SKIN CONCERNS TREATED
What Tixel Treats
Pigmentation & Melasma
Sun damage, pigmentation and melasma treated with lower risk of complications compared to many laser alternatives.
Redness & Rosacea
Couperose, redness and rosacea managed through gentle, non-laser thermal energy with short recovery time.
Skin Ageing & Wrinkles
Fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores and loss of skin texture - including the periorbital (eyelid) area where many lasers cannot be used.
Scarring
Acne scars, surgical scars and trauma scars improved through controlled thermal stimulation of the skin's natural repair process.
Delicate Areas
Eyelid rejuvenation, periorbital lines and delicate facial zones treated safely - where most laser devices cannot be used.

The Technology
How Tixel Works
The treatment feels like a warm, prickling sensation. Most clients describe it as comfortable. Here’s what’s happening beneath the surface.
Tixel uses Thermo-Mechanical Action (TMA) to rejuvenate the skin. A medical grade titanium tip is heated to around 400°C and briefly touches the skin for just milliseconds, transferring controlled thermal energy into the upper layers.
This creates tiny microthermal zones and microscopic channels, triggering the skin's natural regenerative processes.
Titanium tip contacts skin for 5–18 milliseconds
Controlled thermal zones created in upper skin layers
Collagen and elastin production activated
Active serums penetrate further post-treatment
AFTERCARE
Minimal Downtime
Tixel 2 offers a remarkably gentle healing process. Most clients experience 24-72 hours of mild redness and a slight "sunburnt" feeling. Your skin's natural barrier remains largely intact, allowing for a swift return to your daily routine without sacrificing clinical efficacy.
24-72 Hour recovery
Makeup ready in 48h

One shared vision
The Tamar Story
Tammy Lloyd and Mariza Case first met in their twenties while teaching skin care together at a private college in Cape Town. From the beginning they shared a passion for skin health and for helping others feel confident in their own skin.
Over the last 30 years their careers have taken them in different directions, each building extensive experience, knowledge and perspective within the aesthetics industry. Although their paths diverged, the connection and shared vision for skin care never disappeared.
Years later, the timing was finally right for them to work together again. Tamar Advanced Aesthetics was born from that reunion - a place where their combined experience, both nationally and internationally, could be brought together for the benefit of their clients.
Today Tammy and Mariza focus on carefully chosen, advanced treatments that truly support each client’s individual skin journey.
