TOP 5 SKIN BOOSTER TREATMENTS
PLASTIC SURGERY DUBAI | 20 January 2024
Skin boosters are non-invasive treatments that hydrate, smooth, and enhance the skin’s overall texture and elasticity for a more youthful and radiant appearance. Here are Dr. Vigo’s top 5 skin booster treatments:
1. BOTOX
You may have heard of anti-wrinkle treatments, such as Botox, in movies, on television and in the news. Botulinum Toxin has been around for decades and continues to be one of the more popular ways to tackle the signs of ageing. Due to its excellent anti-wrinkle properties, Botulinum Toxin is exceptional at reducing the visible appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Even wrinkles that have developed over time can be addressed quite simply with a few injectable treatments using this solution.
Following an injection of Botox into the treated area, the substance actively blocks the nerve signals to your muscle. By blocking the nerve signal, the muscle is encouraged to relax and not tense up in its usual activity, thus creating and developing wrinkles. Without a signal, the muscle is not able to contract.
The result for patients is a smoother look and a reduced appearance of your wrinkles. In some cases, they become so hidden that it is impossible to tell they were there.
2. PROFHILO
Profhilo is a revolutionary aesthetic treatment that has gained significant popularity in recent years. It is a unique injectable designed to counteract the effects of skin ageing and rejuvenate the skin’s overall appearance. Profhilo is composed of a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body responsible for maintaining skin hydration and elasticity.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Profhilo works by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins that keep the skin firm and youthful. By delivering hyaluronic acid to the deeper layers of the skin, Profhilo effectively improves skin texture, tightness, and hydration. The treatment involves a series of precise injections into specific areas of the face or body, resulting in smoother, plumper, and more radiant skin.
Profhilo spreads evenly beneath the skin to boost hydration and stimulate collagen and elastin production throughout the treated area. This comprehensive approach results in overall skin improvement and a more natural-looking outcome.
Profhilo treatments are minimally invasive, making them an attractive option for individuals seeking non-surgical rejuvenation. The treatment involves a series of small injections administered in specific points on the face or body, making it relatively quick and comfortable for patients.
Profhilo treatments offer long-lasting results compared to some other non-surgical treatments. The dual action of stimulating collagen and elastin production helps to improve skin quality and tightness, providing gradual and natural-looking results that can last up to six months. Regular maintenance treatments can further extend the benefits, helping patients maintain a youthful appearance over time.
3. HYDRAFACIAL
The Hydrafacial is a highly-effective, non-invasive treatment which benefits a range of skin conditions. There are many benefits to getting a HydraFacial, including:
– improved skin texture and tone
– reduced wrinkles and fine lines
– reduced pore size
– reduced sun damage
– reduced acne scars
– evened out skin tone
Hydrafacials are a painless treatment, meaning you can sit back and relax comfortably. For those with more sensitive skin, the treatment can be varied to suit your comfort levels to make the procedure less abrasive.
4. ENDYMED
ENDYMED is a combination of powerful technologies, offering bespoke skin resurfacing treatments, depending on your individual requirements.
ENDYMED is an advanced radiofrequency treatment for firmer, tighter skin with more definition and youthful luminosity. ENDYMED utilises powerful radiofrequency collagen remodelling and rebuilding by creating controlled, therapeutic heating of the deeper layers of the skin. This in-turn encourages the skin’s natural healing process, boosting collagen production and improving the skin’s underlying structure.
ENDYMED can be used on areas such as the cheeks, neck, jawline, and around the eyes, for the perfect non-surgical facelift.
5. MICRONEEDLING
Microneedling is a popular treatment known as collagen induction therapy. It involves super-fine needles that are applied with an electric device or traditional by a hand rolling device called a dermaroller. The needles can be set at differing depths to penetrate the upper layers of the skin, creating tiny wounds.
These wounds signal to the body that it’s time to heal: causing it to produce collagen and elastin fibres. Collagen gives our skin its strength and elasticity; elastin gives skin its remarkable ability to “bounce back” when pinched or pulled. Both of these can diminish as we age.
Microneedling spurs production of these key elements, promoting fuller, younger-looking skin.
Skin booster treatemnts provide a myriad of benefits that can considerably enhance your skin’s health and overall appearance:
Enhanced Skin Hydration
One of the most notable benefits of skin booster injections is the significant boost in skin hydration with potent hydrating and moisturising properties that help keep your skin looking fresh and vibrant.
Improved Skin Quality
Skin booster treatments can significantly improve the texture, firmness, and elasticity of your skin. As a result, your skin feels softer to the touch, appears more toned and firm, and has a more youthful bounce.
Reduced Appearance of Crepey Skin
Skin boosters can help reduce the appearance of crepey skin, which is thin and finely wrinkled skin that resembles crepe paper. By improving skin hydration and elasticity, these injections can help make your skin appear plumper and smoother.
Reduced Appearance of Fine Lines
The hydrating properties of skin boosters can also help lessen the visibility of fine lines. By plumping up the skin, these injections can smooth out these lines, helping to give your skin a more youthful appearance.
Diminished Appearance of Acne Scarring
Skin booster injections can also help to lessen the appearance of acne scarring. By improving the texture and quality of your skin, these treatments can help to even out any irregularities caused by acne scars.
Improvement of Skin Imperfections
Skin boosters can also be beneficial for improving various skin imperfections. Whether it’s an uneven skin texture, slight discolouration, or early signs of ageing, these injections can help to improve these issues.
Even Skin Texture
Lastly, skin booster injections can help to even out your skin’s texture. This can make your skin feel smoother to the touch and give it a more uniform appearance, contributing to a more radiant complexion.
