Top trends in minimally invasive cosmetic procedures
- Smoothing and plumping facial lines and wrinkles: the most popular options for smoothing the facial lines and wrinkles are botox Exeter and dermal fillers. Botox paralyses the muscles which results in smoothing the surface skin while the dermal fillers fills and plump skin, stimulates natural production of collagen and replenishes lost volume to give natural and stunning results. The combination of botox Exeter and dermal fillers give a refreshed and youthful face that looks naturally young and fuller.
- Microdermabrasion: improving the conditions of ski makes a big difference in giving a younger facial appearance. Microdermabrasion procedure involves exfoliation of upper skin layers to reveal fresh and smooth skin with improved skin texture and tone.
- Chemical skin peels: these are the popular treatment for skin rejuvenation. The chemical skin peels use Beta or Alpha Hydroxy Acids to peel off or exfoliate the upper layers of skin which expose fresh and rejuvenated skin. The dead and damaged skin layer peels off from the surface in few days following the skin peel treatment. The chemical peels are a quick way to treat multiple skin issues including pigmentation, lines and wrinkles, dark or age spots, acne, acne scars and sun damage.
- Lasers/IPL: Intense Pulse Light (IPL) devices have become a popular option for skin rejuvenation due to their instant and safe results. This non-invasive cosmetic treatment can be used for treating several skin conditions such as forms of hyperpigmentation, acne scars, sun damage and stretch marks.
- Thermage and Ulthera for skin tightening: These treatments are designed to tighten the loose skin. These treatments stimulate collagen production within skin which tightens and firms the skin. In Ulthera ultrasound technology is utilised which reaches deep within the skin while Thermage utilises Capacitative Radiofrequency to penetrate deeper into skin layers. The results can be seen in few treatment sessions.
