The Introfill Auto-Injector

The Introfill Auto-Injector has revolutionized the way we administer rejuvenating injectables across the face, decollate, hands & head. This doesn’t replace the skill of a Plastic Surgeon to inject filler or Botox into specific areas of need but does make it a whole lot simpler for aestheticians to ensure even delivery of plasma or product to the correct level within the skin.


We currently use this device for the delivery of Skin Boosters (hyaluronic acid), PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and hair growth stimulators. The delivery into the skin is unmatched and the benefits multiply as the process of needling the skin also stimulates collagen production and hair growth.

Spring - what's new?

Date: 03/09/19

Author: Ingrid Katz (Pure Aesthetics)

A change of season means a change in air and climate. This often translates to skin changes as well and so we feel it is the best time to boost the skin with treatments and/or homecare serum options to help the skin through these changes.

Winter Skin Woes

Date: 10/07/19

Author: Ingrid Katz (Pure Aesthetics)

With winter firmly upon us we have seen a lot of clients suffering from the harsh environmental side effects.  Gauteng and in particular, Johannesburg, experiences a harsh lack of moisture in the air at this time of the year.  Alongside this, most of us heat our homes and cars with fires and heaters which further exacerbate the dehydration of our skins.  This leads to a few a very relevant skin conditions for this time of the year, namely: redness, sensitivity, roughness and feeling of dryness or dehydration.
