Collagen Lift™ - Turn back the clock on ageing
Our latest treatment, Collagen Lift ™ helps by stimulating the body’s own natural production of collagen and elastin to reverse the effects of skin ageing – and it’s seriously effective!
Why we chose Collagen Lift™
A lifting and tightening treatment is something we’ve been asked for many times, but with the market saturated with so many different anti-ageing machines and treatments, we took the time to thoroughly research each type of technology to find the right fit. There was also a bit of a waiting list for our machine, but we are pleased to announce that it has finally arrived!
Collagen lift is non-invasive & non ablative, which means there is no downtime and no risk of scarring or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation compared to other technologies.
What areas can it treat?
Face - as we age, we lose structure to the face as collagen and elastic fibres break down. Our Collagen lift treatment can be used on the peri-orbital eye area, cheeks, Jowls, neck & décolletage.
Arms - Loose skin at the tops of our arms "bingo wings", are caused by a combination of stored fat and flaccid muscle. Collagen Lift will help to give a firmer appearance to the skin in these areas
Thighs, hips & buttocks - The most common area where the body naturally stores fat. The breakdown of these hardened fat deposits is difficult with diet and exercise alone. Collagen Lift can be used to directly target this layer of subcutaneous fat.
Abdomen - Using Collagen Lift helps to speed up the breakdown of the fatty tissue enhancing the effects of diet and exercise.
How does it work
As we age, we produce less collagen, and the alignment of our elastin fibres breaks down. This is what causes wrinkles to form.
Collagen lift™ uses high frequency radiowaves to reach deep into the dermal layers of your skin. This stimulates new collagen production & tones elastin fibres.
What happens during treatment?
One of our experienced therapists use a heated ceramic wand that delivers waves of energy into the skin. This is going to feel really nice and similar to a hot stone massage.
When we heat epidermal skin to at least 40c the collagen denatures (breaks-down). This stimulates a wound healing response and your body floods the area with new collagen & hyaluronic acid.
As your skin cools, the bonds start to renature, but because we've stimulated your body's natural healing process, the bonds will become better organised and will tighten.
Will I see instant results
Instant results can be seen from the shortening of the elastin fibres as the skin cools, along with the benefits of increased hyaluronic acid to area. The combination of heat and massage movements during treatment will increase blood flow to the area, bringing more oxygen and nutrients and eliminating toxins - this gives an instant glow and improved skin tone.
You won't see the benefits of increased Collagen right away.
It takes 12 weeks for collagen to replenish and even then, it won't make your skin firmer straight away. It has to go through a collagen synthesis process to build strength (a little like a babies muscles have to grow and mature to provide more strength).
This is why we always recommend a course of treatments. Each treatment will further boost that new collagen synthesis, allowing it to remodel, mature and strengthen.
How many treatments will I need?
For Most people a course of 6 is recommended, followed regular by maintenance sessions every 4-6 weeks.
How long will results last?
Up to two years after a course with maintenance. Any collagen our body creates only last for a certain amount of time before it begins to degrade again.
Who isn't suitable for treatment?
Not everyone is suitable for treatment. You can check out our pre and post treatment guide here. or book a consultation with one of our therapists to discuss suitability.
