Cosmetic & Therapeutic Botox

Botox injections are non-surgical neuromodulator injections. They help to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by temporarily blocking the nerves that allow muscles in the fact to contract. Dr Holewa uses Nuceiva, a gentle product that helps soften unwanted wrinkle lines while maintaining your natural expressions and appearance. In keeping with Naturopathic Principles, these minimally invasive, gentle injections are utilized in combination with optimal skin care, diet and lifestyle recommendations.

In addition to Botox for cosmetics, it is also approved and highly beneficial in the treatment and prevention of migraine, headaches, TMJ (temporal-mandibular syndrome) and jaw clenching as well as excessive sweating (hyperhydrosis)!

Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture

Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture or Cosmetic Acupuncture has an interesting history that is well documented and respected, dating back to the Qin dynasty! At the time it was only available to the wealthiest individuals as it was designed to preserve the beauty and health of the Emperor and Empress and concubines and was an imperial ‘secret’.

By using small acupuncture needles this gentle, natural therapy is recommended for improving the radiance and natural beauty of your skin. It works by rebalancing Qi (the circulating life force according to Traditional Chinese Philosophy and Medicine) throughout your body, which in turn reflects through on the skin and in particular the face. The wonderful thing about this therapy is that is as painless and gentle as constitutional acupuncture.

This form of therapy is gaining in popularity and is one of the most sought after of all acupuncture treatment. Probably because of its efficacy in minimizing the appearance of fine lines of the face and diminishing the appearance of deeper wrinkles. It can also lift drooping eyelids and decrease the tendency toward sagging skin, reduce puffiness in the skin and bags under the eyes. At the same time, it can treat hormonal acne, tighten pores, reduce excess oiliness of the skin, improve facial colour, skin tone and hydration.

In one reported study patients received five acupuncture session over three weeks. More than half of the participants showed an improvement in skin elasticity, which helps skin look plump.

Skin Pen Micro-Needling

The SkinPen is a clinically proven skincare technique that is also referred to as “Collagen Induction Therapy”. The treatment has become increasingly popular in the medical aesthetics field and in plastic surgeons' offices for its ability to improve skin quality and appearance, as well as treat various skin conditions. 

Conditions that respond well to SkinPen include fine lines and wrinkles, melasma & sun damage, acne scars, surgical scars, stretch marks, vitiligo and many more

The SkinPen is like hitting the hard RESET button for your skin! Throughout the treatment the device utilizes tiny, sterile surgical grade needles to deliver thousands of micro punctures to the surface of the skin. This process stimulates a healing cycle which allows for the breakdown and clean up of old cells and the recruitment of fresh collagen and elastin. The HEALTHY, new tissue that is formed and laid as a result of this process leaves skin with overall improved quality, appearance and feel.
