Skin is not only a teller of your age but it is also reflective of your overall health. This is why many men and women are keen on getting their skin “fixed”. Skin tightening, skin brightening, and removal of pigmentation or dark spots are the most popular and sought-after treatments. A complete facelift to defy the signs of aging has long been in demand. A surgical facelift is invassive, painful, and has a long recovery time. Most people working in the world of glamour or any other field of life can not afford to disappear from work for such a long downtime.
Modern aesthetic science is focused on meeting the need of busy clients, and their fast and active lifestyles. Many high-profile clients favor noninvasive treatments over surgical procedures. Most men and women from the showbiz now prefer a quick fix that requires minimal aftercare. Subtle and gradual enhancements are preferred over drastic transformations. This is why nonsurgical procedures that require little to no downtime are now in demand more than ever.
Here is a list of Frequently Asked Questions about Nonsurgical Skin Rejuvenation
Popular nonsurgical facelift options available at Pinnacle Figure, Johor Bahru are discussed below:
Laser Treatment
Now lasers are used not only for removing hyperpigmentation or dark circles around the eyes but also to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This approach requires several follow-up sessions to achieve desired results, but it is safe, non-invasive, and painless for the most part. It also has minimal downtime.
Frequency Treatment
In this category, we have radiofrequency treatment options or ultrasound waves. RF therapy uses radio waves that penetrate the skin, heat up the inner layers, and stimulate the natural rejuvenation process by triggering the production of collagen. HIFU uses high-intensity ultrasound waves to penetrate deeper into the skin layers, while ultherapy uses micro-focused ultrasound waves. You can choose the best treatment option depending upon your current sin condition and required results after consulting with your doctor.
A relatively cheaper alternative is available in the market, sold under the name of “at-home light therapy” but it is not a clinic-grade technique. As this technique is relatively new, the promised results are not tested on a large enough sample size to be verified.
Injectables
Botox and derma fillers are the most popular anti-aging treatments. While botox prevents skin folds and wrinkles, dermal fillers lift up the sagging skin by placing the “filler” under the skin. These treatments are not permenant fixes and require follow-ups to maintain the results.
Thread lifts
This is a minimally invasive facelift option that is sometimes also referred to as “one stitch facelift”. In this treatment, option doctor uses very fine needles and different types of threads and techniques to place surgical thread under the skin to tighten up the loose skin and lift the sagging tissues. The threads used can have hooks, barbs, or cones to enhance the results. The procedure is performed after locally numbing the focused area for minimum pain, later discomfort is managed via painkillers. Physicianmay also prescribe antibiotics to avoid any infection. The downtime and after-care required are minimal. Results are visible immediately, and the complete result is obvious in 3 to 4 weeks. Stitches used are always biodegradable, so the effect of treatment starts wearing off after three to four months.
