All eyes fix on flash fashion, but lush eyes last longer. The 20-year fashion trend cycles of yesteryear are gone. Designers and apparel companies have shortened that to 44 weeks. Skin therapies, when done properly, can last 3 years or more. You will be able to see fashion fade.
Now you and I will scrape the surface of non-surgical, cosmetic skin treatments and therapies in the industry over the next few minutes. The best place to start whether you are interested in laser skin rejuvenation, microneedling, under eye fillers, microdermabrasion, or laser treatments, is to talk to a reputable, board-certified, licensed, and insured dermatologist or surgical team. Get a consultation and skin exam to avoid complications due to preexisting conditions with your health. They will have a wealth of knowledge from experience in performing;
- Microlipoinjection uses excess body fat from your abdomen, thighs, bum, or hips to fill the lower eyelid and upper cheek area. It can easily be changed if you do not achieve the result as the practitioners use your bodily material through tiny needles to smooth the lower-eyelid to upper-cheek area, with long-lasting youthful fullness.
- Restylane and Radiesse are dermal under-eye fillers that increase volume by stimulating collagen growth (SCG). The filler is hyaluronic acid, which is produced in the body. The treatment’s natural fullness effect is quick.
- A scientifically documented vitamin-A concentration called Rentin-A or tretinoin is applied in a crème to SCG.
- IPL treatments or photo facials are a laser skin rejuvenation process using rapid-fire lasers sparkling against your skin to SCG for the natural repair of dark circles, wrinkles, or fine lines.
- Sticking with lasers, let’s pew-pew some fine hair away by shooting light energy at facial hair to degenerate hair follicles and stall future hair growth. In simpler terms, zap the hair away. Obviously not close to your eyes.
- Collagen induction therapy is also known as microneedling. Tiny sterile needles puncture the skin surface to SCG. Collagen must be as lazy as a cat to need all this stimulation.
- Microdermabrasion uses silicate crystals to polish skin, SCG, reduces fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and age spots around the head, neck, and torso but not near the eyes. This is not to be used on skin disorders.
- Polynucleotides stimulate collagen growth with a combination of nucleotide monomers. Plenhyage focuses on natural skin health for a true, pure look. In a similar response to accidentally cutting yourself when cooking, DNA fractions initiate the production of proteins and fibres used in natural skin, connecting cell damage response.
- I won’t take long to tell you about the chemical peel process. Chemical solutions are applied to your skin, removing damaged cells. This is not for use around your eyes but can treat area discolourations, scars, and sunspots.
