Given that she did give blood at the spa, it would be safe to assume that Kardashian’s latest experience included stem cell therapy — the procedure of extracting stem cells from the patient’s blood and then re-injecting the fluid into their face for smoother, more hydrated skin. According to experts, Kim Kardashian may also have indulged in a quick micro-needling session for that trademark superstar glow she’s always acing.
While many may love to step into a Kardashian’s shoes for a day, one doesn’t need to fly all the way to Korea for that coveted glass skin. Dubai, home to some of the world’s most popular aesthetics hot spots, offer the very same treatments just minutes away from your residence. Here are three worth checking out.
Aesthetics by King’s College Hospital London, Dubai
If there’s one spot that covers the A to Z of aesthetics in the city, it’s got to be Aesthetics by King’s College. Located in Marina, the clinic offers the latest in regenerative medicine to offer up some of the best stem cell treatments in the UAE. The procedures always follow Dubai’s healthcare regulations to ensure the patient’s safety while also delivering great results. Expect to see decreased inflammation, better skin elasticity and improved texture.
Avoria Aesthetic Clinic
Tucked away in Dubai’s Al Barsha neighbourhood, Avoria Aesthetic Clinic is a hidden gem for skincare buffs. Ideal for those who have just begun to notice signs of aging (think fine lines, wrinkles and dullness), Avoria’s stem cell facial rejuvenates and restores youthful volume. While the process (from extraction to isolating stem cells and re-injecting) takes two hours, the results take shape after regular visits over 12-18 months. The journey may seem slow, but when done correctly, Avoria’s stem cell therapy can knock 8-10 years off a patient’s face.
Skin111
At Skin111, stem cell therapy gets a major upgrade with IV options. The clinic promises a higher concentration of stem cells per procedure, hitting up to 200 million cells for maximum results. In this particular case, the stem cells are sourced directly from a facility approved by the UAE DHA and MOH, the injected into the body via an intravenous infusion machine to target diseased tissues and damaged organs. Carried out solely by medical professionals with two decades of experience, this particular form of stem cell therapy targets not just one’s skin, but the rest of the body too. Not sure about making the journey? Skin111 offers patients the option of home visits — doesn’t get more Kardashian than that.
