They are also beneficial in combating acne, enlarged pores, mild scarring, dull complexion and hyperpigmentation. At Aura Cosmetique, we follow a safe and sterile procedure that extends to the aftercare, making the chemical peeling an experience that leaves your skin truly beaming!
Botox and Fillers are minimally invasive cosmetic procedures that offer a facelift and scale down the ageing process. Botox, a protein made from Botulinum toxin, temporarily paralyzes muscles and prevents the occurrence of fine lines and wrinkles. Fret not, Botox is usually safe and offers efficient results if used correctly. Dermal fillers are injections that are usually inoculated in the areas around your eyes, mouth and nose to restore volume to make them appear fuller. These are popular means to rejuvenate facial skin and enhance the appearance of its features.

This is where Aura Cosmetique comes into the picture to give you a chance to remove the mistakes of the past and begin with a clean skin canvas.

In such cases, skin tag/mole removal can be considered to remove these from the skin. Aura Cosmetique has expert dermatologists who can remove skin tags/moles in a safe way and help your self-conscious self feel free from blemishes.
Acne is a common condition that affects about 80% of those between the ages of 11 and 30. It occurs when the skin pores are clogged and manifest as outbreaks on the face, back, chest, and shoulders. Acne is distressing both when it is present and when it goes away because it may leave acne scars. This leads to the skin looking uneven and unappealing. With Aura Cosmetique, put an end to your acne woes with our treatments like chemical peeling, microneedling, dermabrasion and laser treatment. We help in determining the best method to reduce the appearance of your scars and also make sure that the acne scars fade away, just like the uncertainties that pop up with acne scars.
Laser hair removal is a noninvasive procedure to remove unwanted body hair in areas like the face, underarms, bikini area, back and legs. Laser removes hair by vaporizing it, making it a safe and effective hair removal procedure. The results of laser hair reduction are instant and one can expect a 10% to 25% reduction in hair after the first treatment itself.

Laser hair reduction is safe only when it is performed by an experienced healthcare provider and in Aura Cosmetique, the procedure is carried out by professionals under expert supervision.

Pico Toning is a treatment that helps reduce skin discolourations and restore your skin from any damage. It is a short and fast targeting procedure that reduces damage to surrounding areas, selectively destroying only melanin. What makes pico toning different from other laser treatments are the ultra-short pulses that do not cause heating of the epidermal layers around the target zone. Avail this treatment at Aura Cosmetique and correct sun spots, acne scars and other uneven skin pigmentation on the skin.
Medi-facials are medical-grade facials that contain vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that improve skin tone, texture and collagen production, thereby, slowing down ageing.

At Aura Cosmetique, Medi-facials are performed under the supervision of well-trained doctors who devise treatments to increase skin’s natural cellular turnover showing a youthful, moisturized and glowing improvement.
HydraFacial, also called Hydradermabrasion, is a procedure to remove dead skin cells from the surface of your face with an exfoliating tip paired with hydrating serums. HydraFacial is more effective as penetrates 10 times deeper than a topical facial, offering a visible skin refinement and an even, radiant skin tone.

It is an effective alternative to various surgical procedures, such as an upper/lower eyelid correction, eyebrow lift or neck lift.

As it involves the use of specialized equipment, PLEXR should be performed by experienced medical professionals at specialized hospitals like Aura Cosmetique.
Comedone extraction is a dermatological procedure aimed at removing comedones, which are non-inflammatory skin lesions commonly known as blackheads and whiteheads.

Thread lifting is a cosmetic procedure designed to lift and tighten sagging skin on the face and neck. It is a non-surgical alternative to traditional facelift surgery and is sometimes referred to as a “non-surgical facelift” or “lunchtime facelift.” However, the results may not be as dramatic or long-lasting as those achieved through surgery. The longevity of the effects can vary depending on factors such as the type of threads used, the individual’s skin condition, and lifestyle factors.
Fat grafting, also known as fat transfer or fat injection, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that involves harvesting fat from one part of the body and injecting it into another area to enhance volume and contour.

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the use of a device containing fine needles. These needles create small, controlled punctures (micro-injuries) on the skin’s surface to stimulate the body’s natural wound-healing process, leading to the production of collagen and elastin—two proteins essential for maintaining the skin’s firmness and elasticity. Microneedling is commonly used to address various skin concerns like fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, stretch marks and uneven skin tone.

Both cysts and lipomas are usually benign (non-cancerous) growths, but they may be removed for various reasons, including cosmetic concerns, discomfort, or if they become infected.

Face sculpting is a cosmetic surgery procedure aimed at altering the structure of the face for aesthetic purposes. Face sculpting techniques can vary widely but generally involve approaches like Dermal Fillers, Botulinum Toxin (Botox), Kybella and Ultherapy. Face sculpting treatments are typically less invasive and have shorter recovery times compared to surgical options like facelifts, making them popular choices for individuals seeking facial rejuvenation with minimal downtime. The choice of specific face sculpting procedures depends on the individual’s goals, their current facial anatomy, and the expertise of the dermatologist which are the parameters that are always taken into consideration at Aura Cosmetique.
Cryolipolysis or CoolSculpting is a non-surgical treatment for reducing fat in localized areas which are not reduced with exercises. This process is carried out by freezing the fat cells to minus 11 degrees to minus 13 degrees which makes the cells non-viable, which slowly fades away. The idea behind cryolipolysis is based on the observation that fat cells are more sensitive to cold than surrounding tissues. As with any cosmetic procedure, individuals considering CoolSculpting should consult with a qualified healthcare professional to ensure it is a suitable option for their specific needs and health status.
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound, or HIFU, is a cosmetic procedure that provides a non-surgical facelift alternative. This process works by stimulating collagen production, which is crucial for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. In HIFU, ultrasound energy penetrates deep into the skin, targeting specific layers to kickstart the body’s natural regenerative processes. The best part of HIFU is that it offers non-invasive, yet highly effective skin rejuvenation. Aura Cosmetique offers a personalized consultation to understand the client’s goals and customize the HIFU treatment accordingly.
Warm Sculpting, also known as laser lipolysis, is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure designed to get rid of stubborn fat cells and enhance body contours.

Warm Sculpting is a revolutionary treatment that delivers natural-looking results that can last longer with proper maintenance. Contact Aura Cosmetique for a personalized consultation and take the first step towards a more sculpted body.

Before considering any skincare treatment related to fat reduction, it’s advisable to consult with a qualified dermatologist at Aura Cosmetique to discuss your goals, expectations, and potential risks.
