aka Spectra/Revlite toning
Low-energy Q-switched laser passes that gently break up excess pigment and even out overall tone across a course of sessions.
Helps with
Good to know
Works gradually and is usually sold as a package of several sessions, not a one-off.
aka Photofacial, Lumecca
Broad-spectrum light that targets redness and brown spots at once, evening out tone and fading visible vessels.
Helps with
Good to know
Great for sun spots and redness; less suited to deep melasma, which heat can sometimes worsen.
aka Hydrafacial, hydro-dermabrasion
A vacuum-and-serum facial that exfoliates, extracts congestion and infuses hydration in a single pass.
Helps with
Good to know
A gentle glow add-on, not a fix for scars or deep lines; often booked right before an event.
aka Water-glow injection, Juvelook, Profhilo
Micro-injections of hydrating or regenerative ingredients (often hyaluronic acid) spread across the face to add bounce and inner glow.
Helps with
Good to know
Plumps and hydrates from within; results build over a few sessions and fade over months.
aka Rejuran Healer, PN/PDRN, salmon-DNA injection
Injectable polynucleotides (from salmon DNA) that help repair the skin barrier and improve texture, elasticity and resilience.
Helps with
Good to know
A skin-quality treatment, not a filler - it improves the skin itself rather than adding volume.
aka Potenza, Sylfirm X, Secret RF
Fine needles deliver radiofrequency heat into the dermis to remodel collagen, tighten pores and soften scars.
Helps with
Good to know
One of the most versatile texture treatments; a series of 3+ is typical for scarring.
aka Fraxel, CO2 fractional, erbium resurfacing
Laser columns create controlled micro-injuries so fresh, smoother skin regenerates - strong for resurfacing scars and texture.
Helps with
Good to know
More aggressive means more downtime and strict sun avoidance - not ideal for the end of a short trip.
aka Ultherapy, Shurink, Ultraformer
Focused ultrasound delivers heat to deep support layers (including the SMAS) to tighten and lift without surgery.
Helps with
Good to know
Results appear gradually over 2-3 months; the number of shots matters more for value than the device brand.
aka Thermage, Oligio, Density, Volnewmer
Bulk radiofrequency heats the dermis broadly to contract and rebuild collagen for firmer, tighter skin.
Helps with
Good to know
Often paired with HIFU (RF tightens the surface, HIFU lifts deeper); ask how many shots or tips are included.
aka Exosome therapy, ASCE+, regenerative boosters
Cell-signalling boosters applied or injected alongside lasers or needling to calm inflammation and speed recovery.
Helps with
Good to know
An add-on rather than a stand-alone fix; the evidence is still emerging, so weigh the upsell.
aka Sculptra (PLLA), Radiesse, Juvelook/Lenisna
Injectables that prompt your own collagen to rebuild gradually, restoring firmness and subtle volume over months.
Helps with
Good to know
A slow, natural-looking build over 2-3 months - different from filler's instant volume.
aka Botulinum toxin, skin/jaw botox
Relaxes targeted muscles to soften expression lines or slim the jaw; micro-dosing can also refine pores and oil.
Helps with
Good to know
Wears off in 3-4 months and jaw-slimming takes weeks to show; very cheap per-unit pricing can mean diluted product.
aka HA filler (Juvederm, Restylane)
Hyaluronic-acid gel injected to restore volume, smooth folds or refine contour, with immediate results.
Helps with
Good to know
Instant but temporary (6-18 months); HA fillers can be dissolved if you dislike the result.
