Non-Invasive Plastic Surgery

Cosmetic surgery keeps changing year after year depending on social norms. Each year comes with more advanced procedures. Back in the day, cosmetic surgery was expected to change the way a person looked. The more different the person looked post-procedure, the more successful it was. Society today has accepted people in their true nature. The year 2020 is a marker for non-invasive cosmetic procedures. These days, people want cosmetic procedures that keep them looking as natural as possible. Most of these procedures aim to achieve change using a seamless treatment.
 

They have zero downtime for post-procedure rehabilitation. These procedures work with fat removal, body parts resizing, fat deposits, body contouring, fat freezing, and laser therapy. In the year 2020, the following procedures are gaining demand fast.

 

Micro-Needling

Micro-needling is a minimally invasive procedure that is used on the face to treat wrinkles, acne, large pores, and skin sagging. The physician uses a skin pen micro-needling tool with an atopic anesthetic. It generates collagen essential for the skin. Ideally, the skin is firmer, smoother, tighter, and brighter after the procedure.

 

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

IPL is a laser treatment used to treat wrinkles, spots, sunburn, varicose veins, freckles, and age spots. IPL is almost the same as laser treatment. Nevertheless, IPL emits light in many wavelengths mimicking a photo flash. In this case, a laser focuses on one wavelength. IPL uses laser heat to treat unwanted pigmentation without causing damages to the skin.

 

Platelet Rich Plasma Scalp Injections (PRP)

PRP is a procedure used to boost hair growth by healing problematic follicles. PRP works by extracting specific proteins from blood, then injecting them back in problematic areas. PRP can be used to treat androgenic alopecia, osteoarthritis, and tendon injuries.

 

Jawline Fillers

Jawline fillers give the patient a fuller jawline. It eliminates sagging cheeks and a double chin giving the patient a well-structured face. Specialists use a variety of different fillers, which may contain synthetic calcium filler, to restructure your jaw. Apart from a little swelling and a sore jaw, there is little to no downtime after this procedure.

 

Body Contouring

Non-surgical volume reduction body contouring procedures are popular today. These include temperature-based fat reduction, skin tightening, skin toning, laser therapy, and other non-invasive procedures. In the past, patients got tummy tucks and liposuction, which involves major surgery. Today, results are achieved with injectables, lasers, and minimal procedures.

 

Botox and Facial Injectables

Young people are seeking Botox treatments today more than ever. Mostly, it is a preventative procedure to prevent future problems. Facial micro-needling with Botox is commonly used to fix saggy skin, puffy eyes, asymmetry, and wrinkles.

A cocktail of platelet-rich plasma is injected under the eyes to remove puffy eyes. It erases pigment that causes dark eye bags. It also improves fine lines around the eye, making patients look much younger.
