3 Surgery-Free Ways to Improve Your Appearance
Are you looking for a subtle way to improve your appearance or reclaim your youth? Do you want to look better without undergoing surgery, making a drastic change, or taking time off work?
Here are the top 3 non-surgical cosmetic treatments that can be used to naturally enhance your appearance:
1. BOTOX
One of the most popular cosmetic treatments, Botox is used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by repeated muscle movements. When injected, Botox relaxes these muscles, preventing the skin from creasing.
It is used for aging concerns including:
- Crow’s feet
- ‘Turkey neck’
- Frown lines
- Forehead lines
- Vertical lines between the eyebrows
How long does a Botox treatment take? While this will vary from patient to patient, typically one Botox treatment takes 10-15 minutes.
How long do Botox results last? The results of this skin treatment are long lasting but not permanent. Repeat treatments will be required every 3-4 months.
Will Botox make my face look unnatural? When performed by a board-certified, experienced plastic surgeon, Botox will allow you to retain facial movement while dramatically improving your appearance.
How long is the recovery time for a Botox treatment? After your procedure, you will be able to resume your normal activities. There is minimal downtime but your specialist will give you specific aftercare instructions.
2. LASER HAIR REMOVAL
Laser hair removal is the most popular cosmetic treatment for permanent hair reduction. Our experienced therapists use the GentleLase hair removal system. This provides fast, reliable and safe hair reduction in most areas of the body, including:
- Face (cheeks, upper-lip, chin)
- Arms and underarms
- Back & Chest
- Legs & Thighs
- Bikini
How does GentleLase Laser Hair Removal System Work? GentleLase works by directing a concentrated light into the hair follicle, disrupting its ability to grow without damaging the surrounding skin.
How long does one laser hair removal treatment take? The duration of this procedure will vary depending on your skin type, the coarseness of your hair, as well as the size and location of the treatment site. Talk to our skin care specialists for more details.
When will I be able to see the results of my treatment? Almost immediately! The treatment area will remain smooth and hair-free between your appointments.
How many treatments will I need? While the number of permanent hair removal sessions needed will depend on several factors, a minimum of 4-8 treatments are required.
3. PERMANENT MAKEUP
Permanent makeup is an innovative cosmetic procedure for both men and women, designed to enhance your facial features. It can be used to address many areas of concern, including:
- Lips
- Eyebrows
- Stretch marks
- Freckles and scars
- Age spots/ Birthmarks
- Areola reconstruction
How does permanent makeup work? Permanent makeup is the revolutionary method of depositing hypoallergenic mineral pigments into the dermal layer of the skin using an ultra-fine needle to enhance the patient’s appearance.
How long does a permanent makeup treatment take? While the first procedure will take approximately 2 hours, any follow-up or color-refresher treatments will require a much shorter time.
Is permanent makeup really permanent? This treatment is considered permanent because the pigment is tattooed into the dermal layer of the skin and can’t be washed off. However, fading can occur and may require periodic maintenance for the best results.
