Ageing Skin
Timeless Beauty: Transforming Ageing Skin at Rejuva Medispa & Laser
Understanding Ageing Skin
Ageing skin is a complex and natural process characterized by a multitude of changes that affect its structure, appearance, and function. These changes occur at both the superficial and deeper layers of the skin, leading to visible signs that are unique to each individual. Let's explore the key aspects of ageing skin:
Fine Lines and Wrinkles:
- Expression Lines: Over time, repeated facial expressions, such as smiling or frowning, contribute to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles, particularly around the eyes (crow's feet), mouth, and forehead.
- Dynamic vs. Static Wrinkles: Dynamic wrinkles appear during facial movements, while static wrinkles are present even at rest, indicating a loss of skin elasticity.
Loss of Elasticity:
- Collagen and Elastin: Collagen and elastin are essential proteins that provide structure and elasticity to the skin. Ageing leads to a decline in their production, resulting in sagging, laxity, and a loss of skin firmness.
- Decreased Skin Resilience: Reduced elasticity makes the skin more susceptible to gravitational forces, contributing to the formation of jowls and a less defined jawline.
Uneven Skin Tone:
- Sun Damage: Prolonged sun exposure accelerates the breakdown of collagen and elastin, leading to uneven pigmentation, sunspots, and an overall dull complexion.
- Hyperpigmentation: Age spots, melasma, and other forms of hyperpigmentation become more prominent due to cumulative sun exposure and hormonal changes.
Volume Loss:
- Fat and Bone Density: Ageing involves a natural reduction in subcutaneous fat and bone density, resulting in the appearance of hollowed or sunken areas, particularly in the cheeks and temples.
- Loss of Facial Fullness: Reduced fat volume contributes to a flatter and less youthful facial contour.
Environmental Influences:
- Lifestyle Choices: Factors such as smoking, poor nutrition, and inadequate hydration can accelerate skin ageing.
- Free Radical Damage: Exposure to environmental pollutants and free radicals contributes to oxidative stress, impacting skin health.
Genetic Factors:
- Inherent Aging Process: Genetic predispositions influence the rate and manner in which the skin ages. Individuals may experience different ageing trajectories based on their genetic makeup.
Revolutionary Laser Treatments and Beyond
Our holistic approach combines state-of-the-art laser treatments with the use of Botox and injectable dermal fillers, providing a versatile and effective solution for comprehensive skin rejuvenation:
01
Collagen Stimulation with Lasers
Laser therapy stimulates collagen production, a fundamental protein for skin structure and firmness, promoting a natural, youthful radiance.
02
Fine Line and Wrinkle Reduction
Precision laser technology targets fine lines and wrinkles, complemented by the use of Botox to relax facial muscles and smooth expression lines.
03
Skin Tightening
Laser treatments help tighten and firm loose or sagging skin, while injectable dermal fillers restore volume and contour, creating a lifted and toned appearance.
04
Addressing Volume Loss
Injectable dermal fillers are used to address volume loss in specific areas, such as the cheeks or lips, restoring youthful fullness and contours.
05
Hyperpigmentation and Age Spots
Laser therapy tackles age-related pigmentation concerns, while dermal fillers can improve skin texture and tone, reducing the appearance of sunspots.
