PREVENTING THE SIGNS OF AGEING
By SDS Rejuvenate
The past decade has witnessed a significant global increase in the use of minimally invasive cosmetic techniques for aesthetics and rejuvenation . Skin health is indeed considered one of the principal factors indicating overall wellbeing in humans . The skin is altered with ageing due to the loss of elasticity and the appearance of expression lines and later wrinkles . In this article I will explore and introduce many of the minimally invasive techniques for age prevention and reversal .
Prevention is better than cure The success of cosmetic procedures depends on establishing facial harmony and preventing or correcting ageing aspects . This should be performed with the aim of achieving a natural look and not to radically change a person ’ s appearance . Minimally invasive modalities such as neurotoxin , fillers , and resurfacing treatments , are being chosen thanks to their rapid satisfactory aesthetic outcomes and relatively favourable safety profile . The resort to topical skincare and lifestyle modifications , including proper nutrition and regular exercise , are also key factors to maintain proper skin health and to age gracefully . With the successful integration of many of these modalities , a complete facial rejuvenation regimen can be established to ensure patients ’ goals and maximise satisfaction .
Neurotoxins Botulinum toxin type A injections are one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures for the treatment of facial wrinkles . Wrinkles are formed due to repetitive contraction of the underlying facial muscles and by injecting small quantities of neurotoxin into specific overactive muscles the localised muscles relax and hence smooth the overlying skin and reduce wrinkles .
Dermal fillers containing hyaluronic acid are used to restore volume and achieve balanced facial contouring . The " 8 point face lift : and “ the Y lift ” have become synonymous when describing how dermal fillers can be used to restore youthful facial contours by replenishing lost volume . These treatments result in an amazing 3-dimensional rejuvenation of the face .
Skin peels or resurfacers contain varied strengths of acids and are popular as a means of exfoliating the superficial epidermis and correcting superficial skin damage . Peels are excellent for treating acne , acne scaring , pigmentation and enlarged pores . Many people are wary of skin peels as they assume one needs considerable downtime , but this is not necessarily true , and a peel to fit your needs can be arranged after a full consultation .
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment with effective results . It creates thousands of microchannels to allow tailored solutions to pass through the outer layer of the skin to the dermis which stimulate cell repair , production of new collagen and elastin . It can reduce pore size , improve acne scarring , increase firmness , and brighten skin . This is often combined with LED light therapy ( Dermalux ) and a course of 4 is recommended .
Laser skin tightening treatments , such as Fotona 4D facelift and Tight sculpting , work wonders on one ’ s face by restoring the lost collagen and help in turning back the clock . Laser skin tightening is a painless procedure that helps to enhance sagging skin by giving it new life . It helps to reduce fine lines and undo damage caused by the sun . A targeted laser beam is used in order to heat soft tissue . This helps in jumpstarting the healing process of a patient ’ s body and the body starts producing more collagen . This results in tighter and firmer skin . The most common areas that can benefit from this laser skin tightening procedure are the arms , neck , eyes , abdomen , and jaw line .
Medical-grade skincare can be used by anyone who wants to achieve dramatic aesthetic results , whether that is the improvement of the appearance of a skin concern or a healthy , radiant complexion . Medical grade skincare is formulated by highly experienced physicians , biochemists and chemical engineers to target skin conditions and restore skin health in a major way . This means they pack a punch and results can be achieved super quickly . The activity that medical grade skincare can generate in the skin means it must be purchased under the professional care of a skincare expert , who will ensure you ’ re using the right products in the right way . With a personalised medical skincare routine , you may notice results in as little as 6 to 8 weeks .
