Are you looking for unique ways to pamper yourself and improve the quality of your skin? Facial aesthetics are important for the way you present yourself to the world. Fortunately, at Columbus Facial Plastics, we offer multiple relaxing treatments to rejuvenate your skin and bring you a more youthful appearance.
Whether you want a facial that combats the signs of aging or that boosts collagen production in your face, we can help. Below are a few of the most popular skin rejuvenation treatments to consider.
What Is Skin Rejuvenation?
Before we dive into the treatments that can improve the quality of your skin, we need to take a closer look at what exactly skin rejuvenation is.
These treatments will range from light to moderate, with each step up affecting skin at a deeper level. The mildest facials will remove the outer layer of dead skin cells to give you improved texture and clarity.
Facial aesthetics can treat most common skin concerns, including:
- Static or dynamic wrinkles
- Color changes or pigmentation (freckles, sun spots, and melasma)
- Scars
- Visible blood vessels
- Skin tone issues
All of the facials we recommend are meant to be used in conjunction with high-quality skincare products at home. These products extend the effects of the treatment and continue to nourish the skin in the best way possible.
Following are a few different treatments that you should consider if a more youthful appearance is your goal.
Prescriptive Facials
For the ultimate in relaxation and skin rejuvenation, allow us to pamper you with a prescriptive facial. These treatments are completely customized to the unique needs of your skin so that you get only what your skin needs to shine. It will take into account the aging process as well as any type of visible sun damage.
A skincare specialist will work with our doctor to define the treatment plan that addresses the treatment area as well as the number of recommended sessions. Most often, a prescriptive skincare treatment is applied to the face and scheduled for a one-hour session.
One of the benefits of this type of facial is that there is no downtime following your appointment. You can resume normal activities and even reapply your makeup immediately afterward, though it is recommended that you also apply sunscreen to protect the skin.
Prescriptive facials are designed to give you healthier skin overall, but as an additional benefit, they also tend to result in a more youthful appearance. For the best results, you should combine them with medical-grade skincare products to strengthen the skin further and protect it from the rigors of daily life.
Microneedling
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is another important aspect of facial aesthetics that you may want to consider to rejuvenate the skin. As the name implies, treatment will help the body produce more collagen, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
It can take some time for the results of microneedling to show up, but this can be a long-lasting option to improve the quality of the skin.
In this treatment, a handheld device containing tiny microneedles will be passed over the area that we want to target. The needles cause micro-wounds in the skin, which trigger the natural healing response of the body and the production of more collagen.
Microneedling can be used to treat many different parts of the body that are showing signs of aging, including the following:
- Face
- Neck or décolletage
- Hands and arms
- Legs
- Abdomen
- Back
For the best results with this skin rejuvenation technique, we recommend that you follow up with us for three to six sessions. Each session will take approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour, so make sure to set aside time in your busy schedule to keep up with these facial aesthetics.
Light Chemical Peel
If you want a long-lasting treatment, a series of light chemical peels can improve your facial aesthetics. While the face is the most common treatment area for chemical peels, they can also be applied to the neck and chest. For these types of facials, there is no downtime, and you can resume normal activities right after your session.
What are the benefits of a light chemical peel? Soon after the treatment, most of our patients notice that their skin practically glows. Chemical peels improve clarity while tightening the skin, giving you a more youthful appearance. Additionally, they give your skin a brighter color and a smoother texture.
A light chemical peel can help reverse some of the signs of aging on the skin that result from exposure to the sun, the wind, and general environmental toxins. This skin rejuvenation treatment can remove the outer layer of the skin to give you fresh, new skin that looks healthier.
Light chemical peels can offer a one-time option to pamper yourself. However, if you want to see lasting results, we recommend that you schedule a series of three separate peels. Patients who come in for multiple treatments can see results that last for months.
