The New 20 Minutes Non Surgical Facelift
Entrust your skin to a skin specialist
The V shaped face, is widely coveted by many across the continents. It gives a sculpted, youthful look with a slim lower face and lifted jawline, imparting an attractive feminine appearance. The best part is, with the advances in aesthetics and medical technology, this V shaped face can be easily accomplished – no surgery is required.
Toxins are used to slim the jawline and lift the contours of the face, and fillers are used to reposition the angle of the face and sharpen the chin. Results are almost instant, though if you have hypertrophic masseters and a square jaw it may take a couple more weeks to manifest.
This exciting FDA approved technology utilizes another form of energy to tighten skin: electro-optical synergy (ELOS) combined with Infrared. It is a virtually painless procedure used to treat your face, neck and abdomen and gives you rapid refirming and skin tightening. It is also useful for reducing the appearance of early eye bags. Ideally, you can count on the best results with 6 treatments at intervals of 2 to 3 weeks.
Please note that this procedure should only be performed by an accredited medical professional.
The Thermage’s ThermaCool System is an FDA approved non-invasive treatment proven to tighten loose or saggy skin, producing a “lift” without an incision. Please take note that this procedure should only be performed by an accredited medical professional. The Thermage process utilizes radio-frequency energy to activate deeper skin tissue and jumpstart collagen production. This procedure is referred to as a mini-facelift because it is similar to a facelift without surgery. It can be performed on the upper face (for droopy brows and crows feet), the lower face (for deep nasolabial grooves, jawline, and jowls), as well as for tightening lax skin on the neck. Generally only one treatment is needed, but you can see continual improvement over 6 months. The results can usually last about 3 years.*
We use Comfort Pulse Technology (CPT) with the Total Tip for greater comfort and better results.

Collagen, the protein which gives the skin its firmness and elasticity, can be found within the dermis (or middle layer) of the skin. It is manufactured by the fibroblasts within the skin. Collagen gets depleted with age and with free radical damage eg from sun exposure or smoking. Therefore, by drinking collagen supplements, the protein ingested will not fuse with your body’s own collagen. Similarly, topical application of collagen and hyaluronic acid can moisturize the skin, but they do not increase the skin’s natural collagen content.
The evidence-based treatments that I use in my office have made me aware of the stark contrast between what people are being sold, and what actually works to alleviate certain skin problems. My goal is to provide safe and effective treatments, and I have been greatly encouraged by my patients’ clinical outcomes.
