AGEING SKIN

At Aesthetica Medical, we understand that ageing is a natural process everyone goes through. Ageing skin can present various concerns, such as wrinkles, fine lines, loss of volume, and decreased skin elasticity. We are here to help you address these issues effectively.

AGEING SKIN FACTORS

Ageing skin is primarily a result of the natural ageing process, but it can also be influenced by lifestyle factors such as sun exposure, diet, and skincare habits. Over time, our skin loses collagen and elastin, the proteins that keep it firm and elastic, forming wrinkles and sagging skin. Our skin's natural ability to retain moisture decreases, leading to dryness and a dull complexion.

At Aesthetica Medical, we offer a range of treatments that can help address the signs of ageing:

CHEMICAL PEELS

These work by exfoliating the surface of your skin, removing dead skin cells and promoting new cell growth. This process can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and give your skin a smoother, more youthful look. We offer more than one brand of peels which allows us to fine-tune treatments for a greater personalisation. We offer The Perfect Peel and the Obagi Blue Radiance Peel in clinic.

WHY AESTHETICA MEDICAL?

During your consultation at Aesthetica Medical, we will discuss your skin concerns and goals, and together, we will determine the most effective treatment for you based on our extensive knowledge of the treatments and their results. As always, we do not promote one treatment over another but focus on what will work best for your unique skin needs. Our main criteria are always safety and effectiveness.

Common Signs of Ageing Skin

Ageing skin is a natural part of the overall ageing process, characterised by visible changes that may affect one's confidence and self-perception. Some of the signs of ageing skin include fine lines and wrinkles, loss of skin elasticity, dullness, and uneven skin tone. Sun exposure, lifestyle choices, and genetic factors play significant roles in how skin ages. Understanding the root causes behind these signs is the main focus of identifying the most effective treatments.

Preparing for Your Treatment

What to Expect During the Consultation

During the initial consultation, expect a thorough assessment of your skin's condition and a discussion about your aesthetic goals. We will examine the signs of ageing present and may use tools like skin analysis systems to better understand your skin's needs. This is the first step in creating a personalised treatment plan to address your concerns.

How to Prepare for Treatment

Preparing for an ageing skin treatment involves several steps to ensure the best possible outcomes. Depending on the planned treatment, patients are advised to avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanning products for at least two weeks before treatment. Additionally, it's important to inform your practitioner about any medications or supplements you're taking, as some may need to be paused or adjusted. Ensuring your skin is clean, hydrated, and free of any makeup or lotions on the day of the treatment is also essential.

How do I know which ageing skin treatment is right for me?

Choosing the right ageing skin treatment depends on various factors, including skin type, the severity of ageing signs, and personal goals. A consultation with a skilled practitioner is essential to evaluate your skin's condition and recommend the most beneficial treatments. Options may range from topical creams and chemical peels to laser therapy and injectables. The point is that clinics will have various options to offer patients. The more anti-ageing treatments on offer, the more chance you have of an effective solution

Can ageing skin treatments reduce the appearance of deep wrinkles and fine lines?

Yes, ageing skin treatments can significantly reduce the appearance of deep wrinkles and fine lines. Treatments like dermal fillers, botulinum toxin injections, and laser resurfacing work by smoothing the skin, stimulating collagen production, or both, leading to a more youthful appearance.

How long do the results of ageing skin treatments last?

The duration of results from ageing skin treatments varies depending on the type of treatment and individual factors like skin type and lifestyle. For example, results from injectable treatments can last from 3 to 18 months, while the effects of laser treatments may last for several years with proper skin care and sun protection.

Are there any age restrictions for undergoing ageing skin treatments?

While there's no specific age limit for most ageing skin treatments, it's generally recommended for individuals who are 18 years and older. The suitability of treatment depends more on the skin's condition and the specific concerns being addressed rather than age alone.

What is the recovery time for the most common ageing skin treatments?

Recovery times vary widely among ageing skin treatments. Non-invasive procedures like chemical peels and microdermabrasion may have minimal downtime, allowing patients to return to daily activities almost immediately. To contrast, more intensive treatments like deep laser resurfacing may require a recovery period of up to two weeks. It will depend on factors such as the exact definition of recovery. Redness and swelling, for example, may be tolerated by some patients, but others, maybe due to a customer-facing job, may have a different view. If you are at all concerned about this, please mention it during your consultation.

How can I maintain the results of my ageing skin treatment?

Maintaining the results of an ageing skin treatment involves a combination of professional care and a diligent at-home skincare routine. This includes using sunscreen daily, following a skincare regimen tailored to your skin type, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. Regular follow-up treatments may also be necessary to preserve and enhance the results.
