HOW DOES PDT WORK?
An agent called Levulan® Kerastick® (aminolevulinic acid HCI) for Topical Solution is used in combination with various lasers. ALA is a substance that occurs naturally in your body. It is selectively absorbed into acne producing glands as well as other abnormal skin tissue such as actinic keratoses (precancerous skin lesions) and makes those cells more sensitive to light. The laser light activates the active ingredients in Levulan. In the case of acne, the sebaceous glands which are responsible for producing acne are decreased.

WHAT HAPPENS DURING THE TREATMENT?
Your skin will first be cleansed using special solutions to remove oils. Levulan is then applied to your skin using a special applicator in which it is packaged. The solution remains on your skin for approximately one hour for the face. If the back or chest is treated your incubation time may vary from 3-5 hours. The Levulan is then activated by laser light using Blu-U.

WHAT SHOULD I BRING TO MY TREATMENT?
A book or something to help occupy your time since you will be incubating for at least one hour.
A hat, scarf or other covering for your face, especially on warm sunny days or if you live far from the office. Any immediate exposure to light will increase the reaction on your skin. Even though this is not particularly dangerous to the skin, it may increase your recovery time significantly.

THE NEXT 40 HOURS
You are restricted from exposure to sunlight for 40 hours following the treatment. We recommend that you go home immediately after treatment and remain indoors the remainder of the day and the entire next day until sundown. Extended exposure to the computer screen or other visible light is not recommended in the first 40 hours.

THE NEXT FEW DAYS
Peeling, redness and dryness may be experienced for up to one week after the treatment. The first three days are most affected. You will receive instruction for caring for your skin at the time of your procedure. You may apply make-up three days after the procedure in most cases.*

DMK’s unique pain free hair removal system is a great alternative to laser treatments, especially for those fine hairs that laser struggles to remove. It gently dissolves the hair whilst also working to reduce hair re-growth with continued use, anywhere on the face or body. Your skin will be hair free and velvety smooth! This treatment can also improve conditions like ingrown hairs, folliculitis and acne affected skin through its hair removing capabilities and bacteria killing properties.

For those who want to significantly and quickly revise signs of ageing, but do not want to commit to invasive surgery or treatments, Pro Alpha Peel is ideal. An aesthetic approach to skin restoration, this peel restores the skin back to optimal health, encouraging it to perform like it did when it was young. The strength of the formulation is tailored by your therapist to suit your skin colour, texture, sensitivity and condition. In just 10 days old damaged skin tightens, lifts and peels away to reveal younger-looking, smoother, optimally functioning skin. You can be 10 years younger in 10 days!
