ANTI-WRINKLE
Non-Invasive Treatments
HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound)
HIFU is a revolutionary non-invasive treatment that uses ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin. This method is particularly effective for addressing sagging skin and loss of elasticity in the face and neck. By penetrating deep into the tissue, HIFU promotes collagen production, leading to firmer, more youthful skin over time. Patients appreciate the long-lasting results and the absence of surgery, making HIFU a popular option for those seeking a facelift alternative.
Laser Treatments for Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Laser treatments specifically target fine lines and wrinkles using focused light energy to resurface the skin. These advanced procedures promote collagen remodelling, effectively smoothing out wrinkles and improving skin texture. Laser treatments can be tailored to individual skin types and concerns, making them versatile and effective for a wide range of patients. The results are not only cosmetic; they also help enhance the overall health of the skin.
Microneedling
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that utilizes fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing response. This treatment is particularly effective for reducing acne scars and improving overall skin texture and firmness.
RF (Radio-Frequency) Microneedling
RF microneedling combines traditional microneedling with radio-frequency energy to enhance skin tightening and rejuvenation. This treatment not only addresses fine lines and wrinkles but also promotes significant skin tightening. By delivering RF energy deep into the skin while creating micro-injuries, this advanced technique yields impressive results for skin texture and firmness, making it a sought-after option for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
Injectables
Forehead Lines
Forehead lines, also known as horizontal lines, are wrinkles that develop across the forehead due to facial expressions, ageing, and loss of skin elasticity. These lines can create an appearance of stress or fatigue, making individuals look older than they feel. Anti-wrinkle treatments, such as botulinum toxin injections, can smooth these lines, restoring a more youthful look. This treatment not only enhances facial aesthetics but also helps restore confidence by improving overall facial harmony and expression.
Frown Lines
Frown lines, or glabellar lines, are vertical wrinkles that form between the eyebrows due to repeated frowning or squinting. These lines can make a person appear angry or upset, which can affect self-esteem and social interactions. Anti-wrinkle treatments can effectively soften these lines, enhancing facial expressiveness and restoring a more relaxed and approachable look.
Crow's Feet (Lines Around the Eyes)
Crow’s feet are fine lines that develop around the outer corners of the eyes due to smiling, squinting, and aging. These lines can contribute to an aged appearance and may affect confidence. Anti-wrinkle treatments can reduce the depth of these lines and refresh the eye area, providing a more youthful and vibrant look.
Migraine
Botulinum toxin injections are an effective treatment for chronic migraines, providing relief to individuals who suffer from frequent headaches. This procedure can help reduce the frequency and severity of migraine attacks by blocking the transmission of pain signals. Patients often experience a significant decrease in headache days, improving their overall quality of life.
Gummy Smile
A gummy smile occurs when excessive gum tissue is visible when smiling, which can create an unbalanced appearance. Anti-wrinkle treatments can help address this by relaxing the muscles that elevate the upper lip, resulting in a more harmonious smile. This treatment can boost confidence, allowing individuals to smile freely without self-consciousness about their gum exposure.
Neck Lift
A non-surgical neck lift can be achieved using anti-wrinkle treatments to improve the appearance of a sagging neck. This treatment helps tighten and smooth the skin, providing a more youthful and defined neck contour. By addressing signs of ageing in the neck area, patients can achieve a refreshed look without the need for invasive surgery.
Smokers’ Lines
Smokers’ lines are fine vertical lines that develop around the lips, often as a result of smoking, aging, or repetitive facial movements. These lines can detract from the overall appearance of the mouth. Anti-wrinkle treatments can soften these lines and restore a more youthful lip contour, significantly enhancing the aesthetics of the smile.
Bunny Lines (Nasal Squint Lines)
Bunny lines are the small wrinkles that appear on the sides of the nose when a person smiles or scrunches their face. These lines can become more pronounced with age and can detract from a youthful appearance. Anti-wrinkle treatments can effectively reduce the appearance of bunny lines, resulting in a smoother nasal area and enhancing overall facial aesthetics.
Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis)
Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, is a condition characterised by abnormally high sweating, often affecting areas such as the underarms, hands, and feet. Anti-wrinkle treatments can provide effective relief by temporarily blocking the nerves responsible for sweat production, allowing individuals to feel more comfortable and confident in social and professional settings.
Jaw Slimming / Teeth Grinding
Jaw slimming and treatment for teeth grinding (bruxism) involve the use of anti-wrinkle injections to relax the muscles of the jaw. This procedure not only reduces the width of the jawline for aesthetic purposes but also alleviates discomfort associated with teeth grinding. Many patients find relief from tension headaches and jaw pain following treatment, contributing to an overall improvement in quality of life.
At Dr. Nancy’s Clinic, we offer two popular aesthetic treatments: Botulinum Toxin and Azzalure. Both of these injectables are designed to help you achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Botulinum Toxin
Botox is a popular cosmetic treatment that uses Botulinum toxin type A to temporarily relax facial muscles and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. It's commonly used for areas like the forehead, crow's feet, and frown lines. The effects typically last for 3 to 6 months, making it a minimally invasive option for a more youthful appearance. Botox is quick, with little to no downtime, and is widely trusted for aesthetic improvements.
Azzalure
Azzalure is a cutting-edge formulation similar to Botulinum Toxin, designed to provide effective wrinkle reduction. It works by inhibiting muscle contractions, resulting in a smoother complexion. Azzalure is particularly favoured for its precision and longevity, making it an excellent choice for both first-time users and those seeking to enhance their aesthetic results. The treatment is also quick, with minimal discomfort and downtime.
