4 How to Get a Personalized Consultation


 

Before your teenage years, your skin is at its peak — no visible pores, dehydration, or sun and stress damage. However, as with our other organs, our skin, being the largest, undergoes the inevitable aging process.

While some factors are beyond our control, like genetics, we can manage others: diet, hydration, smoking, and alcohol consumption.

Yet, even with the best intentions, our skin sometimes needs additional assistance.

The secret is an approach called positive aging.

Positive aging isn’t about pursuing youth but embracing empowerment, confidence, and health in your own skin at every age.

At Lougheed Laser, situated in Burnaby, British Columbia, we’re committed to honouring your timeless beauty, empowering you through every stage of life, and offering control over aging. Consider our personalized 360 treatment plan as your valuable companion.

In this post, you’ll understand the signs of aging, related skin concerns, and effective management strategies, ensuring you feel your best at any age!

 

 

 

Your 20s – 30s: Pre-Rejuvenation:

Opportunities

The goal here is to preserve the beauty of your expressions.

Being proactive is vital; this stage is the perfect opportunity to seize control.

Get started with preventive measures to be ready for future reparative goals. Develop an easy-to-follow skincare routine with low-maintenance treatments to effectively tackle early fine lines and other changes at this stage.

 

Changes

Although your skin starts experiencing less noticeable changes, like early signs of fine lines, address them with preventive measures. These changes include:

  • Cell Turnover

Change | The shedding of old skin cells and the generation of new ones begin to slow down, making the process less efficient.

Effect | Skin might look duller.

 

  • Collagen and Elastin

Change | Gradual decline in collagen and elastin production.

Effect | Skin is less firm, and the first signs of fine and expression lines become noticeable.

 

  • Hydration Levels

Change | Natural skin hydration levels can begin to decrease.

Effect | Skin becomes drier and less plump.

 

Recommended Treatments

We recommend you try:

  • Effective Skincare Routine: After your personalized consultation with our experts, find the right skincare routine for happy and healthy skin. Sunscreen is crucial. Check out this post for some of our skincare recommendations.
  • Wrinkle Relaxers: Prevent wrinkles while maintaining expressions with neuromodulators like Botox and Nuceiva.
  • Gentle Skin Resurfacing: With natural production declining in this age group, this treatment plan boosts skin collagen levels.

 

 

 

Your 40s – 50s: Modern Maintenance:

Opportunities

The goal here is prevention and correction.

Enhance your skin health by creating an improved treatment plan with more frequent sessions.

 

Changes

Continue with preventive measures and initiate corrective actions. In your 40s and 50s, your skin undergoes changes, losing some elasticity and firmness, resulting in a less hydrated appearance. Other changes include:

  • Facial Volume

Change | Gradual loss of facial fat and volume.

Effect | Reduced overall facial fullness, leading to hollow areas around eyes and cheeks.

 

  • Supportive Structures

Change | Weakening of facial and other skin-supportive structures.

Effect | Sagging skin.

 

  • Collagen and Elastin

Change | Further decline in collagen and elastin production.

Effect | More pronounced fine lines and wrinkles, like crow’s feet and marionette lines.

 

Recommended Treatments

We recommend you try and combine the following:

 

 

 

Your 60s: Advanced Approach:

Opportunities

The goal here is to age gracefully.

Celebrate the richness of your journey and adapt your treatment plan to support your skin’s resilience. The focus is on restoring volume loss, improving texture and tightening skin.

 

Changes

In your 60s and beyond, the skin is less firm, among these other changes:

  • Facial Fat

Change | Natural loss of subcutaneous fat, especially in the cheeks and under the eyes.

Effect | Skin appears more hollowed, with deeper wrinkles and fine lines becoming more pronounced around the eyes, mouth, and neck.

 

  • Age Spots and Hyperpigmentation

Change | Darkened skin surface areas from prolonged sun exposure.

Effect | Age spots on the skin and uneven skin tone.

 

  • Collagen and Elastin

Change | More reduction in collagen and elastin production.

Effect | Skin appears loose; an example is the development of jowls.

 

Recommended Treatments

We recommend combining the following:
