Addressing visible signs of ageing on the body

14 Jul 2022

In the pursuit of maintaining skin integrity and addressing the visible signs of aging, it’s essential to understand how various factors contribute to skin laxity and the available treatments that can enhance overall skin appearance.

Skin across the body is akin to silk; ideally, we aim to preserve its original condition. Yet, once damaged, it cannot be restored to its original state. Unlike silk, we cannot keep our bodies sheltered from life’s wear and tear. While engaging in activities that bring joy—such as sports or childbirth—can lead to physical changes, it’s crucial to focus on prevention.

Skin laxity is a common indicator of aging, resulting from decreased levels of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, typically beginning in the mid-30s to 40s. This issue is not limited to the face; it affects the entire body. One treatment for combating skin laxity is Renuvion.

The Renuvion device combines ionised helium gas with radiofrequency energy to create helium plasma. This innovative technology delivers heat and reactive particles that alter the dermis and underlying structures, resulting in firmer skin with a reduced crepey appearance.

A significant advantage of plasma energy is its precision compared to laser treatments, making Renuvion Body Contouring an option that minimises the potential for damage to surrounding tissue.

This procedure is beneficial for anyone experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity due to aging, weight loss, or pregnancy. It is also an excellent choice for individuals considering liposuction, as it can help prevent post-operative loose skin. Some patients may notice immediate improvements, with results continuing to enhance over time.

If you are experiencing concerns related to cellulite, stretch marks, scarring, loose skin, or other signs of aging, several treatments are available that may address these conditions. To explore our comprehensive range of options, schedule a consultation with one of our nurses. They would be delighted to assist you in identifying the best treatments for your needs.

It’s essential to understand that any cosmetic surgical or invasive procedure carries inherent risks and potential complications. Therefore, we strongly advise taking the time to conduct thorough research, educate yourself, and consider seeking a second opinion from a qualified practitioner to make informed decisions.
