Here are some game-changing beauty upgrades to give yourself a spruce-up (short of cosmetic surgery). Important reminder: Always do your research thoroughly and get an expert’s advice before taking any treatment!

• Cool Sculpting and VelaShape
  Both Cool Sculpting and VelaShape are body contouring and cellulite treatments that use a combination of technologies to trim and smooth out the skin. Cool sculpting is a non-surgical fat-freezing technology that is proven to reduce stubborn fat in trouble spots such as the double chin, flank, and lower abdomen. VelaShape gets rid of cellulite and circumferential mass around the neck, arms, love handles, abdomen, thighs, and buttocks.

BEST FOR: Cellulite and extra fat layer.

• HydraFacial
  This is the facial upgrade that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts impurities, and then infuses the skin with intensive serums. Instead of poking and pinching the skin with the blackhead tweezer, a pore vacuum is gently glided over the skin to dislodge debris and nourish the skin with intense moisturizers. Suitable for almost all skin types, the hydrafacial is popular during the winter season in the Kingdom when dry skin is the norm.

BEST FOR: Acne, oily and congested skin, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, scars, improving texture and firmness of the skin.

• Carbon Laser Peel
  The carbon peel has proved to be a revolutionary laser treatment that is completely pain-free. A layer of liquid carbon is applied to the skin, where it penetrates deep into the pores and is then exposed to laser in this treatment.

BEST FOR: Dark pigments, oily and acne-occluded skin, blackheads, and dull skin.
TIP: To maintain the outcomes, limit sun exposure.

• Ultherapy
  This procedure lifts, tightens and rejuvenates the skin without surgery or downtime. The ultrasound energy harnesses heat produced by precisely targeted sonic waves to jumpstart the regenerative process that produces fresh, new collagen. It promises to activate the skin’s deadbeat collagen and put it on high-speed rewind.

BEST FOR: Lines and wrinkles on the brow, neck, chin, and décolletage.

• Fractional Laser
  This fractional skin resurfacing treatment targets troubled skin with microscopic laser columns that penetrate deep into your skin to boost the remodeling of collagen along with resurfacing the entire skin tone. The procedure takes some time to heal and has a downtime of typically a week to 15 days of the skin’s recovery.

BEST FOR: Scars, age spots, sun spots, pigmentation, wrinkles, etc.
