One-time treatments to invest in

As any working woman would attest, time is a luxury not everyone can afford to have. With the clock working against you, it seems one is resigned to accept the fate that the hands of time have in store for you, particularly when it comes to aging.

Not anymore.

No time? No problem. We have curated a list of antiaging treatments you can commit to at least once a year, even less frequent than your bi-annual visit to the dentist or monthly trip to your hair stylist, to rejuvenate and refresh your look without interfering with your busy schedule.

Thermage

Using radiofrequency waves, Thermage is a premium non-invasive skin rejuvenation and tightening procedure that penetrates deep into the skin to stimulate your body’s natural renewal of collagen. This results in overall skin tightening and contouring.

This treatment is FDA-approved for the non-invasive treatment of facial wrinkles. It is also the only system which is FDA-approved for non-invasive treatment of the eyelids.

Thermage does not require any incisions or downtime from daily activities and can help to smoothen out wrinkles, improve skin texture, improve the appearance of jowls and better define jawlines.

The procedure can take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the area that needs to be treated. This is a very quick procedure which can even be done during a lunch hour.

Your skin should feel tighter and smoother after the treatments, with additional tightening occurring over time, with a refreshed new look gradually occuring over a 3 to 6 month period. Results of the Thermage procedure could last anywhere from two years to longer and varies depending on the individual’s aging process.

Ultherapy

Ultherapy is a non-surgical skin tightening, firming and lifting treatment and is touted as a breakthrough procedure as it uses medical ultrasound for non-surgical cosmetic improvement of the skin. It works deep below the surface to achieve long-lasting benefits of facial firming, skin tightening and lifting.

This treatment can help to create a more refreshed look around the eyes, such as lifting of the brow line to reduce droopiness on the eyelids and smoothing of crows’ feet.

Ultherapy can also be used to treat sagging skin on the cheeks by tightening and lifting the skin around this area, improving the folds and drooping corners. Patients have reported a more defined jaw line and overall improvement in skin texture and evenness of colour.

Silhouette InstaLift

Without requiring any incisions or stitches, Silhouette InstaLift offers instant gratification to those who are concerned with sagging skin and lines and wrinkles. Using 100% bio-absorbable threads which are strategically placed under the skin, these threads help to stimulate the skin’s own collagen production that results in a smoother, firmer appearance of the treated areas. Much praise have been given to this treatment for its immediate lifting effect and its regenerating effect.

The procedure itself takes approximately 30 minutes, with local anaesthetic used to numb the area. The Silhouette Instalift thread is held in place by innovative absorbable cones that suspends and lifts saggy tissues to its optimal position. Over time, the threads are absorbed by the body which helps to stimulate collagen production and restore skin’s firmness.

Silhouette Instalift can be used on different parts of the face, such as lower jaw, cheeks and cheekbones, eyebrows and general facial contour. Patients have reported tighter skin, improved skin texture and renewed facial contours, with the skin on the face and neck becoming firmer and visibly tighter, and because lines and wrinkles are smoothened out with this procedure, patients appear more refreshed and youthful.

The benefits of this treatment can last up to 18 months, depending on the individual’s aging process and their body’s response to the threads.
