If you see unwanted signs of age when you look in the mirror instead of your young and attractive self, it might be time to think about facial rejuvenation in Tri-Cities. Whether it’s frown lines, sunken cheeks, loose skin or crow’s feet, or all of the above, many wonder if it’s possible to reverse time and see their smoother, more youthful, and fresh face. With the treatments facial rejuvenation provides, it certainly can be.
Facial rejuvenation can include any cosmetic treatment designed to renew the skin’s surface and address several skin concerns. For the most part, facial rejuvenation targets wrinkles, dark spots, scarring, and loose skin. A rejuvenation treatment boosts the body’s natural ability to regenerate skin and create new cells. The treatment refreshes the overall appearance of your face, reducing wrinkles, fading dark spots and scars, and tightening the skin. This helps to restore the youthful appearance you’re looking for.
Facial rejuvenation procedures can vary in invasiveness and depth of treatment. Some treatments focus on parts of the face, while total facial rejuvenation targets multiple areas to achieve a natural-looking, refreshed result. Many facial rejuvenation procedures include microneedling and RF microneedling, skin tightening, or PDO thread lifts.
Microneedling uses very tiny needles to cause controlled micro-injuries to the skin. This triggers your skin to produce collagen and elastin, the building blocks of new, fresh skin. Microneedling also allows topical treatments applied to the skin to be more effectively absorbed. Microneedling reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and produces younger-looking skin, minimizing acne scars and any other scarring, age spots, and stretch marks.
The overall effect is fresher, more glowing skin and a revitalized face. There’s no downtime required after microneedling, and you’ll see some of the positive effects within a couple of days. However, the most dramatic results will not be visible until four to six weeks after treatment, once your body produces fresh collagen and completes rebuilding the skin.
Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling is a combination treatment for your skin. RF can have a strong skin tightening benefit. The microneedling technique creates many micro incisions; then, the RF delivers thermal energy deep within the skin tissue. This stimulates collagen but causes no damage to the surrounding tissue. RF is delivered in multiple passes at varying depths, providing a three-dimensional coverage over the face, lifting and tightening the skin from within.
RF microneedling is a cutting-edge advancement in tightening skin and reducing wrinkles. Like typical microneedling, there is no downtime. You’ll see results within a few days, but the real results come as your body begins to produce collagen. The tightening effect and final results appear gradually over six months, as your skin starts looking more and more youthful as time passes and wrinkles continue to diminish.
Sagging, droopy skin is often a number one concern for targeting areas to improve for facial rejuvenations in Tri-Cities.
Skin tightening treatments can heal old and weak skin fibers by stimulating the production of elastin and collagen. Synergy MedAesthetics uses the state-of-the-art Elixis Ultra™ laser device to provide skin tightening.
Elixis Ultra™ is a non-invasive, handheld device that delivers radiofrequency and ultrasound to tighten the skin by heating the deep layers to stimulate collagen production and shrinking fat cells. It also acts as a skin tightening facial. This treatment is similar to a mini-facelift, minus the surgery.
There is no downtime required after a skin tightening treatment, and it’s safe for all skin types. After the treatment, for a few days, you’ll notice your skin has fewer lines and folds, looking younger and more supple than ever before.
A PDO thread lift is a minimally invasive alternative to facelift surgery, designed to rejuvenate and lift sagging skin. PDO threads, or dissolvable sutures, are used in this procedure to rejuvenate and lift sagging skin. The procedure takes only about half an hour, and there is no downtime necessary. During treatment, you will receive a local anesthetic, and then the PDO threads are inserted.
These threads act as anchors as the skin is lifted upwards. Then, the excess threads are cut off. A PDO thread lift mechanically results in instant skin lifting. It also contracts fat tissue and promotes collagen production, which renews your skin at the cellular level. Your face is instantly lifted and tightened, resulting in a finer skin texture, fewer lines and wrinkles, and a refreshed, revitalized more youthful appearance
