Dermal fillers are injections of a gel made out of hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance in your skin. At Palm Clinic we use Juvederm dermal filler, which contains an anaesthetic that increases your comfort levels during the injection process.
Undergoing liposuction can work wonders for one’s appearance, body contour, and even self-esteem. However, most people have a common misconception that once you undergo the procedure, nothing is required on your part to maintain and keep your liposuction results. On the contrary, you must adopt certain lifestyle choices to ensure your liposuction results are maintained.
As 2019 kicks into high gear, we’re focusing on preserving the health and youth of skin through good cosmeceutical skincare. If you’re familiar with beauty therapy in Auckland, you’ve likely heard the term “cosmeceuticals” tossed around. They’ve been around since the 80s, but cosmetic skincare products with pharmaceutical benefits are rapidly gaining popularity among Auckland skin clinics.
But what do you know about your cosmeceutical skincare product? Cosmeceuticals are not regulated as thoroughly as other medical products and thus are not required to back up their medicinal claims with rigorous testing. So, is your cosmeceutical skincare product delivering the goods? Read on to learn why good cosmeceutical skincare is so important.

Varicose veins and spider veins may seem like interchangeable terms for the same thing, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Here’s the low-down on the causes, symptoms and treatments for both varicose veins and spider veins. Spider veins are the less serious of the two and are seen as small discoloured veins that have a spider-web like appearance typically on the legs. These veins rarely cause problems with pain and can be left untreated. In contrast, varicose veins occur due to faulty values in veins of the legs. Blood is able to therefore flow in the wrong direction causing bulging veins, which appear blue and purple. These veins can cause problems of pain, numbness in the legs and in some cases, leg ulcers.
Scars can be detrimental to confidence at any age. However, help is at hand in the form of laser and dermal techniques. Palm Clinic has Fraxel Laser Dual, which means we have two different Fraxel laser types, which treat different conditions, at different depths and intensities. The Fraxel Dual includes both the Fraxel Restore and Fraxel Refine.
As a Registered nurse responsible initially for working as a theatre nurse and laser nurse specialist, I have branched out and learned the role of quality improvement. This role has snowballed from completing the occasional audit and data entry for Dr Barrett some 7-8 years ago, to completing the first full accreditation process in 2011.
After working in advertising for nearly twenty years I decided to make a change by packing in a highly successful career and going back to University. After studying a few podiatry papers I realised a more “hands-on” approach with people was for me and sought to find a career with more of a feel-good factor. This led me into holistic therapies and after studying for another two years I started working as a beauty therapist in a Spa environment.
Dermal fillers are a brilliant tool in the world of appearance medicine. These gel-like substances are injected into the skin to defy lines, soften folds and balance any asymmetries in the face. At Palm Clinic, we have a range of dermal fillers available; our most popular being Juvederm. Both are non-animal hyaluron fillers made up of the same hyaluronic acid that naturally occurs in our skin. These are the safest forms of dermal fillers and an ideal choice for skin rejuvenation.
