What causes fine lines & wrinkles?

Everybody gets fine lines and wrinkles as they get older and there’s no way to entirely avoid them. When you were younger your skin was better at stretching and holding in the moisture because it had an elastic quality due to fibers called elastin. You also produced collagen which helped to prevent wrinkles. As we grow older, our skin loses both collagen and elastin, so skin gets thinner and has trouble getting enough moisture to the epidermis.

The fatty layer that gives skin a plump appearance also begins to disappear, the epidermis starts to sag and dreaded wrinkles form. For some people, this starts between the ages of 30 to 35 while others may reach 50 or 60 before you can even see a wrinkle. This is usually because they have taken good care of their skin over the years and may have more sebum, the skin’s natural oil.

Too much sun can greatly accelerate the aging process. Sun-damaged skin is photo-aged through losses of collagen and other skin proteins and so fine lines and wrinkles appear. Over time, these can progress into deep wrinkles and furrows. Photo-aging also causes pigment changes “age spots” (sun-induced freckles), uneven skin tone, spider veins and dilated capillaries.

If you have fine lines and wrinkles that you’re not happy with, then come and see the expert therapist at totalcare who will have a few tricks up their sleeve.

M3 #aestheticsreborn Face and Body Machine

Our M3 device has a range of face and body treatments designed to treat a wide variety of conditions. For fine lines and wrinkles, radiofrequency or no-needle mesotherapy are the best options available on the market.

We use technologies like Radiofrequency, which is a pleasant heat treatment that builds up the collagen and elastin fibres in the skin. This gives the skin a plumper and glowing complexion; in a completely natural way. Results can be seen straight away but they improve for 10 days after the treatment, with the results improving after each session.

With either the anti-age or hydrate ampoules, the no-needle mesotherapy options can take years off your facial appearance and make your winkles a thing of the past.

Oxybrasion is also very popular for sensitive acne skins concentrated airbrush of high quality Oxygen. This can be combined with either a Saline Solution or our Action De Gala Fortified Vitamin Complex, which helps to nourish, moisturise and re-balance the skin.

Apilux 3G APL Device

The Apilux 3G APL device uses the most modern technology which is a hybrid between laser and IPL. It stimulates new collagen production for smoother, more even, healthier skin. It also stimulates fresh cells and improves the movement of nutrients, free radicals & dead cells. Your skin will instantly look younger and be free of blemishes and the results will get even better over the next 48 hours.  It smoothes skin texture, minimises the appearance of fine lines and improves the appearance of sun-damaged skin.

Young healthy skin replaces itself every 28 days.  As we grow older this replacement slows down but by using monthly treatments of VitaPeel Ion’s advanced microdermabrasion the full 60-minute treatment speeds up tissue replacement. It dramatically erases signs of aging and stimulates the growth of fresh cells.

Vital O2 LUX- Oxytherapeutic System

The Vital O2 treatment is an oxygen facial that works with natural products to create a fantastic result for all types of clients. Our special anti-aging serum is pushed deep into your skin using pure oxygen and this will restore your skin’s radiance, stimulate the cellular renewal process and reduces wrinkles and expression lines. 

Vita-Sensa LT – 2G

The Vita-Sensa LT is the most versatile beauty option since it provides treatments for many facial skin problems : redness, acne, wrinkles, loss of firmness and dull complexion. It differs from the other devices on
the market because it offers 3 colours on the same device as well as the possibility of combining 2 colours at a time. Each colour penetrates the skin at a specific depth and generates distinct effects. The blue colour produces a purifying effect on the sebaceous glands and acne, the green colour reduces the aspect of redness caused by broken capillaries while red diminishes the signs of aging. We can add this to any of our treatments and we also sell it as a home-care product, so that clients can continue their treatments at home. Other eye products such as the Action de Gala Dualift eye contour emulsion soothes and reduces the depth of wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes. Dualift will also help to mosturise and to decongest while reducing puffiness, softening and oxidants. Verdeoasi’s eye contour gel is very refreshing and gives the skin a great boost of moisture without looking shiny or feeling sticky.
