Non-Surgical Facelift

Surgical Facelift:

A facelift is a surgical method that removes excess facial skin to make the face appear younger. It targets a three dimensional sculpting of sagging skin and muscles of the face. Also aids removal of jowls leaving a more pleasing and youthful appearance to the face. This surgery may be combined with neck, eyelid surgery, forehead lift, chemical peels and Laser surgery. The modern face lift incorporates three dimensional enhancement of volume lost in various parts of the face as a result of aging.

We believe in giving a “natural look” facelift rather than a “windblown” appearance. In carefully selected patients, a short scar facelift can be applied. This procedure is performed through an incision concealed within the ear skin creases and cartilaginous convolutions. Facial rejuvenation procedure consists of a large number of plastic surgery techniques and maneuvers carefully selected and adapted to a specific patient’s requirements. These techniques can be employed to refresh faces of patients as early as their late 30’s and up to severe aging changes seen in patients in their 80’s.

Mole/Warts/Tags http://appleskinclinic.co.in/services/mole-warts-tags/ http://appleskinclinic.co.in/services/mole-warts-tags/#respond Mon, 10 May 2021 09:58:20 +0000 http://appleskinclinic.co.in/?post_type=services&p=940 Moles:

Moles occur when melanocyte cells in the skin grow in a cluster instead of being spread throughout the skin and are usually brown or black. Moles can appear anywhere on the skin, alone or in groups.As the years pass, moles usually change slowly, becoming raised and/or changing color. Often, hairs develop on the mole. Some moles may not change at all, while others may slowly disappear over time.Moles may darken after exposure to the sun, during the teen years, and during pregnancy.

Types of Moles:

  • Congenital nevi are moles that are present at birth.
  • Dysplastic nevi are moles that are typically larger than average and irregular in shape. They tend to have uneven color with dark brown centers and lighter, uneven edges.

Warts:

Warts are raised growths on the skin caused by an infection with human papilloma virus (HPV). Warts are often skin-colored and feel rough distinguishing them from moles. But they can be dark (brown or grey-black), flat, and smooth.

Skin Tags:

A skin tag is a small flap of tissue that hangs off the skin by a connecting stalk. Skin tags are not dangerous. They are usually found on the neck, chest, back, armpits, under the breasts, or in the groin area. They are not painful but can be irritating when jewelry etc. causes friction with the skin.

Treatment Options:

  • Radiofrequency
  • Lasers

Glutathione Injections http://appleskinclinic.co.in/services/glutathione-injections/ http://appleskinclinic.co.in/services/glutathione-injections/#respond Mon, 10 May 2021 09:54:05 +0000 http://appleskinclinic.co.in/?post_type=services&p=937 Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that provides a wide range of benefits.

Glutathione is a substance that is naturally produced by the liver and it can also be derived in very small amounts from eating fruit, vegetables and meats. It is a protein known as a tripetide because it is composed of three different amino acids.

As an antioxidant, Glutathione cleans the liver and eradicates free radicals, having a very beneficial effect on the appearance of the skin; shrinking pores, improving hyperpigmentation and acne scarring and generally bestowing a radiant glow.

The colour in our skin occurs from the production of melanin and greater melanin production means darker skin. Glutathione inhibits the production of melanin. On top of this, Glutathione speeds up cell turnover, replacing the damaged cells – that give a dark appearance to the skin – with new cells. The number of sessions required depends on the skin tone, and the amount of skin lightening effect you may want.

Along with glutathione injections, dermatologist’s may also combine the treatment with Vitamin C. The skin clarifying properties of Vitamin C are essential to the formation and balance of collagen and elastin. Through intravenous infusion, compounded Vitamin C and glutathione injections are used for detoxification and skin whitening. With successive treatments, Skin Whitening Injections will improve the appearance of your skin.

As a result of detoxification, you may experience energy and immune system boosting as a secondary effect of this treatment.

Anti Ageing http://appleskinclinic.co.in/services/anti-ageing/ http://appleskinclinic.co.in/services/anti-ageing/#respond Thu, 06 May 2021 07:38:27 +0000 http://appleskinclinic.co.in/?post_type=services&p=42 Being a firm believer in the holistic approach towards health care and beauty treatment, Dr. Deepti Dhillon believes in the proven fact that the minutest change in one’s regular way of living goes a long way in providing better health conditions eventuating in improved health results and glowing skin.

Micro-dermabrasion and light chemical peels, BOTOX Cosmetic, Restylane, Juvederm also offer benefits for a minimal downtime with noticeable improvement. In addition, home skin care treatments including prescription strengthen the effects of these products and broaden the spectrum further in helping maintain and restore beautiful skin.

Healthy eating habits like : taking a low intake of sugar, food with less oil content and carbs, small meals at regular intervals, exercising on a regular basis, further help in circulation of blood to all body parts including skin.

Some other life-changing mantras for better living include drinking 2-3- liters of water daily which in turn helps flushing out all the toxins from the body and getting proper 8 hours of sleep which help in maintaining the body in a good shape and condition.

Botox :

Lines and wrinkles are a natural and unstoppable part of the ageing process. While they are inevitable they can be prevented and reduced.

Anti-wrinkle injections are used to relax specific facial muscles that cause expression lines and dynamic wrinkles in the upper face (crow’s feet, forehead and glabellar frown lines).

The injection weakens the muscle, thus reducing the associated lines and wrinkles, giving the face a relaxed, rejuvenated look. Over time, and with repeated treatments, the lines gradually smooth and new lines are prevented from forming. Our doctors are trained to inject the right quantity of Botox on the face which ensures that the results are as natural looking as possible. The treatment involves no downtime and depending on the size of the area treated, results become visible in 3-7 days and it takes about 14 days to see the full effect. A maintenance plan is recommended to maintain the effect of your anti-wrinkle treatments, which includes having the therapy repeatedly every 4-6 months.

Common areas of the face to receive anti-wrinkle injections include the glabellar frown lines between the brow (the vertical lines that appear between your eyebrows when you frown), the crow’s feet (the lines that radiate from the corner of your eyes when you smile or squint), the forehead lines (the horizontal lines that form when you raise your eyebrows), the area along the outer edge of the brow to give the brows a slight ‘lift’, and in the jowls to reduce the ‘folding’ effect around the mouth. Our doctors can also use anti-wrinkle injections to treat excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) with injections in the hands, feet or underarms.

Fillers:

If you’d like to restore youthful fullness to your face, enjoy plump lips, enhance shallow contours or soften those facial creases and wrinkles, dermal fillers may be the answer. Dermal fillers have been called “liquid facelifts” because they offer many of the benefits of a surgical facelift without the downtime.

Although they can’t help with excess sagging skin, these soft tissue fillers can add more volume and provide immediate results at a lower cost than surgery. These treatments aren’t permanent, however, and they must be repeated and maintained.

They are designed to effectively reduce the appearance of unwanted wrinkles, contour and create volume, and to revitalise the skin. Dermal fillers are based on Hyaluronic acid, which is a substance that naturally exists in your body. Dermal fillers revitalise and add volume to the skin, instantly diminishing the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and giving a natural softer look. Dermal filler injections can give a natural looking result that does not affect facial expression. A Liquid Face Lift will typically last from one to two years, depending on the products used and the facial area treated.

Common areas for treatment are the nose to mouth (Nasolabial) lines, mouth to chin (Marionette) lines and between the eyebrows (Glabella) lines.Compared to other methods of changing the shape of your face (such as nose, lips or cheeks), dermal fillers offer the advantage of being non-permanent and creating a generally more youthful look.

Benefits :

  • Dermal Filler treatments offer patients a wide range of benefits, including a more youthful appearance.
  • This treatment can be used to fill minor to moderate lines and wrinkles and is especially effective around the eyes, nose, and mouth.
  • When used as a lip enhancement product, it can lend volume and definition to lips, producing a sensual, more pronounced pout.
  • The treatment can be tailored to your needs providing a natural look.
  • The treatment is non-invasive with virtually no recovery time necessary; you can resume your normal activities immediately after treatment.

The liquid facelift may be used in combination with other non-surgical procedures such as a chemical peel, medical grade facial, laser resurfacing, or photofacial for maximal facial rejuvenation.  These complementary procedures may resurface the skin, treat fine lines, improve skin texture and hyperpigmentation, and stimulate collagen formation.

You may be an excellent candidate for a liquid facelift if you desire minimally invasive, clinic-based procedures to maximally enhance your appearance. You should consider a liquid facelift if you look older or more tired than you feel and wish to improve the appearance of:

  • nasolabial folds (lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth)
  • marionette lines
  • sagging, flat cheeks
  • hollows under the eyes
  • creases and furrows in your forehead
  • wrinkles around the eyes and lips
  • Jowls

The Liquid Face Lift is a completely non-surgical, multi-step facial rejuvenation approach that involves volumizing and refining areas of the face through the use of injectable cosmetic fillers and wrinkle relaxers.  The combination of cosmetic fillers, which are composed of different materials and injected at varying depths, are chosen for specific facial applications and are often layered to provide optimal results and longer lasting improvement. The injectable treatments employed include various types of wrinkle relaxers  and wrinkle fillers that act to improve both ‘active’ and ‘passive’ wrinkles.

Wrinkle relaxers such as BOTOX or Dysport may be employed to improve the muscle contraction responsible for ‘active’ wrinkles, brow heaviness, and the appearance of tired eyes as well as other indications associated with facial aging. Facial volumizers such asJuvederm, Radiesse, Restylaneand Sculptraare employed to improve ‘passive’ wrinkles or creases that form in the facial skin due to a combination of that volume loss and repetitive actions of the facial muscles.

The specific components of a given treatment plan are tailored to the preferences and concerns of each patient based on your consultation with Dr. Deepti Dhillon.

Meso therapy:

Mesotherapy is a safe, natural alternative to invasive cosmetic procedures. The Mesolift process delivers vitamins, minerals and amino acids directly into the skin to nourish and rejuvenate, promote production of collagen and elastin, and stimulate your metabolism. As your skin ages, circulation decreases, and the resulting reduction of oxygen and nutrients hinders your body’s ability to flush out toxins. This is what drives premature aging and causes the skin to develop an ashen appearance.

After treatment, patients commonly describe their skin as looking rested, radiant, glowing and firmer. Mesotherapy can be used a supplement, or an alternative, to many anti-aging regimens, including botox, laser resurfacing, peels, antioxidants, topical creams and facelifts.

Mesotherapy is also a highly effective rejuvenating treatment. The procedure can be used to tone and tighten sagging skin on the neck, legs, abdomen, arms and hands. In many countries, women often start treatments in their thirties, but Mesotherapy can prove valuable during any stage of a woman’s life.

Mesotherapy treatment is a non surgical cosmetic solution aimed at diminishing problem areas in your body such as cellulite, excess weight, body contouring, and face/neck rejuvenation, just to name a few. It is administered via numerous injections containing various types of FDA approved medicines, vitamins, and minerals.

Few facts on Mesotherapy:

— It is introduced into the mesoderm, the layer of fat and tissue underneath the skin.
— The content mixture of the injection varies in accordance with each unique case and specific area to be treated.
— Mesotherapy can also assist in reducing pain, and in replenishing hair loss in both men and women.

Hands and Feet softening treatment is a combination of treatments that help in reviving the skin on the hands and feet, restoring the hydration and suppleness. The process starts with applying a gel-based concoction on hands and feet after cleansing them. This concoction aids in sloughing off the dead skin layer, instigating healthier, fresher cells to form. This is a form of deeper exfoliation that is required for the skin on hands and feet to overcome any harshness that they have faced and hence reviving them with a flawless and soft skin.

After the exfoliation process, a mask full enriched with multivitamins and antioxidants is applied to supply the skin with needed benefits of anti-aging. This entire process may take between 30-45 minutes, helping your hands and feet to feel soft again and having long-lasting anti-aging benefits. Of course, we finish it off with a coat of your favorite nail color to give you that essence of a manicure/pedicure and to provide that extra touch of pampering every client of our deserves.

Microdermabrasion: Microdermabrasion essentially sands down the outermost layer of the skin using a rotating brush or a diamond tip. A new layer of skin grows to replace the layer that has been sanded down.

Stretch Marks http://appleskinclinic.co.in/services/stretch-marks/ Sun, 05 Apr 2015 07:20:03 +0000 http://appleskinclinic.co.in/services/stretch-marks/ Stretch marks are fine lines on the body that occur from tissue under your skin tearing from rapid growth or over-stretching. The marks form in the middle layer of the skin; when there is a constant stretch, the layer tears, leaving stretch marks. The marks begin with a slightly red or purple shade and then fade, leaving the skin streaked in silvery white lines.  It is a common condition that does not cause any significant medical problems but can be of cosmetic concern for some people.

Stretch marks can be visible on body parts including the tummy, thighs, hips, breasts, upper arms, and lower back. This type of scarring happens when the skin cannot bounce back after pregnancy, weight gain, or extreme weight loss. Apart from these reasons, corticosteroid creams, lotions, and pills can also cause stretch marks by decreasing the skin’s ability to stretch.

Keloid http://appleskinclinic.co.in/services/keloid/ Fri, 03 Apr 2015 23:42:31 +0000 http://appleskinclinic.co.in/services/keloid/ When skin is injured, fibrous tissue (called scar tissue) forms over the wound to repair and protect the injury. In some cases, scar tissue grows excessively, forming smooth, hard growths called keloids.

The exact causes of keloids is not fully understood, but it is an abnormality of wound healing. A problem in Keloid scarring is that the fibroblasts that produce collagen to make a scar, over produce collagen and the keloid continues to grow. They may not appear right away and can often begin to develop months after the initial wound has been made.

Keloids can be much larger than the original wound, and develop most often on the chest, back, shoulders, and earlobes. Keloids are equally common in women and men,

Most skin injury types can contribute to keloid scarring. This includes:

  • acne scars
  • burns
  • chickenpox scars
  • ear piercing
  • scratches
  • surgical cuts
  • vaccination sites

Treatment Options:

  • Steroid Injections
  • Lasers
