In the quest for beauty, many go to great lengths to achieve their desired look – from homemade remedies and beauty parlour visits to crazy fads, Botox and plastic surgery. We are lucky to be in an age where technology is on our side in the pursuit of beauty, yet with so many effective, non-invasive options, going under the knife is hardly ever necessary.

CUTTING EDGE – WITHOUT THE KNIFE

For Gigi Ma, former actress and CEO of CosMax, which provides non-surgical medical aesthetic services at its Hong Kong beauty centres, to bring out “the unique beauty of each woman” is part of the brand concept. “We believe in professional and attentive service, personalised medical beauty treatments with cutting-edge technology that’s been proven to be effective, safe and fast,” she says. “Keeping our aesthetic services non-surgical is important because guests can quickly see results. Short treatment time, low risk, and little to no downtime mean less inconvenience.”

With more than 35 treatments on the menu featuring over 90 different pieces of high-tech equipment, CosMax’s medical team can design a bespoke treatment plan for each client based on age, lifestyle and skincare concerns ranging from wrinkles, pigmentations and dryness to skin laxity and stubborn fat. “Our treatments are suitable for clients over 18 years old,” she says. “We recommend infusion treatments for guests in their 20s; laser treatments for those over 30 to reduce spots, wrinkles and lines; and for mothers, there are treatments that contour the body and lighten stretch marks.”
