As a doctor specializing in aesthetic medicine, I am excited to share with you the benefits of facial harmonisation full-face rejuvenation using dermal fillers and collagen stimulators. This advanced non-surgical treatment can effectively restore volume, smooth out wrinkles, and enhance your natural beauty.
In this post, we will explore the various aspects of full-face rejuvenation, the techniques involved, and the remarkable results it can achieve.
What is Facial Harmonisation?
Facial harmonisation is a cosmetic procedure that aims to improve the overall balance and symmetry of the face. By targeting specific areas of the face, such as the nose, eyes, and lips, this treatment aims to refine and rejuvenate the appearance of the face.
The procedure is often referred to as a “full face rejuvenation” or FFR. A comprehensive approach addresses multiple areas of the face to achieve a harmonious and youthful appearance.
It involves the strategic use of dermal fillers and/ or collagen stimulators to target specific concerns such as volume loss, wrinkles, and sagging skin as well as neuromodulators to address lines. By restoring volume and stimulating collagen production, this treatment can effectively reverse the signs of aging and enhance facial contours.
This treatment is designed to enhance the natural beauty of the face and create a more youthful and harmonious appearance. Injectable dermal fillers help restore lost volume, smooth out wrinkles, and enhance facial features. They are commonly used to plump up areas such as the cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds, and under-eye hollows. These fillers are typically composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in our body that attracts and retains moisture. The results of dermal fillers are immediate and can last anywhere from six months to two years, depending on the type of filler used and the area treated.
Collagen stimulators are injectable treatments that work by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. Collagen is a vital protein that provides structural support to the skin, keeping it firm and youthful. Over time, our collagen levels decrease, leading to sagging skin and wrinkles. Collagen stimulators, such as poly-L-lactic acid, trigger the production of new collagen, resulting in long-term improvements in skin texture and tightness. The results of collagen stimulators develop gradually over several months and can last up to two years or more.
Neuromodulators work by temporarily relaxing facial muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and preventing new ones from forming. By targeting dynamic wrinkles, such as crow’s feet and frown lines, these injections can help achieve a smoother and more youthful look.
Another popular technique used in full-face rejuvenation is laser skin resurfacing. This procedure utilizes targeted laser energy to stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and reduce the appearance of scars, pigmentation, and fine lines. By promoting the growth of new, healthy skin cells, laser resurfacing can leave you with a rejuvenated and more youthful complexion.
It is important to note that full-face rejuvenation procedures are typically non-surgical, meaning they require minimal downtime and produce natural-looking results.
A Treatment with Proven Benefits
Facial harmonisation offers a wide range of benefits, making it a highly sought after procedure for both men and women. Some of the key benefits include:
- Enhanced Contours: By injecting dermal fillers into specific areas of the face, such as the cheeks, jawline, and lips, facial harmonisation can create more defined and youthful contours. This can help to restore balance and enhance the overall symmetry of the face.
- Reduced Wrinkles: Neuromodulator injections can relax the muscles in the face, resulting in smoother and more youthful-looking skin. This treatment is particularly effective in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, particularly in the forehead and around the eyes, enhancing and opening up the eyes, or treating a gummy smile
- Increased Confidence: Many individuals who undergo facial harmonisation report feeling more confident and self-assured after treatment. While individual experiences may vary, many patients report feeling more confident and refreshed after undergoing this transformative treatment.
How long does the effect of a Facial Harmonisation last?
The duration of the effect of a facial harmonisation treatment can vary depending on individual factors, such as the type of products used and the individual’s metabolism. On average, the effects of dermal fillers can last anywhere from six to twelve months. As dermal fillers never disappear completely, subsequent treatments or “touch-ups” require a lot less filler and therefore are less costly; offering a sustainable option for keeping up a refreshed and more youthful appearance if that is what makes you feel better, Neuromodulator injections results typically last around 3 to 4 months and need to be touched up more often
Care before and after the Treatment
To ensure a smooth and successful facial harmonisation treatment, it is important to follow certain care guidelines before and after the procedure:
- Pre-Treatment Consultation: It is important to have a pre-treatment consultation with a qualified professional to discuss your desired outcome, medical history, and any potential concerns.
- Postpone Certain Medications: Certain medications, such as blood thinners and certain vitamins, may interact with dermal fillers and Botox. It is recommended to consult with your physician before stopping any medication.
- Avoid Sunburn: It is advisable to avoid excessive sun exposure or tanning before and after treatment. Sunburn can cause temporary redness and swelling, which can affect the outcome of the treatment.
- Follow Aftercare Instructions: Your healthcare professional will provide you with specific aftercare instructions, such as applying ice or avoiding certain activities. It is important to follow these instructions to ensure optimal healing and results.
In conclusion, facial harmonisation is a cosmetic procedure that can help you achieve a more harmonious and balanced appearance. With its proven benefits and long-lasting effects, this treatment can enhance your natural beauty and boost your self-confidence. It is essential to consult with a healthcare professional who is trained in facial harmonisation and discuss your goals and concerns before making a decision.
A full-face rejuvenation does not refer to a packaged product, but instead to several treatments tailored to your age, ethnicity, and anatomy in a single treatment, or in 1-3 sessions separated by 3-6 months. It gives a significant rejuvenating effect, and balances the features naturally. With a comprehensive approach and advanced techniques, this innovative treatment can help you reclaim your youthful glow and embrace a more revitalized version of yourself.
