Acne Clearing System

Proderma’s Acne Clearing System offers a comprehensive protocol that will clear your acne condition in just 4-12 weeks.  The duration of each individual will vary depending on each case and it’s severity.

Our clinical proprietary of products are user friendly, pleasantly aromatic that deliver quick results which are then combined with short therapeutic weekly treatments that are slowly modified after each visit.  This not only rapidly clears the complexion, but will also increase the post wound healing left from the trauma of the acne.  As the acne is slowly extinguished, the inflammation and blemishes diminsh bringing it to a complete arrest. Once this has been achieved the complexion is clear and you are finished.   A peronalized home care maintenance program will be outlined that should be closely adhered to in order to maintain a control.

In addition, we provide an optimal level of care until you are completely clear. Education is provided in understanding the disease and it’s risk factors along with tools and support that are necessary in maintaining your new complexion.

Each visit is carefully documented along with careful instructions both verbal and written so it will be followed with accuracy.  An email is then sent after each visit with an update of progress and any questions you may have.

We Provide Treatment for Your Acne Scars!

Acne sufferers will be pleased to know that we offer a treatment system designed to aid in the healing of their scarring. The duration and cost of each client’s treatment program will depend on the severity and areas needing addressing.

Our radio-frequency microneedle machine works by using microneedles to safely deliver fractional radio-frequency energy to specific locations into the dermis, a deeper skin layer. This energy kickstarts the body’s natural production of collagen and elastin, and as the collagen is released and goes to work, it restructures the skin layers resulting in healthier, younger looking skin.

RF microneedle treatments are safe and effective on all skin types and treatments can be performed on other parts of the body as well.

Benefits of RF microneedle treatments include:

• reduction of acne scars
• tightening of the skin
• improved skin tone and texture
• reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

Each treatment session will last about 45 minutes. It is important to note that the results are not immediate, but will appear gradually over time. A recommended 4-6 treatments are needed to produce optimal results. As the treatment is minimally invasive, there is no downtime. The client can expect to experience a sunburn feeling and redness that should last just a day or two.

While each individual’s results may vary, results will last up to a year after the most recent RF microneedling treatment.

Take care to avoid any skin treatments at least a week prior to your RF treatment. This includes waxing, peeling, laser, and any other types of skin resurfacing. If you plan on being exposed to the sun both before and after treatments, make sure you apply sunscreen.

Avoid vigorous workouts, sauna/pool use, and makeup until any redness and swelling has gone away. Avoid hot water and showers for a day. Do not scrub, scratch, or rub the treated area until the skin is healed.

Clients who are interested in receiving treatments for their post acne scarring or for the anti-aging benefits are encouraged to schedule a complimentary consultation to discuss program details.

OC Sugaring

South Orange County’s Boutique Hair Removal and Massage Studio

One of the oldest forms of hair removal, sugaring was first practiced by the ancient Egyptians. A 100% all natural process that both nourishes and smooths the skin while gently and thoroughly removing unwanted hair, sugaring is a better alternative to waxing and other forms of hair removal.

The Ancient Art of Sugaring

Dating back to 1450 B.C, hair removal was of extreme importance. It was associated with royalty. Hair on the body was seen as a sign of poverty and uncleanliness. Ancient civilizations such as Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Greece placed a high value on aesthetic practices.

Mesopotamian Kings requested only clean and hairless women in their presence. Early hieroglyphics in Egypt depict women removing body hair in order to be able to serve their pharaoh. All women of royalty in the Turkish Empire, as well as women in the harem were expected to be hairless and considered the removal of body hair an art.

Cleopatra, well known for her beauty, also used sugaring as her method for hair removal.

Benefits to the Sugaring Method

• All natural
• Bio degradable
• Organic
• Water soluble
• Sanitary
• Good for the skin
• Slower regrowth
• Less in-grown hairs
• Doesn’t tear skin
• Only removes dead skin cells
• Less painful
• Luke warm…so won’t burn skin

Karie Mattson is licensed and certified in Massage Therapy, Esthetics and Sugaring Hair Removal. She has been in this growing industry since 2000 and has developed a real passion for sugaring hair removal technique. OC Sugaring is one of the few outfits in Orange County specializing in this practice.

Karie is kind hearted and compassionate and has always enjoyed helping others. Living in Hawaii enhanced her appreciation of natural beauty. The products she uses reflect her desire to promote beauty through the most natural and organic means possible. Pampering others is at the core of her personal philosophy.

Karie is licensed and certified in Massage therapy, esthetics, and sugaring hair removal, she has been in this growing industry since 2000. She has developed a passion for sugaring hair removal and is one of the few people in Orange County who specialize in this ancient practice.

She is excited to offer a unique way of hair removal that is all natural, biodegradable, water soluble, and all around better for the skin as opposed to traditional waxing methods.

Lift Permanent Makeup

Lift Permanent Makeup is made for your individual look and lifestyle. Our aim is to achieve the most natural results in permanent makeup procedures. We bring extensive industry experience combined with a passionate focus on enhancing individual facial features to maximize the unique beauty potential of every client.​

Permanent Makeup is the process of implanting color into the dermal layer of skin with the use of specially designed digital machine.

Microblading is the latest in permanent make up.  It originated in Asia and is also known as embroidery, microstroking and feathering.  It does not involve the use of a machine; it is performed by a specialist using a hand tool. It is a technique that uses a super fine micro-blade to etch lines into the skin.

Each procedure will take about 2 hr 45 min. A follow-up appointment will be scheduled between 4-6 weeks later.

The service can be a little uncomfortable for those who are more sensitive. However, there is an anesthetic applied during to keep this to a minimum to where it is completely tolerable.

The procedure is permanent, although most clients will experience some fading and will choose to return for touch-ups.

There is a right color for everyone. We take into consideration your natural skin color, hair color, and eye color. A soft, natural color is always preferred.

SERVICES

Lift Permanent Makeup treatments are tailor made for your individual look and lifestyle.

​Using state of the art equipment and high quality pigments from the USA, we can offer the client a pleasant experience with less pain, less trauma, faster healing and great color retention.  We follow all universal precautions and use pre-sterilized, single use needles that are 100% disposable.

BROWS

Anyone who desires more fullness of the brows will love this procedure and the time saved by not having to apply makeup. A brow treatment puts the finest looking hair strokes back into the eyebrows to provide the most natural definition and dimension possible.

5 REASONS YOU’LL LOVE GETTING YOUR BIKINI AREA WAXED

Getting your bikini area waxed by a professional can truly be a “treat yourself” moment. Most ladies find themselves more pleased with the results of waxing than other temporary hair removal options like shaving, epilation, and hair removal creams. Our top five benefits include:

1: SKIN HEALTH

Not only does waxing remove hair, it’s a physical exfoliation that removes lifeless surface skin cells, which means you’re receiving hair removal and skincare all in one.

2: SMOOTHER SKIN

Because you are removing hair from the root and exfoliating the skin, after a wax, you’ll probably find that your skin is now among the smoothest things in your life (sorry, boyfriend).

3: LONGER-LASTING RESULTS

Since your hair is being removed by the root, it will take much longer to grow back than with shaving.

4: THINNER AND FINER HAIR

When your hair does grow back after waxing, it will grow back weaker, making it finer, softer and sparser. Win-win!

5: MINIMAL IRRITATION

Many people find hair removal methods like epilation and hair removal creams irritating to the skin. However, waxing rarely causes this problem if it’s done by a licensed professional.

CONSISTENCY PAYS OFF:

Once your first wax is out of the way, you’ll find out that every reservation gets easier and easier. In order to keep your skin soft and smooth and your next wax as painless as possible, we recommend waxing year-round.

HOW EXACTLY DOES BIKINI WAXING STACK UP AGAINST THE REST?

BIKINI WAXING VS. SHAVING

Waxing provides smoother and longer lasting results by removing the hair from the root, whereas shaving cuts the hair right below the skin’s surface, causing a prickly feel days after shaving. Waxing is also healthier because it provides a physical exfoliation, removing lifeless surface cells. In other words, waxing will give you the smoothest skin – and the smoothest experience.

BIKINI WAXING VS. EPILATION

Epilation is very similar to shaving or tweezing, and removes the hair right below the skin’s surface. Because epilation is done by machine, it’s slower and significantly more painful than waxing. Waxing provides smoother and longer lasting results with far less discomfort.

BIKINI WAXING VS. HAIR REMOVAL CREAMS

Waxing provides smoother and longer lasting results by removing the hair from the root. Chemical creams only remove the hair right below the skin’s surface. Just be warned, these can be very irritating to the skin as the cream can cause burning if left on for too long.

WHAT ABOUT A MORE PERMANENT SOLUTION?

Thinking about laser hair removal? Well, it can be risky – laser hair removal may or may not provide permanent hair removal. Results vary due to women’s varying skin tones and hair types. It can also be very expensive, especially if it doesn’t turn out to be a permanent hair removal solution for you. Waxing provides smooth results for three to four weeks and is very cost effective.

THE TYPES

THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF BIKINI AND BRAZILIAN WAXES

If you’ve heard the terms bikini and Brazilian waxing thrown around interchangeably, then you may be confused. But don’t worry – we’re here to clear things up. At European Wax Center®, we define our three service offerings as bikini line waxes, bikini waxes, and bikini Brazilian waxes.

BIKINI LINE

is a basic tidying; we wax the sides (called your panty line) and across the top. If you’re wearing a bikini, this will prevent any hairs from “peeking out”.

BIKINI FULL

is the next step and allows you to take off as much or as little hair as you like from the front. If you want to leave a small “strip”, triangle, square, or nothing at all, it’s up to you.

BIKINI BRAZILIAN

goes from the front, all the way to the back with an added butt strip. This is perfect for a completely nude look or you can leave a neat triangle, strip, or square on the front. Choose the style that best fits you.
