Have you started to notice some signs of age showing on your face? Over time life takes its toll, from sun damage to laugh lines. These may be signs of a life well lived, but you still have a lot of living left to do. Do you want to reverse the effects of aging so that you look as young as you feel? A premier Medspa in Portland takes a comprehensive approach to anti-aging, providing a variety of treatments that can work together to improve your facial aesthetics.
Establish Your Goals
The first step in your anti-aging journey should be a consultation with your skin care professional. During this consultation you will discuss your goals for your appearance. If there are specific areas you would like to target for improvement, be open and honest about it. Feelings and emotions about aging can be difficult to process, but voicing your concerns is the best way to start making positive changes that will help you achieve your goals.
Create a Comprehensive Plan for Treatment
After your initial consultation, a comprehensive plan for facial treatments can be created that will address the specific goals you have for your appearance. Your treatment plan may include any one or a combination of the following facial aesthetic treatments.
- Botox and other neuromodulators. Botox is an injectable neurotoxin that relaxes the muscles of the face to smooth lines and wrinkles. It is mostly used on the forehead and around the eyes. Other neuromodulators work the same way, such as Dysport and Jeuveau.
- Juvederm and other dermal fillers. Juvederm is an injectable dermal filler that restores lost volume in the facial tissues. This and other dermal fillers such as Sculptra contain hyaluronic acid that stimulates natural collagen production.
- Skincare and facial treatments. Non-injectable skincare and facial treatments provide a needle-free option for improving your facial aesthetics. DiamondGlow and Hydrodermabrasion exfoliate and hydrate the skin to restore the natural glow and minimize the appearances of lines and wrinkles.
- PRP. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) uses a sample of your own blood that is specially treated to rejuvenate skin using growth factors to stimulate collagen production.
- Radiofrequency microneedling. Using radio waves to stimulate the skin in conjunction with microneedling, the facial tissues are sculpted and contoured for enhanced facial appearance.
Receive Facial Treatments on a Regular Schedule
Most anti-aging treatments require periodic retreatment to maintain your results. A custom schedule can be created for you to receive treatments with the best possible results. Some treatments last longer than others, so the ideal schedule depends on the type of facial treatments you receive.
As your journey progresses you may find that you don’t need treatments as frequently. Your facial tissues will gradually increase their natural production of collagen and the lines and wrinkles will become smoother and less noticeable. Your plan may also change to include different types of facial treatments as your needs change. Aging is a constantly evolving process and frequent updates to your treatment plan can help you achieve your goals and maintain your youthful appearance.
