Facelifts without surgery – do they work?

It’s hard to “un-see” the train-wreck of a face-lift-gone-wrong. Its even harder to credit the list of celebrities guilty of falling into the trap of permanently surprised eyebrows, mis-shapen eyes & smiles that would rival Heath Ledger’s Joker, in ‘The Dark Knight’. 

---

Avoid the big price tags

Facelifts without surgery – do they work? A surgical price tag in the thousands puts that likelihood of surgical disaster beyond most of our reach but many of us would benefit from a subtle, tweak and tightening to help the battle with gravity, faced by our brows & jowls – that’s where Pollogen’s Tri-Lipo technology comes in. Non-surgical facelifts & eyelifts are affordable, highly effective & produce a natural, lift and tightening effect, without the surgeons, scars & downtime.

 

How does Facelifts without surgery ‘non-surgical facelifts’ work?

Radio Frequency (RF) heat is delivered from a hand-piece. This heats through the dermis, deep into subcutaneous layers of the skin. This starts to release fat cells.
While the hand-piece massages down on the skin, safe blasts of energy stimulate dynamic muscle activation (DMA), lifting the layer of muscle, squeezing the fat layer and releasing more fat cells.

Stimulate & harness the body’s metabolism

• Heat from the RF coupled with the massaging effect, accelerate natural lymphatic drainage, encouraging your body to metabolise & remove the fat naturally.
• Additionally, the RF heats collagen in the connective tissue, causing it to firm up, immediately smoothing & tightening the skin.
• At the same time the RF stimulates fibroblasts in the connective tissue to create more collagen, aiding longer-term regeneration & rejuvenation.

 

Immediate & longer lasting results

Results can be seen almost immediately but 4-6 treatments, at 2 to 4 weeks apart are recommended for a longer lasting effect – usually between six and twelve months, which can be topped-up with maintenance treatments, as required.

 

Cruelty free…tested on business owners!

Pollogen’s Tri-lipo technology is proven in 60 countries around the world & stars at Results Laser Clinic for a range of smoothing, tightening & sculpting techniques, ever since Results Laser Clinic’s founder & owner famously got on a plane, flying 18 hours to Pollogen’s Head Quarters, to trial the technology & returned raving about the results.

Know your peel – a Guide to Chemical Skin Peels

Know your Peel- Chemical peels are a medical grade weapon in the battle for perfect skin but how do they work & which one is right for you?

Chemical Skin Peels can target dull complexion, uneven skin tone, skin ageing, pigmentation marks & blemishes, they can even tackle acne head-on, revealing luminous & radiant skin. Let’s go a little deeper into the world of chemical peels to discover what each peel does, to aid that choice of which peel is right for you!

---

What is a chemical skin peel?

A chemical peel is the application of a safe chemical solution, which penetrates through the top layer of skin, performing 3 main actions:

• Deeply exfoliates, removing dead and damaged skin cells
• Targets specific areas; e.g. treating toxins, oil, bacteria & imperfections below the skins surface
• Stimulates collagen production

What happens on the surface?

Similar to a snake shedding its skin, after a chemical peel we often loose our top layer of dead skin, revealing the new skin underneath, resulting in a smoother complexion. When peels are in action it’s easy to achieve these immediate and visible results

• Smoothes skin
• Reduces fine lines & wrinkles
• Reduces congestion & pore size
• Brightens dull/lifeless skin
• Evens skin tone
• Reduces pigmentation & blemishes

So, what happens beneath the surface?

Depending on the peel recommended to you by our clinical therapists, your cells will go through some changes that will help treat your skin priorities from inside & out.

Skin Needling: Pen vs. Roller, which is best?

Which is better when it comes to Skin Needling: Pen vs. Roller? Discover the differences, benefits, and which option is best for your skin.

 

What is skin needling?

Skin Needling is rising in popularity for those in pursuit of the perfect skin. This skin resurfacing treatment is effective on uneven skin, scarring & age lines alike. The needling part refers to the tiny surgical needles, which are used to lightly puncture the skin, breaking down bumps, scar tissue & age lines. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing processes including the natural production of new collagen. The result is a new, smoother skin surface.

 

Skin Needling: Pen vs. Roller. But what holds the needles you ask?

There are two technologies: The DERMAL ROLLER  is a mechanical device with surgical Micro Needles protruding from a wheel. This is rolled up and down the affected area. The upside is the simplicity, the downside is that it can create ‘tearing’ wounds, as the roller moves forward, leading the needle to exit the skin at an angle, which can be quite painful.

 

The  NEEDLING PEN contains surgical micro needles, on a motorised head. Rather rather than using a rolling action, the Dermapen moves the needles in and out at a rate of about 1000 times per second, delivering tiny vertical punctures, creating less trauma to the epidermis. The head can be adjusted to vary the depth to which the needles penetrate the skin.

 

Where do I get Clinical Skin Needling?

Results Laser Clinic uses the Needling Pen at their 40 clinics nationwide. All treatments are performed by our expert therapists. Book a free, no-commitment consultation, to find out more & whether Skin Needling will help achieve the goals you’ve set for your skin.

 

Resurface & Repair your skin

Skin Needling can help improve skin texture & reduce the size of open pores, in just one treatment. 4-6 treatments are usually needed for severe acne scarring or age lines. Spring is a perfect time to craft your look for the summer & parties ahead.

Summer’s coming, how do we feel about our stretchmarks?

Its official – Skin blemishes are a confidence crusher^**

Stretchmarks can be a contributing factor in post-natal depression, at the very least many plan their wardrobe around covering them up.

---

Stretchmarks can happen to anyone

Stretchmarks can arrive with pregnancy, weight-gain, growth spurts, illness or steroid use. They can be accompanied by a feeling that appearance has been compromised and blown out of proportion by  ‘cognitive distortion’ which is when the brain over-rides judgment, common sense making it appear worse than it really is!

A problem shared

There are powerful and inspiring #bodypositivemovements, which are helping to reduce the feeling of social isolation for those traumatised by the change in their bodies but there are some who will always find action more empowering than acceptance. That’s where Fractional RF Laser comes in.

 

Does it work?

Fractional RF Laser has been around since 2004 & is most effective for treatment of stretchmarks. It has been shown to have 50-75% improvement in appearance of stretch marks, after 6-10 treatments^***.Actual results which have been achieved are shared below.

What is Fractional RF Laser?

A grid of micro-needles, penetrate the skin & heat the targeted area with radio frequency (RF) energy. This creates micro-wounds that stimulate the body’s natural healing process, encourage collagen production & regenerate healthy skin tissue. Treatment leaves behind a signature grid pattern of tiny marks which will heal over the next 7-10 days, and fade in around 2 weeks. Fractional RF Laser is often followed by a session of advanced LED light therapy to assist with healing & stimulating collagen production.

 

How much does it cost?

Treatment costs around $400 for an area approximately the size of an iphone.

Does it hurt?

It’s tolerable but the pain factor is worth it for the results!

 

Fractional RF Laser and many others treatments are performed by the highly trained therapists at Results Laser Clinic – Australia’s most trusted provider of laser, skin and Cosmetic Injectable treatments.

Is your skin bringing your selfie game down? Skin Needling for Acne scars

It’s official, acne is one of the most crushing blows to self-esteem. Studies have shown that people suffering from acne are up to 3 times more likely to suffer from depression than any other medical condition*.

Without descending deeper into depression, the fall out from acne is debatably worse – from red & brown ‘macular’ scars, which generally fade with time to boxcar & ice-pick scars which leave pitted, uneven skin. Skin Needling for Acne scars is a possible treatment option available at all of our clinics.

---

Good news, if your skin is making you retake more selfies than you are posting, there is a range of effective treatments to improve the appearance of scarring, also used for age lines & uneven skin texture. Skin Needling is becoming more & more popular for skin resurfacing but why?

 

What is Skin Needling?

Much spruiked as a rejuvenation & beauty treatments for celebs, Skin Needling can produce excellent results on acne scarring & age lines alike. Skin needling uses a pen, containing tiny surgical needles on a motorized head, used to lightly puncture the skin, breaking down scar tissue. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing processes including the production of new collagen. The result is a new, smoother skin surface.

The process is often followed with a short session of Advanced LED Light Therapy treatment to sooth & aid the healing process. Actual results that have been achieved with this process are shared below.

 

What is Skin Needling for Acne scars recovery time?

The treated area is covered with tiny punctures & scratches, which can leave it red. This usually fades within 24-48 hours. Anywhere between 4-6 treatments are usually required.

 

Clinical Skin Needling vs. Fractional RF Laser?

Everyone’s skin is different. Fractional RF Laser is very effective in treatment of pitted scarring & stretchmarks.

Skin Needling can produce excellent results on acne scarring & has four benefits over Fractional RF Laser.

• It is less painful, especially since numbing cream is applied to the skin prior to treatment.
• Recovery time is shorter & does not leave then trademark Fractional RF “grid stamp”, which takes 7-10 days to heal.
• Its is less expensive, around half the cost for a similar sized area.
• Skin Needling is also effective on those with darker skins.
