How Fillers Can Boost Collagen and Skin Tightening without an Injection into the Skin

Injectable fillers are highly effective at triggering new collagen production, which results in smoother skin and more volume in areas that have started to sag and develop fine lines. Fillers like Botox, Dysport, Juvederm and Restylane are among an array of fillers that are available that deliver amazing results, but what if you could get smoother tighter skin using a filler but without the injection?

Sculptra is a filler that, when used with Dermafrac, will penetrate the skin so that even more collagen production occurs, without an injection. 

Sculptra is an FDA-approved injectable filler that helps to smooth out deep wrinkles and hollowness by creating new collagen of your own. It’s composed of poly-L-lactic acid that will stimulate the skin’s natural production of collagen. Unlike Botox, Dysport, Juvederm and Restylane, Sculptra is a collagen-stimulating filler that plumps the skin over a gradual amount of time, which results in longer lasting effects. Sculptra also has fewer risks and side effects than other popular fillers.

Sculptra adds volume to the face by lifting the soft tissue to eliminate lines and depressions. It is now being used exclusively by Advanced Skin Fitness in conjunction with dermafrac, a skin rejuvenation treatment that penetrates the skin with tiny microneedles to boost collagen production. Sure, it sounds too good to be true, but through the dermafrac process, the microneedles will create tiny openings to allow the Sculptra filler to penetrate the skin without the use of an injection. Yippee!

When the skin is temporarily punctured with small holes from the microneedling, the Sculptra solution is infused into the skin, like a serum. The micro-needles create pathways so that the Sculptra can be placed at the exact depth in the skin to produce the most collagen. The skin will absorb the solution and there will be a stimulation of collagen production, which will improve the overall elasticity of the skin.

Patients who receive the Sculptra with Dermafrac should notice major improvements in treated areas in 4-8 weeks. To see maximum results patients should have two to three treatments, which should last up to two years.

So, if you would like to avoid an injection or surgery but get the full impact of collagen productionthat will give you longer lasting effects, consider Sculptra with Dermafrac. Your skin will naturally and gradually begin to produce collagen and elastin, so you’ll see smoother, firmer, tighter skin.

Why You Should Choose Clear + Brilliant over Pixel and CO2 Fractional Laser Resurfacing for Skin Rejuvenation

Uh oh, it’s happening. The lines are forming, your cheeks are losing volume, your brow has a rougher texture and your face looks less vibrant. You know exactly what’s going on. The signs of aging are doing a slow crawl to your skin, and the effects are becoming more and more evident each day. Well, there’s no way you’re going to accept this damage. Especially, when Clear + Brilliant can address and repair these skin issues.

Clear + Brilliant is a non-invasive laser treatment that gently and effectively rejuvenates the skin. It involves using a non-ablative fractional laser beam that penetrates the skin and destroys damaged skin cells. It only affects a small percentage of the targeted skin and allows the healthy non-damaged tissue that remains to begin the rejuvenation of the skin. It improves skin issues like hyperpigmentation, fine lines, acne scars, uneven skin tone, rough texture and large pores.

So, why should you opt for Clear + Brilliant when you have other skin rejuvenation treatments to choose from like Pixel Laser and CO2 Fractional Laser Resurfacing? These procedures are highly effective at smoothing the skin and correcting skin damage. So why not pick one of them? While Pixel Laser and CO2 Fractional Laser Resurfacing are great choices for repairing skin damage, Clear + Brilliant demonstrates a better level of performance for patients who want their skin rejuvenated, but want to avoid the possible side effects and downtime that they may experience with Pixel Laser and Co2 Fractional Laser Resurfacing.

When choosing between Clear + Brilliant, Pixel Laser and CO2 Fractional Laser Resurfacing for skin rejuvenation, it’s important to identify the stark differences between all three laser treatments before making a final choice.  

• Clear + Brilliant is gentler on the skin, so the patient will not need to recover from the procedure. It’s less intense and penetrates at a lighter depth than Pixel Laser and Fractional CO2.    

• Pixel Laser is a laser treatment that penetrates deeper into the skin than Clear + Brilliant and will produce redness on the skin and peeling after the procedure. It requires more treatments than Fractional CO2 but is usually less expensive.
• Fractional CO2 is a much more aggressive laser treatment than Clear + Brilliant and Pixel laser. The laser creates perforations in the skin for the skin rejuvenation process. These perforations often result in crusting on the patient’s skin, which will require the patient to experience a downtime of one to two weeks.  

If you’re ready for a laser treatment that is gentle on the skin but will give you a smooth youthful glow, make the clear choice and schedule your Clear + Brilliant treatment today. Clear + Brilliant is easy, simple and effective and can be used for all skin types including dark skin. Your skin will feel smoother, look more radiant and appear healthy and young.

We’re open 10AM to 6PM Tuesday – Friday and 10AM – 4PM on Saturdays for your convenience. Drop by and talk with us.

DermaFrac Treatments for Clear Rejuvenated Skin How DermaFrac Uses Microdermabrasion, Micro-needling and LED Therapy for a More Improved Anti-aging Treatment

Do you feel like an attack has been waged on your skin? Sure, it sounds dramatic, but the last time you took a gander at yourself in the mirror, you saw a war zone of wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, dryness, discoloration, dark spots and enlarged pores. Look, it may be difficult to admit, but it’s time to stop the madness and win this battle against your once beautiful smooth skin with DermaFrac.

DermaFrac is one of the best non-invasive secret weapons used to fight the damage that has been caused by aging, sun exposure, and acne. The system uses microdermabrasion, LED therapy and micro-needling to infuse serums deep into the dermal-epidermal layer of the skin to restore the skin to a smooth, youthful texture.

At Advanced Skin Fitness, we use 6 different serums that are injected into the skin during the micro-needling process that targets distinct skin care concerns. Your technician will evaluate the condition of your skin to determine the best serum to use to treat your individual problem areas before the first phase of the process which is microdermabrasion.

The Process

1. Microdermabrasion removes dead skin cells by sloughing off flaky rough skin to reveal smooth, polished skin.

2. Micro-needling is the second process which involves using a precision controlled handpiece with a vacuum that gently pulls the skin towards the vacuum. This allows tiny micro-needles to penetrate the skin to the selected depth of the dermal-epidermal layer. This process helps to prevent pain to the patient and scarring afterward. The micro-needles create pathways so that the serum can be injected and infused into the skin. The skin will absorb the serum, along with a stimulation of collagen production, which will improve the overall appearance of the skin.

3. LED Therapy (light emitting diode) is the third process. It involves using red frequency light, yellow frequencies and blue frequencies to reduce inflammation, trigger collagen production and eliminate acne.

Once the Dermafrac process is completed, patients should expect amazing results that correspond with the injection of serum that was used for their specific skin issue.

Patients will see some of the following outcomes:

• rejuvenation with the stimulation of collagen production,
• hydration from hyaluronic acid,
• clarification with cleansed pores and lightening to balance skin pigment

 

Dermafrac takes less than an hour to perform and requires no downtime or recovery time. Some patients may experience slight redness, which is temporary and will subside in little time.

If you’re ready for clear, more elastic skin with increased volume and unclogged pores, stop by today so we can get you started with Dermafrac, a great defense against damaged skin.

We’re open 10AM to 6PM Tuesday – Friday and 10AM – 4PM on Saturdays for your convenience. Drop by and talk with us.

CoolAdvantage™ Petite for Smaller Areas like Arms, Legs, and Abdomens

Coolsculpt has done it again! They’ve offered a better fat reduction solution for eliminating the annoying jiggle of fat on the arms, legs, and abdomen. These can be some tough areas when battling the bulge, especially on the arms, which is the third greatest area of concern for consumers. Well, the wait is over! Coolsculpt has rolled out the new CoolAdvantage Petite, the only FDA approved non-invasive fat reduction treatment for the upper arms. It’s also highly effective at treating smaller areas on the legs and abdomen.

Coolsculpting has been significantly successful at targeting those specific stubborn areas of the body. Most often they’re pockets of fat that just won’t go away, even after pushing the limit in the local gym. Now there’s an FDA-approved non-invasive technology that freezes targeted fat cells in the body, destroys them without disturbing the tissue surrounding the treated area and then eliminates the dead cells from the body through the natural metabolic process. What a revolution! Now there’s the CoolAdvantage Petite that has been FDA approved to specifically treat the arms, legs, and abdomen.

These areas are some of the most challenging areas for fat reduction, especially the arms. Because they’re gentle in structure CoolAdvantage Petite has two interchangeable customized contours to treat the special shape of the upper arm. It reduces the fat safely and effectively by using an applicator cup to increase direct tissue contact at a lower temperature, which cuts the treatment to about 30 minutes. This is half the time of the Coolsculpting procedure on larger areas.

Noticeable results should be expected in about 3 weeks after the procedure has been performed. You’ll see more fat reduction between 1 to 3 months. For more fat reduction and contouring it’s best to have more CoolAdvantage Petite treatments.

So, get ready to get the fabulous contoured body that you want and get rid of those bat wings for good! CoolAdvantage Petite will allow you to go sleeveless and show off leaner more and a sensible meal plan. You’ll need it to maintain your fantastic new shape.

Stop by Advanced Skin Fitness today for your non-invasive fat reduction treatment with CoolAdvantage Petite.

Ultrasound Skin Tightening with Ulthera vs Radio Frequency Skin Tightening with Juvashape, Thermage, or Venus Freeze

Sagging skin can be a drastic blow to the appearance. Once someone starts to develop skin laxity, it’s pretty much a downhill droop from there. It’s just one of those facts-of-life things that happen from age, the after effects of an operation, sun damage and loss of collagen, but you don’t have to throw in the towel. There are surgical options available to correct the problem, but who wants their skin cut, pulled and throbbing from weeks of pain? Ugh! No worries. Ulthera is a non-invasive procedure that tightens the skin effectively, painlessly and quickly.

Ulthera is an FDA approved skin tightening laser treatment that lifts and tones sagging skin, especially the eyebrows, the chin, and neck. It’s a non-invasive procedure that uses ultrasound waves to penetrate the deepest layers of the skin to deliver heat energy to the saggy areas of the skin, which will eventually generate new collagen.

Now, there are other treatments on the market that offer skin tightening like Juvashape, Thermage and Venus Freeze, but there are stark differences between these procedures and Ulthera. One major difference is that these other treatments use radiofrequency to deliver heat energy. The Ulthera technology uses ultrasound to bypass the skin, therefore reaching higher temperatures to expedite collagen production and contours on the skin. Ulthera can reach temperatures as high as 65 c versus 42-43 c with the radiofrequency treatments. With Ulthera you should also see results from one treatment. Procedures like Juvashape, Thermage and Venus Freeze may take a few treatments before there are noticeable results.
By using ultrasound waves the technician can examine the tissue and makeup of the depths of the skin’s surface. The technician is able to see an image of the area, which is reflected on a screen so he/she can specifically target the damaged areas with the heat energy. This method helps to create contours on the face and increase collagen production, so the face and neck are tight, smooth and younger looking.
Because Ulthera is non-invasive, there’s little to no downtime. Patients may experience moderate side effects like redness and slight swelling, but they can return to work soon after having the procedure if they choose to.

 

Ulthera is not recommended if the patient has keloids, open wounds or dermal, mechanical, metal or electrical implants. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not have the procedure.
If you’re losing the firmness in your neck or notice that your chin is succumbing to gravity, contact us today for your Ulthera treatment.

We’re open 10AM to 6PM Tuesday – Friday and 10AM – 4PM on Saturdays for your convenience. Drop by and talk with us.

Dualsculpting: Get 2 Coolsculpting Treatments in One Visit

Advanced Skin Fitness in Dallas, TX just kicked Coolsculpting up a notch by offering dual sculpting.  Dual sculpting uses the same technology as Coolsculpting by freezing fat cells on problem areas of the body, so that those fat cells die and are ultimately eliminated from the body naturally. The results are a more contoured shape and less body fat. It’s still amazing! The only difference is that dual sculpting allows two Coolsculpting machines to be used at once to treat two separate areas of the body. So, you can have both love handles treated at the same time, saving you time and money. Never has fat removal been so painless, effective and time-efficient.

 

When you schedule a Coolsculpting treatment for two areas, you’d normally be looking at spending about 2 hours of your precious time, depending on the technician. With dual sculpting at Advanced Skin Fitness, the entire procedure can be completed in about 35 minutes with the new smaller applicators that are currently being used. Shaving that much time off of the procedure helps you get to a slimmer body a lot quicker. Just imagine having the usual procedure reduced to a quarter of the time it would normally take. That’s fantastic progress at Advanced Skin Fitness!

Coolsculpting is one of the best non-invasive fat reduction treatments on the market. The Coolsculpting device targets specific areas of the body to remove fat without damaging the surrounding tissue. So, it’s safe and won’t disturb the areas you’re pretty satisfied with. Now, dual sculpting will get the job done faster, so you can reach your goals even quicker.

Coolsculpting is a non-surgical procedure so discomfort is at a minimum. You might see a little redness that may be accompanied by slight soreness, but it should clear up in a couple of days. There may also be numbness or tingling. You should expect it to subside in a few days after the treatment. But, you’ll be able to go back to work and get on with your normal activities after the procedure.

You should have the procedure about every 4 weeks for 3-6 months to get maximum results. In the first 1-3 months, you’ll notice the fat begin to shed. Your body will be more contoured and you’ll be able to fit your clothes more easily.

If you’ve got unwanted fat that won’t budge, even though you diet and exercise, Coolsculpting is just what you need. It’s especially convenient if you don’t have a lot of time on your hands. Visit Advanced Skin Fitness to schedule your treatment today.

We’re open 10AM to 6PM Tuesday – Friday and 10AM – 4PM on Saturdays for your convenience. Drop by and talk with us.
