State of the art waxing
Australian Body Care™ tea tree oil crème wax is used for all our body waxing. The wax is heated and used on a spatula and spread thinly over the area to be treated following the direction of the hair growth. Then a waxing strip is applied over the waxing area, then removed by pulling it sharply against the direction of the hair growth.
Australian Body Care™ hand and body lotion used immediately after waxing soothes away any discomfort. This lotion also removes the "chicken skin" appearance and redness much quicker, it is the most hygienic way to treat skin after waxing, as it kills bacteria throughout the day. We feel the client is receiving the best service possible.
Ellipse Light: the ultimate solution to the hair problem
Want to be rid of unwanted hair?
The Ellipse Light is not a Laser. It is a second-generation intense pulsed light system, using broad - spectrum visible light. Our clinically proven implementation of the intense pulsed light technology is unique.
How does the system work when removing hair?
The energy from the light source is absorbed by the target chromophore (melanin) in the hair. Hair removal is accomplished by absorption of the light energy in the melanin in the hair, which is then transferred to the hair follicle.
Are you suitable for this treatment?
Black hairs are most easily treated due to the large concentration of melanin in these hairs, which gives an optimal absorption and conversion of light energy to heat. Fair hair has less melanin and consequently less heat is produced with less certainty of permanent destruction of the hair follicles. Grey (white hair has no melanin and cannot be efficiently treated. The upper skin layer, the epidermis, also contains melanin and the concentration increases when the skin is exposed to UV-light. It is therefore necessary to treat dark-skinned and tanned individuals with less energy to avoid generation of heat (pain and/or burns). The ideal patient is fair skinned with dark hairs but the hair but the Ellipse Light system computer has pre-programmed treatment suggestions for different hair - and pigment types.
