AHA & BHA are both types of hydroxy acids found in cleansers, toners, moisturisers, scrubs, masks and peels.

AHAs are water soluble made from sugary fruits:

Glycolic Acid derives from sugar cane
Mandelic Acid derives from bitter almonds
Lactic Acid derives from lactose in milk
Citric Acid derives from citrus fruits

BHA are oil soluble:

Salicylic Acid derives from the bark of willow trees & in many plant species.

Dr Preema’s Facials incorporate the benefits of a peel with the luxury experience of a facial:

The HydraFacial^® incorporates glycolic, beta, lactic & salicylic acids with hyaluronic acid

HydraFacial^® is a device that uses a patented vortex technology which will deeply cleanse the skin and deliver potent botanical ingredients containing super-nutrients such as hyaluronic acid (HA), horse chestnut seed extract, red algae extract, copper, zinc and magnesium peptides as well as powerful antioxidants.

The iS CLINICAL^® Fire & Ice Facial treatment designed to rapidly and safely resurface the skin.

A precise combination of two professional treatment masques is complimented with several exceptional iS CLINICAL^® formulations, yielding extraordinary results.
