Crepey Skin
About Crepey Skin
As the skin ages, collagen production slows down and the skin starts to lose it's natural plumped up, voluminous appearance. As the skin starts to lose the collagen, it becomes looser and can take on a 'crepe paper' like appearance.
Treatments for Crepey Skin
Absolute Aesthetics undertakes a wide range of treatment options for many different conditions. Our clinicians will advise on the treatment[s] that are most suited to you.
Dermal Fillers
Injecting a Hyaluronic acid filler is particularly useful to improve the appearance of facial line e.g. nasolabial folds (the lines from the nose to corners of the mouth). Fillers can improve the look of ageing faces,lips,hands and neck by giving a more 'plumped up', natural and younger look. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the skin which keeps water.
Sculptra
Sculptra is a deep dermal injectable treatment that stimulates the body to produce its own collagen. The resulting plumping effect caused by the collagen gives a natural and subtle 'lift' which smoothes out facial lines and wrinkles. It also restores lost facial volume, gradually giving a fuller, younger looking face. The results have been shown to last over 4 years.
Thermage Skin Tightening
Thermage is a non-surgical procedure that is completely non-invasive with no downtime. It is a skin tightening procedure that is used for tightening and lifting the face, eyes, arms and stomach. The tip of the Thermage machine emits a radiofrequency energy which produces heat in the skin. This causes immediate tightening of the collagen both in the skin and in the underlying layers. Over time, usually 3-6 months, new collagen will form which will enhance and cause further tightening of the skin.
