Skin Resurfacing Lasers: Smoother, Younger-Looking Skin with a Beam of Light

HST

If you’re looking for a way to turn back the clock on your skin, you may have considered skin resurfacing lasers. These powerful devices use concentrated beams of light to remove damaged skin cells and stimulate collagen production, resulting in a smoother, younger-looking complexion. One of the most popular types of skin resurfacing lasers is the fractional CO2 laser. Fractional CO2 lasers create tiny, microscopic wounds in the skin. These wounds trigger the body’s natural healing process, which produces new collagen and elastin. As a result, the treated skin becomes firmer, plumper, and more even-toned. What can fractional CO2 lasers treat? Wrinkles and fine lines Acne scars Sun damage Age spots Large pores Uneven skin tone Stretch marks What are the benefits of fractional CO2 laser treatment?

Ultherapy: A Non-Surgical Facelift

HST

Ultherapy is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that uses ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production and lift and tighten loose skin, resulting in a more lifted face and neck. It is the only FDA-cleared procedure that lifts the skin on the neck, chin, and brow and improves lines and wrinkles on the upper chest. How Ultherapy Works Ultherapy works by delivering microfocused ultrasound energy to the deep layers of the skin, where it creates tiny thermal lesions. These thermal lesions stimulate the production of new collagen, which helps to tighten and lift the skin. Collagen is a protein that gives skin its structure and elasticity. As we age, our bodies produce less collagen, and our skin begins to sag and wrinkle. The treatment is also able to target the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS), which is the layer of connective tissue that provides support to the skin. Benefits of Ultherapy Ultherapy has several benefits, including: It is a non-surgical procedure, so there is no downtime or recovery time. It is a Continue Reading

Nasolabial Folds: Causes, Prevention, and Treatment

HST

What are nasolabial folds? Nasolabial folds, also known as laugh lines, are the creases that run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth. They are a natural part of the aging process, but they can become more noticeable over time as the skin loses elasticity and volume. What causes nasolabial folds? Nasolabial folds are caused by a combination of factors, including: Loss of skin elasticity: As we age, our skin naturally loses collagen and elastin, which are the proteins that keep it firm and elastic. This can lead to the formation of wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds. Volume loss: Over time, we also lose volume in our faces, especially in the cheeks and temples. This can cause the skin to sag, which can make nasolabial folds more noticeable. Gravity: Gravity also plays a role in the formation of nasolabial folds. As we age, our skin becomes less able to resist the pull of gravity, which can cause it to sag and form folds. Facial Continue Reading
