Anti ageing treatments in london can reduce wrinkles, tighten the skin and even out skin tone. They can also help with fat dissolving injection surrey, which targets those stubborn pockets of fat that will not respond to diet or exercise.
Anti-wrinkle injections work by blocking the nerve impulses that cause muscles to contract and create lines and wrinkles. They are safe and extremely effective.
Dermal Fillers
Many people notice that their facial skin loses its plumpness as they age, giving them a more tired appearance. Dermal fillers are an effective way to combat this symptom of aging by adding volume to the face where fat loss has occurred. They can be used to smooth out smile lines, crows feet, or other wrinkles, add fullness to thin lips, and reshape the face.
The treatment consists of a series of tiny injections with a gel-like substance such as hyaluronic acid. The injections are usually painless, requiring little or no downtime and producing instant results.
The practitioner will apply an anaesthetic cream before the procedure to numb the area. Then, the gel will be injected into the treatment area with a needle or an injection device. The filler will fill the targeted areas to reshape or reduce lines and wrinkles, improve the cheekbones, and enhance the jawline and chin. Fillers can also help to diminish the appearance of scars by softening their texture and eliminating indentations.
Profhilo
Profhilo is a revolutionary injectable ‘liquid skincare’ that can turn back the clock on ageing skin. It uses a high concentration of stable and thermally bonded hyaluronic acid to transform your skin’s architecture from within. Profhilo is injected into the dermis (main, thick layer of your skin) and stimulates four different types of collagen and elastin to produce a ‘bioremodelling’ effect.
As we age natural levels of hyaluronic acid and collagen decrease, which causes the tell-tale signs of ageing such as fine lines, wrinkles and dull skin. Profhilo works to reverse these effects and is great for anyone over the age of 30.
It is injected using a special technique called the bio-aesthetic point (BAP) system, which involves a sequence of injection points along the face, developed using CT scans to produce the best results and is relatively painless. The injections are usually well tolerated, but you may experience redness and slight bruising at the treatment site.
Ultherapy
This unique treatment stimulates the production of natural collagen, tightening and lifting the skin. This is done through a non-invasive ultrasound procedure that doesn’t involve any cutting of the skin or other invasive procedures. Unlike other injectable wrinkle treatments that can migrate slightly from their injection site, the ultrasound technology used in this treatment is very precise and only affects the areas targeted.
On the day of your treatment, you’ll need to gently wash the area of the face that will be treated and take Ibuprofen if you’re concerned about discomfort. After that, your practitioner will apply a soothing gel to the target area and glide the smooth treatment applicator across your skin.
The treatment will last 60-90 minutes depending on your specific needs. You’ll start to see an initial effect right after the treatment as the body begins producing new collagen, but the ultimate results will take place over the following 3 to 6 months.
IPL Photorejuvenation
IPL Photofacial is a light-based treatment that helps fade spots and wrinkles without damaging the top layer of skin. It is safe, easy to perform and requires little downtime. It can also be used in conjunction with other treatments that require the removal of dead skin cells, such as microdermabrasion and chemical peels.
During the IPL photofacial, a skin specialist uses a hand-held device to deliver pulses of light. The intensity and duration of the pulses are controlled by a computer to ensure that the outer layer of the skin is not damaged. The light also stimulates the production of collagen, which gives the skin a healthy glow and reduces fine lines and wrinkles.
IPL also targets unwanted body hair. The light heats the hair follicles, which causes them to stop producing more hair. The results are permanent and can be seen immediately. The recovery process varies by individual, but most patients experience only minor side effects that resolve quickly.
