3- Dimensional Facial Rejuvenation
The popularity of non-surgical cosmetic medical procedures continues, as new products and techniques are developed. Nowadays people lead very busy lifestyles. They want to look good, but they can’t afford the time off work that accompanies the more invasive surgical procedures. The talk is about preventing the effects of aging on the skin rather than letting the aged appearance become so advanced that the only option is an invasive procedure. In the current financial climate, the considerably smaller price tag on cosmetic medical procedures as opposed to more extensive cosmetic surgery may also play a role in the popularity of the non-surgical options. However, recent statistics suggest that the number of “nips and tucks” have been declining well before the global financial crisis. In my experience, patients are becoming more familiar with the non-surgical procedures, the cosmetic injectable products themselves are improving over time, and medical professionals are becoming more adept at using these products and putting them to new uses in the aging face.
The emphasis is on “Combination Treatments”- that is, using a variety of non-surgical cosmetic procedures together to obtain superior results. At Cosmetique Solutions , I use this philosophy to rejuvenate the skin “three-dimensionally” The Cosmetique Skin Rejuvenation Programme combines three separate modalities to improve the skin. The Refirme’ Skin Tightening device uses combined radiofrequency and infrared light to heat and tighten the lower level of the skin by remodeling the dermal collagen. The second part of the programme employs the Ellipse Flex IPL device to treat abnormal pigmentation and blood vessels in the upper layers of the skin. The third dimension incorporates dual crystal microdermabrasion to treat the very surface, ridding the skin of dead surface skin cells, and unblocking and refining pores. Once the clarity and texture of the skin is improved with this 3-Dimensional approach, combinations of other non-surgical treatments can be used to address other features of a tired-looking or aging face. Various dermal fillers are used to enhance youthful contours of the face, replenish lost volume and definition in lips and treat facial wrinkles. Techniques which employ the popular muscle relaxant injectables can achieve a subtle brow lift or Nefertiti lift for the jawline.
Each treatment alone has its own merits, however, use a combination of treatments and the rejuvenating effect on the face is superior. I really want to see my patients get the best results possible so I offer packages of combined treatments that are more cost-effective for people than doing a series of separate treatments. If you would like me to discuss a combination of treatments to best suit you, then please contact Cosmetique Solutions on 55 755 644.
