Wrinkles are small furrows that appear on the skin over the years. They are due to a loss of elasticity, firmness and a lack of hydration of the skin tissue. Over time, the production of collagen and elastin slows down and wrinkles develop in the direction of the fibres and in the natural folds of the skin. Wrinkles can be accentuated by stress, a drop in certain hormones, excessive exposure to the sun or smoking.
There are different methods to soften or eliminate wrinkles, based on different injectable products (hyaluronic acid or Radiesse) or skin-smoothing solutions (laser, peelings or Hydrafacial®).
Injections with hyaluronic acid
The injection with hyaluronic acid is the ideal technique when it comes to filling wrinkles, restoring volume to the skin or sculpting the shape of the face. The injectable hyaluronic acid used in aesthetic medicine is identical to that produced by the body and is obtained by biotechnological processes. It is today widely used and recognised for its skin tolerance and natural look.
Radiesse® injections
Radiesse® is a volumising product based on calcium hydroxylapatite, which is a form of calcium naturally present in the body. Therefore, Radiesse® is safe to use and does not pose any risk of rejection or allergy. It is fully resorbable and completely biocompatible. It is a highly effective filler for deep wrinkles, mouth corners, marionette lines, facial drooping and nasogenian folds.
The CO2 laser
The CO2 laser has been used for many years to correct sagging skin, to correct the signs of ageing or to destroy certain benign skin lesions. The CO2 laser is the ideal treatment for signs of ageing such as pigmentation spots, fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin and unsightly pigmentation. A single treatment significantly improves skin texture and complexion.
Peelings
The appearance of some moderate scars can be improved by the smoothing effect of peelings. They provide natural exfoliation of the epidermis and dermis. The depth of action of the treatment depends on the importance of the skin imperfections to be treated. Several sessions are generally necessary.
The HydraFacial® treatment
HydraFacial® is a revolutionary patented treatment that gently smooths the skin and temporarily opens the pores to cleanse and exfoliate the skin and to remove impurities. At the same time, HydraFacial® provides the skin with exclusive serums to moisturise and protect it in the long term. Regular skin care with HydraFacial restores your skin’s radiance.
