Addressing Ageing Concerns

By Florence Goulbourne

As the industry expands at a phenomenal rate, there are an array of treatments for an array of perceived flaws and procedures to help address your ageing concerns.

Ageing concerns are an inevitable thing and unfortunately, it cannot be stopped. But, with the correct approach, the visible signs of ageing can be improved thanks to the developing aesthetics world. The certainty that the time won’t turn its hands for us is becoming a bigger realisation for the latter half than ever before with studies showing that 42% of women aged 25–34 and 54% of those aged 35–44 worry about signs of ageing. Plus, more than a quarter of the millennial (28%) women surveyed under the age of 25 admitted that they too, regularly worry about how ageing takes a toll on their skin.

Considering ageing is an inevitable part of life, many of us have comprehensible fears about how ageing will affect us, and our appearance. From health concerns to physical appearance, ageing can alter the way many of us perceive ourselves and one of the most common worries lies with the drastic change in our appearances including fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss.

Chances are you’ve heard about the more ‘obvious’ of approaches to addressing ageing concerns such as Anti-Wrinkle Injections (more commonly known as Botox®) but knowing what you need to combat the ageing process can often be overwhelming and intimidating. Understanding the ageing process is the most important step in deciding what treatment options to use. So, what happens to your face when you age?

Ageing of the face, for example, can start as early as 20 and continues to prevail as we grow older. The rate at which ageing will become more visible, and to what extent, differs from person to person. These things typically happen as you age:

  • Soft tissues (muscles, fat, connective tissue) fall due to gravity: As you age, loss of collagen in the deep tissues, along with the effects of gravity and repeated activity leads to deep wrinkles in the face.
  • Volume loss from fat pads: These are located below the skin’s surface. As you age, they get thinner and descend. Hollows can form beneath the eyes. Drooping tissues can cause deep lines around the nose and mouth. Fat can accumulate beneath the chin causing a double chin.
  • Skin changes and wrinkles: As you age, you experience a loss of collagen and elastin. which results in the development of nasolabial folds, frown lines and crow’s feet. There is also a reduction in hydration and a rougher texture due to the depletion of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) within the skin.
  • Facial structure changes: The bones are the foundation for your facial muscles, fat pads and skin. As you age, you may experience facial bone loss, which changes the dimensions and contour of your face.

Skin Boosters

Skin Boosters are one of the newest and fastest-growing advancements within the aesthetics industry to-date. Skin Boosters are injectable skin treatments which are formulated to aid in the hydration and rejuvenation of the skin. More importantly, Skin Boosters also help to address certain ageing concerns such as skin laxity. These treatments are developed with skin-saving, moisture-surging benefits to help deliver saturating hydration into the deeper dermis.  For those looking for a treatment to help with perceived ageing flaws, Skin Boosters help to promote a rejuvenated and healthy glow from the inside out. Formulated with Hyaluronic Acid (HA), a natural substance found in the body, Skin Boosters help to restore the physiological depletion of this element back into the skin for a hydrated look and feel; as we age, we lose approximately 1% of our Hyaluronic Acid (HA) stores per year after the age of 30. Thus, resulting in fine lines and loss of facial volume.

kin Boosters further work to revitalise the skin by improving texture and appearance for a brighter look. Essentially, they are a super versatile skin injection treatment to treat various areas for an array of perceived skin flaws including ageing.

Skin Boosters

One Skin Booster that works amazingly for treating signs of ageing is the Next Generation Skin Booster, Seventy Hyal 2000 Seventy Hyal 2000 is a bio-stimulating, injectable Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Skin Booster that aims to improve hydration levels within the skin. This Skin Booster also works to simultaneously stimulate the production of new collagen and elastin which helps to combat the signs of ageing with a longer-term approach.   Collagen is a naturally occurring protein found in our connective tissue that helps to strengthen skin cells whilst adding structure. On the other hand, elastin which is also a protein, works to provide resilience and elasticity to our skin. Some of the more obvious signs of ageing can be attributed to fine lines and wrinkles, a lack of firmness and elasticity and skin sagging which all lead to signs that your skin is lacking both collagen and elastin. With these proteins lacking, the loss of collagen and elastin will lead to the skin becoming thinner, drier, and with less elasticity. Furthermore, Seventy Hyal 2000 provides intense skin-deep hydration and markets itself as a hybrid skin booster.   Additional to its moisture-surging benefits, Seventy Hyal 2000 also adds gentle volume to the skin and can provide a temporary (1- 2 weeks) contouring effect if applied specifically to facial areas that benefit from enhancement – perfect for volume loss due to ageing. Essentially, Skin Boosters such as Seventy Hyal 2000 for example are an amazing and non-invasive option to help prevent signs of ageing or alternatively, improve the appearance of ageing factors like fine lines and wrinkles. Not only do Skin Boosters help to advance your skin, but they also help with deep-skin hydration, improving skin elasticity, tone, and texture, collagen and elastin production and helps with the skin’s natural luminosity.   Overall, Skin Boosters are the perfect treatments to help nourish, deeply hydrate, and repair aging skin.

Dermal Fillers

As time passes, gravity really begins to take a toll on our skin – shaping and altering the way our skin sits. This, along with various other ageing catalysts, leads to a loss of volume in the cheeks and sagging skin in the lower face or jowl area.

Another aesthetic innovation to help correct these perceived ageing flaws is Dermal Filler. Dermal Fillers are about lifting, restoring volume and augmenting (or contouring) facial features. They can help to restore volume and facial fat loss, contour or reshape facial features, augment the nose, lip and chin, and restore volume under the eyes. The results are noticeable instantly after one treatment and can last 12-18 months

Dermal Fillers are the innovative solution to help soften fine lines and wrinkles whilst helping to reintroduce volume back into ageing skin, helping to dramatically soften your overall appearance. Essentially, these injectables can be used to improve appearance in a variety of different ways.

Moreover, Dermal Fillers can help to restore a youthfully revived look or to enhance the natural contouring and sculpting of the features – lost amidst the signs of ageing. Most Dermal Fillers are a gel-like consistency and contain a high concentration of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) however, depending on the filler brand you opt for the contents of the gel will vary. Hyaluronic Acid aids the skin in maintaining hydration whilst adding moisture surging benefits into the dermis to help restore a youthful look. As prementioned, Hyaluronic Acid stores in our body begin to deplete as we age so restorative treatments such as Dermal Filler for example make for the perfect solution. Restoring lost levels of Hyaluronic Acid directly into the areas needing supplementary volumes such as deep lines and wrinkles is the perfect way to add gentle volume to the face to help improve these signs of ageing.

Dermal Fillers such as REVOLAX work amazingly to help combat the signs of ageing and have also been dubbed ‘the liquid face-lift’. Facial volume loss can have some people complaining of a fatigued look due to the sagging skin and hollowness. However, Dermal Fillers can help to correct these anatomical changes with natural-looking results. Dermal Fillers such as The Nation’s Favourite Dermal Filler, REVOLAX, play a pivotal role in providing restorative benefits giving a plump and youthful result when administered correctly – they are a safe and effective option for rejuvenation without the need for invasive surgery.

As well as restoring and replenishing lost volume, Dermal Filler can be used to enhance certain areas of the face that we feel detract from our facial structure; it can add enhancement to popular areas such as the lips and cheeks for augmentation.

Anti-Wrinkle Injections

As one of the most popular cosmetic treatments within the aesthetics industry, Anti-Wrinkle Injections rose to popularity due to the effectiveness of the procedure. Anti-Wrinkle Injections,also known as Botulinum Toxins or Botox are used for the appearance of deep lines and wrinkles.   Anti-Wrinkle Injections can be administered in various treatment areas including the forehead, between the brows and for crow’s feet. As well as reducing the appearance of deep lines and preventing wrinkles, some often use Anti-Wrinkle Injections to help treat excessive sweating.   Botulinum Toxins are used for both aesthetic and medical indications, medical indications include hyperhidrosis, an overactive bladder, cervical dystonia, lazy eye and may also help to prevent chronic migraines. These injectables are made from a purified protein that works to temporarily relax facial muscles. Moreover, Anti-Wrinkle Injections work to smooth facial wrinkles by temporarily paralyzing the muscle.   When the Anti-Wrinkle Treatment is injected, it works to block the signal sent from your nerves to your muscles. Without this signal, the muscle cannot contract, thus resulting in the visible improvement of fine lines and wrinkles. Preventing the targeted muscles from contracting essentially helps to diminish wrinkles caused when frowning or showing expression.

Summary

Ageing is a natural and inevitable process of growing older and although unavoidable, the signs of ageing are preventable due to the aesthetics and treatment industry constantly developing. Comprehensive anti-ageing treatments are on the rise to help with ageing concerns whilst still maintaining a natural look.
