenation -           Collagen Stimulation -           Overall skin tone and clarity So with the difference in the modalities, why will we be introducing both into our clinic? Simple – because it will give you, the client, a much more tailored experience. Both options do their job well, but in different ways. Laser is perfect for deeper pigment, IPL gives the best results for vascular (capilliaries/redness), sun damage and skin rejuvenation. So laser & IPL aren’t competing treatments and they definitely aren’t the same. They compliment each other like wine and cheese. Using the right light for the right concern in what delivers real, visible, consistent results, and we can’t wait to get started.
