Lax Skin

Loose Skin Body:

There are two types of ageing of the skin which leads to loose or lax skin: "true" ageing due to chronological age and "photo" ageing, due to the toxic effects of cumulative sun exposure or other environmental toxins, such as smoking, pollution, and lack of circulating antioxidants (diet).

The two types of ageing manifest themselves in slightly different ways. In true ageing, the skin produces less collagen and elastin and the fibril layers loosen and become less organised. This causes the skin to sag and become thinner resulting in the classic signs of ageing. This process is accelerated by sun exposure or photo ageing making the skin older before its time. Another cause of loose body skin is having one or more children or sudden weight loss.

Home Therapies:

At Body Renewal, we offer topical therapies such as the Dermaheal Growth Factor range for lax skin rejuvenation. Once the signs of ageing appear on the facial skin, it is time to initiate the most powerful corrective treatments and topical therapies available such as growth factors to improve collagen content. Lamelle set out to produce the most powerful corrective product on the market. The Ultra moisturising renewal cream is that product.

In office treatments:

Body Renewal is excited to offer the next step in multi-modality therapy in treating skin laxity. Any treatment modality on its own can make a big difference, but in our eyes it's not sufficient. Skin laxity has different forms and grades and thus success at combating it needs a combination of treatments that include physical collagen contraction, and long term collagen stimulation. At Body Renewal Carboxytherapy in combination with skin tightening procedures such as Titan®, TriPollar™ and Velashape™ is producing some really significant results.

Virtually any patient in their thirties or above can be a candidate for a little tightening and firming and the younger the patient the better the result. Eight out of ten patients get noticeable improvement in skin laxity after first treatment an ten out of ten will be putting collagen " in the bank" for the future. The new concept today is to start with tightening rejuvenation treatments early so as to and avoid or postpone surgical solutions for as long as possible.

If one can keep one's skin firm and taught with collagen, then the sagging that takes place over time can be contained as tighter facial skin supports the body. The new concept today is to start with rejuvenation treatments early so as to and avoid the inevitable ageing.

At Body Renewal, a highly professional team led by a medical doctor assesses every patient and an appropriate combination treatment together with long term maintenance program is recommended. Every client is provided with a fully customised solution dependant on expectations, budget, time and medical conditions.

Body Renewal Tip:

Unfortunately a stunning "Hollywood" face and body has not been handed out by nature - it has to be bought and this usually comes at an expensive price. .At Body Renewal we have recognized this problem and have come up with a solution to make it more affordable for the average person. Body skin laxity packages include Carboxytherapy and TriPollar treatments which tighten loose body skin and stimulate long term collagen production.

Transdermal mesotherapy treatments of Dermaheal growth factor solutions are also included to ensure superior collagen stimulation. To improve penetration of topical cosmeceuticals such as Dermaheal, the Dermaroller ™ Beauty Mouse is recommended for effective transdermal delivery of active ingredients for home use.
