IMCAS Paris

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

The visit to IMCAS in Paris this January proved to be the most exciting yet, and proved a wonderful experience for the two members of our staff, Stefanie and Karen, who came with us. The experience they gained will prove invaluable to the range of treatments we can offer at our newly opened second clinic on the Kingsway, Swansea.

One of the most surprising treatments on the horizon is the soon to be released Botulinum Toxin cream, which will be of particular interest to those who dislike needles, or are new to cosmetic treatments, with the effects expected to last about 8 weeks. (more…)

The new clinic will provide a wide range of clinical cosmetic treatments from Botox and Sculptra; to luxurious facials and full body massages.

Perfectly situated on Swansea’s Kingsway, the clinic is only seconds away from ample parking, the city centre’s top retail outlets and, of course the renowned Andrew Price salon. So, after a hard day’s shopping you can call in for a haircut and tint followed by a relaxing facial or cosmetic treatment.

The new salon is currently under development and we’ll be announcing the launch date very soon, so watch this space.

The lectures, which contained a perfect mixture of new innovation and evidence, lifted the gloom that I had felt after returning from San Francisco. (more…)

Botox

Thursday, June 11th, 2009

Botox is still, without any doubt, the treatment of choice for lines & wrinkles of the upper face. The subtleness of its use is now in stark contrast with the perceived general opinion of the expressionless face, once so popular with ‘celebrities’. There has also been a rash of new ‘botox’ products on the market over the last few months, and we have yet to see if any of these new preparations show any distinct advantages over the tried and tested Botox and Dysport.
