3D-lipo’s 3D-Lasersculpt

3D-lipo continues its expansion into the laser arena with the launch of 3D-Lasersculpt, a bodycontouring treatment that uses 1060nm laser technology to reduce stubborn fat in problem areas, such as the abdomen and love handles, helping to achieve a slimmer appearance without surgery or downtime.

3D-lipo managing director Roy Cowley said, “This is a revolution in localised fat removal. It offers a similar concept to cryosculpture but with heat and a much quicker treatment time of just 25 minutes.” During the treatment, applicators are secured onto the skin to deliver the laser energy through the epidermis, without affecting it.

The targeted application of laser energy heats the fat cells under the skin, raising the temperature to between 42 and 47ºC to cause the structure to damage via a process called necrosis.

The body then identifies the dead cells as waste and drains them naturally via the lymphatic system, with results visible in eight to 10 weeks.

“We want to offer advanced technologies at an affordable price. Each concept we sell is high spec but affordable to our customers and, in turn, affordable for their clients. We are making technology attainable,” adds Cowley.

Other benefits of the Laser Sculpt treatment include Advanced Comfort Cooling, precise targeting of problem areas, no downtime and controlled temperature technology.

Sienna X

Pro tanning brand Sienna X is extending its retail range with three trend-led products in clear, clean and modern packaging; Gradual Sleep Tanning Drops, Skin Finish Illuminating Mist, and Eraser Self Tan Remover.

“Instagram is key to sales in this digital age, even when it comes to the way people are buying. More and more, social media sites are driving product purchases,” says Nicky Matthews, Sienna X chief executive. “We wanted to make sure our new products looked great on those channels and could inspire and give confidence to the next generation of tanners that are coming through.”

The first new product being introduced to the range is the Sleep Tanning Drops. “We originally went with the idea of a facial tanner but we soon realised, after conducting market research, that people want to continue using their favourite products with the added benefit of maintaining their facial tan,” says Matthews.

“We formulated the tanning drops without a fragrance so that consumers could add it to their favourite night creams.” The drops contain organic coconut and avocado oils, which moisturise the skin and boost collagen production, plus marine bamboo, which fights against pollution as well as damage caused by blue light.

The second product is the Illuminating Mist, which is formulated with a bronze light-relective pigment for a glowing finish for the face and body. It contains antioxidants and green tea extract to add moisture to the skin.

Lastly, there is a product that has been missing from the Sienna X range up until this point, the Tan Remover. After experiencing a high demand from consumers and therapists, the brand has formulated an exfoliating remover that comes with a mitt. It removes tan that has been applied within an hour and can also be used on older patchy tan, ready for a fresh application.

Trade: £10 for the drops; £8.75 for the mist, £10 for the Self Tan Remover 0333 600 1200 sienna-x.co.uk
