• Ultrasound Guided Foam
Sclerotherapy (UGFS) uses
specialised ultrasound
equipment to guide injections
of sclerosant to permanently
close the vein. This procedure is
virtually painless, so requires no
anaesthesia.
• Endovenous Laser Ablation
(EVLA) is the gold standard
varicose vein treatment and
requires no general anaesthesia
or hospital stay. You walk in and
walk out (wearing compression
stockings for two weeks) and are
able to drive home afterwards.
Like UGFS, there’s no downtime
and you can be back at work the
next day.
• The newest treatment on offer
is Venaseal, a medical glue that
closes off varicose veins. If this
treatment is the right solution
for you, there is no need to
wear stockings and air travel
is allowed at any point after
treatment, so you don’t need to
put off your winter break.
It’s clear that David has a real
passion for what he does. “I never
tire of seeing the profound effect
the results of these treatments
have. To know that I’ve helped
improve a client’s quality of life is
just gold; it means I’ve done what I
set out to do,” he says.
enhanceskin has also met an
increase in demand for the facial
aesthetics treatments they offer in
Blenheim. Registered Nurse, Lacey
Boyd, offers clinics locally at the
Churchill Trust Private Hospital.
Lacey has been expertly tutored in
facial rejuvenation techniques and
treatments by Dr David Orsbourn.
Her gentle touch and calming
manner, combined with the
enhanceskin ethos of helping their
clients age gracefully, have proved
to be a winning combination.
Lacey believes winter is a good
time to address what she and
David refer to as, Sun Damage
Remorse. She says, “Sun damage is
the main cause of extrinsic ageing,
which manifests itself in the skin’s
pigment changes and fine lines”.
enhanceskin offers several
treatments to help combat the
effects of sun damage, and
to help determine the right
course of treatment for each
individual, Lacey offers an initial
complimentary consultation.
Some of the most popular and
effective treatments include:
• Fractora. The No.1 treatment to
restore sun damaged skin. This
procedure uses fractionated
Radio Frequency energy to
rejuvenate and resurface the
skin, slowing the effects of
ageing and restoring your
skin. It’s perfect for reducing
redness, brown spots and
fine lines, but has the added
benefits of tightening your skin
and improving the overall skin
texture. It is the gold-standard in
resurfacing treatment options.
• IPL Skin Rejuvenation. Light
is used to selectively treat
pigmentation, red veins, or both.
This brief treatment requires no
downtime and after a course of
three to five sessions will give
a seventy to eighty per cent
improvement in appearance. So,
you will no longer need to hide
under makeup!
• Erase your skin’s past with
Dermapen Microneedling. This
relatively painless treatment
stimulates the production of
new collagen and elastin. The
freshly-produced collagen
rejuvenates the skin by filling
fine lines. This results in an
overall improvement in the
skin’s
