Feel happy with yourself

At The Park Club we are promoting an active and healthy lifestyle in its fullest sense: involving nutritional, physical, mental wellbeing and prevention. Feeling happy with your appearance gives you greater confidence, and this in turn has positive effects in your personal and professional life. With amazing developments in the anti-aging and beauty industries, the procedures and products now available are more effective, safer, less invasive and require little or no down-time.

At The Park Club MediSpa we use only methods that are proven to be safe, effective and those which pass our rigorous assessment and selection procedures.

Some background about the aging of the face

As we grow older there are some inevitable changes that affect how we look and these limit the extent to which day-to-day beauty therapy treatments alone can help:

As we age the bony skull shrinks resulting in the eyes and the nose sinking in those growing apertures.

The fat pads in the face shrink resulting in volume loss beneath the skin.

As we age wrinkles and folds appear.

With age we lose hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin (among many other substances) from the skin so it gets thinner and loose.

How treatments build on each other? Our tier approach.

Beyond pampering or grooming you can have result driven treatments tailored for your specific concerns.

Everything starts with an in depth consultation with one of our beauty professionals or Dr Bela, our in-house resident dermatologist. Throughout this discussion an individualised care plan is made listing the choices of treatments answering your concerns and desires. Finally when you understand all the benefits and possible side effects of the treatment options you can make your choices and finalize your overall, holistic treatment plan. Both our beauty and the medical department can be involved giving you the different levels (tiers) of treatments.

Below, I summarise the treatment options for you and explain how they complement each other.

This is a must for everyone who cares about their skin. Beauty: skin analysis, facial and body treatments, pain free laser hair removal and laser skin tightening. Medical: skin check (mole clinic or skin cancer screening), medical grade skin care with prescription strength products (ZO Medical).

Fundamental treatments of the aging face: wrinkle treatment (Botox) of the upper face and volume replacement of the mid-, and lower face.

Preventative or biological methods using the power of nature.

TIER 1:

All treatment should start and end with the skin itself. This is a collaboration between you and our medical and beauty professionals. A daily skin care regime that is tailored to the current condition of the skin is key in looking your best. With conditions like ie. sun damage, acne or rosacea where beauty treatments alone may not be enough, effective medical grade treatments are used.

Also, the skin needs to be prepared for any kind of aesthetic procedures so before we begin anti-aging treatments we will start with a proper skin analysis and an assessment of your skin care routine, the products you use, whether they are suitable for your skin type and its condition.

TIER 2:

The next two fundamental, non-surgical treatments are muscle relaxants and fillers. With hyaluronic acid non-permanent fillers (Juvederm or Restylane) we can volumize the face (the cheeks, chin), replenish the lost curves (due to fat resorption), treat deep wrinkles or shape the lips.

Muscle relaxants help get rid of the frown and horizontal lines or crow’s feet. These treatment modalities, combined with a proper skin care regime are fundamental to regaining a more youthful look. Fillers last approximately 9-12 months while muscle relaxants last, on average, 3-5 months.

TIER 3:

In Tier 3 there are treatment modalities with preventative and therapeutic effects. These are biological procedures that use the power of nature to fight aging.

The basic technology is Dermaroller and most recently the derma-pen that gives more homogenous results.

This is a natural anti-aging and scar treatment method. It is based solely on the power of nature where tiny needle pricks trigger a healing and proliferation process leading to a significant increase in collagen and elastin production. The skin gets thicker and brighter, whilst wrinkles and scars fade.

PRGF-Twilight therapy uses the patient’s own plasma rich in growth factors (from own blood). We administer the plasma into the skin where it boosts collagen synthesis with the myriads of your own growth factors.

Mesotherapy is a superficial injection technique that can be used to treat a variety of conditions. We use different active ingredients (known as cocktails) or the patient’s own plasma.

Depending on the condition being treated the active ingredients administered will vary. The treatment is tailored to the patient’s specific needs. This technique is used in the treatment of hair loss, cellulite, double chin, brightening of the skin, improving skin texture and lightening of age spots.

Medical grade peels or chemo-resurfacing is the use of different acids to re-build the superficial layer of skin and to stimulate collagen production, epidermal turnover and regulate melanin production (age spots).

Beyond these you can have blood tests for several preventative and diagnostic measures or you can have minor surgical interventions as well like mole, skin tag and wart removals.
