Rejuvenating Treatments Fully on Trend

Since the pandemic, the desire for eyelid rejuvenation, anti-ageing, and minimally invasive procedures has increased significantly. Rejuvenating treatments provide natural freshness and a youthful appearance – without surgical intervention.

Sculptra – The Liquid Facelift

The Sculptra treatment is one of the most important beauty trends. Sculptra is not a filler like hyaluronic acid, but rather a biostimulator. It contains injectable poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), which triggers a cellular response within the skin.

Sculptra reactivates the skin's natural collagen production. This leads to a significant increase in collagen, causing wrinkles to diminish and skin quality to be renewed – without volumising the face.

⏱️Treatment Process

  • • 2 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart
  • • Results develop over several weeks
  • • Patience required for optimal outcome
  • • Collagen production is activated gradually

🎯Results

  • • Natural-looking, younger appearance
  • • No change to facial proportions
  • • Rejuvenating effect lasts up to 2 years
  • • Clinically proven efficacy

Skinbooster – Here Comes the Glow!

Our skin is exposed to intense stressors every day: central heating, cold, UV radiation, stress, and insufficient sleep. The skin progressively loses its firmness and elasticity.

With a skinbooster treatment, the skin receives an optimal hydration boost. Moisture reserves are efficiently replenished, leading to lasting hydration deep into the skin layers.

💎

Improved Firmness

Lasting hydration provides firmer, more elastic skin.

Radiant Complexion

The skin's appearance becomes more youthful and radiant – for up to 12 months.

🔧

Problematic Skin

Positive effect on acne, pigmentation disorders, and scars.

Hyaluronic Acid and Botox – Tried-and-Tested Classics

Hyaluronic Acid

Naturally occurring in the body with water-binding and smoothing properties.

  • ✓ Wrinkle smoothing and volume restoration
  • ✓ Filling of nasolabial folds
  • ✓ Smoother skin, improved firmness
  • ✓ Long-lasting hydration boost
  • ✓ Suitable for body areas too (buttocks, hands, décolletage)

Botulinum Toxin

The treatment of choice for dynamic wrinkles caused by strong muscle activity.

  • ✓ Reduces muscle activity
  • ✓ Relaxes facial expressions
  • ✓ Smooths frown lines and forehead lines
  • ✓ Minimises crow's feet
  • ✓ Can be combined with hyaluronic acid for deep wrinkles

Vegan Botox – The Trend Towards Greater Naturalness

Naturalness and sustainability are becoming increasingly important. Vegan Botox is a neuromodulator that represents an innovation in the Botox market.

Thanks to innovative production technology, it is a ready-to-use product, free from preservatives and animal proteins – completely vegan. It is applied in the same way as conventional Botox to smooth dynamic wrinkles.

HIFU Ultrasound – Non-Surgical Skin Tightening

During the HIFU treatment (high-intensity focused ultrasound), the skin's natural collagen production is stimulated to smooth the skin and improve its appearance over the long term.

The high-intensity focused ultrasound delivers its energy into the deep layers of the skin. This increases the production of collagen and elastin. The skin gradually becomes firmer, creating a natural facelift effect.

Advantages of HIFU Treatment:

  • • No downtime – immediately back to daily activities
  • • No special aftercare required
  • • Can also be used for fat reduction (abdomen, thighs, buttocks)
  • • Excellent results for cellulite treatment
  • • Can be combined with hyaluronic acid, Botox, and Sculptra

Important Note

All of these non-surgical procedures treat wrinkles and signs of ageing only superficially. The natural ageing process cannot be stopped by these methods, but merely slowed. For lasting results, a surgical procedure such as a facelift, liposuction, or a lifting operation may be appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Sculptra and hyaluronic acid?

Sculptra is a biostimulator that stimulates the body's own collagen production, providing long-term skin tightening. Hyaluronic acid is a filler that immediately restores volume and provides hydration. Sculptra works more subtly and over a longer period (up to 2 years), while hyaluronic acid delivers faster results.

How long does a skinbooster treatment last?

The results of a skinbooster treatment typically last up to 12 months. The skin remains more youthful and radiant thanks to the intensive hydration. For long-term results, we recommend regular top-up treatments.

Is vegan Botox as effective as conventional Botox?

Yes, vegan Botox (botulinum toxin A) is just as effective as conventional Botox. The difference lies in its production: it is free from animal proteins and preservatives and is therefore particularly well tolerated. The effect on smoothing dynamic wrinkles is identical.

Can I combine HIFU with other treatments?

Yes, HIFU combines very well with other treatments. A combination with hyaluronic acid, Botox, Sculptra, or skinbooster is particularly beneficial – although staggered over time. This allows you to benefit from the advantages of several treatment methods and achieve optimal results.

Is there any downtime after a HIFU treatment?

No, after a HIFU treatment you can immediately return to your normal daily routine. There is no downtime and no special aftercare is required. Mild redness may occur briefly but resolves quickly.

Which treatment is right for me?

The choice of optimal treatment depends on your individual skin condition, your wishes, and the desired outcome. During a personal consultation, we will analyse your skin and discuss which treatment or combination is best suited to you.

When should I consider a surgical procedure?

If non-surgical treatments no longer achieve the desired results, or if you are looking for a permanent solution, a surgical procedure such as a facelift may be appropriate. This decision is made together during a detailed consultation, during which we discuss all options.
