Hair Removal:
Superfluous hair is a common problem nowadays for both men and women as we live in a society that is becoming increasingly trichophobia and more attention seems to be placed upon personal appearance and grooming.
Peppermint Group have a sound client base in aesthetic treatments with many referrals being made through personal recommendation due to his non-judgmental and confidential approach when delivering chosen treatments.
Staff who are undertaking your treatment are fully trained in the use of the lasers provided by the Lynton Lasers which are safe and effective systems for many of the treatments listed above. These systems produce desired results on a wide range of skin and hair types much more quickly and more comfortably than electrolysis. The colour pigment in the hair, melanin, absorbs the light when it is flashed across the skin causing the hair follicle to heat up thus restricting the follicle’s ability to produce another hair.
Vascular Treatments:
Staff have undergone training with the Lynton Lasers to treat vascular lesions, thread/red veins and rosacea. Laser treatments are excellent for removing vascular lesions safely, effectively and quickly. Common vascular conditions that can be treated include fine thread veins & rosacea.
Rosacea is a common condition of unknown cause affecting facial skin. It usually appears when people reach 30 - 40 and manifests as a flushing/redness on cheeks, nose, forehead and chin. If left untreated it can worsen and the redness can increase. Bumps and pimples and small dilated blood vessels become visible.
Thread veins and telangiectasia can be simply treated with a simple laser treatment. They tend to occur on the face and legs and generally consist of fine visible veins appearing near the surface of the skin. They can increase over time. Leg thread veins are very common, 1 in 5 women find them very embarrassing and distressing. Only fine veins on legs can be successfully treated.
Skin Rejuvenation:
This is becoming more popular as society is increasingly interested in anti-ageing treatments and products. It is less traumatic or costly than surgery, microdermabrasion and the skin recovery is quick.

Tattoo Pigmentation Removal:
Removing tattoo pigmentation on skin is complex. There are many lasers on the market that can attempt to remove tattoo ink effectively. Lynton Lasers have developed cutting edge technology that can deal with most ink colours.
The light emitted from a Lynton Laser, is target driven to the various depths that tattoo ink is placed, also can tackle some of the lightest shades of colours.
