Surgical vs non surgical face lift: how do they compare?

Non surgical face lifts provide more natural results to rejuvenate the face without the complications. Though the results are more subtle, achieving a refreshed younger look is very possible without surgery.

Most people consider a more discrete non surgical approach an advantage because they do not want it obvious they have had work done.

What are the pros and cons of a surgical vs non surgical face lift?

A non surgical face lift avoids the risks of surgery.

Though the skill level for surgical face lifts is very high there is always inherent risks with surgery.

Bruising and risk of infection after the operation, risk of scaring and risks associated with anaesthetic.

A non surgical face lift avoids complications of surgery: there is no risk of scars and though bruising does occur, it is insignificant compared to full face surgery.

Recovery from non surgical face lift is quick.

Recovering from a surgical face lift will generally take 4- 6 weeks with careful nurturing of wounds, bruising and swelling. However if the post surgery period is complicated it can involve months rather than weeks.

Non surgical face lifts however can be performed in lunch hours or after work. Though it is advised to take one to three days off after the procedure, some people return to work the next day with concealer to camouflage any bruising.

Non surgical face lifts give a very natural result.

A Surgical face lift can last 7-10 years, however the results are variable and more often will dramatically change how your intrinsic look. Some people dislike the tight and permanent surprised appearance that can occur after the procedure.

Non surgical face lift:

rejuvenation effects temporary so you need to look at top ups to maintain a refreshed appearance

results are more subtle but effective

does not alter your basic appearance but enhances your face with a more youthful and fresh look.

Non surgical face lift involves a combination of muscle relaxing treatments and dermal fillers.

Facial redness is a common cause of concern for people. Perhaps because redness is associated with embarrassment it can become a real cosmetic and social concern and though harmless people actively seek treatments to reduce redness.

What causes facial redness?

Redness of the face occurs when small vessels normally located under the skin rise to the surface. The vessels can present in a variety of forms and from different causes:

1. Facial rosacea: redness from rosacea is in fact from a permanent dilation of small blood vessels under the skin. It presents initially as a tendency to flush easily, but progresses over years to a permanent state with red blotches or spots or more commonly diffuse facial redness.

Facial rosacea affects the nose, cheeks and chin more prominently and though the underlying cause is not really understood treatment of the redness from rosacea is the same as for other vessel causes.

2. Broken capillaries appear as isolated red spots or diffuse redness affecting the cheeks, nose, chin and even cause the red neck and chest we characteristically see in Australia. They are caused from sun damage.

3. Spider veins are a common cause of redness around the nose, on cheeks and chest. They tend to be more isolated and present as a red line on the face or start burst red spots on the cheeks and chest. These are also caused from sun damage and other trauma to the skin.

How to reduce facial redness?

Reducing facial redness involves treating the underlying cause, ie getting rid of the surface vessel and is most effectively achieved with intense pulsed light treatments.

How does Pulsed light treatments treat surface capillaries and reduce redness?

Intense pulsed light therapy is a revolutionary treatment using only visible light pulsed onto the skin. The light is absorbed by elements with colour in the skin, ie the red from the blood vessels. Once the light energy hits the vessels it turns to heat energy and shuts the vessel down.

Generally 4 treatments are effective to reduce face redness to a cosmetically acceptable level. It is possible to eliminate the vessels completely or at the very least see a vast reduction in number and size giving a very satisfactory cosmetic outcome.

NEW TREATMENTS to get rid of hand wrinkles: for younger rejuvenated hands.

Hand wrinkles betray our age just as much as wrinkles on the face. Until recently there was little available in non invasive cosmetic treatments to treat wrinkling hands, however dermal fillers are now used to effectively restore hands to a more youthful state.

Causes of wrinkling of hands.

Because hands have less fat coverage to start with, they age more quickly, taking on a thin boney appearance, or a dry wrinkled appearance. These changes are principally from fat loss and sun damage.

Wrinkle fillers replace volume loss to rejuvenate hand appearance.

Because the underlying cause of the aged appearance to hands is volume loss, no amount of hand creams will help. To rejuvenate hands you need something to replace the volume. Wrinkle fillers are now being injected into the backs of the hands to replace volume, hydrate skin and restore a more youthful plumpness.

Intense Pulsed Light therapy is a laser like treatment used to:

1. reduce signs of premature aging of the skin: smooth fine lines and reduce enlarged pores.
2. get rid of unwanted pigmentation: freckles, sun spots and liver spots and some forms of birth marks.
3. reduce redness of the face from surface veins, broken capillaries and rosacea

With a series of treatments referred to as intense pulsed light photorejuvenaton you will see significant decrease in pigmentation, unwanted surface capillaries and redness and a revitalised skin that appears smoother and more glowing. It can be used effectively on the face, neck, chest and hands.

The advantages of Intense pulsed light treatment

unlike laser resurfacing there is no surface burning or prolonged healing

it treats multiple skin conditions at one time: pigmentation, surface veins and capillaries and texture and quality changes from sun damage are all addressed, unlike laser treatment, which may require different types of lasers

What does Intense pulsed light mean?

It can get confusing with all the terms referring to intense pulsed light. IPL is perhaps the best known and simply refers to a laser like technology using light of specific wavelengths to bring about therapeutic changes in the skin. We use S IPL pulsed light technology because we believe it is more comfortable and gives superior results.

Benefits Of Intense Pulsed Light Treatments

softens fine wrinkles and renews skin health: by stimulating new collagen production

improves the appearance of the skin: by reducing pore size and skin roughness

improves the colour of the skin: removing freckles and fading skin pigmentation

reduces redness: by treating broken capillaries and rosacea
