Unfortunately, at some point in your life your skin will lose its bounce and the folds will begin to set. This is an inevitable process that comes with ageing, but that hasn’t stopped beauty wellness experts from trying to delay the process nonetheless. You have several anti-ageing options if you want to maintain a youthful look, and advancements in dermal fillers, laser skin resurfacing, and acne treatments continue to make aesthetic medicine safer, less painful, and more effective than ever before.
This is according to the spring issue of New Beauty magazine, but Dr Simon Ourian, Medical Director of Epione Beverly Hills, is sceptical about their effectiveness. ‘I like to think that I work on the cutting edge of aesthetic medicine,’ he said. ‘But in truth I will always wait for sufficient data to be collected before I introduce new devices or products to my patients. The innovations discussed in the article are interesting but I’m not ready to add them to my practice just yet.’
One of the new devices discussed in the article is a new kind of dermal filler, which uses pressure driven by CO2. Until now, dermal fillers have only been administered with needle injections, but this can make you more susceptible to swelling and bruising. The new dermal filler, on the other hand, allows your doctor to easily control the flow of the treatment and more accurately place fillers.
But the anti-ageing wellbeing boosters don’t stop there. One device now on the market allows your doctor to determine your skin type and how your skin will respond to laser treatment. This information will enable your doctor to calibrate the laser to the proper parameters, which will ensure safe and successful treatments. The device minimised your risk for complications and improves the efficacy of the treatments by factoring in your skin tone, melanin levels, and sun exposure.
If lasers and fillers aren’t your cup of tea, then how about a new anti-acne pill? Manufacturers say the pill eliminates your need to eat fatty foods and is easily absorbed by your body. However, the pill is only to be used in cases of extreme acne and is currently only available via prescription. Dr Ourian commented, ‘I’m glad to see that the article made note of that the anti-acne pill may have significant side effects. It’s important for patients to know these risks before they start any drug regimen.’
