Anti-Ageing

HIFU (Anti-ageing)

HIFU stands for high-intensity focused ultrasound. It is an FDA-approved non-surgical treatment that uses ultrasound energy to combat the effects of ageing and gravity on your skin. It uses the body’s natural healing response to lift the skin and smooth lines and wrinkles.  It targets the deep layers of the skin, thereby boosting collagen and elastin production.

What Can HIFU Treat?

HIFU can non-invasively lift and tighten the skin on the face and neck, including the eyebrows and beneath the chin. It can also address lines and wrinkles on the chest, neck, shoulders and back.

When Will I See My Results?

After the treatment, some patients may be able to see initial effects immediately. However, the real results truly start becoming visible over the next two to three months. The reason behind this is the new collagen only begins to lift and tighten the skin on the treated area at this period in time. This is the case regardless of whether the treated skin is on the neck, chin, brow or chest.

With HIFU, facelift-like results might not be exactly duplicated. However, it is the best alternative for those who are uneasy with invasive procedures. It can also serve as a supplement to extend the aesthetic effects of cosmetic surgery.

FAQs

1. Is HIFU treatment safe ?

High intensity Ultrasound energy is time-tested and has been safely used for more than 50 years. 

2. What does the treatment feel like ?

As the ultrasound energy is delivered, you will feel tiny amounts of energy being deposited to precise depths, indicating that the collagen-building process has been initiated. Comfort levels vary from person to person, but the heating sensation only lasts while the ultrasound energy is being delivered and is an indication that the procedure is working.

3. Are there any side effects ?

Your skin may experience temporary redness, swelling and tenderness for a few hours after HIFU. Rare but possible side effects include numbness and bruising that are also temporary. 

BOTOX (Anti-ageing)

Cheat the ageing process and start feeling confident in your skin!

The appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on a face is a natural sign of getting wiser. But they are also considered one of the apparent symptoms of getting older. Botox Injections or Treatment is a popular cosmetic procedure performed worldwide to reverse the signs of ageing. It is extremely effective in treating all areas of the face including crow’s feet, forehead lines, frown lines and the gummy smile to reduce the signs of ageing or to balance facial proportions. 

WHAT CAUSES THE TELL-TALE SIGNS OF AGEING?

As we age, collagen that is found naturally in the skin begins to deplete. This along with environmental factors such as free radicals and sun exposure causes the skin to lose elasticity and this results in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Genetics, diet and lifestyle factors (alcohol, stress, smoking) can also impact the speed in which this process occurs.

The muscles in the face naturally contract and expand to form expressions, and while it’s a completely natural process, it is one that will cause frown lines and crow’s feet to develop over time. For instance, continuous frowning and raising of the eyebrows can cause lines to develop in between the two brows, whilst squirting and laughing causes the muscles around the eyes to contract, resulting in what you may know to be called crow’s feet.

By saying that Botox only treats wrinkles doesn’t mean that’s the end of the story. This injection is proven effective in treating numerous medical conditions as well.

• Concealing gummy smile

FAQS

1. What are the possible side effects?

Anti-wrinkle injections, if administered correctly, is a very safe procedure. There is however a very small risk of associated complications, as with any medical treatment. Common side effects of injectables include swelling, slight discomfort, bruising, lumpiness, or unevenness.

2. Will my face look unnatural after the Botox treatment

Contrary to popular belief, the Botox treatment does not cause an unnatural appearance when done by an experienced Doctor. This treatment aims to improve your facial aesthetics, so your doctor injects a diluted and weakened dose of the botulinum toxin that does not affect your natural expressions.

3. Will I lose any sensation on my face?

You will not lose any sensation on your face after a Botox treatment.

4. How long do Botox results last?

You can expect to see a smoothing of fine lines within a few hours of the treatment, with effects for deeper wrinkles becoming noticeable within 24 to 48 hours later. Results will last up to 6 months.
