Collagen loss leads to signs of aging. Fortunately, you can naturally increase collagen stimulation to lift and tone the skin without surgery!
As we age, our rate of collagen decreases. In our 30s, we can expect a decline of around 1% in collagen loss each year. Once we reach our 40s, the rate at which collagen decreases in our bodies increases substantially. As we lose collagen, we begin to see the signs of aging that many attempt to prevent, including thinner skin, fine lines and wrinkles, and dryness. The good news is that plenty of collagen stimulation treatments are available that require no surgery or downtime!
When should you begin collagen stimulation treatments?
You’re never too young to consider lifestyle changes and skin treatments that support maintaining collagen and reducing the loss of collagen in the skin over time. Beginning treatments as early as the 20s and 30s can go a long way to prevent and slow collagen loss, which in turn means slowing the signs of aging.
That said, even if you’re in your 40s or older, it’s never too late to start treating collagen loss. There are plenty of minimally to noninvasive treatments that can help to improve the skin and turn back the hands of time by stimulating collagen production.
What minimally invasive treatments provide the most results regarding collagen production?
Many think you have to have surgery or injections to improve the appearance of collagen loss and sagging skin. Fortunately, several minimally invasive to noninvasive treatments can help rejuvenate the skin, including increasing the body’s natural stimulation of collagen. When collagen production improves, our skin looks more supple, fine lines and wrinkles are minimized, and sagging skin appears more lifted and toned.
Here are some of the aesthetic treatments available at Roman’s in Morgantown, WV that help to increase collagen production naturally:
- Microneedling
- Radial sound wave therapy
- Sublative treatments
- Exilis
- Emface
- Facials
Microneedling
A minimally invasive treatment that uses thin needles that create micro-channels in the skin, microneedling is an excellent treatment to improve the appearance of several skin concerns, including:
- Acne scarring
- Skin discoloration
- Stretch marks
- Fine lines and wrinkles
The micro-channels created in the skin trigger the healing process, promoting collagen production and cell turnover, which results in skin improvement.
Radial soundwave therapy
Radial soundwave therapy (RSWT) helps to stimulate collagen production by using high-pressure sound waves to trigger the body’s healing process. RSWT creates microscopic tissue injuries that lead to the healing response, increasing collagen production and new cell growth.
eTwo sublative treatment
Sublative treatments create a significant wound-healing response that produces collagen and improves skin quality. The eTwo sublative facial rejuvenation does this through sublative fractional radiofrequency that uses heat energy to increase elastin and collagen production in the upper dermis. This skin-tightening treatment works well for a broad range of skin types.
Exilis Ultra 360
The Exilis is an innovative treatment that uses both ultrasound and radiofrequency technology to deliver energy to various depths below the skin. Together, these technologies tighten and lift skin, reduce fat, and improve the appearance of wrinkles. As an FDA-approved treatment, Exilis is clinically proven to increase skin density by 19%, reduce wrinkles by up to 42%, and reduce skin laxity by 35%. It can be used on the face, thighs, abdomen, upper arms, upper chest, waist, saggy arm skin, and more!
Emface
Suppose you’re looking for a noninvasive way to increase collagen and elastin production to tone and tighten the face. In that case, the Emface might be perfect for you. The Emface uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy (HIFEM) combined with radiofrequency that penetrates the muscle. Results are often seen immediately, with maximum results seen over a two to three-month period. Treatments only take 20 minutes to complete per session to support muscle tone improvement and elastin and collagen stimulation.
Facials
Some facials help to stimulate collagen production through relaxing muscles and improving circulation. The skin care used by the Aesthetician also makes a difference.
