Flaccidity
Facial aging is the result of the loss of fat and collagen, which compromises the facial subdermal structure, causing a loss of volume.
The aging process produces structural changes in multiple tissues including skin, fat, muscle and bone tissue. These changes are the cause of the appearance of deep wrinkles, furrows and depressions.
The most common sagging of the face is in the jowls, bags under the eyes, drooping eyelids, deeper nasolabial folds and a “double chin” .
At Planas Salud Medicina Estética we address facial flaccidity through different techniques and procedures.
Calcium Hydroxyapatite
Calcium Hydroxyapatite is the latest generation filler implant that is in high demand to combat facial sagging and fill certain types of wrinkles, addressing common hormonal deficiencies in mature skin seeking to redefine facial contours.
It is a dermal filler used to treat facial wrinkles to achieve a more rejuvenated appearance. The treatment is totally safe, fast and there are hardly any side effects in its application.
Helps skin regain its elasticity, firmness and natural glow. It allows a dermal redensification, i.e. it increases the quality of the skin. Its main advantages are:
- Safety and durability
- Instant results
- Reposition volumes
- Recovers collagen
- Lifting effect
Tightening threads
The treatment with tightening threads is a simple and safe rejuvenation technique used to prevent and treat flaccidity. It does not require incisions, leaves no scars or visible marks on the skin. The results start to be seen three weeks after the treatment and the effects last between a year and a year and a half.
The threads will be reabsorbed in a few months, but their effect continues since they make our body create new natural collagen threads, producing the desired lifting effect.
Its main advantages are: natural and non-aggressive process, it can be applied on facial and body, it can be performed as many times as necessary, it does not leave marks or scars, it stimulates collagen production and allows the patient to return to normal life immediately.
We achieve a lifting effect – Rejuvenation – Stimulates collagen production – No marks or scars.
Collagen biostimulators
Polycaprolactone microspheres is a collagen biostimulator. It is injected into the dermis to lift, sculpt and restore lost volume associated with skin aging. Its main component is polycaprolactone microspheres (PCL), a resorbable medical polymer. PCL is suspended in a carrier gel made of carboxymethylcellulose.
The results are gradual and long lasting, achieving a natural and youthful appearance.
Read on to find out more about this treatment at Planas Salud Medicina Estética.
When injected into the skin, it reverses the aging process in a two-step process:
- Methylcellulose gel offers immediate lifting and shaping results. However, the gel lasts approximately 12 weeks.
- At the same time the polycaprolactone microspheres begin to stimulate collagen production in the skin, thus improving skin quality.
In contrast to procedures with hyaluronic acid, which lifts due to its gel-like rheological properties, collagen biostimulators act by stimulating the body to produce collagen.
- The result lasts from 2 to 4 years. Its main advantages are:
- Safety and durability
- Instant results
- Reposition volumes
- Recovers collagen
- Subtle and natural results
Plasma rich in autologous growth factors
The plasma obtained from the blood contains an optimal concentration of proteins and growth factors that improve healing and enhance the results of standard clinical treatments.
Plasma rich in growth factors treatment is indicated for mature skin showing signs of aging and for younger skin with acne marks or looking for extra radiance and juiciness.
It is performed in three simple steps: blood collection, centrifugation to prepare the plasma rich in growth factors and subsequent application by microinjection in the area to be treated. It can be used on face, neck, décolleté, hands and hair redensification.
Its main advantages are: it is the MOST NATURAL BIO-STIMULATION treatment that exists as well as being a great cellular stimulant. There is no risk of allergies or intolerances (as it is an autologous treatment).
Hyaluronic Acid Treatment
As we age, our skin loses fat, collagen and hyaluronic acid, substances that provide facial volume and support. Visible signs of aging are appearing.
Hyaluronic acid fillers are composed of hyaluronic acid similar to that of our own body and are specifically designed to act within the different layers of the skin, replacing or restoring facial volume and improving the quality and integrity of the skin.
Hyaluronic acid fillers help revitalize and enhance facial features for a wide variety of treatment needs:
- Smoothes wrinkles and creases around the mouth and nose (marionette lines) and nasolabial folds
- Plumps lips or adds moisture to lips
- Smoothes and reduces facial lines appearing on the forehead and around the eyes (dark circles).
- Defines and restores volume to the cheekbones
- Shape and contour the face to eliminate visible signs of aging.
Its main advantages are:
- Technique practically painless and easy to apply with immediate results that in addition to stimulating collagen production.
- No allergy test is required since hyaluronic acid is a component of our own body.
- It is also used to treat dark circles under the eyes with lower density.
