PROFILE PERFECT: THE BUZZ AROUND JAWLINE CONTOURING
Jawline contouring has fast become one of the most sought-after cosmetic treatments — and for good reason. The jawline is the foundation of the lower face, shaping overall harmony and balance. Even the most subtle enhancements can make the face appear more lifted, defined, and refreshed.
Thanks to modern non-surgical techniques like dermal fillers, botulinum toxin, and skin boosters, it’s now easier than ever to create natural, sculpted definition without downtime. Whether it’s softening strong jaw muscles, refining jowls, or enhancing structure, treatments can be tailored to suit each individual’s goals.
As Senior Advanced Cosmedicine Nurse Marilou explains, “A well-defined jawline can transform the whole face — it’s about balance, not change.”

Sunekos: The Injectable Skin Regenerator Everyone’s Talking About
Looking for a treatment that goes beyond fillers and Botox?

Combining hyaluronic acid with a patented blend of six amino acids, Sunekos stimulates collagen and elastin production for smoother, firmer, more radiant skin — making it especially effective for delicate areas like under the eyes, neck, and décolletage.

Skin’s New Secret Weapon: Why Everyone’s Talking About Exosomes
The future of skin health lies in regeneration — and exosomes are leading the way. These microscopic messengers, derived from stem cells, help your skin repair, renew, and function at its best. Packed with growth factors and proteins, exosomes enhance collagen and elastin production, calm inflammation, and accelerate healing.
When combined with advanced treatments like RF Needling or SkinPen, exosomes supercharge results — improving texture, tone, and long-term skin vitality. Think of them as the ultimate skin boosters, working at a cellular level to future-proof your glow.
As Medical Skin Therapist Sheridyn explains, “Exosomes take skin rejuvenation to the next level — they don’t just treat the surface, they help your skin truly regenerate from within.”

Menopause & Skin: What Really Happens
(and How to Keep Your Glow)
Menopause is more than just a hormonal shift—it’s a stage where your skin can feel drier, thinner, and less resilient than before. But these changes aren’t inevitable. By understanding how declining oestrogen impacts collagen, hydration, and skin repair, and by combining smart skincare with healthy lifestyle choices, it’s possible to keep your skin glowing, strong, and supported through every stage.

What’s Really Causing Your Congestion?
Think oily skin causes congestion? Think again. It’s not how much oil your skin produces—but the type of oil—that impacts breakouts and blockages.
