Components of Non-surgical facelift:

Every nonsurgical facelift is custom-made that is tailored to the specific needs of clients.

Dermal Fillers:

These are the cornerstones of the non-invasive facelifts and are highly recommended. Dermal fillers are smooth gel-like injectable material that can restore the volume around the cheeks, eyes, lips and temples etc. When the sunken eyes get a plump look and dark circles get eliminated, you can have a youthful vibrancy. These fillers are made up of products like moisture rich Hyaluronic Acid. The plumping and smoothing of dermal fillers last for a year and so

.

Botox:

Another important piece of the non-surgical facelift is Botox which can smooth out the wrinkles, forehead creases, crow’s feet and the frown lines.  Botox can work wonders on any type of wrinkles. It is very relaxing to the targeted muscles and frown lines. However, these injections do not provide immediate relief; patients begin to see the impact in a week or two and the benefits last for 3 months.

Fat Injections:

These are semi-invasive procedure in which fatty tissues are extracted with the help of liposuction on different areas. These fat cells are cleaned thoroughly, processed and then re-injected into the face to enhance the facial volume. The living cells tend to integrate with the existing tissues resulting in a youthful appearance that lasts for years.

There is another skin tightening treatment which is much in demand and works effectively. HIFU body skin tightening makes use of focused ultrasound energy for targeting the deep layers of skin. When this energy heats up the tissues, there is an increased production of collagen which means tighter, firmer skin with fewer wrinkles.
