Medical Peels can help you reverse the damaging effects that sun exposure, aging and stress can have on your skin, revealing renewed, healthier-looking skin and a more uniform complexion. These popular skin resurfacing treatments use special substances to accelerate skin exfoliation and renewal, leaving you with vibrant, radiant looking skin. Medical Peels can address visible skin imperfections such as fine lines and wrinkles, as well as hyperpigmentation and age spots, or acne and acne scars.
Medical Peel is applied by the doctor after a prior consultation. Treatment duration may vary depending on the skin condition that needs to be treated. After a certain time of application, the peel might be neutralized, and soothing products are applied. You may feel a tingling or burning sensation during the procedure, but this usually subsides within a few minutes. Depending on the depth of the peel (superficial/ medium peel), you should experience mild redness, followed or not by scaling (exfoliation).
For optimal results, it is recommended to undergo a series of 4-6 sessions at 10 to 14 days interval, depending on the peel used and the recovery period. To sustain the results, the procedure can be repeated after a year.

No needles Biorevitalization is a procedure of skin stimulation and restoration without rehabitation.
The PRX-T33® – No needles biorevitalizer is an innovative peeling which almost does not affect the surface layer of the skin, and therefore does not require a long recovery period. Based on the intensity of exposure to the skin, it refers to the medium peels. This means that it penetrates deep inside the layers of the skin, but also acts on the epidermal superficial skin layer, stimulating it to actively renew and regenerate. Due to the unique composition of PRX-T33®, the solution very quickly, almost instantly penetrates the dermis, activates all the processes of skin regeneration/renewal, however, does not damage the epidermis at all.
The PRX-T33® is an improved formula of the trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peel. Due to its unique combination of 33% TCA, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and 5% kojic acid, PRX-T33® is not as “aggressive” as pure TCA.
This type of peeling can solve many problems with the skin, but the key recommendations for the peeling are the following signs:
During the procedure, the patient may feel tingling or minor burning sensations that are easy to be tolerated – this is normal.
After the PRX-T33® procedure, a slight redness may occur. It passes off after a few minutes and does not require any rehabilitation procedures. The treatment is completed with the specialy formulated WIQO MOISTURIZING CREAM. This face cream intensively moisturizes and nourishes the skin after the PRX-T33®, preventing the development of side effects by increasing the barrier functions of the skin.

Mesotherapy is a nonsurgical cosmetic treatment that specifically targets certain problems of the body such as face/neck rejuvenation, pigmentations, acne/acne scars/scars, body contouring& anticellulitis, stretched marks, hair loss.
The therapy consists in injecting the skin (after a local application of anesthetic cream) with a very thin needle (32-34 G needle) of specific formulated medical cocktails accordingly to each case: vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other active substances directly into the deeper layer of the skin where the small blood vessels are, the mesoderm. Mesotherapy provides intensive hydration and nutrition of the skin itself, and the ageing process is significantly slowed down, improving the nourishment and the look of skin.
The goal of mesotherapy in the skin rejuvenation process is to increase the activities of fibroblast, cells responsible for production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid in the skin, and to apply full concentration of active substances necessary to regenerate healthy and youthful skin. With repeated procedures the depth of the wrinkles is reduced, the amount of collagen is increased and therefore the skin tone is improved.
Mesotherapy is performed on the face, neck, cleavage, hands or thighs. Another important indication for mesotherapy is reduction in cellulite with great results in combination with medical devices.
It takes from 3 to 4 mesotherapy treatments to see great result. The number of treatments is individual and depends on the age, treated region, and the habits of the patients (smoking, exposure to solar radiation). Mesotherapy can be an outstanding complement to other aesthetic procedures such as dermal fillers, Botox, chemical peels, threads lift, etc.

Dermapen, a highly advanced skin rejuvenation therapy system, is available at CosmediCa Beauty Clinic. The original Dermapen4 medical device is the future generation of automated vertical microneedling. There is simply no comparison to the Dermapen4, as it is the most advanced microneedling device available. The Dermapen4 has a total of 16 needles that produce up to 1920 microchannels per second into the skin.
This collagen induction therapy treats wrinkles and tightens the skin, building up new collagen and smoothing the skin in a comfortably and effectively manner.
The therapy is a great solution for patients with problematic skin of all kinds, pigmentations, scars including acne scars, surgical scars and stretch marks.
Microneedling treatment consists in creating millions of fine, vertical micro-injuries in the skin with a multiple microneedles of a latest technology electronic device, which triggers new collagen and elastin formation as well as increasing the local blood flow and formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis). These fractional micro-channels allow the special formulated medicine cocktails (hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, vitamins, amino acids, etc.) to go deep into the skin and to target certain problems. These channels. The goal of DERMAPEN microneedling in the skin rejuvenation process is to increase the activities of fibroblast, cells responsible for production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid in the skin, and to apply full concentration of active substances necessary to regenerate healthy and youthful skin. With repeated procedures the depth of the wrinkles is reduced, the amount of collagen is increased and therefore the skin tone is improved. The result is skin rejuvenation result with smoother, firmer, tighter and younger looking skin.
The micro-injuries trigger a natural process of repair, increasing production of collagen and elastin and visibly improving a wide range of skin concerns:
For optimal results, it is recommended to undergo a series of 3-4 sessions at 3 – 4 weeks interval, depending on the skin condition and the recovery period. To sustain the results, the procedure can be repeated after 6 months.
After treatment there is a mild/moderate redness on the treated area that subsides after 12-48 hours after treatment, but most of our patients are able to return to normal daily activities a few hours after the treatment. Application of skin repair/recovery creams immediately and couple of days after the therapy, seals and heals the skin. The use of sunscreen protection is mandatory.

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) = Vampire Therapy is a noninvasive medical procedure that uses patient’s blood that will be reinjected into the skin to obtain rejuvenation/revitalization/tightening and improvement in skin tone, laxity and texture. Blood is drawn from the arm and centrifuged to separate plasma. In fact, what it is obtained is called PRP (platelet rich plasma) highly concentrated in Growth Factors. This is then used and injected in desired areas and stimulates the cells to produce new collagen and elastin (collagenogenesis), new microcirculation (angiogenesis), and bioactive proteins essential for cellular metabolism. Once injected into the skin, the platelets will start secreting Growth Factors within 10 minutes, but the process of synthesis will continue over the next 7-10 days. The result is smoother, firmer, tighter, rehydrated and younger looking skin. The diminishing of pigmentation is significant after completing a serries of treatments as the doctor will recommend to you.
After your treatment, you may notice some mild redness, discomfort and minor bruising at the site of injection, which is absolutely normal, and they depend on patient’s sensibility. However, there are no known side effects of PRP, which is very safe as it is performed using your own blood. Most of our patients are able to return to normal activities 24 hours after the treatment. Application of skin repair/recovery creams immediately and couple of days after the therapy, seals and heals the skin and promotes healing and protection. The use of sunscreen protection is mandatory. Vigurous exercise, sauna and the use of makeup for 24 hours are not recommended after this therapy.
In order to obtain maximum results, PRP treatments should be repeated in a series of 3-4 sessions in total, with an interval of 4-6 weeks in between treatments. The protocol then can be repeated annually to mentain results

Botulinum toxin A (BOTOX, DYSPORT, ALLUZIENCE) is a product of specific bacteria – clostridium botulinum, which produces a class of chemical compound known as “toxin”, used for medical purposes. The injections of Botox in small doses into specific muscles by a certified doctor, block the chemical signals and disables muscle contractions and therefore the formation of wrinkles.
BOTOX/ DYSPORT is used for the cosmetic treatment of frown area wrinkles, crow’s feet wrinkles, forehead horizontal lines and neck bands. BOTOX/ DYSPORT has also been used to treat migraine headaches, excessive perspiration disorders (hyperhidrosis) of the armpit and hands.
BOTOX/ DYSPORT injections are customized for every patient, depending on his or her particular needs.
Small bruises at the injection site could be possible, due to the patient sensibility. After BOTOX, we strongly advise our patients not to go to the gym, not to use sauna, or to have massages in the treated area for 48-72 hrs. For couple of hours right after the therapy, we recommend that patient should not lay down in order to prevent the product’s migration in unwanted muscles and to have undesired asymmetries.
BOTOX/ DYSPORT application effect last from four to six months, and after that the muscle completely recovers. In some rare cases, the effect lasts less, especially in patients that have thyroid hyperactivity, persons that exercise a lot, etc. Following that, the treatment can be repeated an unlimited number of times without any contraindications. Also, the treatments can be interrupted in any time without any fear that there will be any consequences on the face. Due to the possibly of developing resistance to the toxin, it is not recommended to repeat your injections in less than 3 months.
BOTOX/ DYSPORT cannot stop the process of aging. It can, however, temporarily diminish the look of wrinkles caused by contraction of certain muscle groups.
BOTOX/ DYSPORT injections may be performed as a singular procedure or as an adjunct to another aesthetic procedure (fillers, mesotherapy, etc.) except high intensity devices. The doctor will explain to you exactly what procedures could be combined depending on each individual case
Hyaluronic acid filter injections are stabilized hyaluronic acids used to smooth moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds around the nose and mouth or shape facial contours. The mentioned filler has been approved for the cosmetic treatment of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and soft tissue depressions.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance that is found within various tissues in our body. It is a molecule that strongly binds with water and it is therefore used as an ingredient of quality skin creams. Hyaluronic acid is biocompatible; the injections are customized for every patient, depending on his/ her particular needs. These cannot stop the process of aging. It can however, temporarily diminish the look of wrinkles and soft tissue depressions. The injections may be performed as a singular procedure, in combination with other treatments such as Dysport, Chemical Peeling, Mesotherapy, PRP, laser resurfacing procedures. Fillers can produce temporary swelling, redness, and needle marks and bruises which resolve after a few days’ time.
The outcome and the amount of material that is spent, and therefore the patient’s satisfaction, depends on the technique and the type of hyaluronic acid. Continuing treatments are necessary in order to maintain the effect of filler over time. The filler once injected will be slowly absorbed and last in the body for a period of 6-8 months up to maximum 12 months.
The non-surgical facelift is a minimal invasive medical procedure that uses PDO/PCL/COG threads. The MONO threads that are used in aesthetic and antiaging medicine, are biodegradable and completely resorbable once inserted under the skin. Once inserted under the skin, the threads stimulate the synthesis of collagen and produce a facelift. The results will start to be visible after approximately 3-4 weeks, and the complete absorption will be completed after about 6-8 months, but the effects will last 1 year, depending on the individual patient’s metabolic rate and the type of thread used. The result is smoother, firmer, tighter and younger looking skin.
The COG threads are stronger, thicker threads used to pull the skin layers against gravity. Due to their barbs, they anchor in the deeper layers, helping to obtain a lifting effect. The final effect is similar to a plastic surgery lift and can last up to 2 years.
Plasma Pen is the world’s most advanced, non-invasive, skin tightening, skin lifting and rejuvenation device used to treat wrinkles and sagging skin. The Plasma Pen is an FDA approved, CE approved device used to perform fibroblast therapy, a technique used to stimulate production of collagen and elastin in the skin.
Our highly trained doctor uses the Plasma Pen device to create microtrauma to the skin’s epidermal layer (top layer), transmitting simultaneously heat and disrupting the deeper dermal structure via thermal conduction. The treatment is also known as plasma fibroblasting. Fibroblasts are the most common cells or connective tissues in the body that produce collagen. Plasma fibroblasting therapy significantly tightens, lifts resurfaces and regenerates practically any area of the skin.
Plasma Pen skin tightening results are impressive but should not be proposed as an alternative to surgery in cases of moderate to severe skin laxity. Only surgery can achieve corrections in these cases.
Results will typically be seen right after treatment along with cumulative improvements over the next three months. In some cases, it may require more than one session, depending on skin condition and the desired results.
Plasma Pen is mildly uncomfortable. Everyone’s pain level is different, and some areas of the body are more sensitive than others. Numbing cream is used to reduce the discomfort during the procedure.
This medical procedure is a safe procedure, but it is good to know that some side effects are expected:
Patients with dark skin type are not suitable candidates for Plasma Pen procedure, due to the increased risk of post treatment pigmentation. CosmediCa Clinic is committed to safe and effective treatments for all. We don’t risk; therefore we do not provide this treatment on patients with Fitzpatrick skin types 4-6 (African, Latin, Indian, Middle Eastern, or people of mixed ethnicities with dark skin)

The new Deoxycholate (DESOFACE) fat dissolving injection is designed to treat those difficult localized pockets of fat such as under chin area (double chin). This active ingredient is intended for the treatment of “stubborn” fat deposits which are often resistant to diet and exercise. The lipolytic treatment consists of lipolytic application with injections directly into the fatty tissue of the treated under chin area region.
During application, active substances lead to braking of the fat cells’ membranes in the treated zone and to outpouring of their content into the surrounding tissue. From there, in a natural way, via the bloodstream, the fat is transported to the liver and gets thrown out of our organism. It is necessary to emphasize that this procedure doesn’t change the level of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. The procedure itself has mild pain. After 15 minutes of the application, a sense of itching, redness and mild swelling of the treated region appears. The swelling can last in rare cases up to 72 hrs. In the next few weeks, there is some sensitivity when the treated fatty tissue is pressed. The treatment effect is observed approximately one month after the application and the final effect comes after 2 months.
The effect is permanent in people who do not gain weight again.
During the treatment bruises may occur and that’s why it is advised to stop taking substances that increase the risk of bruises, like Aspirin, Nurofen, Voltaren, Ginkgo Biloba, and Vitamin E. The occurrence of painful nodules is usually transient, and it is a consequence of an inflammatory process that develops when fat is dissolved. Three days after the treatment, massages and the usual exercises may begin. It is recommended to drink from 1.5 to 2 liters of fluids a day. For people allergic to soy and vitamin B, lipolysis treatments are not recommended.
Lipolysis treatment lasts from 20 to 30 minutes and enables the continuation of the usual daily activities right after the intervention.
The under-chin region is treated with 3 to 4 treatments, every 4 weeks, until the wanted effect is achieved. The process of fatty cells breakdown is slow and the lipolytic affects the skin in such a way that makes it firmer and doesn’t allow an excess of skin to appear after the fat loss. Depending on the amount of fatty tissue on the patient’s body, sometimes only one treatment could be enough.

PRP for hair loss is a blood plasma enriched with thrombocytes (platelets), which has been used successfully in medicine for years. Due to its strong effect to tissue regeneration and healing, it is a highly effective procedure used in Aesthetic Medicine to treat hair loss. Platelet Rich Plasma contains numerous growth factors and bioactive proteins which influence hair regeneration and restoration.
To get platelet enriched plasma which will be applied into the scalp, a small amount of blood is taken from the patient. After the blood centrifuge, the separation produces platelet enriched plasma which will release growth factors and cytokines. Once separated, the blood plasma is injected with miniature needles numerous times into the scalp. This procedure stimulates the growth of hair follicles, creates new blood vessels and regenerates the scalp tissue. After the treatment there are no adverse reactions except mild redness which withdraws 24 hours after the intervention.
PRP therapy is used successfully in androgenic alopecia, alopecia areata and scarring alopecia of different causes, and in which the standard vitamins, corticosteroids and minoxidil therapy hasn’t provided the desired outcome. The best results are achieved in the initial stages of hair loss. Therapy activates hair follicles which go from the inactive stage to the active growth phase. PRP therapy is indicated in men who have hair loss in the frontal-temporal regions and in initial hair loss in the parietal part of the scalp. The therapy produces poorer results in later stages when hair loss encapsulates larger surface of the scalp which then connects with the hair loss in the frontal-temporal regions. The earlier the treatment is started the greater the likelihood of hair re-growth.
Positive results of the PRP for hair loss are achieved in over 80% of the cases. The hair becomes thicker, significant reduction pf hair loss is noticeable, and any further thinning process is stopped.
To achieve good results, sessions of 4-6 treatments need to be done in 1-2 month intervals.
