The tips mentioned in this section will help an individual extend results of a liquid face lift, advanced dermal filler or awi(anti-wrinkle injection) treatment.  These recommendations will also help the patient’s own skin help itself in maintaining results, so that an individual will – over time – require fewer repeat touch up treatments. Most individuals will maintain results for gradually longer and longer times between touch ups.  These tips will, in many cases, also help patients need less product in future touch ups.  One of the greatest advantages of following each of these tips is to lower lifetime maintenance costs of preserving natural facial contours and healthy, youthful skin.

Tip #1   Use High Grade Skin Care Products

Effective skin care is one of the best ways to continue to reap the benefits of your liquid face lift treatment.  The problem is that there are so many exaggerated claims about skin care products that it can be difficult to sort through the vortex of options to determine what really works.  While some over the counter skin products live up to their hype, you might want to consider using medical grade skin care products.  Many of the products are made to higher specifications than similar products found over the counter.  Many physicians who carry liquid face lift products also carry medical grade skin care products, eg Environ, +/- roller.

It is important to use products that will help you prevent future damage to your skin.  A high grade sun screen worn every day can be important in your defense against future skin damage and to assist your liquid face lift products as they stimulate your own skin to produce collagen.  A facial cleanser, which balances pH while it exfoliates and extracts impurities is important.  Regular application of a high grade moisturizer can help prolong your results.  Antioxidant products may be advisable, as well.  Ask your doctor about an effective skin care program to help you help your skin maintain the restored contouring and correction of a liquid face lift procedure.

Tip #2   Follow Dr Young’s Advice for Immediate Post Treatment Care

Dr Young  will likely tell you not to lie down for a few hours after your awi treatment.  You may be asked to avoid exaggerated muscle movement or excessive physical activity for a few hours following your liquid face lift procedure.  Following this and other advice that your physician will give you during your treatment session will help the products achieve maximum efficacy. Relax, and be healthy.

Tip #3   Maintain Your Results with Routine Touch Up Treatments

This probably should be the #1 or #2 tip because it can have an enormous impact on how the liquid face lift products stimulate your own skin to regenerate collagen, and how the products will relax the etching of lines over time to restore healthier skin.  It seems that the most common mistake individuals make after they have a liquid face lift, advanced dermal filler or awi treatment is that they don’t return timely for a follow up or touch up treatment.  Often patients make this decision in order to save money.  However, if you are looking for enduring results, money spent in early follow up treatments often equates to tremendous savings over a lifetime.

With respect to most of the advanced dermal fillers, it takes a few touch up sessions before the body really begins to work on its own to regenerate collagen.  The effects of regular touch ups are often cumulative, and help extend results for longer and longer intervals between touch up treatments.  It is possible that an individual who has maintained regular dermal filler touch up treatments for two or three years may begin to measure treatment intervals in terms of years, not months.  For most conditions treated with awi, an individual will need regular treatments every few months.  However, with proper skin care and regular awi treatments, the etching of facial wrinkles can (in many instances) be nearly eliminated. Therefore, after a year or two of regular treatments,  it is not uncommon for individuals to feel they need follow-up awi treatments only every six months or more. Some even outgrow the need.

Tip #4   Use awi in Conjunction with Dermal Filler Treatments Where Applicable

Excessive or exaggerated muscle movement can diminish the endurance of most of the advanced dermal fillers.  Since awi relaxes excessive muscle movement, it effectively extends the life of most dermal fillers and most liquid face lift procedures.  Awi use has dual importance.  First, the dermal filler lasts longer.  Secondly, it gives the dermal filler more time to stimulate the skin’s own collagen response mechanism for a second layer of enduring results.  In some instances, awi use may not be suggested, depending upon the exact nature of the procedure.  Ask your Dr Young if supplementing your procedure with awi would be beneficial.

Tip #5  Select Dr Young, he is extremely experienced in the Use of Liquid Face Lift Products

An experienced physician will generally have a better understanding of the advanced injection techniques and product combinations that will extend your results.  Extensive experience will also contribute to a physician’s understanding of how unique skin types, physical conditions, levels of skin damage and other factors play into the mix of optimal treatment recommendations.

How does VOLUM+ work to achieve its results?

According to facial aesthetic expert Dr. Herve Respaldo, ‘an attractive face is characterised by smooth, round contours, high cheekbones, hollow jowls and a thin, well-defined jawline. These features together comprise the “triangle of beauty” or “heart of face”, with its base at the top and summit below.

As we age, facial fat loss, gravity, and loss of the skin’s natural elasticity conspire to reverse this triangle’s composition, leading to a narrower, less youthful forehead and temple area, and a wider, heavier jawline.

Fortunately, VOLUM+ can restore the face’s balance and heart-shaped proportions, revolumising facial hollows and  lost volume and recontouring the cheeks, cheekbones, and nose for a fuller, softer, more youthful appearance. The VOLUM+ helps recapture the facial volume that age and weight loss can diminish. With VOLUM+, an innovative injectable hyaluronic volumiser, you can enjoy a smoother more youthful appearance of your cheeks, cheekbones, and chin.

Enjoy increased confidence with VOLUM+

Perhaps the best indicator of the advantages and benefits of treatment with VOLUM+ is the level to which those who have used it enjoy their results. A clinical study demonstrated that at 6 to 18 months after treatment, all study participants rated their results as positive!

Similarly, the vast majority of study participants indicated that they would recommend treatment with VOLUM+ to others based on their own experience of feeling more attractive, with better self-esteem and greater confidence.

Sample before and after images( post photos are straight after procedure, results will vary)-

The final images 8, 9, 10, are the PRE treatment images, and these show the “sunken” in mid cheeks, and eye bags, which are corrected in the earlier images.

1.Treatment time will take approximately 40 minutes, and the results will be evident instantly, they will improve over the next month,when you will be reviewed again,( first review at one week).

Relax, restore and volumize( VOLUM+)

The best ways to slow facial aging and edit out signs of aging are the three basic tenits-

Relax- using AWI’s, we will endeavour to limit some dynamic wrinkles, and in some cases stop certain areas of movement( we use a graded custom designed scaling to achieve just the right look),

Restore- replace what was missing and adjust various areas, eg. brow heights, and lip volume,

as we age, gravity takes its toll, and the facial tissues descend downward, leading to jowls, deep lines around our nose and mouth, and on our chins. We also lose volume, as the fat pads in our face and cheeks not only fall, they diminish in size. We see a second bag form under the eyes, a diagonal line or depression form from the inner corner of the eye towards the ear, and we see a flattening of the cheeks.

Volumize- finally we can define cheek bones, jawline, and now fill in the midface to really plump up the face.

This is via a wonderful new product, VOLUM+, we will be able to defy gravity and lift your cheeks for up to 18months, the procedure is almost painfree, and will take approximately 40mins.

We have added some before and after pics, to illustrate its effect, these were taken at a training session, they are immediately post procedure, so the result will be even more improved.

So who is Volum+ for …. if you are around 40 and above, or have sunken in cheeks/flattened cheeks.

Think VOLUM+ , think youth.

How can we get this?

On top of being as healthy, I advise all my patients to use mineral makeup.

This is is essentially extremely fine crushed minerals, which you use to “cover” the skin.

The best type of Mineral Makeup is easily answered as one that is all natural and pure. Common Minerals are Mica, Titanium Dioxide, and Zinc Oxide. Dry minerals do not require a preservative, however many brands of Mineral Makeup will have additives for shelf life or fillers to expand the product, and some even add aroma or perfumes to them. Mineral Makeup is made to be bought and worn, so if you are looking for a Mineral Makeup, pure and natural can’t be wrong.

There should be no talc, no preservatives,dyes, fragrances, and ideally have antioxidants.

Advantages of mineral makeup-

-covers without blocking pores

-non-comedogenic

-sun protection

-light and easy to use.

Our brands are-

Jane Iredale available at Clovelly,

and ID Bare Minerals at Castle Hill.
