 What are different advanced skin treatments?

Advanced skin treatment is a very popular service offered by aestheticians and dermatologists. Advanced skin treatments are generally performed on clients who have skin problems that need advanced treatment. Advanced skin treatments can help with many different issues including acne, wrinkles, pigmentation and even scarring.

The following are some of the most common types of advanced skin treatments:

Microdermabrasion

This is a non-invasive treatment that uses crystals to exfoliate the skin. The crystals remove dead cells on the surface of your skin and leave you with brighter, smoother looking skin. It is ideal for those who have fine lines or wrinkles because microdermabrasion can help make them less visible. This treatment can also be used to clear up acne scars and dark spots on your face.

Laser Resurfacing

Laser resurfacing uses high levels of energy to burn away damaged or dead cells from your skin’s surface layer so that new, healthy cells can replace them. This treatment can improve fine lines and wrinkles as well as treat acne scars, sun damage, stretch marks and other blemishes on your face or body.

Injectables

 Injectable fillers are another popular treatment that work by using hyaluronic acid (the same substance found naturally in your body) to plump up wrinkles around the nose, mouth or chin area. Fillers are typically made from hyaluronic acid mixed with other ingredients such as collagen or calcium hydroxylapatite that help it retain water and give it volume. There are many different types of injectable fillers available today including Restylane, Perlane, Juvederm and Radiesse just to name a few.

Chemical peels

Chemical peels are a great option for those who want to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, reduce the appearance of acne scars, or even out the skin tone. Chemical peels are often performed in the office with a topical anesthetic applied before the procedure. Chemical peels can be done on all skin types, but darker complexions may require a deeper peel or additional preparation prior to treatment. The degree of peeling will depend on the type of peel and your skin’s ability to tolerate it. Chemical peels can be performed in conjunction with other procedures such as Botox injections and laser hair removal to provide a more complete facial rejuvenation package.

Laser hair removal

Laser hair removal is a procedure that uses lasers to remove unwanted hair from the body. The laser passes through the skin and heats up the hair follicle, which kills the root of the hair. This causes the follicle to shrink, which eventually causes the hair to fall out. Laser hair removal can be used for various parts of the body, including:

Underarms

Chin/cheeks

Legs and bikini line

Back and chest area

Botox

Botox is one of the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatments and is used by many people to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. It is a treatment that uses botulinum toxin (botox) injected into muscles to block nerve impulses which causes muscle relaxation. This can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles as well as facial grimaces such as frown lines and crow’s feet. Botox Cosmetic, or onabotulinumtoxinA, is a purified protein injected into muscles to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the brows. The effects of Botox Cosmetic typically last for up to 4 months.
