Ageing of skin is a complex biological process influenced by a combination of endogenous (intrinsic) and exogenous (extrinsic) factors. A healthy skin is considered as one of the principal factors contributing to overall “well-being”, and several anti-aging strategies are available currently to keep the skin looking young and healthy.
Our skin anti-aging strategies attempt to reverse the dermal and epidermal signs of both photo- and chronological ageing. We provide various in-office procedures that restore the skin of its lost youth by resurfacing the epidermis, removing the damaged tissue and replacing it with remodelled skin along with promoting new collagen formation.
Our Advanced Anti-aging Treatments
Here are some of our latest anti-aging skincare treatments that rejuvenate your skin and replenish its fabulous glow.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels help the skin regenerate and repair the dead layers of the epidermis and dermis. Various organic acids are used to remove skin discolouration, fine wrinkles and gives you a brighter and even skin tone.
It is crucial to protect the underlying smooth, fresh skin post peeling from direct sunlight. Avoidance of direct sun exposure is a must for a few days following procedure and usage of a broad-spectrum sunscreen is mandatory throughout.
Microdermabrasion (Skin Polishing)
Microdermabrasion is a simple technique that exfoliates the skin using a crystal or diamond tipped machine to gently exfoliate the outermost layers of skin making it look radiant, smooth and firm.
Benefits of Chemical Peels:
- Exfoliate and makes skin smooth
- Reduce sun damage and hyperpigmentation
- Removes acne and blemishes
- Softens fine lines
Anti-wrinkle injections (Botox injections)
Botox treatment blocks the action of the muscle and eases fine lines, preventing it from becoming more prominent in future. Muscles beneath the skin are held firmly in place thus preventing wrinkles from developing or worsening.
Most common areas where Botox is frequently administered:
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Frown lines
- Worry lines (forehead creases/ horizontal lines) on the forehead
Dermal Fillers
Dermal Fillers are injectables made from synthetic and natural materials to restore youthful appearance to the skin. With age there is loss of collagen and facial fat causing volume loss and wrinkles. Injecting a dermal filler will help correct this volume deficit and improves the appearance of the skin.
They are most commonly used to
- Correct the under eye hollow
- Augment the lips
- Lift cheeks
- Create a sharp jawline,
- Contour the face.
This non-surgical modality delivers immediate results with the effects lasting upto 1 – 1.5 years. And if one is unhappy with the effect of fillers it can be dissolved as well.
