How to Turn Back the Clock on Aging Without Surgery?
There is no need to go under the nefarious knife to give your face the lifted, sculpted, youthful look you desire.
We get it! Traditional, invasive facelift surgery is not a viable option for everyone who seeks to rejuvenate their facial appearance. And now, thanks to the innovation of modern aesthetic medicine you can finally say “no” to the knife and still get the head-turning, remarkable results that’ll keep them guessing. By using transformative skincare, regularly scheduled, spa-status, organic facials, peels, and minimally invasive cosmetic procedures, as well as radiofrequency (RF) technology, you can turn back the clock. So, step away from the scalpel, the side effects, the stitches, the sutures, the scarring, the cutting, the commitment, and the cost; and say hello to the hottest thing to revolutionize the nonsurgical facelift.
Deciding to undergo the noninvasive facial rejuvenation route takes a bit of strategic planning and commitment in other ways. Not wanting to face the knife is fine, but you’ll need to incorporate other ways to get the results of a traditional face lift without the scalpel.
Skincare
Implementing a high-performance, medical-grade skincare regimen into your daily beauty routine is essential to preparing and conditioning your complexion to “act” younger. Targeted serums, antioxidant and ceramide-rich moisturizers, effective cleansers, and sunscreens are just the beginning basics that will help support your more comprehensive, anti-aging efforts. Seeking the consultation of your DG Aesthetics clinician can help you build and stick to an effective skincare regimen that works for YOUR skin type and addresses YOUR complexion’s unique concerns. For extra skincare credit, begin scheduling facials every month or every 6 weeks to really kick your skincare efforts up a notch.
Injectables – Minimally Invasive Cosmetic Procedures
The advent of in-office, aesthetic procedures, such as Botox® Cosmetic, Jeuveau®, and Dysport® are like a la carte, complexion-correcting services that you can mix-and-match to customize the look and results you’re after. Neurotoxins work to smooth dynamic wrinkles from the face’s expression areas (forehead, between brows, crow’s feet), giving these areas a tightened, smoothed and softened appearance. Fillers, such as Juvederm® and Restylane®, can add plumpness and volume to cheeks and facial folds for a more sculpted, defined look. Some patients may just need neurotoxins, while others may just need fillers. However, patients who are looking to “lift” their face sans surgery will often get a little bit of both – some pricking here and some enhancements there.
Pout Perfection
When looking to lift the face without surgery, it’s important not to forget about your pucker. Thin-skinned lips are one of the first areas to show signs of aging, as a decrease in collagen will result in visibly deflated, vertically “lined” lips. Strategically injected filler in the lips can help restore the youthful plumpness to your pout, contributing to the overall “lifted” look of your face. Some men and women also like to pay their lips some service by getting yearly injections for that little extra, sexy “oomph” that can make all the difference.
Forma® and Morpheus8® by InMode®
Finally, the ultimate finishing touch to achieving your nonsurgical face-lifting endeavors will be in the form of groundbreaking RF energy. The cost, commitment, downtime and recovery to permanent results are high. Not to mention, invasive face lift surgeries result in scarring, stitches, and possible, unwanted side effects.
Forma and Morpheus8 face-lifting treatments are more attractive – and practical – options for most patients. The FDA-approved, Forma nonsurgical facelift uses cutting-edge RF technology to deliver uniform heating to targeted areas of the face and body to visibly smooth wrinkles, while firming laxity and smoothing roughened texture. Morpheus8 combines the power of traditional microneedling with fractionated radiofrequency (RF) technology. Morpheus8 safely heats the subdermal layers of the skin and tissue, working to remodel multiple layers of the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous layers to create a more contoured, sculpted appearance.
Bipolar RF not only boosts skin’s elasticity for a more youthful “bounce,” but stimulates collagen production long after the last treatment has been performed, so patients can enjoy cumulative results overtime! These minimally invasive procedures combine heat or microneedles and RF, encouraging the body’s natural complexion-plumping, “heat shock” proteins. These proteins trick the body into thinking it has been injured, thus stimulating a “healing” response of plumping collagen to the targeted area(s). The result is more lifted and firmer face, neck, and décolletage. While many patients will enjoy noticeable results after just a single treatment, most patients will require at multiple sessions before the most desired results are revealed. Maintenance sessions can be performed every six months to a few years, depending on the patient and their aesthetic aspirations. Complementing these treatments by InMode® with high-performance, targeted skincare is an effective way to prolong face-lifting results and boost anti-aging effects.
