Jaundice is a condition which results in yellowish discolouration of skin and mucus membrane and happens when the haemoglobin changes from foetal to adult type.

Slow down ageing process

ye bags, puffiness, dark circles, tired eyes, and wrinkles could soon be a thing of the past thanks to a new treatment method that is now available at the Farrell German Skin Care Centre. The centre has now introduced a brand new Infrared Eye Mask treatment that results in increased blood circulation, metabolism, oxygen levels and collagen that all contribute to slowing down the aging process. There is also a number of treatments to combat conditions, including acne, wrinkles, pigmentation, cellulite, fat reduction and stretch marks. Other options include permanent hair removal, skin rejuvenation and anti-aging procedures and other preventive measures to keep the skin looking and feeling young and vibrant.
The centre’s team of experts believes that skin problems should be handled comprehensively and chalk out steps that give the body a chance to improve itself. In the past customers have been satisfied with the centre’s range of treatment methods. These included the Fat-Away-Method, the AntiCellulite-Method, Microdermabrasion, the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technique, Cavitation, Ultrasonic, Radiofrequency, High Frequency, Mesotherapy, Lymphatic Massage, and Iontopherese. The safe and non-invasive Farrell Fat-AwayMethod brings about fat reduction and fat removal using selective dissolution of fat cells whilst simultaneously protecting other tissues. Fat cells will be cracked and removed leaving the body shaped and tightened. The treatment doesn’t affect normal working and living and could result in fat reduction of up to one size. The specialists at the centre believe that a comprehensive skin check should precede the start of any treatment regimen since problems vary from person to person. Accordingly, specialists first speak to clients and outline possible treatment methods before they take the next step. Customers can now take advantage of a new check-up upgrade that gives them before and after pictures using a Microscope camera that focuses on key areas. The centre is located at flat 225 on the second floor of the Nasser Pharmacy complex, near Al Jazeera Supermarket, Zinj. It is open from 9am to 5pm from Saturdays to Mondays and from 1pm to 9pm from Tuesdays to Thursdays. Contact 17722696 for appointments and other information.
