ACNE Acne has many contributing factors and
stages, it is imperative to consult asses and
treat individually with each patients needs and
lifestyle. Dr Saras had been working closely with
skin conditions since 1988, she may prescribe
prescription creams or oral medications after a
thorough analysis of the condition and its
causes. Treatments for Acne Peels-see peels Acne
Laser
DESCRIPTION Acne infections increase blood supply
in the affected area, Acne Laser is drawn to
this excess blood under the skin. A comfortable
heat will be induced, killing the Acne causing
bacteria. This Acne laser treatment also works to
safely penetrate the skin to thermally and
selectively destroy overactive sebaceous (oil)
glands and calm inflammation. In addition, acne
laser treatment accelerates the healing process
and stimulates collagen, an important step in the
long-term treatment of acne.
BENEFITS OTHER FACTS It is imperative with ALL
lasers that patients avoid ANY sun exposure,
tanning beds, and fake tanning products for at
least 4 weeks prior to treatment. Resulting in
less inflammation. Fewer breakouts, less oil
production and lesser chance of scaring Pending
on the severity of the acne 3-6 follow up
appointments are recommended at 2 week intervals.

FRACTIONAL LASER SKIN RESURFACING Fractional
Laser Skin resurfacing is a fast, safe and
simple procedure it will induce a lesser degree
of down time than its fully ablative
counterparts. Treatments can range from light
ablative rejuvenation treatments, to Acne scar
reduction, to deep collagen remodeling. We can
tailor your treatment to your specific
concerns and areas of concern. Fractional laser
skin resurfacing allows the penetration depth to
be precisely controlled, unlike other
unpredictable scar reduction therapies, rendering
it very safe and the outcome very predictable.
Feedback from our patients having this
treatment is they were back at work the very
next day in some cases. Ie the social down time
is quite minimal.
DESCRIPTION Light Rejuvenation
Old, worn-out skin is gently ablated away. The
precise micro-ablated channels will be
replaced with new, tighter and healthy tissue as
new skin forms. Great for plumping fine fines and
a deep rejuvenation for a fresh smooth glow!
Acne Scare Reduction
Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing is ideal for
easy gradual scar reduction. Safely and
effectively provides minimal ablation depth
required for resurfacing acne-scarred skin,
helping to improve skin texture and tone. The
laser gently ablates micro-thin layers of
acne-scarred skin to reveal healthy, undamaged
smoother skin below. Results are best seen from
a course of 3 or more treatments at 4-6 week
intervals. Immediately see a smoother skin and a
reduction in congestion and breakouts Expect pore
size and acne scars to reduce when undertaking a
course of treatment.
Ageing Ideal if you would like drastic
rejuvenation anti-aging effects, but are not
inclined towards surgery or injectable
alternatives. Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing
will result in remodeling and stimulation of new
collagen, as well as refreshing the upper layers
of the skin. In the case if superficial sun
damage can even lighten pigment! Also see Twin
light Laser for Aging Providing a softer,
smoother, tighter look and feel to the skin.
Fantastic on plumping lip lines and improving
areas of creapy skin.

LASER HAIR REDUCTION DESCRIPTION Growth can be a
result of medication, genetics or hormonal
changes, or just plain unwanted hair! Either way
we make it easy and safe to remove on ALL SKIN
TYPES! At Dr Saras Co. we use only the safest
and most advanced technology, Fotona ND Yag
primarily aims to destroy the blood supply at the
base of the follicle rendering hair growth
impossible. Due to minimal blood flow elsewhere
in the skin ,no damage will occur to the
surrounding tissue, making Fotona ND Yag not only
top of its class in long term hair reduction and
safety, but unlike many lasers SAFE AND EFFECTIVE
ON ALL SKIN COLOURINGS. A thorough consultation
of steps to follow before and after treatment
and a patch test is always conducted, this allows
you and our therapists to see and feel the skin
response and be comfortable with the procedure to
follow. We recommend shaving 2-3 days prior to
your treatment, however, for the face, it is
best to leave the area untouched. No waxing,
tweezing, electrolysis, threading or bleaching
the area at least 4 weeks prior to the
treatment. It is imperative with ALL lasers that
patients avoid ANY sun exposure, tanning beds,
and fake tanning products for at least 4 weeks
prior to treatment.
BENEFITS FACTS Usually 8-10 treatments at 6-8
weeks intervals are recommended for a 95
reduction in growth. Though the number of
treatments required varies with several factors.
This will assessed and discussed through your
consultation. Time spend in treatment will range
pending on the areas to be treated eg UA takes
only 3-5 minutes.
Erythema (redness) and slight oedema (swelling)
are very normal after having a laser
treatment and usually resolve after a few hours,
however redness may last up to a day or
two. Keeping the area free from heat or friction
for 48 hours is very important and ice may be
applied to help the cooling process.
To all clients we recommend using our Post
Laser Lotion to reduce inflammation and calm
the area. On facial areas using an SPF is very
important. You may continue shaving throughout
your treatments, you will notice hair will
grow back finer and softer and patches where no
hair grows back at all! Even after just 1
treatment 45 of patients notice greater than a
50 reduction in growth!

ROSACEA Rosacea typically begins as redness on
the central face across the cheeks, nose, or
forehead. In some cases, additional symptoms,
such as semi-permanent redness, (dilation of
superficial blood vessels on the face), red domed
papules (small bumps), flushing and
sensitivity occur.
Daily activities such as stress, alcohol or
spicy food can flare this flushing. Resulting
in unwanted redness.
Through advised product choices and maintaining a
laser program we can help control the severity of
roceasa, and remove the dilated vessels
associated with the condition. Treatments For
Rosacea
REMOVAL OF RED VESSELS
DESCRIPTION FACTS We are able to treat
various vascular lesions with Fotonas precision
penetrative abilities. Energy from the laser is
absorbed by broken, enlarged or dilated vessels.
This creates heat in the unwanted vessel,
destroying the vascular wall. The body will clear
the vessel tissue naturally. It is imperative
with ALL lasers that patients avoid ANY sun,
tanning beds, and fake tanning products for at
least 4 weeks prior to treatment. Treatment is
relatively painless, we use a cool gel and a -40
air flow for your comfort.
Pending on size of treatment area, treatment can
take anywhere from 10 minutes (eg nose) for
a small area to 20 minutes on a larger area (eg
legs) Down time is minimal if any, Erythema
(redness) and slight oedema (swelling) are very
normal after having a laser treatment and usually
resolve after a few hours, however redness may
last up to a day or two.
Keeping the area free from heat or friction for
48 hours is very important and ice may be
applied to help the cooling process. To all
clients we recommend using our Post Laser
Lotion to reduce inflammation and calm the area.
On facial areas using an SPF is very important.
Mineral make up can be applied immediately.
Treatments are performed at 4-6 week intervals.
Number of treatments necessary will vary with
the location, network area, and size of the
unwanted vessel.
Generally 2-3 treatments is enough to clear a
small area like the nose.

3D LASER REJUVENATION DESCRIPTION 3D Laser
Rejuvenation is a 3-dimensional, non-ablative
procedure. It induces a 3D pattern of micro
wounds into prematurely aged or damaged portions
of the skin. The natural healing response of the
skin then repairs these micro wounds, thereby
rejuvenating the skin, improving health, texture,
tone and colour.
As usual,It is imperative with ALL lasers that
patients avoid ANY sun exposure, tanning beds,
and fake tanning products for at least 4 weeks
prior to treatment.
At Dr Saras Co we love this treatment as an
add on to complement other laser
treatments (see twin light Laser treatments) We
also love it as its so easy!! NO DOWNTIME, no
pain and completed in 15 minutes!
BENEFITS FACTS Treatments alone are best done
as a series. A minimum of 6 treatments, 2 to 4
weeks apart, are recommended. Follow-up
treatments will be needed to maintain continued
collagen growth.
TWIN LIGHT LASERS TWIN LIGHT AGEING DESCRIPTION

Hyperhidrosis Approximately 1 of the population
is affected by significant excessive sweating
(hyperhidrosis), usually affecting the palms, the
armpits, the soles of the feet, and sometimes
the face. Hyperhidrosis is a serious medical
condition, affecting work productivity, daily
activities, emotional well-being and personal
relationships. Antiperspirants are the first-line
treatments for hyperhidrosis, but these
frequently fail.
HYPERHIDROSIS TREATMENT DESCRIPTION Treatment
helps control the symptoms of severe underarm
sweating by blocking the chemical signals from
the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. When
the sweat glands dont receive chemical signals,
the severe sweating stops. Botox injections are
expected to temporarily stop the production of
excessive sweat in the treated areas only. Sweat
continues to be produced elsewhere.
The actual treatment takes about 10 to 15
minutes. A small amount of solution is injected
into the affected area through a very fine
needle, so you may experience some
injection-related discomfort. Youll receive
about 15 injections during the session
BENEFITS AND FACTS You should notice a
significant reduction in underarm sweating within
4 weeks of your first treatment.
Once the treatment becomes effective, you may be
able to stop using dress shields and carrying
extra changes of clothing, and you can probably
use a regular deodorant instead of a prescription
antiperspirant. Treatment last up to 6 months
ttreatment is not a cure your symptoms will
return gradually, and you will know when the
time is right for another treatment. Your sweat
doesnt go anywhere else or get backed up, the
sweat simply is not produced in the areas treated
with Botox.
9
SCLEROTHERAPY DESCRIPTION Contributing factors
include Heredity, Pregnancy, Hormonal changes,
Being overweight, Standing or sitting for
prolonged of time, Advancing age, Trauma,
Sun-exposure for veins on the face.
Sclerotherapy is a simple procedure, the surface
veins are injected with a solution, causing
them to collapse and fade over time. The body
easily absorbs the collapsed veins, causing no
distress to the other veins. After treatment we
recommend that compression stockings be worn for
three to five days and for a week after treatment
of larger varicose veins.
Abstain from high impact activities such as
running or step aerobics for three weeks. Walk at
a moderate pace, as it will aid in the healing
process. As with any procedure, some mild
side-effects might occur. These side effects
include slight redness to the skin tone or mild
swelling in the treated area. Occasionally, a
treated vein will reopen, requiring another
treatment
BENEFITS FACTS Eliminating these damaged veins
from your legs can result enhancing your
appearance and boosting self-confidence. A
minimum of 3 treatments is at 2 weeks intervals.
10
DERMASTAMP DESCRIPTION Dermastamp uses very fine
needles to penetrate the skin safely and
cleanly. In short, this triggers a healing
response in the skin, inducing collagen and
elastin production, and resurfacing uneven
texture. This is unlike any heat or laser based
resurfacing treatment as there is no skin
burning, heat or skin coagulation, this means we
can use it on any skin type safely and the down
time is dramatically reduced. The skin is cleaned
and sterilized. Generally the skin will need to
be numbed to ensure your comfort. The tip will
glide over your skin creating stimulating
channels and an even flushing is the best
indication for a perfect medical treatment. The
treatment usually takes around 1.5 hours in total.
BENEFITS FACTS Treating Fine Lines, Wrinkles,
Pore Size Reduction, Stretch Marks, Acne
Scarring Scarring Treatment intervals are as
follows For Collagen Skin Rejuvenation - 4-6
treatments / 4 wks apart For Scars Acne Scar
Reduction - 6 treatment / 4 wks apart
Pigment Pigmentation is a result of sun
exposure, ageing, hormones (melasma), pregnancy
(chloasma) , some medications and skin damage.
IPL (Intense Pulse Light) IPL is a non-ablative,
meaning that is does not damage the surface of
the skin. It works by emitting a varied
wavelength of Intense Pulsed Light into the
skin. Light will target colour pigments such as
melanin in brown spots and freckles, and
haemoglobin in broken or diffused blood vessels.
Light also targets bacteria, and induces collagen
and elastin production.Once this light is
absorbed into pigments it will break down the
brown pigmented cells, seal off any small
dilated blood vessels or back ground flushing,
stimulate the production collagen and elastin,
and kill acne causing bacteria Caution is
required when treating people with dark skins,
Asian skins and some other skins which tan very
easily as IPL is absorbed into these darker skin
types. Not just the unwanted pigment lesions. A
thorough consultation of and a patch test is
always conducted, this allows you and our
therapists to see and feel the skin response and
be comfortable with the procedure to follow. It
is imperative with ALL lasers that patients avoid
ANY sun exposure, tanning beds, and fake tanning
products for at least 4 weeks prior to treatment.
A cool gel is spread over the treatment area,
the headpiece is then applied to the skin and
pulses of light a released, you may feel a
slight sting, similar to the flick of a rubber
band against your skin. It is certainly not
unbearable, and we can always reduce the
intensity if you feel the need. Immediately
after some treatments you may feel a mild heat
for a couple of hours, but after most treatments
you will feel next to nothing at all. You will
experience a darkening of any pigment for a
period of 5-7 days, (2-3 weeks on body areas) It
will look like a darker flaking of the skin.
This can easily be covered with makeup until your
skin naturally exfoliates it off. It is important
not to scratch, pick, or ablate these areas of
lifting pigment. Once the light is absorbed into
any vascular lesions and they are broken down,
the body recognizes them as waste and removes
them out through your lymphatic system naturally.

The Fantastic feature of IPL is its diversity,
with it we can Remove Pigment, sun damage and
age spots Reduce symptoms of Rosacea Treat
flushing and small red vessels Improve
texture on tone of the skin Incredible
Rejuvenation of the skin Help plump fine lines
and wrinkles. IPL can be used on all areas of the
face and body. We can treat just one small age
spot on the face, to sun damaged hands, to just
youre flushing cheeks. Incredible results are
seen when treating sun damage on the décolletage,
as IPL will remove redness, pigment and plump any
creepy skin commonly seen on this area. Treatment
times will vary to areas being treated, a small
area typically taking only 10 minutes. Usually
2-6 treatments are required (condition being
treated pending), As we remove layers/ colors of
pigment and redness, you will be assessed each
follow up on progress and stages of your
treatments. This helps us best adjust your
treatment settings for a smooth, even, complete
treatment series. Sun exposure will allow pigment
to reoccur after treatment, We Love Dermaquest
3D sun cream, it containing peptides and algaes
to aid skin health/ageing and tint for a light
comfortable coverage. Ultra Brightening serum
should be included in your skin care regime to
help prevent future pigment and blend /fade any
lighter pigment untreatable by IPL.
Ageing Our skin gradually loses its firm,
youthful look. Aging, cumulative sun exposure,
hormones or weight fluctuation are all factors
which affect the strength and elasticity of the
collagen fibres in our skin. This decrease in
quantity and function of the collagen causes the
wrinkles, laxity and sagging of the skin.

ENDYMED SKIN CONTOURING AND TIGHTENING There is
increasing demand from patients for non-invasive
and no downtime wrinkle treatment, or patients
contraindicated or unopposed to Botox/fillers,
preferring a more natural alternative look and
approach to anti-aging treatments. Endymed is
increasingly proving itself to be the answer! The
delivery of heat deep into the skin creates an
immediate stimulation of new collagen growth. The
heat penetration achieved by EndyMeds 3DEEP RF
technology reaches into these deep layers to
provide this effective collagen tightening and
remodelling. A gel is applied to the skin to
help the advanced 3D handpiece glide easily over
the skin and conduct the Radio Frequency energy
into the skin. During the procedure, the deep
skin layers are gradually heated, while the skin
surface remains around 40C. As new healthier
collagen is formed, tighter, more natural looking
and firmer skin will be produced.
Benefits Facts Endymed is amazing on necks,
jowls and cheeks and around the eyes. The beauty
of Endymed is its simple no pain approach, and
can be done ANYWHERE the skin needs tightening,
toning and firming. Depending on the size of the
treatment area, treatment may take between 15-45
minutes. Six intervals of one to two weeks are
necessary. You should start to see improvement in
your skin following the third to fourth
treatment and additional improvement will
gradually appear as the treatment course
progresses. The gradual improvement in your skin
will continue even after completion of the
treatment series. We find greatest results are
seen twelve weeks from initial treatment

DERMAL FILLERS DESCRIPTION Dermal Fillers are
forms of hyaluronic acid which bind strongly
with water causing lifting, fullness and a new
firmness to lines, furrows and facial
features. Tiny amounts of filler are injected
into the upper most layers of the skin to smooth
and fill skin contours. We use a local
anaesthetic cream prior to your treatment to
numb any stinging sensations. However many of our
products contain local anaesthetic. Making
treatment very comfortable.
Side Effects Temporary redness, swelling or
bruising may occur, this lasts up to 2
weeks. Temporary lumpiness may occur. Lines may
still be visible after treatment, in order to
