	A recent advance in technology delivers the next best thing to a facelift with no downtime and no discomfort. The original Thermage technology, has been improved to the point that the effects last for years. The improvement, according to Judith Finn, Director of E.C.C., is the cooling burst delivered by the redesigned Thermacool NXT System. The client is kept comfortable while the heat that facilitates collagen remodeling can penetrate more deeply, with longer lasting and noticeable results. “When they leave, their skin hardly looks pink and you can see the lift immediately,” explains Judith. more>

	Laser Resurfacing - Deep under your skin could be the youthful complexion you are seeking, it just takes some deep laser beams to find it. Profractional laser resurfacing is a treatment that Judith Finn recommends for clients who want to have smoother looking skin but have issues like deep wrinkles, scars, sun Keratosis and rejuvenation. The director of E.C.C. Cosmetic and Laser Centre explains that profractional lasers penetrate deep into the skin to stimulate collagen. The heat caused by the laser has a “tightening effect” on the collagen. While other laser treatments will eliminate brown spots, red areas and fine lines, profractional lasers are used to address “anything with depth”, explains Finn. She’s referring to scarring like deep marks caused by acne, stubborn brown spots as well as deep wrinkles or “anything with texture.” more>

	When Judith Finn began offering permanent hair removal back in 1984, each hair was removed individually by electrolysis. It was a process that had been around since 1875. With the advent of laser treatments, the process has become much faster. “When the laser came along it was wonderful news. We were able to get over large areas very quickly,” Finn explains. According to the director of the E.C.C. Cosmetic and Laser Centre lasers work on colour, they won’t “see” blonde or white hair. Those hairs will be removed by microscopic epilation. All of the dermal therapists at her clinic are skilled in both laser and electrolysis, treatments that will achieve permanent hair removal. more>
