Touted as a breakthrough hair removal technique, Soprano Titanium is the ultimate combination of functionality and comfort. This hair removal treatment is much faster and pain-free compared to other professional hair removal treatments and is a great experience for both, clients as well as therapists, alike.
How does Soprano Titanium work?
Soprano Titanium laser uses an exclusive 3D technology meaning it combines 3 most effective laser hair removal wavelengths into one single applicator. This helps the laser target different depths of the tissue and areas within the hair follicle. Soprano Titanium is a painless, safe, and effective hair removal treatment because of extended coverage, comfort, and low maintenance/recovery time.
What are the benefits of Soprano Titanium Hair Removal treatment?
Reduction of damage around hair follicles:
Traditional hair removal lasers use intense pulse light (IPL) to remove the hair which is so strong that it heats and destroys the hair follicles and skin around it. Soprano Titanium hair removal is gentle and only heats the dermis to a temperature that destroys the hair follicle but doesn’t cause any damage to the skin around it, thus making it effective for all skin types.
Quicker than traditional hair removal treatments:
Better user interface of the Soprano Titanium hair removal treatment means it is quicker and more comfortable for both client and therapist.
Pain-free hair removal solution:
Laser hair removal is a technique which uses heat to break down and destroy hair follicles to prevent regrowth of hair. This can cause pain and discomfort. Soprano Titanium is equipped with a unique cooling system which causes only a warm, tingling sensation on the skin even at its maximum speed.
Popularly known as the Polka Dot treatment, Gold Standard Retinol Microneedling is currently all the rage in skincare. Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that uses a device called a dermapen to create tiny punctures in the skin’s surface, stimulating the body’s natural healing response and encouraging the production of collagen and elastin. This results in smoother, more radiant skin, and can also improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scarring, and hyperpigmentation.
Gold Standard Retinol Microneedling on the other hand, is a more advanced form of microneedling that incorporates the use of retinol into the treatment process. Retinol is one of the purest forms of vitamin A that has been shown to have numerous benefits for the skin, including reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin texture and tone, and promoting collagen production.
What makes Retinol Microneedling better than traditional microneedling?
To put it simply, Microneedling with Retinol makes it 100 times more effective because Retinol activates the cellular activity of the cells by giving it energy to work faster and more efficiently. it goes deeper into the skin than a topical application. It encourages faster collagen production and clears the skin for a fresher, radiant complexion.
What are the benefits of Retinol Medical Microneedling?
Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles:
Microneedling creates a false injury in the target area which activates the body’s healing response. The micro wounds created on the skin lets the retinol penetrate deeper into the skin. This leads to an increase in the production of collagen and elastin, which aids in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and the results are truly transformative.
Helps treat scars:
Retinol is effective in reducing the appearance of acne scars. It works by increasing cell turnover and promoting the growth of new skin cells, which can help to fade the appearance of scars over time. When used in conjunction with microneedling, it can penetrate deeper into the skin to target even the deepest scars.
Fights sun damage:
Retinol Microneedling significantly helps reduce the appearance of sun damage which manifests as hyperpigmentation, age spots, open pores, and uneven skin tone. The stimulation of collagen and elastin leads to replenishment of skin cells which gives the skin a radiant, youthful appearance.
Fights aging:
Besides wrinkles and uneven skin tone, your skin loses elasticity as you age. It also looks dull and lacks lustre. Retinol Microneedling ensures that the products penetrate deep within the layers of the skin to ensure the production of collagen and elastin which plays a vital role in keeping the skin youthful and plump.
Gold Standard Microneedling combines the wonderful effects of Medical Microneedling with those of Retinol. The benefits of retinol are as follows:
Treats acne
Reduces the size of pores
Accelerates cellular turnover
Reduces hyperpigmentation
Brightens skin tone
This 90 minute treatment includes thorough cleansing of the skin, followed by Enzyme exfoliation, manual extraction, peel, medical microneedling with retinol and leave the residue of the Retinol on your skin for maximum absorption.
Does Gold Standard Microneedling need any recovery time?
Clients have experienced temporary side effects like mild redness, tightness, itchiness, and mild peeling in the targeted areas for 2-3 days.

After a consultation with your therapist, a topical anesthetic will be applied to your lips. This is a crucial step undertaken to ensure you feel no pain during the procedure. About 15-20 minutes after the application of the anesthetic, your lips and the surrounding area will become numb.
The therapist will then use a fine needle to inject the filler into the lip- covering the edges, the center, and the corners of your mouth. This process is quick and painless as the needle is only inserted upto 2.5 mm into the skin.

Aging slows down the production of collagen and elastin in the body. This results in loose, sagging skin and the rapid appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the face. Face and body slimming treatments aim to target specific parts of the body and amp up collagen and elastin production resulting in skin tightening and reduction in the appearance of fine lines.
Enter, Viora- the future of face and body slimming.
One of the most popular and effective body slimming treatments the world swears by, Viora is a non-invasive technology that uses radiofrequency (RF) to deliver heat into the deeper layers of the skin without hurting the epidermis. This results in the breakdown of fat cells and an increase in blood circulation throughout the body. Viora is a multi-device treatment, meaning it uses
multiple handpieces that make targeting specific areas of the body like the back, abdomen, back, legs, and arms, easy. These handpieces are engineered to target specific parts of the body like the abdomen, back, legs, and arms. The therapist can also adjust the levels of intensity which helps them customize the treatment according to the specific needs of the patient.
Besides tightening and brightening the skin, Viora also has the following benefits:
Reduction in the appearance of Cellulite:
Viora’s technology is a combination of RF and vacuum therapy which also aids in the treatment of cellulite. RF energies penetrate deep into the layers of skin and stimulate the production of collagen while vacuum therapy aids lymphatic drainage.
No downtime:
Viora is one of the most painless body-slimming treatments. Many clients have gone so far as to say that they felt relaxed during the treatment and required no downtime after the procedure.
Cover multiple areas in one sitting:
Due to its non-invasive nature, the therapist can cover more than one body part during a session to speed up the process.

Before you go all in, let us caution you – Retinol is not for everyone. Look out for these 3 main barriers when using retinol:
1. Irritation and redness
2. Photosensitivity
3. Interactions with other ingredients
Those with sensitive skin or conditions such as rosacea or hyper pigmentation should avoid using it or consult with your therapist, as it may cause irritation or sun damage. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also steer clear of retinol. And while retinol is great at improving the appearance of your skin, it’s important to remember that it should not be mixed with certain ingredients, such as benzoyl peroxide, as the combination can lead to dryness and redness. Benzoyl peroxide is commonly used in acne treatments and products such as cleansers, face masks, exfoliating scrubs, moisturizers, etc.
It is important to note that Retinol should only be used at night and an SPF 50+ should be a non-negotiable part of your skincare routine.
Retinol can be your best friend if used correctly. When starting, start off with using it only once a week, if your skin has no reaction, increase to twice a week. When the skin is used to it, it is recommended to use every night.
Make sure your Retinol is a Pure Retinoic acid and not a derivative (ester) of Retinol. Some of these derivatives are called Retinyl Acetate, Retinyl Palmitate, Retinyl Propionate and Retinyl Linoleate. These derivatives are available to buy over the counter, where a pure Retinoic acid will be recommended or prescribed.
Women usually start using Retinol based on their friend’s recommendation but it is important to note that it is not suitable for all skin types. It is always better to take expert advice before starting out as it might not work out with the combination of other skincare products you might be using.

Pioneered by Ivory Aesthetics Clinic, Medical Microneedling is an advanced therapy dedicated to battling the first signs of aging. Besides addressing fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and wrinkles, Medical Microneedling has other benefits. Read on to find out how this therapy is out to change the way the world sees you.
Heals your skin:
Through the use of microneedles, Medical Microneedling therapy creates micro punctures in the skin which promotes healing through the production of collagen and elastin and has a regenerative effect on your skin.
Evens skin tone and shrinks pores:
The Medical Microneedling pen used in this therapy is equipped with 12 microscopic needles that penetrate the skin to promote the production of collagen, elastin, and fibroblast cells resulting in tighter, youthful looking skin.
Fights acne scars:
The Medical Microneedling pen can work wonders for reducing the appearance of acne scars as microneedles can break down hardened scar tissue- encouraging repair of the skin beneath.
What to expect at your Medical Microneedling session at Ivory Aesthetic Clinic?
Once you make your Medical Microneedling appointment at Ivory Aesthetic Clinic, our technician assesses your skin to understand and target problem areas like fine lines, wrinkles, and/or scars. After thoroughly cleansing the skin, a topical numbing cream is applied to decrease pain and discomfort during the procedure.
Then a pen-like device is used to inject microneedles into the skin causing micro injuries, better known as punctures. These micro injuries or punctures lead to the production of collagen and elastin. The science behind the micro abrasions is to stimulate the body to produce these healing agents which help repair skin.
Typically, one session of Medical Microneedling will take no more than a maximum of 20 minutes after the numbing cream takes effect. Depending on the issue, the technician may prescribe multiple sessions, usually spaced a month apart. As the treatment progresses, the needles will be penetrated deeper into the skin.
Clients traditionally see immediate results after a single session of Medical Microneedling. They experience plump and glowing skin for up to two weeks following the session. Best results are generally seen after 4-6 weeks. The treatment includes Dermalux LED Therapy to enhance the skin’s healing process, by reducing inflammation and promoting a clearer, healthier complexion.

Let’s face it. Ageing takes a toll not just on our skins and surfaces but also on our self-esteem. Saggy skin interferes with one’s confidence and can be the cause of discomfort- especially in a public setting. Enter Plasma Pen Skin Tightening- a revolutionary non-invasive technique that will eradicate loose skin and has minimal recovery time.
How does Plasma Pen Skin Tightening treatment work?
Also popularly known as Fibroblast treatment, it is a non-invasive alternative to surgical skin tightening procedures. It enables one to tackle sagging skin issues without going under the knife and dedicating weeks into after-care and recovery. The therapist uses a Plasma Pen to shrink the targeted skin. The tissues under the skin tighten during the procedure so the skin becomes elastic and taut. Post-treatment, the skin continues to tighten.
Does Plasma Pen Skin Tightening treatment have any side effects?
Before the therapist starts with the session, they apply a numbing cream. It is not uncommon to discover that your skin is abnormally red and may show signs of swelling immediately after the procedure. While this procedure is almost painless, a few patients have known to experience some amount of discomfort during it. It should be noted that patients experience peeling of the skin after the procedure. However, they are advised against picking it and let it naturally fall off to reveal the new skin underneath. Compared to surgical skin tightening procedures, the Plasma Skin Tightening side effects are far less.
The length of your skin tightening treatment depends on the targeted area and can go on from 30 minutes to up to 2 hours. A numbing and healing cream is applied before and after the procedure to ensure minimal discomfort and accelerate the healing process. It should be noted that patients have noticed results immediately after their session and continue to see the effects weeks after the session. Improved production of collagen leads to the skin looking tight and glowing!
