Slow down ageing process
E
ye bags, puffiness, dark circles, tired eyes,
and wrinkles could soon be a thing of the past
thanks to a new treatment method that is now
available at the Farrell German Skin Care Centre.
The centre has now introduced a brand new
Infrared Eye Mask treatment that results in increased
blood circulation, metabolism, oxygen levels and
collagen that all contribute to slowing down the
aging process.
There is also a number of treatments to combat
conditions, including acne, wrinkles, pigmentation,
cellulite, fat reduction and stretch marks.
Other options include permanent hair removal,
skin rejuvenation and anti-aging procedures and
other preventive measures to keep the skin looking
and feeling young and vibrant.
The centre’s team of experts believes that skin
problems should be handled comprehensively
and chalk out steps that give the body a chance to
improve itself. In the past customers have been satisfied with the centre’s range of treatment methods.
These included the Fat-Away-Method, the AntiCellulite-Method, Microdermabrasion, the Intense
Pulsed Light (IPL) technique, Cavitation, Ultrasonic,
Radiofrequency, High Frequency, Mesotherapy,
Lymphatic Massage, and Iontopherese.
The safe and non-invasive Farrell Fat-AwayMethod brings about fat reduction and fat removal
using selective dissolution of fat cells whilst simultaneously protecting other tissues.
Fat cells will be cracked and removed leaving the
body shaped and tightened. The treatment doesn’t
affect normal working and living
and could result in fat reduction
of up to one size.
The specialists at the centre
believe that a comprehensive skin
check should precede the start of
any treatment regimen since problems vary from person to person.
Accordingly, specialists first
speak to clients and outline possible treatment methods before they
take the next step.
Customers can now take advantage of a new check-up upgrade
that gives them before and after
pictures using a Microscope camera that focuses on key areas.
The centre is located at flat 225
on the second floor of the Nasser
Pharmacy complex, near Al
Jazeera Supermarket, Zinj.
It is open from 9am to 5pm
from Saturdays to Mondays and
from 1pm to 9pm from Tuesdays
to Thursdays.
