THE LATEST TECHNOLOGIES FOR MEDICAL AESTHETIC TREATMENTS

Aesthetic treatments are improved by advanced technology - Cosmetic industry is evolving and treatments are more efficient, faster, and with shorter downtime.

Medical aesthetic treatments and procedures, especially non-invasive ones, appear to be growing in popularity across the planet, with no sign of stopping. To be able to satisfy the growing demands, it comes as no surprise that the cosmetic industry needs advanced, cutting-edge technology, designed to increase efficiency, ease discomfort and produce long-lasting results. Aesthetic treatments that are always in-demand are constantly improving and benefit the most from rapid technological advances. This is especially true for treatments concerning skin rejuvenation and body contouring.

MEDICAL AESTHETIC TREATMENTS FOR SKIN REJUVENATION

Microdermabrasion is a popular cosmetic procedure that uses advanced microdermabrasion technology for skin rejuvenation and resurfacing. It takes advantage of technology specifically designed to successfully exfoliate and remove damaged and dry skin cells. At the same time, a diamond tip wand, used to deliver targeted condition-specific formulations to the dermis,  polishes the skin, leaving it soft and improving its appearance and texture. Microdermabrasion treatments are highly beneficial for patients who are looking to treat acne, pigmentation, fine lines, or dry and dehydrated skin. State-of-the-art technology this non-invasive procedure utilizes enables patients to achieve the desired results with virtually no downtime, which explains the rising popularity of microdermabrasion.

Microneedling dates as far back as 1995 but became ubiquitous fairly recently due to its new and improved technology, as well as quite impressive results it delivers. The treatment implies inserting very short needles into the skin which stimulate the skin’s ability to heal itself. Such micro-damage encourages regrowth of the skin, which in turn stimulates the production of elastin and collagen. The result is rejuvenated, toned, radiant and plump skin, which is why micro-needling is recommended for those facing age-related skin issues including wrinkles, pigmentation, skin atrophy, or sun-damaged skin. Thanks to the hi-tech devices, such as Dermapen microneedling pen which delivers up to 1,300 surface-deep punctures per second, the whole procedure lasts less than an hour, with almost no downtime. What is more important, the results are usually seen right after the initial treatment.

Fractional laser (or Fraxel laser) is a non-invasive and non-surgical microscopic laser that uses fractional photo-thermolysis to rejuvenate and tighten the skin, improve its tone and texture, address any pigmentation issues, and reduce scars and fine lines. By penetrating the skin and creating multiple microscopic injuries, Fraxel laser stimulates and enhances the production of elastin and collagen, therefore improving the overall appearance of the skin, leaving it healthy and glowing. The sophisticated technology behind fractional-thermolysis lasers ensures the fractional laser treatment is harmless, effective, and followed by a relatively short recovery period.

When it comes to the most efficient anti-aging procedures, LED face mask treatments have demonstrated quite impressive results. They proved to be excellent for tackling numerous skin concerns, like addressing pigmentation issues, brightening the skin, smoothening and tightening fine lines and wrinkles, improving uneven skin tone, treating acne and rosacea, and minimizing pore size. LED (Light Emitting Diode) therapy sends therapeutic light energy to the skin cells where it is being transformed into ATP, thus fuelling the cells and enhancing collagen and elastin production. LED mask has no side-effects and contraindications, which makes it suitable for all skin types, regardless of the color or a pre-existing condition.

MEDICAL AESTHETIC TREATMENTS FOR BODY CONTOURING

CoolSculpting is a highly effective, non-invasive, and non-surgical procedure designed to remove the stubborn fat from certain problematic areas of the body, such as flanks, chin, back, inner and outer thighs, arms, or upper and lower abdomen.

CoolSculpting treatment uses the latest Cryolipolysis technology which freezes and crystalizes targeted fat cells, breaking them down and removing them from the body through a natural fat removal process. The initial results can be seen as early as three weeks after the first treatment, although the body needs a few months to remove all the fat cells present in the targeted area. This aesthetic procedure is harmless and offers long-lasting results.

Venus Freeze is an advanced procedure that offers two treatments at the same time – skin tightening and cellulite reduction. Venus Freeze reduces wrinkles and tightens the skin by helping it regenerate fibroblasts and enhance collagen. At the same time, the procedure facilitates fat and cellulite reduction by melting fat cells in the treated area. This innovative technology makes the treatment painless, comfortable, and quick, with clearly visible results and no downtime.

Viora Reaction is an advanced cellulite reduction procedure that targets both the body and the skin. It uses complex multi-frequency CORE technology which triggers the process of fat cell reduction and facilitates elastin and collagen production by combining radiofrequency energy and vacuum suction. The energy breaks down the fat cells deep under the skin, while the vacuum triggers lymphatic drainage. As a result, you can notice better skin complexion, as well as improved appearance and slimmer figure. Viora Reaction treatments are comfortable, effective, safe, highly customizable and depend solely on a patient’s needs and requirements.

CONCLUSION

Regardless of the procedure, the advanced technology used in the cosmetic industry is to be credited for many improvements, such as the increased effectiveness of each treatment, minimal discomfort and shorter recovery time, as well as exceptional, clearly visible results. However, to ensure the desired results are achieved, it is essential that these technologically advanced medical aesthetic treatments are done properly, in a reputable clinic and by a licensed skin therapist.

THERMAGE FOR BODY: TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR AGING SKIN

The Thermage treatment safely and effectively tightens the skin on arms, stomach, thighs, buttocks, face and neck. It can also smooth uneven, dimpled skin on the body and temporarily reduce the appearance of cellulite.

New and improved collagen is produced over time to further tighten the skin. This treatment for body takes 30 minutes to 2 hours of time depending on the areas to be treated. Thermage procedure is effective for men and women seeking to firm their sagging and loose skin. Unlike other treatments, Thermage doesn’t require multiple sessions. A single Thermage treatment yields the required results for most of the patients.

THERMAGE FOR EYES: DON’T LET YOUR EYES SPEAK YOUR AGE

Thermage for eyes, an FDA-cleared treatment for eyelids - rejuvenate, firm and lift eyelid skin with safe RF energy that also smooths out wrinkles and lines.

The most noticeable change in a human’s face over age are the eyes that have delicate skin. The hooding, fine lines and brow line can make us look worn-down. The skin’s collagen and elastin simply breaks down faster than your body can rebuild them, causing your skin to lose elasticity that leads to wrinkles. This brings in the need of a treatment that can rejuvenate and brighten the eye area. Thermage, an FDA cleared treatment can come to rescue to tighten and lift the eyelid skin. This procedure uses radiofrequency energy which is passed into the dermis tissue to fill the wrinkles and fine lines caused by aging. This gentle heating tightens the existing collagen and stimulates the production of new collagen thus gradually tightening the collagen. This treatment is well suited for people who need a dramatic result in hiding the signs of brow and eyelid sagging without going under the knife.
