Anti Aging Treatments

ANTI AGEING

Age is just a number and not the number of wrinkles or frown lines on your face. The idea of ‘anti-ageing’ is not to freeze your face, to wash-out every crease and make your skin look artificially stretched – having you end up looking expressionless or others looking at you wondering what went wrong? The goal is to help you look your natural-best, at every age. Every time we smile, laugh, frown or form an expression, the facial muscles stretch and pull the skin with it. Gradually, as we age, this results in the formation of wrinkles. Even the bony structure of your face – responsible for giving it shape – also changes as we grow older. These changes result in changing the very shape and structure of your face over time. And it’s not just your face; you’ll notice the skin on your hands and neck change as well over time. Even your hair will look different. Your hair cycle alters as you grow older. At Dr R kumar we help you revive and rejuvenate your skin so you radiate a healthy youthful glow. Your skin is treated with the most innovative techniques and the best cosmetic technologies to erase fine lines and wrinkles, tighten sagging skin and restore a luminous glow; empowering you to age gracefully and on your own terms.

What is a peel and how does it works? A peel is an acid or combination of acids which have a great deal of benefits for your skin, body, face and scalp – depending on which combination your doctor chooses. We at Ra ensure the best possible results and also keep in mind that we choose acids and the application process where downtime is minimum.

What is the procedure like ?

We cleanse your skin.

Then a gel/fluid is applied with an applicator and allowed to rest on your skin for some time.

Later, your skin is again cleansed or neutralised.

Some peels are applied on your skin and you go home with them, letting them stay on for longer hours.

What are thecpost treatment care and instruction that i need to know ?

Aerobic exercise or vigorous physical activity or water sports should be avoided for the first 48 hours.

Direct sunlight is to be completely avoided immediately following the treatment specially between 11 am to 4 pm, including any other sources of strong UV light exposure and tanning beds.

Apply sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or greater. Sunscreen (with at least an SPF of 15) should become a part of your daily skin care regimen as your skin will become more sensitive to the sun as a result of this treatment.

Cleanse your face with water or a mild cleanser.

Gently moisturize your face with a moisturizer, a minimum of 2-3 times a day.

Do NOT peel, rub or scratch your skin at any time, whatsoever. This will otherwise cause damage and compromise your results as well as lead to possible scarring.

Redness could be simple sensitivity to the procedure you have had. Please moisturize your skin.

Stop using all skin care creams including anti-ageing, skin lightening, acne treatment creams for the next two days and let us know of the same.
