WRAP HYDRATION INTO YOUR SKIN
This innovative 3D sculptured mask delivers potent hydration and healing repair for a stronger and more resilient feeling skin. Designed to sculpt around the face and neck to deliver pure hydrating hyaluronic acid, stimulating copper peptides, healing properties of zinc.
This treatment mask is suitable for all skin types and conditions, especially demanding, reactive skin conditions. It makes for an excellent skin prep, but I favour the benefits of this beauty mask immediately after clinical Peels and Micro Needling procedures to accelerate healing, repair and comfort.

(IPL) Intense Pulsed Light Skin Rejuvenation uses the power of light to reverse the visible signs of ageing. Unwanted blemishes, surface capillaries, diffused redness, pigmentation, age spots and sun damage can all be significantly reduced and in some instances, permanently removed.
Your skin will be assessed when you come into the salon for your IPL Consultation. You will be asked to fill in a health questionnaire and your skin will be examined to determine whether or not IPL is the suitable treatment option for your skin concerns. Your health and safety is a priority. Previous sun exposure, medications and the colour of your skin can all be a contraindication to IPL procedures and will be carefully taken into consideration before proceeding with any treatment.
You will be advised to follow a Salon Treatment Plan which may include other services such as LED Photonlite and Ultrasound Vitamin Infusion to achieve the best possible results. Avoiding sun exposure and committing to a professional skin care regime that includes a reliable SPF is also advised to assist in maintaining the best positive aesthetic outcome.

LED Photonlite
It sounds like a Photo Shoot doesn’t it ? …Well these fabulous bright LED lights certainly do turn back the clock for your skin. This is one treatment I can honestly say I have absolute faith in and never hesitate in recommending it to my Clients. Its healing capabilities in wound recovery and skin rejuvenation is truely remarkable.
Phototherapy technology was originally developed in NASA to aid wound healing in space. LED is a scientific process that uses wavelengths in the visible light spectrum to send light into the layers of the skin to activate a reaction of cellular activity. The treatment is safe, comfortable and non-invasive. It’s also twenty minutes of rest and relaxation.
Each colour of the spectrum has its own frequency and vibration. Applied to the skin, light energy is converted into cell energy, just like photosynthesis.The light is absorbed by the cell and is dispersed evenly to stimulate collagen, rejuvenate cellular production and kill acne causing bacteria. LED Photonlite treatments are so gentle, you can combine the therapy with other treatments like Microdermabrasion, Facials, Acne Control, and IPL skin rejuvenation to increase results and reduce any erythema. LED Photonlite has the perfect combination of wavelengths to deliver outstanding results for all skin types and conditions.
For optimal results I advise Clients to commit to weekly treatments until their aesthetic goal has been reached. I have proven to them by following a Salon Treatment Program, structured to suit their skins needs and introduce a quality, professional skin care range, containing Vitamin A & or C into their daily skin care regime, that results will be even greater. Commit to a treatment Plan and before you know it you will soon recognise some amazing positive changes in your skins behaviour. You will be constantly looking in the mirror for that beautiful new glowing complexion.
LED Phonlite with its superior technology has had much success in the aesthetic industry treating the following conditions
- Reducing fine lines and crows feet
- Eradicating P.acne bacteria
- Reduces excess melanin production and age spots
- Firming and toning the skin
- Stimulating collagen and elastin
- Aids in wound healing and scar reduction

Microdermabrasion at Ruth Crawley Beauty
The perfect skin solution to releasing yourself from the skin problems that restrict your self confidence. Sometimes referred to as the ‘lunchtime peel’, Microdermabrasion is an abrasive process using crystals accelerated onto the skin to abrade layers of dead and damaged skin cells. The procedure is hygienic,safe and painless and is customised for your own skin concerns.Throughout the process a vacuum suction whisks away the fired crystals and unwanted skin debris.
How long until you see results from a Microdermabrasion Treatment?
You will see an instant result after just one Microdermabrasion treatment. The skin’s circulation is increased, stimulating the lymphatic system, oxygenating the cells, bringing about nutrients and ridding the skin of unwanted toxins. Microdermabrasion improves the texture and tone of the skin, increases cell renewal, restoring the skin’s radiance.
The skin recovers rapidly after Microdermabrasion. Depending on the strength of the procedure, any redness should subside within a few hours. A light Mineral Makeup containing healing properties will be applied after the skins nourishing process. For a more advanced procedure, Ultrasound Infusion and LED Light therapies are recommended.
Other Tips & Guidance:
For the health and well being of your skin it’s best to avoid sun exposure whilst having Microdermabrasion treatments and protect your skin at all times. Microdermabrasion offers exceptional opportunities for better penetration of home care skin products. To achieve optimal aesthetic results Ruth can recommend a professional maintenance program, which will include an appropriate SPF, a salon treatment program and a quality skin care range including Vitamin A & or C for an effective skin care regime.

Can Wax Remove Hair Permanently ?
When you have waxing treatments you can expect the results to last for a few weeks. This method of hair removal is not considered to permanently remove the hair. in some cases it can stunt the growth, over time it does slow down the growth return, but usually the hair will slowly return.For a more permanent solution to hair removal I would suggest IPL Intense Pulsed Light Therapy.
by Ruth Crawley | Oct 2, 2018 | Micro Skin Needling, Uncategorized
Micro Needling also known as Collagen Induction Therapy is becoming one of the most requested treatments for skin rejuvenation. This non invasive cosmetic skin enhancing procedure corrects a vast array of skin conditions. The Micro Needling procedure induces skin rejuvenation, improving the skins texture, reducing the appearance of pore size, scarring, fine lines and wrinkles.It has been utilised to reduce dermal pigmentation also known as Melasma, surface capillaries and diffused redness. I am seeing excellent results treating Rosacea symptoms in my Salon using the Dermapen. Micro Needling has been shown to repair the skin damaged by stretch marks and can assist in stimulating follicle regeneration for stronger thicker hair.
The procedure involves vertically piercing the skin, making thousands of tiny punctures, creating micro channels that reach into the epidermal and dermal layers of the skin, whilst leaving the surface of the skin intact. Newly created micro channels make way for topical absorption of active serums thus increasing the efficacy of all active ingredients. The induced trauma to the skin, stimulates the body’s natural wound healing response which generates epidermal growth factors…. ‘the sergeants of the cells’…. this in turn stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin.
Micro Needling / Collagen Induction Therapy is suitable for all areas of the body, the most popular areas being the face, neck and décolletage. To obtain optimal results Micro Needling Collagen Induction Therapy is best delivered as a course of 4-6 treatments being received at 4-6 week intervals.RC

Do you feel like acne is your worst enemy? … like it seems to have no mercy. This frustrating condition puts a mountain of strain on emotions and lowers ones self esteem. It certainly brings about its highs and lows. It builds up your hopes when pimples and pustules start to fade. And then boom theres a party happening on your face and you just want to turn out the lights. Its a guessing game as to what it could be that keeps causing these inflamed eruptions to keep appearing out of nowhere on your beautiful face.
I feel the need to share this little bit of information with you because I have treated so many people of all ages fighting the acne battle. I learned to perform manual lymphatic drainage massage during my training, and remember our educators emphasising how closely related the lymphatic system works with the healthy functioning of our skin. Its always been my first treatment choice. I suggest it to all clients who present with acne symptoms because its a very soothing, gentle approach to a skin in need of nurturing.., and the results are always remarkable.
Your Lymphatic System
Your lymphatic system is an important part of your immune system because it is responsible for eliminating toxins and waste products from your body. Lymph fluid circulates the body fighting infection. The lymph nodes filter the fluid trapping bacteria and viruses whilst specialised white blood cells destroy them. If the lymph fluid is sluggish and becomes stagnant, toxic waste builds up causing blockages in the lymph nodes, interfering with the filtration process. This build up of toxic fluids can cause acne and inflammation.
Unlike the cardiovascular system, the lymphatic system doesn’t have a heartbeat to keep the lymph fluid flowing. Instead it relies on the mechanics of the body. Exercise, deep breathing techniques and fluid consumption to help eliminate the collected waste. If you are suffering with consistent acne breakouts, dark circles under the eyes and /or puffy eyes, you might very well have a compromised lymphatic system.
Lymphatic Facial Massage Hunter Valley
The Lymphatic Facial Massage is super powerful in positively motivating the lymphatic drainage process to help detox your body and clarify your skin. This specialised gentle massage technique drains away stagnant waste. The new activity taking place under the skin results in the deliverance of fresh nutrients and oxygen to the cells.
With regular treatment, the acne congestion and inflammation can be dramatically reduced, resulting in a healthy glowing skin.
Ruth Crawley Beauty offers affordable Acne Treatments such as Lymphatic Drainage Facial, Microdermabrasion, LED, IPL, Ultrasound Therapy and Skin Needling from her Heddon Greta Beauty Salon located a short trip for those based in the Hunter Valley or Maitland regions.

Ruth Crawley Beauty offers a variety of beauty treatments to rejuvenate your skin. One of the many treatments is Collagen Induction Therapy also known as Micro Skin Needling or Microneedling. This treatment is a safe and chemical-free method to trigger new collagen production.
The process consists of using tiny shallow needles to puncture the outer layer of skin to create a controlled skin injury. This micro trauma to the skin then stimulates your body to produce new collagen and elastin.
The freshly produced collagen rejuvenates the skin filling in lines and resulting in an overall improvement in the appearance, texture and tightness removing the wrinkles, scars and stretch marks.
So whether you’re looking for treatment for:
- Wrinkles
- Stretch marks
- Scars- Post Surgical/ Trauma
- Acne scarring
- Skin tone
- Fine lines
- Loose skin
- Large pores
