Anti-Aging Q&A

What are anti-aging treatments?

Anti-aging treatments minimize the signs of aging, like fine lines and static wrinkles. As you age, many of the processes that keep your skin tight and moisturized begin to slow. 

Collagen and elastin are proteins that build your skin’s structure and allow it to bounce back. After age 30, collagen and elastin production slows. Wrinkles start to form and the skin thins and sags. It also becomes dry as you lose these essential proteins.

Collagen loss isn’t the only process that slows. Cell turnover — when new skin cells replace old ones — also takes longer. Slower cell turnover can lead to pigmentation abnormalities that age your skin.

Anti-aging treatments can help restore the proteins that maintain your skin’s youthfulness and promote cell turnover to minimize unwanted pigmentation.

Which skin concerns can anti-aging treatments address?

 Anti-aging treatments can address a wide range of skin concerns, such as: 

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Brown spots
• Hyperpigmentation
• Sun damage
• Dullness
• Enlarged pores
• Redness
• Rough skin texture
• Dryness

 Anti-aging treatments can also tighten and firm sagging skin around the mid-face and jawline areas.

What are the types of anti-aging treatments?

The most popular anti-aging treatments The Collagen Bar offers include:

CO2Lift Carboxy Gel Treatment

This treatment improves the skin's elasticity without the invasive procedure with an innovative gel-mask treatment that is gentle enough to apply even on your eyelids and under eye. It Improves radiance immediately after application by conditioning skin with intense hydration and boosting moisture retention.

NeoCollagenizer Microcurrent

The NEO Collagenizer is "a breakthrough technology that works within the skin; it plumps and hydrates through the skin’s own water-based channels by reversing the skin's polarity. Molecules of collagen penetrate fast – the skin’s texture stays looking fresh and revitalized.

HIRASKIN Biomimetic Therapy

This treatment works instantly to stimulate natural collagen production, particularly indicated for the deep restoration of the skin that’s perfectly pH balanced which facilitates superior penetration of the collagen peptides into the epidermis. There is immediate repair and perfect hydration of the skin.

Neuromodulators

Neuromodulators, like Botox®, temporarily paralyze muscle movement to relax wrinkles and prevent the skin from creasing.

Dermal fillers

Dermal fillers, like Juvéderm®, are hyaluronic acid (HA) substances that your skin care specialist injects into your skin to restore lost volume.

Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy

IPL therapy uses multiple wavelengths of light to penetrate the dermis — the skin’s middle layer — without harming the surface layer. Unlike laser therapy, which uses a focused beam of light, IPL scatters light to address a wide range of skin concerns, like redness and brown spots.

Dermoelectroporation®

Dermoelectroporation, or DEP, is a groundbreaking treatment that breaks through the skin’s barrier to deliver rejuvenating products. DEP allows your specialist to introduce custom-tailored products into deeper layers of your skin without trauma.

Forma® RF 

Forma RF is a non-invasive skin remodeling device that delivers radiofrequency (RF) energy deep into the dermal layers to reduce the appearance of nasolabial folds and sagging skin around the neck and jowls.

Morpheus8® RF microneedling

Morpheus8 RF microneedling combines collagen induction therapy with radiofrequency energy to stimulate deep collagen remodeling. The device can also target unwanted fat.
