Thermage

Thermage is a safe, non-invasive FDA approved procedure that's clinically proven to tighten and contour skin. Thermage unique deep-heating technology stimulates and renews collagen, resulting in tighter, smoother skin. Thermage is completely non-invasive and works on all skin types and tones. The Thermage procedure is typically performed in a single session so there's no downtime.

Thermage is a non-invasive FDA approved procedure that tightens and renews the skin's collagen in all three layers. Thermage's unique Capacitive Radio Frequency (CRF) technology safely heats the skin's underlayer and the web of collagen in the inner layer, causing an immediate tightening as well as improved tone and texture. The Thermage treatment causes improvements to continue and become more noticeable for four to six months, due to new collagen growth.

Thermage is safer than invasive cosmetic procedures and works on all skin types and colours. Only one treatment is needed to obtain the full benefits. Thermage rejuvenates the collagen and works across the entire face, including forehead, eyes, nasolabial folds, jaw line, jowls and under the chin.

Unlike many other RF procedures requiring four or more sessions, a single Thermage skin treatment produces results in the majority of cases. CorrectionImmediate results from the Thermage treatment are visible, and improve over time. Measurable tightening and contouring improvements appear gradually over a two to six month time period following a single Thermage treatment session.

Eyes By Thermage^TM is the only FDA approved procedure that helps smooth and tighten skin and decrease wrinkles and hooding in the eye area without surgery or injections. Thermage treatment around the eyes takes about one hour and because there is no bruising, swelling or sutures, make-up can be applied again immediately.

Thermage treatment tightens and smoothes skin and reduces crepiness and hooding. Thermage tightens the brow area and tautens the contours around the eyes reducing under eye bags and softening crow's feet.

Body by Thermage^TM - Other non-invasive treatments for cellulite and body improvement require multiple treatments to improve the appearance of dimpling.

This procedure, which is FDA approved, helps tighten and renew your skin's collagen through all three skin layers: the epidermis, dermis and deep subcutaneous (fat) layers. Thermage’s unique capacitive radiofrequency (RF) technology safely heats the deeper layers of your skin, stimulating existing collagen and promoting new collage growth and the result is skin that looks and feels noticeably smoother, tighter and firmer. Body areas that are treatable include the abdomen, arms, thighs, buttocks and knees.

Thermage side effects are generally mild and may include redness, swelling, blisters, and bumps depending on age and skin condition.

Regular activities can be undertaken immediately following Thermage skin treatment and there is no special after care treatment required.

Thermage skin treatment tightens existing collagen and stimulates new natural collagen production for up to six months following the treatment. Unpublished reports by experienced cosmetic doctors indicate that results from Thermage treatment may last for years and are based on the patient's natural aging process.

Fraxel

Fraxel is the latest laser treatment for sun damaged skin, stretch marks, age spots and acne scars. Fraxel repairs sun damage and combats the effects of time. Fraxel is the latest state-of-the-art skin rejuvenation for sun-damaged skin, stretch marks, age spots and acne scars.

Fraxel laser treatment improves appearance by affecting only a fraction of skin at a time with thousands of tiny microscopic laser spots. Fraxel Laser Treatment produces thousands of tiny treatment zones on skin, known as Micro Thermal Zones. These MTZs penetrate deep into the dermis and eliminate old epidermal pigmented cells. Just as important are the areas of skin the Fraxel laser leaves untouched. The Fraxel Re:store laser is so precise that it penetrates through the stratum corneum, as if it was a window, and leaves it completely intact.

For every MicroThermal Zone the Fraxel laser targets and treats, it leaves the surrounding tissue unaffected and intact. This "fractional" Fraxel treatment allows the skin to heal much faster than if the entire area were treated at once. Following the first Fraxel Laser Treatment, skin becomes softer, smoother and fresher.

After several Fraxel treatments, skin looks youthful and healthy. Fraxel Laser Treatment spares healthy tissue so Fraxel is effective even on delicate skin areas, such as the neck, chest and hands. Clinical studies suggest that an effective Fraxel treatment regime is three to five sessions, spaced 14 days or more apart. However, Fraxel treatment plans can be very flexible and effective, even spaced by weeks or months. Each Fraxel treatment session targets between 12-20% of the skin's surface and results following Fraxel treatment are immediate and progressive.

Most lasers treat the skin with high-power levels and macroscopic spot sizes. The problem with this approach is that healthy tissue is often damaged. Fraxel treats the skin fractionally with patterns of microscopic laser spots each, of which, is 70-100 microns in diameter, resulting in a unique wound healing process. The Fraxel laser spot, the MicroThermal Zone, or MTZ, is surrounded by healthy tissue. Working through a technologically advanced system of optics, the Fraxel SR Laser delivers 2,000 MTZs per square centimeter. Fraxel laser treatment is a proven, safe approach to repairing aging and sun-damaged skin.

Smartlipo

Fatty areas that are normally resistant to dieting and physical exercise can now be treated with either Smartlipo. Smartlipo is a totally revolutionary, minimally invasive, approach to body contouring.

Smartlipo is an innovative technique designed specifically for the removal of excess fat. SmartLipo provokes the breaking up of the membranes of the adipose cells, lipocytes, allowing the elimination of their liquid oily contents in a natural manner.

The Smartlipo techniques are performed by a laser specifically developed for this purpose. SmartLipo works safely, effectively and is a minimally invasive and less traumatic technique compared with traditional methods. SmartLipo requires minimal recovery time and are straightforward and safe procedures. SmartLipo requires minimal post-treatment care and following bthere are no major side effects.

SmartLipo smooths the contours of the overlying skin. The Smartlipo procedures takes around one hour and is safe because they only targets the adipocytes. For localised deposits of fat, one Smartlipo session is all that is needed and initial results are visible fairly quickly. Additional Smartlipo sessions are required for large areas.

SmartLipo treatments gives a permanent, positive effect and recovery time after smartlipo treatment is very quick. Normal activities after smartlipo can be undertaken almost immediately, although it is advisable to avoid strenuous sports for two weeks after smartlipo and intense massage for four to five weeks after smartlipo treatments.

Restylane

Restylane treatment is ideal for the augmentation of lips and reducing smile lines. Restylane is also the perfect treatment for oral commisures and cheek augmentation. Other areas of the face which respond well to restylane are the nose to mouth folds, frown lines and chin dimpling.

Lips collapse with age so strengthening the top lip with subtle enhancement can improve the overall appearance of the lower part of the face. There are two types of results to be achieved through restylane: lip enhancement and lip rejuvenation. In both cases lips may need to have more than one type of restylane treatment.

Restylane is intended for shaping the contours of the face such as the cheeks. When shaping the contours of the face, crystal-clear Nasha gel is injected into the skin in tiny amounts. Treatment takes a few minutes and the results can be seen immediately.

Restylane is long lasting but not permanent but the restylane procedure can be repeated often. Most patients choose to have a follow-up restylane treatment 6 to 12 months after an initial treatment. It is not advised to have restylane treatment if pregnant or breast feeding. Alcohol intake should be reduced at least 24 hours before restylane treatment. Medication such as aspirin may cause bruising following restylane treatment as will high doses of vitamin E. Restylane treatment cannot be performed until ceasing Accutane medication for at least 6 months. Sun beds, waxing, electrolysis and laser treatments should be avoided at least 48 hours before restylane treatment and for several days after.

Bruising may be reduced following restylane treatment by taking Arnica tablets two days before restylane treatment. Risk of cold sores following restylane treatment may be reduced by the use of Zovirax® tablets if prone to getting cold sores.

Immediately after restylane treatment there may be slight redness, swelling, tenderness and an itching sensation in the restylane treated area. This is a normal result of the restylane injection.

The restylane treated area should be massaged gently for 30 seconds morning and night for 2 to 3 days. The initial swelling after restylane treatment may last longer. Some patients experience swelling for about a week after restylane treatment. This means that the result directly after the restylane treatment should not be seen as the final result.

Avoid touching the restylane treated area for 6 hours after the treatment. After that the area can be gently washed with soap and water and light make-up can be applied.

Restylane contains the human body's own natural material: hyaluronic acid.

Muscle relaxing injection

Muscle relaxing injection is recommended for the treatment of frown lines, wrinkles and worry lines. Muscle relaxing injection is also recommended for the treatment of eye lines and neck lines.

Muscle relaxing injection for wrinkles therapy is an effective treatment for frown lines and worry lines. Muscle relaxing injection wrinkles treatment usually takes effect after 3-5 days but it may take 2 weeks for the maximum Muscle relaxing injection effect. The effect of Muscle relaxing injection wrinkles treatment lasts between 3 to 6 months although after a few Muscle relaxing injection treatments the effect lasts longer.

There are several possible side effects from Muscle relaxing injection treatment but all are minimal. There may be a mild stinging sensation when the Muscle relaxing injection injection is performed. Mild weakness or paralysis of the eyelid (ptosis) or brow may occur with drooping of the eyelid or brow following Muscle relaxing injection treatment but it usually only lasts 2-3 weeks. The incidence of ptosis following Muscle relaxing injection injections is approximately 2%. Another Muscle relaxing injection side effect is a transient headache, numbness or bruising, although all are uncommon.

Muscle relaxing injection is a natural purified protein and relaxes wrinkle-causing muscles. Muscle relaxing injection creates a smoothed, rejuvenated appearance. When injected into a muscle, Muscle relaxing injection temporarily blocks the chemical signals that make the muscle contract. Only minute quantities of Muscle relaxing injection are injected and only the injected muscle will be affected.

Muscle relaxing injection is used in a variety of therapeutic areas including hyperhidrosis or sweating of the armpits. Muscle relaxing injection is one of the few treatments that can be given to treat children over 2 years of age for cerebral palsy. Doses of Muscle relaxing injection often exceed the average cosmetic dose by twenty times.

Normally, no anaesthetic is required during Muscle relaxing injection treatment, but anaesthetic cream can be applied. Following Muscle relaxing injection treatment it is possible to return to work immediately as long as post Muscle relaxing injection treatment guidelines are followed.
