At Renew Medical Spa, we believe in celebrating you at every stage of life. Your body is an incredible machine, and its needs change as you journey through the decades, here’s what the experts are saying about aging gracefully.

Understanding Aging Skin

As we age, collagen production slows down, leading to wrinkles, fine lines, and loss of skin elasticity. Sun damage also becomes more evident, with uneven skin tone and age spots. Here’s a glimpse into how we can tailor our treatments to empower you throughout your vibrant life:

20s & 30s: Building a Strong Foundation

• Focus: Prevention and vitality.
• Treatments: This is the prime time to build healthy habits. We offer deep cleansing and hydration facials to support your skin’s natural glow. Early support for preventative beauty treatments at this age is the best way to save money down the road. Treating yourself to Botox and a little filler is a great approach; coupled with chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and facials, it removes dead skin layers and sun damage and helps deter wrinkles. Creating good sunscreen habits and using quality skin care products is imperative at this stage in life.

40s & 50s: Embracing Change

• Focus: Maintenance and rejuvenation.
• Treatments: As hormonal fluctuations occur, we can recommend facials with targeted ingredients for concerns like fine lines and uneven skin tone. Body contouring treatments such as Coolsculpting can help you maintain your desired shape, while laser hair removal offers a long-term solution for unwanted hair. Adding laser treatments to your skincare at this age is critical and can provide more profound results.

60s & Beyond: Wellness for Life

• Focus: Longevity and well-being.
• Treatments: Our focus shifts towards promoting overall wellness. Laser treatments can tighten and lift the skin. Using a combination of laser resurfacing Botox^®
  and fillers strategically at this age can keep you from doing more advanced
  therapies that may require going under the knife.

Choosing the Right Laser

Here’s where advanced laser technology shines:
Not all lasers are created equal! Regarding laser resurfacing, there are two main categories: ablative and non-ablative.
Ablative lasers, like Fractional CO2, create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering collagen production and tightening for dramatic results on wrinkles and sun damage. Ablative lasers can come in various forms, such as intense pulsed light, a treatment similar to laser resurfacing in that it uses light to treat skin problems, particularly pigmentation problems, and rejuvenate the complexion.

However, IPL uses a broad spectrum of light wavelengths delivered in brief pulses instead of a highly focused, single wavelength. IPL is marketed under many names, including BBL (broad band light), photofacial, and photorejuvenation. Additional treatments such as Skintight use the power of Broad Band Light to deliver a non-invasive skin-tightening therapy as it’s completely non-ablative and doesn’t require downtime but provides effective collagen boosting and tightening, as the name would suggest.
However, this approach comes with some downtime for healing. Non-ablative lasers, such as the MOXI laser, offer a gentler approach. At the same time, Halo is a middle ground as it’s a Hybrid Fractional Laser that delivers a non-ablative and an ablative wavelength. It works by stimulating collagen production without significant peeling, making them ideal for addressing fine lines, uneven texture, and mild sun damage.

Ultimately, the best laser treatment depends on your specific concerns, skin type, comfort levels, and desired downtime. Our experts will assess your skin during a consultation and recommend the most effective and safe option for achieving your goals.

Beyond Laser: A Comprehensive Approach

At Renew, we believe laser treatments are most effective when combined with other techniques:

• • Injectable Fillers: Fillers can plump up wrinkles and restore lost volume, complementing the tightening effects of laser treatments.
  • Botox^® or Dysport^®: These injectables can relax overactive muscles that contribute to wrinkles, particularly around the eyes and forehead.
  • Medical-Grade Skincare: A personalized skincare regimen with ingredients like retinol and antioxidants can further enhance your results and promote
    overall skin health.
