Maintaining Your Results

Give Your Body Time

Immediately after the treatment, you may notice that your skin is firmer and its texture is lifted. The full effect of the treatment generally takes around 12-weeks to kick in, and through this time, you will continue to see a dramatic improvement in facial contouring, and a visible reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.

At-Home Product Care

At Elite Body Contouring, we have partnered with MEDIK8, a results driven skincare line to support our results driven treatments. Medik8 is a cosmeceutical brand which uses high quality actives and proven ingredients in all products. These ingredients have been clinically tested and have original research behind them that you can trust will work, without needing a prescription. When you come in for your treatment, your Therapist will provide you with details on appropriate skin care options to help boost the results of your treatment, however please find some products below which we highly recommend as part of your post-treatment care at home. You can find each of these products in all Elite Body Contouring clinics.

ADVANCED DAY ULTIMATE PROTECT™
Age-Defying Moisturiser with Sunscreen & Photolyase

50ml / $134

Medik8’s ultimate day cream. Advanced Day Ultimate Protect features sun protection, elevated with next-generation DNA repair enzymes and our most advanced 360° environmental shield, ever. The beautifully hydrating cream leaves the complexion with an invisible protective shield ready for the day ahead. The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles are visibly reduced, skin is infused with long-lasting hydration, with future signs of ageing kept at bay

GENTLE CLEANSE™
Hydrating Rosemary Foam

150ml ($44)

A mild, rosemary-infused foaming wash that gently removes dirt, make-up and impurities, without unbalancing skin’s delicate moisture levels. Perfect for even the most sensitive skin, this ultra-gentle formula is lightweight yet extremely hydrating to leave skin feeling refreshed and glowing. Natural glycerine deeply moisturises skin while rosemary’s natural antioxidants prevent free radical damage, which can lead to premature skin ageing. The pH balanced formula is also free from sulphates and soaps which can be harsh on skin, to ensure you are left feeling fresh and hydrated and never tight

C-TETRA®
Lipid Vitamin C Antioxidant Serum

30ml / $82

Restore radiance and fight visible signs of ageing with C-Tetra, a super-light daily vitamin C serum. Antioxidant power is provided through vitamin C and E. Together, these actives help to combat sun and pollution-induced damage. The lightweight, uplifting formula helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as visibly brightening the complexion and balancing skin tone. Using a lipid-soluble form of vitamin C called tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, the formula penetrates deep into skin to provide powerful antioxidant protection with minimal irritation. 

RETINOL 3TR™
Advanced 0.3% Vitamin A Serum

15ml / $75

Reveal a more youthful appearance with this lightweight Intelligent Retinol (vitamin A) serum. Designed to complement skin’s nightly regenerative cycle, Retinol 3TR™ resurfaces while you sleep to rejuvenate skin and restore radiance. Hailed as the most effective ingredient in anti-ageing, vitamin A improves skin texture, minimises the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and balances uneven skin tone. Retinol also helps to decongest pores and regulate sebum production for a clearer looking complexion. Formulated with Time Release Technology, retinol is delivered gradually into the deeper layers of the skin throughout the night.

HYDR8 B5™
Liquid Rehydration Serum

30ml / $84

Infuse your skin with intense hydration and long-lasting moisture with Hydr8 B5, Medik8’s best-selling moisturising serum. Known for holding up to 1,000x its own weight in water, multi-weight hyaluronic acid draws and binds water from the atmosphere into the skin. Using an optimum blend of hyaluronic acid weights ensures skin is seriously moisturised from the deepest layers right up to the surface. Enriched with vitamin B5 to improve skin’s water retention and regeneration, skin is left plump and noticeably hydrated. The fast-absorbing, silky-smooth serum softens fine lines and wrinkles to leave skin supple, restored and nourished.

EYELIFT™ PEPTIDES
Age-Defying Firming Gel

15ml / $94

Tackle all visible signs of ageing around the eyes while deeply hydrating the delicate eye area. This multi-action anti-ageing eye serum helps to lift and shape the look of eye contours for an immediate well-rested look. With a complex of 5 age-defying peptides, the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles are reduced to create a bright-eyed awakening effect. At the same time, an anti-ageing protein complex helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and reduce puffiness. The award-winning formula also utitlises hesperidin to minimise dark circles, plus natural glycerine to gently hydrate. Perfect for use under make-up, this is the ultimate lifting and firming eye treatment.
