Cyspera Intensive Cream System

Cyspera Intensive cream for pigmentation and Melasma treatment

Cyspera Intensive Cream System

Cyspera® is a biological depigmenting cream for treating melasma and hyperpigmentation concerns.

The active ingredient is cysteamine is naturally present in human skin cells. It regulates melanin synthesis in the skin and is a highly effective topical treatment for pigmentation. The new formulation of Cyspera Intensive contains 7% Cysteamine.

Hyperpigmentation and Melasma are common skin conditions in which some areas of the skin become darker than the surrounding skin. Pigmentation occurs when an excess of melanin is produced by melanocytes, the pigment cells, which are moved up to the skin’s surface. Hyperpigmentation can be caused by inflammation, hormonal stress, sun damage, or other skin injuries.

Cyspera® is a biological molecule that reduces melanin pigments in human skin. It helps remove brown spots, treats pigmented marks and produces an even and light skin complexion.

  • Significant depigmenting effectiveness.
  • Highly biocompatible and well-tolerated.
  • Non-cytotoxic, non-mutagenic, non-carcinogenic
  • Superior benefit/risk ratio compared to hydroquinone –and all other alternatives.

Research shows:

  • It is as effective as Triluma®
  • Faster onset of action compared to original cyspera

The new Cyspera Intensive Cream is safe for long-term use compared to hydroquinone-based treatment and is without the concerns of Corticosteroid, Retinoic-Acid and Hydroquinone.

What is Good about Cyspera Intensive?

Cyspera intensive is our favourite cream treatment for melasma and hyperpigmentation.

  • Suitable for darker skin tones that are more prone to hyperpigmentation
  • Less likely cause skin sensitive to the sun

pHformula Skin Care

pHformula

pHformula is a skin resurfacing system with actions between a cosmeceutical and a medical prescription treatment.

Skin Resurfacing and Peels stimulate the production of collagen and new skin cells to deliver fresher, healthier-looking skin.

What is different about pHformula?

pHformula has taken skin resurfacing even further and has a unique mechanism of action based on over three decades of combined scientific, medical and skin health knowledge and experience.

A conventional peel uses high concentrations of acids which cause tissue damage, inflammation, and plenty of peeling.

Ph formula delivers skin resurfacing treatments while preserving the integrity of your skin’s epidermis. There is, therefore, no downtime, no peeling and no impact on social interactions.

This is due to Ph formula’s unique delivery complex, which provides controlled chemical resurfacing without excessive skin irritation. It’s like having a peel without peeling!

The pH formula philosophy is all about the ‘outside in’ and ‘inside out’ approach. 

View this video comparing skin resurfacing to peeling

What skin type is pHformula suitable for?

pHformula is suitable for all skin types!

The resurfacing systems target the needs of your skin type:

  • anti-ageing
  • hyperpigmentation
  • chronic redness
  • acne 

Different treatments can be combined to create a bespoke program with controlled strength and depth depending on your skin’s sensitivity levels.

Whether you already have good skin or a specific skin concern with pHformula, we can tailor a regime for you in terms of in-clinic treatments and skin care products for daily use at home.

Emepelle

 

What is Emepelle?

The Emepelle is a skin regime:

A serum for use in the morning

A rich cream for use at night

They contain a host of active ingredients, including retinol, antioxidants and hyaluronic acid, but what makes Emepelle totally different to even the best traditional anti-ageing creams is that it also contains MEP Technology®.

MEP Technology is a new kind of ingredient that rejuvenates menopausal skin. It encourages the skin to behave as if the oestrogen were still there. MEP doesn’t add oestrogen to the body. Instead, it helps key skin cells work the way they did before menopause when they were being stimulated by oestrogen. This process helps restore lost collagen and vitality. Resulting in younger-looking skin that’s hydrated, brighter and firmer.

As you approach and go through menopause, oestrogen levels decline, causing accelerated collagen loss and skin ageing, leading to dehydration, dryness, sagging, dullness and more wrinkles. That’s why so many women see their appearance change rapidly during menopause.

By acting on the oestrogen receptors, both the cream and the serum have an additional function not seen in other skin regimes.

Why consider trying Emepelle?

Consider it if you have seen a change in your skin texture and hydration due to perimenopause / menopause.

It can also help if you are post-menopausal and would like to try a different technology to stimulate skin firmness and hydration.

Here at Cheshire Lasers, Emepelle is one of our top treatments for rejuvenating peri and postmenopausal skin.  We have seen with our own eyes in some clients results comparable to some of our injectable skin booster treatments.

If you have low in estrogen and your skin has lost its hydration and elasticity, consider Emepelle. After a few months of treatment, skin often looks more hydrated, plumper and less dull. ( although results do vary from person to person)

For best results, we recommend the serum in the morning and the cream at night. You may, however, prefer to try one of the products first, depending on your skin type and sensitivity.

Before starting the Empelle regime, we recommend a consultation, and we can discuss how each product works and how they would suit your skincare needs.

We can do this over the phone free of charge.

Alternatively, book a face to Face assessment which is £25. We can give you samples to try to make sure they suit your skin. Should you then make a skincare purchase, the £25 will be deducted.

Scientific Evidence:

Zoe Draelos, MD, performed a Double-Blind Randomized Pilot Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Topical MEP in the Facial Appearance Improvement of Estrogen Deficient Females after 14 weeks of MEP.
The results:

  • +54% increase in hydration
  • +39% increase in luminosity
  • +19% increase in firmness

Skinade

What is Skinade?

Skinade is a drink. It works from the inside out to rebuild and strengthen the collagen matrix below the skin’s surface. It also boosts natural levels of hydration and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Developed by leading UK scientists and manufactured in the UK, its patent-pending formulation contains high-grade collagen and essential micronutrients.

It contains high-grade collagen sourced from freshwater fish, which is low in sodium and avoids mercury contamination. It is a precious ingredient and 7000mgis included in each bottle.

Skinade contains only the highest quality ingredients with no artificial flavours or colouring and fewer than 35 calories. With natural flavours of peach and mangosteen, it offers a pleasant tasting and convenient addition to your daily skincare regime.

Drinking Skinade on a daily basis results in firmer, more even-toned, hydrated, radiant, youthful and healthier-looking skin. It reduces fine lines and wrinkles and repairs connective tissue. So you’ll also benefit from stronger, healthier and faster-growing hair and nails.

How does Skinade work?

Traditional anti-ageing products only function on the surface of the skin, skinade works from the inside out. The advanced formulation of low molecular weight collagen and essential micro-nutrients work synergistically to nourish your skin and promote a more youthful, glowing and radiant complexion. Hydrolyzed collagen helps the body form new collagen structures. It provides the amino acid building blocks and also stimulates the production of new collagen, elastin and moisture-retaining hyaluronic acid molecules.

Why is Skinade in a drink?

If you were to try to take Skinade’s ingredients in tablet form, you would need to swallow around twenty large tablets daily. Not only is this difficult, but the body also finds them tough to digest. The valuable nutrients would pass through your system unused instead of being absorbed by the body.

skinade middlewich cheshire

What are the benefits of Skinade?

After completing a Skinade course, many consumers have reported the following results:

  • Improved skin hydration and radiance
  • Reduced appearance of lines and wrinkles
  • Increased skin suppleness
  • Healthier looking hair and nails

Individual results will vary but, with continued daily use, your skin will continue to improve.

For best anti–ageing results we suggest a 90-day course.

 

skinade middlewich cheshire

 

Skinade contains the following high-quality ingredients:


Hydrolysed high-grade Marine collagen 
Sourced from fresh-water fish, low in sodium and avoiding mercury contamination. 7000mg in each bottle.

Vitamin C 
Essential for natural collagen formation and maintaining the collagen matrix. It also provides vital protection for the skin by boosting the immune system and reducing free-radical damage. It contains 450% of our recommended daily allowance of Vitamin C as calcium ascorbate without which fibroblasts proliferation cannot occur.

MSM

MSM is a naturally occurring form of organic sulphur found in all living organisms. It helps collagen and keratin formation, improves skin elasticity and inhibits cross-linking of collagen cells, a major cause of skin ageing.

Vitamin B complex

Riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3) and biotin contribute to the maintenance of normal skin health. Vitamin B2 also contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Folic acid and vitamin B12 play a role in the process of cell division. The vitamin-B complex promotes more uniform, clearer, glowing and radiant skin.

Omegas 3 & 6 
Sourced exclusively from organic flaxseed oil that plays an important role in balancing dry and oily skin.

L-lysine

An essential amino acid that is key to rebuilding the collagen matrix at a cellular level.

How do I use Skinade?

Drink one bottle of Skinade a day.

You will soon discover that taking a 360° approach to your skincare will leave your skin feeling smoother, firmer and stronger.

You can buy Skinade in a bottle or in a convenient 15ml sachet. So now you can fly with skinade.

How to Improve Eye Wrinkles with Creams

Many serums and creams designed for the eye area can treat and or prevent eye wrinkles.

The ingredients to look out for are:

  • Retinol.
  • Antioxidants
  • Patented peptides.
  • AHAs
  • Hyaluronic acid / B5 serum

Retinol

Retinol helps prevent fine lines as well as smoothing the ones you’ve got. By stimulating your collagen and new cell turnover, it reduces collagen breakdown and stimulates the cells to work faster to create fresh, bright, non-wrinkled skin.
It takes a few months of consistent regular use to see any impact on your lines. You will probably experience some redness, dryness, and flakiness within the first month or two of use.
To help reduce the side effects, you can start off slowly and use a retinol one night a week for one week, twice a week for two weeks, three times a week for three weeks, and then every other day until you can tolerate it and also get results. Then you need to continue for, well, life !!

A gentle retinol will cause less reaction but fewer results; stronger retinols will give better results but more reaction. This can be annoying, but you must tough it out for anti-ageing results. Stronger retinols are only available from clinics like Cheshire Lasers. You will be advised how to use the product, and support is provided to help you achieve results.
Some people are very responsive to retinol, but others need high-strength products to achieve results.

Our favourite retinol eye products are:

ZO Skin Health Intense Eye Repair
ZO Skin Health Hydrafirm
Because of the strength of these products, we can not sell these online, and they are only available in the clinic and a consultation with one of our Aestheticians.

 

eye creams wrinkles

Antioxidants

Antioxidants control / prevent free-radicals. Free-radicals are the main reason for skin damage created by sun exposure, smoking, alcohol and other environmental factors. You can prevent free radical damage by consuming more antioxidants in your diet, usually found in fruits or vegetables deep in colour. Applying an antioxidant serum can also make a big difference.

Antioxidant products contain vitamin C, vitamin E and the new kid on the block Nicotinamide (vitamin B3) which is now considered to be one of the most potent antioxidants, possibly more effective than vitamin C.

Our favourite eye products containing antioxidants are:

Obagi ELASTIderm Eye Cream
NeoStrata Skin Active Intensive Eye Therapy
NeoStrata Restore Eye Cream
ZO Skin Health Hydrafirm
ZO Skin Health Intense Eye Repair
pHformula SOS eye rescue

Peptides

Peptides are found in many effective anti-aging skin care products. While there is no singular, miracle ingredient that will give you those instant, youthful results we all wish for, peptides are an extremely important ingredient to look for in your wrinkle fighting creams, serums, and under eye products.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. Amino acids are small allowing them to penetrate the outer layer of our skin and send signals to our cells to stimulate them to function.

Our favourite eye products containing peptides are

NeoStrata Skin Active Intensive Eye Therapy
pHformula SOS eye rescue
Obagi Elastiderm
ZO Skin Health Hydrafirm
ZO Skin Health Intense Eye Repair

AHAs

AHAs are alpha hydroxy acids, sometimes referred to as fruit acids. They can also be derived from nuts and milk:
They include:
glycolic acid, derived from sugar cane
lactic acid, derived from milk
mandelic acid, derived from bitter almonds
citric acid, naturally found in citrus fruit but derived from many fruit and vegetables
tartaric acid, derived from grapes
malic acid, derived from apples and pears

AHAs work by exfoliating the top layer of skin, allowing newer, healthier skin cells to show through. They are particularly useful in dry skin and may help to diminish the appearance of wrinkles.
Studies have shown that AHAs may also stimulate collagen production and reduce the changes caused by the sun damaging the skin.

Newer, more exciting products are PHAs. They are similar to AHA’s in that they perform the same role of exfoliation, but unlike AHA’s, PHA’s are gentler on the skin, causing less irritation so common to many alpha hydroxy acids. A great product to use under the eye.
Gluconolactone is a powerful antioxidant and is the multi-tasker of all Polyhydroxy Acids.

Our favourite eye products containing AHA’s PHA’s are:

NeoStrata Eye Cream
NeoStrata Skin Active Intensive Eye Therapy
Obagi ELASTIderm Eye Cream

Hyaluronic acid / B5

Hyaluronic acid / B5 serums are a great way to reduce fine lines under the eyes. The particles act like a sponge pulling in water from the air to plump, hydrate and smooth your skin. They are lightweight, ultra-hydrating and work immediately with no irritation. The results are temporary, and the product needs to be used daily to maintain the effect.

Our favourite hyaluronic acid b5 serum is :
Medik8 Hydr8 B5 Serum
It may not be an eye product, but it is great for rehydrating the skin under the eye area.

Our favourite hyaluronic acid b5 serum eye product is :
NeoStrata Eye Cream

Obagi Nu-Derm

The Obagi Nu-Derm System is a prescription-only skincare system which accelerates skin cell turnover. The system penetrates deep to improve pigmentation and damage in all layers of the skin.

Dr Teri Johnson provides the consultations for the Obagi Nu-derm System at Cheshire Lasers as the tretamnet has to be prescribed. She can advise you which regime would suit you best and also give you advice and support throughout the treatment.

The Obagi Nu-Derm System optimises skin functions at the cellular level to help it look and act younger and healthier. The active ingredients trigger a cascade of actions that:

  • Promotes new skin cells on the surface, resulting in smoother skin and reduced lines and wrinkles
  • Reduces uneven pigmentation found in freckles, melasma and age spots and prevents the formation of new pigmentation
  • Promotes uniform distribution of cells at the deep layers improving skin structure and evening tone
  • Boosts collagen and elastin production for firmer and resilient skin with fewer lines and wrinkles
  • Improves circulation and nutrient supply for natural hydration and healthy glowing skin

The Nu-Derm system includes:

  • Obagi Gentle Cleanser – a soap-free cleanser for all skin types, especially sensitive and dry skin or Obagi Foaming Gel Cleanser – for oily to normal skin types, thoroughly cleans away impurities and make-up.
  • Obagi Toner – uses a natural astringent that regulates the skin’s PH in order to make it more open to hydroquinone penetration.
  • Obagi Clear – its main active ingredient is 4% hydroquinone; it blocks the production of melanin, thus reducing hyperpigmentation problems caused by excessive peeling.
  • Obagi Exfoderm – its main active ingredient is a mild acid called phytic acid – it makes normal to dry skin peel even further or Obagi Exfoderm Forte – another exfoliating product based on AHA’s – glycolic and lactic acids; it’s designed to increase penetration of hydroquinone in normal to oily skin.
  • Obagi Blender – the product has 4% hydroquinone and is mixed with a tretinoin-based cream.
  • Obagi Hydrate
  • Obagi SunShield protects against UVA rays linked to deep, premature ageing as well as UVB responsible for burning.

How do I use the Nu-Derm system?

  • Prepare the skin by cleansing and toning:

Cleansing and toning makes your skin more receptive to the correction process.

What happens during the Obagi Nu-Derm Treatment?

You can expect to experience four phases as you transform into a healthier, younger-looking appearance. The length of time between the phases will vary based on age, skin type, amount of damage and compliance.

Initial phase

the damaged top layer of skin is replaced by a new layer of fresh, healthy skin cells. This process takes approximately 6 weeks.

During this phase, you can expect to experience one or more of these symptoms:

  • freckles, age spots and dark patches begin fading
  • exfoliation and flaking
  • redness and dryness
  • wrinkles and acne may look worse temporarily

These reactions are indications that the treatment is working. It is absolutely necessary to stay with the program to see these results.

Stimulation Phase

6 to 12 weeks. You begin to notice significant improvements in your skin. New skin cells continue reaching the surface and the production of collagen and elastin increases. Expect to notice:

  • wrinkles begin to reduce
  • tightening of pores
  • further lightening of freckles, age spots and dark patches
  • subsiding redness and flaking

Healthy Glow

12 to 18 weeks. In this phase, your friends will begin to notice your skin. Your skin will look and act younger and healthier. Your skin is:

  • firmer and more resilient
  • more even colour and tone
  • smooth and naturally hydrated

Will I Need Maintenance after the Obagi Treatment?

To keep your skin looking and acting younger and healthier, you will want to continue to use the Obagi Nu-Derm System to maintain the improved results you have achieved. By continuing with a maintenance protocol, you can expect to:

  • Maintain healthier, younger looking skin for a lifetime
  • Prevent future damage
  • Improve anti-ageing effects

Who created ZO Skin Health?

Nearly three decades ago, Dr Zein Obagi a leading dermatologist, redefined skincare to include the concept of creating and maintaining healthy skin instead of only treating skin disease. This new philosophy led to the development of some of the most widely recognized skincare products and solutions recommended by physicians. Dr Obagi has redefined the concept of skin health to include comprehensive solutions that bridge the gap between therapeutics and maintaining truly healthy skin.

In 2007, under the guidance of Dr Obagi, ZO Skin Health, Inc. introduced innovative results-oriented skin health solutions to treat everyone seeking healthier skin on a daily basis.

ZO Skin Health Products Target Every Patient. Every Age. Every Stage.

ZO Skin Health provides results-oriented therapies tailored to meet your specific needs. Delivering clinically proven results, these solutions maintain healthy skin that is strong, smooth and firm, evenly toned, and fully hydrated.

ZO Skin Health Skincare by Dr Zein Obagi is a prescription-strength, dispensed topical skincare system only available after a consultation with a ZO-trained health care professional. The products provide general improvements to skin health and appearance. The products have been thoroughly researched and clinically tested with fantastic results. ZO’s results-orientated therapies are tailored to suit your skin’s specific needs and are designed for you to apply at home. Everyone’s skin is different and that’s why ZO skin products are only available from an authorised clinic after a consultation.

ZO have created two ranges. The ‘Medical’ range treats disorders and more difficult skin conditions, whilst ‘Skin Health’ provides environmental protection and everyday skin health support.
