2021 has been a year about putting the spotlight on our personal needs.
To taking care of our mental health to treating ourselves to a tweakment or two – it’s been about you. The cosmetic trend that is here to stay is the natural results look. People want to look great and glowing but without everyone else knowing why. We breakdown which of our treatments have been the most sought after in 2021 giving you that amazing natural look for face and body.
CoolSculpting
We know with the constant chop and changing of travel rules, means we don’t know for certain if we will get to be on that beach showing off our bodies. But Coolsculpting isn’t only for those moments. It’s for taking back your confidence to fit and feel good in your clothes, to feeling like you. We know how sometimes you can feel a little removed from your own body when you see pockets of stubborn fat you can’t get rid.
Coolsculpting is a non-invasive, fat freezing treatment that works for those tough areas. It freezes those fat cells, which shrink, die and your body naturally disposes them. So, you get a natural and not dramatic change over a 3–6-month period.

- Little to no downtime
- Over 7 million treatments worldwide
- Reduces fat cells by 20-25%
- Safe and FDA-approved
- Only fat cells are targeted

Ultherapy (skin tightening)
The truth with getting older is that we lose collagen, the essential protein that gives our skin strength and elasticity. So, we’re left to pick up the pieces of saggy skin. No need to despair any longer thanks to Ultherapy. With the use of micro-focused ultrasound with visualisation (MFU-V) energy, it can target deep layers of the skin to repair and stimulate collagen and elastin production. It practically reverses the signs of ageing! This gold standard treatment lifts and tightens skin, giving you flawless and rejuvenated skin.
Benefits:
- Boosts natural collagen and elastin production
- Tightens and firms skin texture
- Lifts and tightens saggy and droopy skin
- One treatment can give you results lasting a year
- Little to no downtime
- Non-invasive and non-surgical (no injections or scarring)
- Suitable for anyone (from age to skin type)
- Treatment times takes less than an hour
