Skin Tightening Treatment
Tighter Smoother Skin
You are not alone in your quest for smoother, more youthful skin for the face and the body. Most of us are easily duped into buying face products and beauty regimes in the belief that in a short space of time, we too will start to look healthier and years younger. The truth is most lotions and potions will only help keep your skin hydrated and, at best, prevent further decline in texture. To actually make a real difference in the improvement to your skin you need to be looking at more advanced treatments.
A better complexion
Starting with the face, you might want to consider exactly how well or badly your skin is faring for your age. Ask yourself which are the areas that bother you most? Is it wrinkles or sagging skin (or both) that make you look your age – or even older? Review photographs taken in different lights, regard your face carefully while feeling fit and well and without make up. In most cases, a person’s skin will benefit from the effects of skin tightening treatments rather than a drastic face lift.
At Juvea we use an advanced technology called the Pellevé ® System. This treatment works on wrinkles, skin laxity, jowls and sagging neck skin. Typical areas on the face that benefit from this latest dev elopement in aesthetics are under eye bags, dark circles and eye bags, weakened jaw lines and creeping lip lines (“smokers lips”). Pellevé® uses radio frequency energy which produces heat. This heat and energy targets the point where skin meets the fatty layers below. This action encourages the production of new collagen. Just one application should give visible signs of improvement although 2-3 treatments are usually recommended to achieve optimum results.
An effective non- invasive option
The need, or pressure, to lose weight can be directed from various perspectives: health problems, feeling unattractive, post pregnancy weight and even sporting accomplishments. However, not much is talked about what happens after successful weight loss. Anyone would be pleased when they achieve their goals but for some, weight loss brings another problem and that is excess, sagging skin. No amount of exercise, toning gadgets or body lotions will solve this problem. At Juvea we understand that improving skin conditions is not about trying to reach perfection. Excessive skin is a real and distressing problem for some people after drastic or even minor weight loss.
Skin tightening treatments are they way forward. And those that can work on large areas at one time are the best solution for sagging skin on the tummy, hips and thighs. The Pellevé® system is designed to tighten skin using advanced radio frequency technology. The hot energy impacts the skin where it meets the fatty layers below, encouraging more production of collagen – the vital substance for tighter, smoother and more youthful skin.
If you have a problem of excess skin after weight loss, the experts at Juvea Aesthetics will be able to advise you on the suitability of the Pellevé treatment.
For some patients the result of drastic weight loss leaves them with a problem that requires more than the non-invasive options. A tummy tuck, traditional lipoplasty (liposuction) or laser lipoplasty will give the best results for those with large amounts of sagging skin. When you have an assessment with a Juvea clinician you can decide which treatment is the right one for you.
