Eventually we all hit an age where our skin doesn't look or feel like it did 10 years ago. It's at this time when people turn to Face the Future for advice. For patients looking to improve their appearance and changing skin, we offer completely bespoke and tailored recommendations.
For some, just a simple change in a skincare routine is needed and the introduction of a few key active ingredients. Products containing
Vitamins A and C are essential for achieving a fresh and rejuvenated appearance.For others patients, a little clinical intervention may be required in the form of treatments.
Aesthetic treatments are becoming a popular alternative to surgery due to the option of tailor made programmes available to 'wake up' skin with a natural and graceful outcome.The key areas of concern with age management are
fine lines and wrinkles commonly placed above the top lip and around the eyes.
A loss of volume and
sagging skin due to decreased elasticity and
skin texture is another common complaint.With many of these concerns, injectable treatments such as Botox and filler are thought of as the 'quick fix' solution. In some cases they are required, however there are many other alternatives if you're a little shy of the needle!In clinic, we don't always look at Botox and fillers as the first solution and pride ourselves on the number of alternative treatments we offer to help your skin boost its natural collagen and elastin production.Whether it's sagging skin, fine lines or wrinkles we have compiled a list of our most popular non-surgical solutions. Here is a breakdown of our top favourites in clinic this month
Best for: tightening and sculptingWe recommend patients a course of
6 treatments over an
8-week timeframe. The treatment is ideal for lax skin in the
cheek,
jowl and
neck area as well as around the eyes. It works by delivering controlled and focused radio frequency to stimulate the cells and encourage the production of collagen. The benefits of this treatment are non-invasive tightening and lifting without having to go under the knife.
Best for: Deep wrinkles and scarringThis combined treatment of
radio frequency and medical needling is fantastic at targeting tired and ageing skin. Areas of deep wrinkles and scars on face can be effectively treated to repair and even out damaged skin texture.With needling treatments improvement can be seen over
6-12 weeks as the body's production of collagen takes effect and new skin is created.A course of treatments may be necessary depending on the severity of the condition. However, minimal downtime is needed with no more than a day or two of redness.
Best for: wrinkles in hard to treat areas like eyes & top lipThis treatment is similar to the
EndyMed Intensif, however it is recommended to target the hard to treat areas of
fine lines closes to the eye and above the
top lip. It is a great method for resurfacing
crêpey skin tissue and
promoting tightening of tissue as well as a
reduction in fine lines.
Best for: ageing neck & décolletageNew to clinic this year, the
PRX-T33 is receiving rave reviews with our patients.This new technique offers
bio-rejuvenation to improve the appearance of
facial lines and wrinkles on the neck. The initial peel includes two aftercare products that are used to help aid the process of the new 'no-peel peel' and with
little downtime. Clients are seeing
dramatic results after the first peel and continued improvement with following peels.For more information about age management treatments or to book your
