You can’t love anyone else until you love yourself. 

It’s a cliche, but oh so true. And it’s all the more relevant at the moment with the pandemic’s effects playing havoc on our mental health. Staying home and staying apart has left us socially disconnected. Lonely even. And all the extra time scanning social media has mashed our brains. Not to mention the self-esteem blow that comes with seeing the flawless, filtered faces of those Instagram beauties every day!

So look inwards for romance this Valentine’s Day. Take some ‘me’ time. And focus on getting a happy mind, a nurtured body, and healthy skin. Here are our top three beauty treats to show yourself some love and give your confidence a boost.

Revitalise tired eyes 

Stress, late nights, or simply getting older can leave us with dull, tired-looking eyes. Regain that youthful sparkle with HIFU eye Treatment, a revolutionary new treatment that’s gentle enough to be done in your lunch hour. Targeting eye bags, wrinkles, drooping eyelids, and dark circles, it’s a great option if you want to refresh the eye area without surgery. And the best thing? It’s painless!

First, your therapist will apply a powerful periocular peel charged with anti-aging, anti-fatigue, and depigmentation ingredients. Next comes a sterile solution, specially designed for the delicate eye area. This helps to combat discolouration and promote blood flow around the eye socket. Finally, a crystal fibre eye mask is applied. Charged with hydrating hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, and cucumber extract, the mask cools and refreshes your skin.

Lift, tone, and tighten sagging skin

It’s natural for our skin to look a little less plump as we age. But if fine lines, jowls, and forehead wrinkles are really getting you down, there are skincare solutions to help. CACI’s facial toning system — hailed as the non-surgical face lift — is loved by Hollywood’s finest. Jennifer Anniston is one such advocate. 

“I love the CACI laser,” – its not a laser – use CACI facial) she said, in a recent article by @LOFFICIELUSA. “A couple of my girlfriends and my makeup artist Gucci Westman turned me onto the CACI, and the LED red light therapy gadget. She has amazing skin. I think try anything and if it starts to work then it’s a great thing to have. We are really moving forward with technology to do with our skin and it’s fabulous.”

CACI Facial Toning is available right here at Vale Laser Clinic. We combine four different technologies — micro-current, ultrasonic peeling, hydratone, and LED light therapy — to gently lift, tighten, and tone the facial muscles. The result is healthy skin with a firmer, more supple appearance. 

Get silky-smooth skin, from head to toe

Fed up with painful ingrown hairs? Want to swap shaving stubble with a silky-smooth bikini line? Then laser hair removal is the self-love treatment for you. It’s non-invasive and it can remove unwanted hair from any part of the body. Utilising an IPL laser, it works by delivering short bursts of light energy to the skin’s surface. This, in turn, destroys hair follicles at the base to stop hair from regrowing. A course of eight will leave you with gorgeous, fuzz-free skin. 

So, there you have it. If you like the sound of our self-love tips, come and see us at Vale Laser Clinic this February.
