Best facial treatments for ageing skin
Ageing is something we all experience, and while some love to embrace the changes that come with age, others may look for ways to reduce them. In this blog, we’re telling you about the best facial treatments for ageing skin.
You should protect your skin as much as you can. This can be achieved through a good skincare routine, using sun protection daily and generally maintaining self-care. Protecting the skin can lead to a more refreshed complexion as the skin ages.
How does the skin age?
When we are younger, our bodies produce a lot of collagen and elastin. These proteins help to keep the complexion fresh and support skin elasticity. From the age of 20, the production of these proteins slows down. The production decreases by around 1% every year from the age of 20. This is one of the contributing factors to skin ageing. Some individuals choose to use supplements or other products to boost collagen production and improve the appearance of the skin. The facial muscles used when you express emotions can also cause wrinkles.
Signs of ageing skin
Ageing affects areas of the body differently. For example, you may have ageing hands, an ageing face, or generally aged skin. Ageing can be characterised by several different things, such as:
- Sagging skin
- Wrinkles
- Fine lines
- Thin & pale skin (epidermis (skin’s surface) and dermis)
- Dry skin & itchiness
There are, of course, many other signs of ageing that you may experience, though these are some of the most common. In addition to the above, we may experience more acne scars, sun damage, stretch marks, broken capillaries, or other general skin concerns with age. These are all part of the ageing process and show a person’s natural beauty.
As we mentioned, some people love to embrace ageing, while others may look for ways to combat these signs. The good news is that many skin treatments can help with aging skin if that is your goal.
Best facial treatments for ageing skin
Dermal fillers
Dermal fillers have become more popular in recent years, as they can be used to create a fuller complexion. The dermal fillers treatment involves hyaluronic acid being injected into various areas of the face to add volume. This can be used to treat a number of concerns, including reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Typically, dermal fillers are used as an ongoing facial treatment to maintain the desired look. Your therapist at our beauty clinic in Blackpool can advise you on the ideal frequency of this treatment.
Accent XL Radio Frequency treatment
Our Accent XL Radio Frequency treatment is non-invasive, making it a popular choice for those wanting to reduce the signs of ageing. The treatment works by breaking down fat, which increases collagen and tones the skin, reducing sagging and cellulite. This method has long-lasting results after just a few treatments.
HydraFacial
The HydraFacial treatment is completely bespoke so that we can target any skin concerns specifically. The treatment involves exfoliation to remove dead skin cells, followed by the use of high-quality serums to reduce the signs of ageing.
Just one treatment can leave you with a brighter complexion, but more appointments can be booked to treat more stubborn concerns. You can just sit back and relax when it comes to having a HydraFacial.
Microneedling
Microneedling uses a roller device containing tiny needles that gently prick the skin. This encourages the body to repair the skin, which boosts collagen and elastin production.
The microneedling treatment can be used more regularly to reduce acne scarring and skin hyperpigmentation. It can also help to rehydrate the skin, which will naturally leave you feeling brighter.
Skin peels
Over time, the skin can be damaged by many things. A skin peel helps exfoliate the skin and remove dead skin cells. This leads to the reveal of a much brighter and more hydrated complexion.
The peels stimulate new collagen production, which means your complexion continues to look more even and healthy after the treatment too. For the best results, multiple sessions may be necessary.
IV Therapy
IV Therapy involves receiving vitamins and nutrients through an IV. For example, vitamin C can often promote a healthier complexion. The IV option is great as the fluids are injected straight into the bloodstream, allowing for higher absorption. Some people report feeling more refreshed immediately after the treatment, while others feel better after a few days. These treatments can help you feel less tired while leaving your skin hydrated.
