In recent years, non-surgical cosmetic treatments have seen a huge spike in popularity. It’s no wonder why; with advancements in technology and innovative developments, the impact non-surgical treatments such as fillers and peels can have now is truly impressive. Best of all, you no longer need to go under the knife to achieve the look you’ve always wanted.
Here at the Aesthetic Skin Clinic, we’re ahead of the curve when it comes to these style of treatments, so we’ve decided to explore why these treatments are more popular than ever and what the top three non-invasive cosmetic treatments are right now.
Non-Surgical Facelifts
Non-surgical facelifts are quickly gaining popularity as a means of improving facial appearance. The topic of non-surgical facelifts seems to be everywhere, with shows such as Good Morning America even running an entire dedicated section on the hottest advancements in non-surgical treatments.
There are numerous options for a non-surgical facelift, from the 8-point lift to Thermage, Sculptra, among others. Although each of these procedures has a slightly different outcome, they all share minimal downtime and can erase 5 to 10 years from your appearance. To deliver best results, we combine Ultracel Hifu with volumizing fillers like Sculptra and Voluma.
Rejuvenating the skin and restoring the three-dimensional contour of the face has never been easier with this non-invasive and non-surgical procedure.
Non-Surgical Fat Removal
As we gain and lose weight, fat cells expand and shrink – this is a natural ageing process for everyone. Previously, fat removal treatments were exclusively surgical procedures, such as liposuction, but with developments in technology and growth in research, we can now treat unwanted fat without any incisions and even recovery time.
Since 2013 there has been a 43% rise in non-surgical fat removal procedures. According to the ASAPS report, 100,000 non-surgical fat reduction procedures were carried out in 2014 alone. This number rose by a huge 19% in 2017.
Aqualyx fat removal has a very small amount of downtime with only possible swelling and mild bruising. This treatment only takes between 15-30 minutes, meaning you could even fit this in your lunch break!
Non-Surgical Skin Peels
Skin peels are very popular with people who want to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, sun damage and even acne scarring. Celebs such as Bella Thorne have publicly chronicled their chemical peels on social media, and 1 million chemical peel procedures were carried out in America last year alone, which was a 1% rise from 2016.
By removing old skin, new layers of skin can then grow in its place, which results in the area being much brighter, clearer, and youthful-looking.
The Obagi Blue Radiance Skin Peel contains a unique blend of acids that gently, yet effectively, peel the skin. After just one session, this skin peel can produce tighter, smoother, and brighter-looking skin.
The Obagi blue skin peel takes only between 30-45 minutes and will improve skin quality for months, even years. For a procedure that can be carried out in your lunch hour, that’s pretty impressive! It can help correct wrinkles, any unwanted pigmentation, scars, large pores, and much more.
Why Are Non-Surgical Treatments Appealing?
Non-surgical treatments bring plenty of benefits – not to mention the great final results. While the annual survey data from the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons shows that cosmetic surgery procedures in Britain have declined by around 40%, it also reveals that non-surgical treatments are the option many people are seeking.
Journalists have been pointing to several factors as a root cause for this demand, from a change in popular fashion to celebrity influences as well as financial considerations.
In addition to being quicker procedures, non-surgical treatments tend to be less costly and come with fewer risks, requiring significantly less time for post-op recovery.
