Cynosure Apogee elite laser arriving
October 5th, 2007
A dual wavelength laser from Cynosure, named the Apogee elite will be arriving at The Victorian Cosmetic Institute this week. It has two wavelengths that will help to remove hair on any skin type.
The 755nm wavelength (alexandrite) will remove even the finest of hairs on fairer skins, and the 1064nm (Nd:YAG) will remove hairs on dark skin.
There is a Zimmer cooler that is used with the machine that helps to chill the skin and protect it whilst the laser penetrates deeper to the hair follicle.

October 2nd, 2007
Within the next two weeks, the Berwick branch of The Victorian Cosmetic Institute is opening. We welcome Dr. Jenny Kimmins and Dr. Bryan Lim to our practice and the years of expertise in the field of cosmetic medicine that they bring.
1st post for The Victorian Cosmetic Institute
September 29th, 2007
This is the first official blog of The Victorian Cosmetic Institute.
Dr. Gavin Chan has been speaking this week on ABC radio about laser tattoo removal. He discusses the new permanent, yet reversible ink, that is soon to hit the market. The ink particles are biodegradeable, but are held in micro-capsules that are not broken down by the body. One single laser treatment, however, can rupture these micro-capsules and release the ink.
