As we age, our faces develop fine lines and wrinkles. When we’re young, our fat is spread evenly across our faces, with small pockets in places like our temples, cheeks, forehead, and around the mouth and eyes. But as time goes on, the fat begins to lose volume, bunching up and moving downwards, making the skin less firm and pliable. This redistribution of fat leads to a hollowed appearance in certain areas, particularly around the eyes and cheeks. The decreased volume accentuates the formation of wrinkles and fine lines, making them more pronounced.
Weight Gain in Specific Areas
Simultaneously, certain areas of our faces gain weight that leads to a drooping neck or a saggy chin. This localized weight gain is often due to the natural aging process and changes in our body’s fat distribution. The accumulation of fat in these areas can create a heavier, less defined jawline and contribute to a tired or aged appearance. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and diet can help mitigate these effects, but some degree of change is inevitable with age.
Dehydration and Fat Layer Reduction
Moreover, the skin becomes dehydrated and the layer of fat underneath decreases, making the face appear less supple and smoother. Dehydration is a common issue as we age because our skin loses its ability to retain moisture effectively. This dryness exacerbates the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well-hydrated skin appears plumper and more youthful. Using hydrating skincare products and drinking plenty of water can help maintain skin hydration levels, but the reduction of the underlying fat layer remains a significant factor in the aging process.
Accumulation of Fat in Eye Sockets
Additionally, an accumulation of fat can build up in your eye sockets, which may cause your upper eyelids to sag and give the appearance of droopy eyes. This condition not only affects the appearance of the eyes but can also impair vision in severe cases. The sagging of the upper eyelids can make one look older and more tired. This can also lead to under-eye bags and lower eyelashes sagging. Droopy eyelids occur when the supporting muscle on the upper eyelid weakens. Strengthening the muscles around the eyes through specific exercises and treatments can help improve the appearance of droopy eyelids and under-eye bags.
Non-surgical skin lifting treatments can enhance the elasticity and appearance of the skin, resulting in a youthful look. By utilizing these safe medical cosmetic procedures, a non-invasive facelift can be achieved with impressive results after the session.
Treatments For Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Injectable Neurotoxins (BTX)
BTX is introduced to make angular jaw lines smoother and enhance the appearance of frown lines around the eyebrows, ranging from mild to severe. BTX therapy enables you to resume your everyday routine right away without any interruptions or downtime. There’s no need for you to remain in a hospital or care center for recovery because this procedure is completely safe. A few people even have this operation in between their lunch break and promptly head back to work afterward.
Profhilo
Profhilo is hydrates and rejuvenates the skin, lifting saggy skin and older tissues, making it a potent anti-aging solution. It contains the highest amount of pure hyaluronic acid available in the market and is composed of tough cooperative hybrid complexes that combine both low and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid.
If you use low molecular weight products, your skin will become hydrated and plump, giving off a “Hydro effect”. Conversely, high molecular weight products will result in a “Lifting effect” by improving the construction of the dermal HA.
How Is Profhilo Treatment Performed?
To decrease any pain or discomfort, a numbing cream is put on the treatment area for 15 minutes before therapy. An ice pack is also used during the therapy to further numb the injection spots.
The innovative Profhilo therapy involves injecting into ten important Bio Aesthetic Points on the face, which reduces bruising and improves outcomes by avoiding blood vessels and nerves.
