Wrinkles, under-eye bags, and sun spots? No thanks! Beauties, we’re all for a fresh and glowing face—but without resorting to surgery.
As it happens, non-surgical, minimally invasive cosmetic procedures are Dr. Costi’s speciality, and he’s passionate about enhancing a patient’s natural beauty without dramatically altering their appearance. We asked our favorite dermatologist to help us explore various treatments and tips to address common skin concerns and maintain a youthful and radiant complexion.
To address forehead wrinkles, injectables can be a fantastic solution. Dr. Costi recommends Botox to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and dermal fillers to restore lost volume. Additionally, Profilho, a popular non-surgical treatment, can improve skin laxity and target signs of aging.
To ensure you get the best results, book your appointment early, especially if you have a special event on the horizon.
Another option to consider is laser treatment, such as Ultherapy. This technique uses ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the forehead and brow area, offering a non-invasive way to achieve a more youthful appearance.
For those concerned about neck and jowl sagging, the Nefertiti Lift is an excellent non-invasive procedure. It involves injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin (Botox) into the neck muscles, which run vertically from the jawline to the collarbone. This can create a lifting effect and help define the jawline, with results lasting up to a year.
Alternatively, radiofrequency microneedling is a new non-invasive treatment that can help tone and sculpt the face. This procedure involves tiny needles that deliver radiofrequency energy, inducing heat in the dermis to stimulate collagen and elastin production. It’s an effective way to achieve a fresher, brighter complexion.
If you’re seeking to increase skin elasticity, Ultherapy might be the right choice for you. This treatment uses micro-focused ultrasound to stimulate collagen production at three different levels of the skin. It’s non-invasive and requires just a topical anesthetic. Ultherapy is effective for tightening and smoothing skin on the upper and lower face, neck, and décolletage.
Drooping or sagging eyelids can be hereditary, but there are non-surgical solutions to lift and firm this area. Products containing caffeine can help reduce under-eye puffiness due to their anti-inflammatory properties. Look for serums and creams with this ingredient to address under-eye bags and sagging eyelids.
Chemical peels are a safe and popular non-surgical procedure to combat skin damage and rejuvenate the complexion. Dr. Costi recommends chemical peels as an entry point to aesthetic treatments. They can dramatically reduce the effects of sun damage and other environmental factors. For best results, combine chemical peels with a healthy lifestyle—avoid smoking and excessive tanning for a glowing, youthful appearance.
This wide range of services including facial aesthetic treatments and aesthetic medicine can improve the tone and elasticity of saggy skin and tend to be most effective if they’re combined with healthy lifestyle choices, such as not smoking cigarettes and never tanning.
