To get a perfect lift without undergoing any surgery and downtime, a combination of HIFU Lifting and Jaw Reduction BTX will give you an ultimate V shape face before your wedding day.

HIFU Lifting

HIFU targets deep muscle layers to achieve a lifting effect. In the past, this can only be reached by traditional surgical facelift. HIFU will stimulate the growth of collagen so that your skin will become stronger and firmer. You will notice that your skin feels tighter and firmer after and the result will continue to be improved over the following 6 months.

Besides injecting BTX to treat frown lines, crow’s feet or forehead lines, it can also be done on the jaw area to shrink large masseter muscles to create a slimmer face and more defined jawline.

Benefits Of HIFU Lifting

Tightening Saggy Skin

HIFU is known for its skin-tightening effects, stimulating collagen production in the deeper layers of the skin. This can result in improved skin elasticity and a firmer appearance.

Lift and Firm Saggy Skin

The focused ultrasound energy of HIFU can lift and tighten sagging skin, particularly in areas prone to laxity such as the jowls, neck, and brow.

Reduce Fine Lines and Wrinkles

HIFU promotes collagen synthesis, helping to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It targets multiple layers of the skin to achieve a rejuvenated look.

Melt Facial Fat

HIFU has been used for facial contouring by targeting and breaking down localized fat deposits. This can result in a more sculpted facial appearance.

Remove Double Chin

HIFU treatments can be used to reduce excess fat and tighten skin in the submental (under the chin) area, addressing the appearance of a double chin.

Improve Dark Eye Circles

HIFU may contribute to the improvement of dark eye circles by stimulating collagen and elastin production in the delicate skin around the eyes.

Improve Skin Tone

HIFU can enhance overall skin tone by promoting collagen remodeling and improving blood circulation. This can lead to a more even complexion.

The collagen-stimulating effects of HIFU can improve skin texture, making it smoother and more supple.

Long-Lasting Results

While individual results can vary, many individuals experience long-lasting improvements in skin tightness and texture after HIFU treatments.

Benefits Of Jaw Reduction BTX

Facial Slimming

BTX injections into the jaw muscles can cause muscle atrophy, leading to a reduction in the size and prominence of the jawline. This can result in an overall facial slimming effect.

Contouring and Definition

By targeting specific jaw muscles, BTX injections can help contour and define the jawline. This can create a more sculpted and aesthetically pleasing facial appearance.

Treatment for Masseter Hypertrophy

Jaw reduction with BTX is often used to address masseter muscle hypertrophy, a condition where the jaw muscles become enlarged, leading to a square or overly prominent jawline.

Reduction of Teeth Grinding

BTX injections in the jaw muscles can help reduce teeth grinding and clenching, which is beneficial for both cosmetic and functional reasons.

Temporal Headaches

Individuals experiencing tension headaches or temporal headaches related to jaw muscle tension may find relief through jaw reduction with BTX.

Counting Down To 3 Months

Ramping things up with skin brightening treatments will be the best option. Carbon Laser is the perfect choice of giving it an extra boost before your big day.

Carbon Laser

Carbon Laser, also known as “Hollywood Peel” was made popular by many of the Hollywood celebrities due to its almost instantaneous result and minimal downtime and discomfort. The takeaway for this treatment is instant brightening and skin glow, improved skin tone and texture, destroyed acne bacteria and reduced pores size. The recommended treatment interval is 3 – 4 weeks apart between each treatment to achieve the natural growing result.

Benefits Of Carbon Laser

Skin Rejuvenation

Carbon laser treatment promotes skin rejuvenation by stimulating collagen production. The laser energy penetrates the skin, triggering a natural healing response that results in improved skin texture and elasticity. This can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving the skin a more youthful and refreshed look.

Pores Refinement

The treatment is effective in refining enlarged pores. The carbon lotion is applied to the skin before the laser treatment penetrates the pores, and when the laser is applied, it helps to exfoliate the outer layer of skin, unclog pores, and reduce their size. This contributes to a smoother and more refined skin texture.

Skin Brightening

Carbon laser treatment can enhance skin brightness by targeting pigmentation irregularities. The laser energy is absorbed by melanin in the skin, breaking down pigment particles and leading to a more even skin tone. This is particularly beneficial for individuals with sunspots, age spots, or other forms of hyperpigmentation.

Improved Skin Tone

The exfoliating effect of carbon laser treatment helps improve overall skin tone by removing dead skin cells and promoting the growth of new, healthy skin cells. This can result in a more even complexion.

Reduction of Acne and Acne Scars

Carbon laser treatment is sometimes used to address active acne and acne scars. The exfoliating action of the laser can help unclog pores, reduce acne lesions, and improve the appearance of acne scars over time.

Minimal Downtime

Carbon laser treatment is often associated with minimal downtime. Patients can typically resume their normal activities shortly after the procedure. This makes it a convenient option for individuals with busy lifestyles.

Stimulates Collagen Renewal

The laser-induced thermal effect stimulates collagen renewal, which contributes to the skin’s firmness and resilience. This is beneficial for improving overall skin health and reducing signs of aging.
