Have you heard of the liquid facelift?

Posted on
Liquid facelift bucks county

You may know someone who had a facelift, but have you heard about something called the liquid facelift? It’s a term used for a certain non-surgical treatment that can provide the benefits of a facelift without incisions, anesthesia or any downtime. Let’s cover the basics so you know why the liquid facelift has become a popular treatment for so many people. 

What is a Liquid Facelift?

A liquid facelift is a non-surgical procedure that uses dermal fillers for facial rejuvenation. These dermal fillers reduce the appearance of wrinkles and folds, leaving you looking years younger in the process. Generally Botox injections and dermal filler injections such as Juvederm or Restyalne are used for liquid facelifts.

What can you expect with a Liquid Facelift?

During a liquid facelift, dermal fillers and Botox are used to add volume, lift, contour the midface.

These dermal fillers are then used to sculpt and refine the jawline, chin, add volume to lips and reduce wrinkles from the forehead with Botox. 

The liquid facelift is highly customizable and four syringes or more of dermal fillers may be needed depending on the areas of your face you want to focus on.

It’s  best to get a consultation at a reputable medspa with a certified medical injector who will create a liquid face lift plan for you. 

The results of a liquid facelift can last anywhere between a year or two, depending on the dermal fillers used.

To see if you are a candidate for a liquid facelift, it’s best to start with a consultation.

If you are looking into doing a liquid facelift or searching for a provider that does lip injections, jawline contouring, or would like to reduce wrinkles from your forehead with Botox and you live in or around the Bucks County, PA area, request your free consultation at Healthy Solutions Medspa online, or give us a call at (267) 332-5567.

3 Medspa Treatments to Clear up Bacne/Back Acne Scars

Posted on
Healthy Solutions Medspa

“Bacne” and back acne scarring are among the many new sought after treatments in the skin care field.

Whether you experience active acne or acne scarring on the back, or both, there are solutions out there that have worked wonders with clearing up the skin and improve hyperpigmentation.

The most effective treatments today include the VI Peel, Hydrafacial and Microneedling.

VI Peel For Bacne

The VI Peel is a gentle but powerful medical grade chemical peel that can be be customized with boosters to treat many different skin care concerns from hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone, texture, wrinkles, acne, and bacne.

This aesthetic procedure can be performed on the face, neck, chest and back.

It’s extremely effective in treating “bacne” and back acne scars.

The VI peel works by creating micro-damage to the skin’s top layer, causing peeling which in turns stimulates new tissue growth, shedding off old unhealthy skin and bringing out new healthy skin.

Because of the thicker skin on the back, peeling starts around day 7 and can last 4-7 days.

Due to the longer peeling duration, back peels should be done every 6-8 weeks and a series of 2-6 treatments are recommended for optimal results.

Healthy Solutions Medspa

Microneedling For Back Acne

Microneedling is a great treatment option for back acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, stretch marks, minimizing pore size and fine lines and wrinkles.

It involves pricking the skin with tiny sterilized needles to stimulate an immune response from the body to produce new collagen and elastin to heal the injured areas leaving the skin rejuvenated and corrected of inconsistencies.

Healing time takes about 5-7 days with minimal down time and a series of 3 is recommended for optimal results.

Minor side effects should be expected after this treatment, such as redness, bruising or inflammation, but usually clear up in a few days

Hydrafacial For The Back

The Clarifying Hydrafacial is another treatment option for “Bacne” and can be done in conjunction with either the VI Peel or Microneedling.

This treatment uses a combination of glycolic acid, salicylic acid and Blue LED light therapy to target bacteria, decongest the skin and control oil production.

First, the back is deeply cleansed, softening the sebum to aid in extractions and remove any impurities.

With a vortex tip, the skin is exfoliated with a gentle glycolic and salicylic acid peel.

Afterwards comes extractions, followed by hydrating the skin with hyaluronic acid, detoxifying antioxidants, and firming peptides for deep moisturization and hydration.

The HydraFacial treatment for the back leaves skin looking healthy and hydrated.

Monthly treatments are recommended for optimal results.

Acne and acne scarring on the face and the body can be extremely frustrating and leave you feeling self-conscious.

With the help of a physician and medical aesthetician, they can customize a treatment plan to get your back acne under control and help you start feeling your best.

To find out if you are a viable candidate for any of these treatments, it’s best to start with a consultation.

Dermaplaning Your Face: What You Should Know

Posted on
dermaplaning near me

Dermaplaning the face has taken flight in popularity, and with reason.

This quick and painless procedure exfoliates the face, instantly leaving the skin smooth and soft for a glowy finish and flawless makeup application.

If your face is looking dull, it could be from the top layer of the skin’s exposure to UV rays, environmental toxins and other irritants that clog the pores and create dead skin cell buildup.

Dermaplaning removes this top layer of skin to reveal smooth and glowing skin.

What is Dermaplaning?

The dermaplaning procedure is an exfoliation method using a scalpel to essentially remove dead skin cells, peach fuzz and unwanted hair from the face.

This technique is safely performed with a special scalpel that is specifically designed for dermaplaning.

After the skin is prepped, the technician will gently scrape the skin to remove dead skin cells and any impurities, without any abrasion or downtime.

Dermaplaning is a great way to prepare for an important social event, photo shoot, or television appearance because makeup goes on smoother without having that extra vellus hair.

It can be done on it’s own, or added to other facial treatments such as before a chemical peel or a Hydrafacial.

Healthy Solutions Medspa

If you aren’t convinced yet, here are the answers to some questions you may have about the dermaplaning procedure:

Freqently Asked Dermaplaning Questions:

Which area can I get dermaplaning done?

Dermaplaning is performed on the face, under the chin and sides of the neck. It is not recommended for the eyelids, chest or anywhere other than the face.

How often should I get the treatment?

You can expect for the results of dermaplaning to last anywhere between two weeks to a month. Results will depend on each client’s individual hair growth cycle.

Will dermaplaning cause more hair to grow?

As some patients may worry that facial hair will grow back thicker, darker or faster, this is not true.
The soft, fine hairs that grow on the face (AKA vellus hairs) do not grow back the same as the type of hair on our head, underarms, legs and pubic areas (AKA Terminal hairs).
Any type of hair removal process will not alter the type or growth process of the vellus hairs on our face. 

Will dermaplaning remove my tan?

Dermaplaning does not remove a natural tan, but will remove a spray tan.
With any method of exfoliation, direct sun or tanning should be avoided after treatment. The procedure will not be performed on burned skin.

Which is better dermaplaning or microdermabrasion?

While microdermabrasion created similar results to dermaplaning, the procedure uses a rougher surface to smooth out the skin. Microdermabrasion creates abrasion, pressure and suction during the treatment and may leave your skin with slight redness and/or irritation. Unlike dermaplaning, the process does not remove the vellus hairs from the face, and you may need several appointments to get your desired results. With dermaplaning, the results are immediate and do not leave you with redness or irritation. Both procedures leave your face with a smooth canvas, but dermaplaning could be less harsh for your skin when compared to microdermabrasion.

Which is better dermaplaning or waxing?

Waxing is a popular, tried and true method of hair removal, but can be painful and unpredictable at times. It can sometimes cause over-exfoliation, irritation, and redness if not done correctly. Unlike dermaplaning, waxing will remove the hair first, and then exfoliate second. Also, waxing is best for dark/coarse hair removal for a longer period of time, while dermaplaning can be done on all skin types. Dermaplaning offers an instant glow, smoother skin, allows for better makeup application and better product penetration.

How much does dermaplaning cost?

Dermaplaning costs on average $100 on its own for one treatment, or can be added to another facial treatment for around $50.

If you are looking for a painless exfoliation method to get super smooth, radiant skin, dermaplaning is a great, safe and quick way to achieve your desired results.

Glutathione: Everything You Need to Know about the Mother of All Antioxidants

Posted on
Healthy Solutions Medspa

For both men and women, maintaining a youthful appearance and glow is one of the most commonly discussed topics in doctors’ offices around the world.

While there is an endless number of wrinkle creams and serums promising younger-looking skin, skincare professionals know that the secret to a healthy skin starts from the inside.

Enter glutathione, the “Mother of All Antioxidants” and the new IV treatment superstar being used to help those with aging skin look and feel better.

Best IV Vitamin Therapy Doylestown

Antioxidants are often touted as the secret to effective anti-aging, but very few people understand what they actually are or why they are essential. Basically, the job of antioxidants is to protect your cells from deteriorating. Every day, when we encounter things like pollution and the damaging rays of the sun, our cells can be damaged and weaken. Eating a diet packed with antioxidant-rich foods (like fresh fruits and vegetables, dark chocolate, and even wine!) can help fend off environmental damage and keep your cells working properly.

Glutathione is a relatively simple antioxidant, but its benefits are so diverse and powerful that many doctors are exploring IV vitamin therapy involving glutathione to counteract toxins in the body. Some patients that are looking for natural and alternative anti-aging treatments choose IV Vitamin therapy with glutathione. Other patients like to receive IV Vitamin therapy in addition to their Botox treatments in Bucks County to enhance their youthful appearance.

IV Vitamin Therapy for Skin Health:

With a structure that makes it conducive to the neutralization of many toxins, glutathione is being called the “Mother of All Antioxidants” thanks to its versatility in protecting cells and helping collagen cells (those responsible for skin elasticity) stay fresh and bouncy.

While glutathione can be introduced into the body through diet, the most effective way to see the benefits of this anti-aging star is through IV therapy.

For those who are searching for the secret to looking and feeling younger or a weight loss doctor in Doylestown, a call to Healthy Solutions by Dr. Luciano should be the first step.
