Welcome to our new location

We are proud to announce that we have started providing services from our new new Tier 1 Day Spa / Medi Spa & Skincare Clinic located at Shop 14 Four Seasons House, 191 - 203 Anketell St Greenway.

Reasons for our move

To meet customer demands for more skincare-focused treatments, we are transforming our Salon/Day Spa into a MEDISPA from which we will still maintain the bulk of our existing price list services in addition to a completely new range of medically based services, including; Anti-wrinkle and dermal filler injections; Specialist Facials, e.g. the PRP or Vampire Facial; Deep Penetrating Chemical Peels; Cosmetic Tattooing and Microblading.

Customer Driven Move

Our decisions to move have all been client-driven:

 

  • Reduced Pamper - Many clients no longer see the spa as 'pampering', but as a vehicle they can use to stay healthy and look good. They want simplicity in their spa treatments and are opting for more traditional spa products. Their free time is, limited, and they have less time to spend at a spa.

    We are designing our primary offerings around this trend and tailoring treatments to suit their busy lifestyle. Some prominent drivers include:

  • The Eastern/Asian influence - this influence has become large in the industry. There is a strong trend towards "medical" products and services, utilising cosmeceutical products with active ingredients. 

  • Cosmeceuticals - Elegant Image has carried a small range of cosmeceutical therapies, which will be enhanced to meet the growing demand. Cosmeceuticals are probably best described simply as 'functional ingredients', these have an effect on the body and, by definition, can't be 'cosmetics', but they are neither formulated nor regulated as OTC/drug products. We believe cosmeceuticals will act as another growth driver as clients focus on 'wellness'. Our introduction to cosmeceuticals was with Sothys in their prestige skincare range, but we fully expect to see them increasingly cross over into other areas (such as make-up and hair care) as both upstream prestige and mass-market beauty houses develop new multifunctional products, particularly in anti-aging ingredients such as hydroxyl acids, retinol and vitamins.

  • Pamper products will become obsolete, as clients experience real skincare, we believe that only products that deliver results and not only aesthetic enhancement will dominate the market.
  • Injectables - Elegant Image has had doctors provide injectable services in-salon for some years. In our new premises, we have a dedicated room fitted out for visiting doctors and a permanent nurse who will perform injections under a doctor's supervision. 

  • Anti-ageing products - Elegant Image, for many years, has specialised in anti-ageing technologies and with products that have active ingredients that can assist in the ongoing battle against those visible signs of aging due to sun damage, smoking, toxins (such as pollution), stress, etc... We have some fantastic new technologies in the pipeline (once they have been proved and have the clinical trial evidence to support their claims) 

  • Customised/Tailored Treatments - we believe clients will demand high levels of personal service and we are designing systems that will allow us to provide these service levels.

  • Detox at the Spa - This is an interesting development and we have put a toe in the water by building an Infrared Sauna into the clinic,

  • Environmental Awareness - Many clients expect us to become 'greener'. It always has been our policy to only use environmentally friendly, this will be reinforced with a more rigorous interrogation of future systems and products.
