ANTI - AGEING SERVICES
Aesthetic Treatment means a treatment for the restoration of beauty. Over the past few years, the art and science of cosmetic dermatology has evolved enabling dermatologists to more precisely treat the signs of facial ageing.
In a broad sense, wrinkles may develop as
- Hyperdynamic lines (dynamic wrinkles) or
- Static lines (static wrinkles)
There are a number of factors which may lead to permature ageing in an
Individual. Some of them are:
a. Long term exposure to ultraviolet light - this could be the natural as well as the artificial source of light such as day-light lamps, long hours of computer use.
b. Loss of subcutaneous fat.
c. Years of facial expressions constantly fold the skin, resulting in hyperdynamic wrinkles (such as laugh lines, crow's feet, frown lines etc.)
d.Gravitational effect.
e. Lifestyle such as smoking, alcohol, stress ,lack of exercise etc.
We treat the dynamic wrinkles with Botulinum toxin injections (BOTOX or NEURONOX).
Over a period of years, the dynamic wrinkles ultimately remain as wrinkles at rest or static wrinkles. This is redundant skin which develops as the skin progressively loses its elasticity and submits to the relentless pull of gravity.
There are different types of fillers that are now available to treat these lines and grooves such as:
a. Nasolabial crease
b. Perioral lines
c. Smile lines
d. Lip enhancement
e. Cheek augmentation
f. Tear trough
These fillers are specially designed and injected to rejuvenate the skin, fill out folds and wrinkles, improve the contours of the skin and create volume.
Another popular treatment in our clinic is “Skin booster” or “skin quality injectables”. Skin Boosters are micro-injections of hyaluronic acid injected in the skin. Hyaluronic acid is a natural moisturising factor that has the ability to draw 1000 times its own weight in water and retain the water molecules within itself. This ensures deep and natural hydration of the skin from within.
Skin boosters are injected in the papillary dermis where they activate the fibroblast cells. This fibroblast stimulation promotes new collagen and elastin formation, which in turn results is smooth, plump, glowing and healthy-looking skin. You can have this skin rejuvenation treatment on your face, neck, decollate and hands for improved hydration, texture and glow. Skin boosters use hyaluronic acid that is clinically proven to stimulate collagen and increase elastin that reduces due to ageing and environmental damage. With the production of new collagen and elastin, you get firm and youthful skin. Fine lines, pores and wrinkles are visibly reduced within weeks of your session.
Skin booster injections also change the way light bounces off your skin. This gives you an even tone complexion and reduces skin pigmentation. Thus, skin boosters are a complete skin rejuvenating treatment that reduces fine lines, improves skin tone, hydrates the skin and makes the skin look fresh and glowing. It is suitable for all skin types.
