Meta-therapy is a targeted micro-needle treatment using subjectable serums based on your skin type and requirements. Micro perforations in the skin start a natural repair mechanism whilst active ingredients in the serums address skin issues such as ageing.
During this treatment your skin is prepped using cleanser & toner form the Dermatude range. An Enzyme peel is applied to remove dead skin cells prior to skin needling. A subjectable is chosen for you after a thorough consultation and skin analysis. The subjectable is forced into the skin using a micro needle pen which is specially designed to reach the specific layer in the skin where collagen and elastin carrying fibroblast cells will gather to plum up the skin and create a youthful appearance. The active ingredients in the serum will address your skins issues. Subjectable’s are available in Hydrating, Lifting & Firming, Cell Renewal and Balancing. A soothing and deeply moisturising sheet mask is applied.

Plasma Fibroblast from £190
Plasma Fibroblast is a treatment which utilises the skins natural healing process to delivery controlled healing in an area of loose crepy skin. This controlled healing results in a firmer, tightened area of skin. We can also use plasma to remove small skin tags.
A thorough in salon consultation is required prior to treatment. This is to provide information regarding the treatment, suitability , expectations and information in regard to healing. Photographs will be taken before and after the treatment.
The plasma service begins with an anaesthetic cream being applied to clean, prepped skin which begins the numbing process. During this time we run through all the consultation and medical forms including aftercare before beginning the treatment. Once the numbing cream has taken affect the therapist will use a plasma pen to direct a plasma arc to the surface of the skin. The area it touches contracts and creates a small brown dot which is referred to as a carbon crust. This process is called sublimation. Your therapist will move quickly covering the area to be treated using a controlled method of application and avoiding as much discomfort as possible.
Our treatments always include an aftercare bundle at no extra cost. This is to insure the correct healing takes place post treatment. You will be asked for daily selfies for first 7 days of your plasma journey then invited back to the salon at 12 weeks to take after pics and conclude your Plasma Fibroblast treatment.
Plasma Fibroblast Benefits
- Breaks down proteins in the skin
- Encourages tissue regeneration
- Stimulates fibroblast activity
- Causes tissue contraction
- Non-surgical
- Improves skin texture
- Mild to moderate skin tightening
- Some degree of facial contouring
- Tightens and lifts wrinkles skin
This treatment does require care and attention post treatment. Areas will be red/pink and may be swollen for several days in particular the eye areas. After this the carbon crusts naturally shed after or around 7 days. The area must be kept clean therefore no make up can be work for 7 days during healing, activities should be kept to a minimum in the first few days and no physical activities should take place during the 1st week. It is also worth mentioning that the skin will continue to tighten and heal for 12 weeks and a 2nd sometimes a 3rd treatment is usually required.
