NON-SURGICAL LIFT TREATMENTS

NON-SURGICAL LIFT PROCEDURES AT LUCIA CLINIC

Lucia Clinic offers a wide range of non-surgical lift treatments for different skin types and skin issues. Some of these treatments are done by using safe ultrasound energy or radiofrequency energy that tightens and smooths the targeted areas.

 Some of the non-surgical lift treatments that patients can have at Lucia Clinic include the following:

‍

ULTHERAPY TREATMENT

Ultherapy treatment is a non-invasive procedure used for tightening and lifting saggy skin on the face, neck and décolletage. It can tighten the chin and neck and provide a natural brow lift.

 During the treatment, a safe ultrasound is used at targeted areas on the face or neck - the ultrasound energy regenerates the existing collagen, triggers the production of the new one which gradually lifts the skin. The ultrasound applicator can trigger deep layers of the skin without damaging the top layer of the skin.

 Ultherapy is a special treatment because it it done with complete precision. Ultrasound enables the therapists to see where is the targeted tissue so they can focus the energy precisely where necessary. This way the patients get 100% effective results.  

 Ultherapy is an advanced treatment that provides youthful-looking skin again by reducing fine lines and wrinkles. It helps the body to heal and rejuvenate itself which in the end provides a nicer contour to the patient's face.

 The end results of Ultherapy treatment include firming, toning and lifting of the saggy skin.

THERMAGE FOR EYES TREATMENT

 Thermage for Eyes can firm the skin around the eyes, make the skin smoother, reduce fine lines and wrinkles and reduce the eyelid hooding. The procedure brings natural and long-term results. It rejuvenates the area around the eyes and makes it brighter.

 Thermage for Eyes is done with the help of safe radiofrequency energy that heats the deep layers of the skin and stimulates the production of new collagen. The new collagen continues to buildup and gradually makes the skin around the eyes plumper, smoother and rejuvenated. It improves the texture of the under eyes skin and of the eyelids.

 The treatment can reduce the appearance of dark circles under the eyes. As it triggers the production of collagen and elastin, it makes the unattractive under eyes hollows fuller. Moreover, Thermage for Eyes is especially effective in treating under eyes bags. It makes the puffy bags under the eyes less swollen and more balanced and smooth. This treatment is also called a non-surgical eye lift because it lifts and firms the eyelid skin in a non-invasive way.

 The end results of Thermage for Eyes are firmer skin, reduced hooding of the upper eyelid and more opened eyes.

THERMAGE FOR FACE TREATMENT

 Known as a non-surgical facelift, Thermage® for the face treatment is a proven, non-invasive procedure that tightens and smooths the facial skin and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment firms and tightens the existing collagen and also stimulates the production of new and healthy collagen.

 It brings long-lasting results - the facial skin is restored, more youthful-looking and toned. Another benefit of this treatment is that it makes facial contours better-looking.

 Thermage® for the face treatment rejuvenates the facial skin and returns a brighter skin complexion.

 Thermage® for the face works by heating the deep layers of the skin where there is an abundance of collagen fibers. The safe RF energy heats the existing collagen and stimulates the production of the new one. This uniform heat stimulates collagen remodeling. Gradually, the skin gets smoother, plumper and more refreshed. Wrinkles and fine lines are reduced and skin texture is better.

 Thermage® for the face treatment targets facial areas as well as the neck. It firms the skin in the forehead and around the eyes, cheeks, jowls, jawline, around the mouth and below the chin.

 Another benefit of this treatment is that it can safely be combined with other aesthetic treatments like Botox, Fillers or Sculptra. Having these additional treatments contribute to even better and more effective results.

VENUS LEGACY TREATMENT

 Venus Legacy is one of the most state-of-the-art, non-invasive procedures that tighten the skin, smooth wrinkles and fine lines, reduce the stubborn pockets of fat, lift saggy skin and eliminate cellulite dimples.

 The treatment can be used on both the face and body, it is fast and doesn’t require a long downtime. The first results can be seen after the first treatment session.

 After the treatment, the skin is firmer, smoother and lifted because of multipolar RF energy and pulsed magnetic fields. This energy is safe and doesn’t harm the surface of the skin. The reason why this treatment is so effective is that it combines VariPulse suction and patented MP technology - the heat penetrates deep into the skin and boosts blood flow. RF energy triggers the tissue to naturally heal and produce new collagen and elastin. VariPulse technology provides pulsed suction and enables the energy to go much deeper into the skin.

 The procedure is safe for all skin tones and painless - it feels like a hot stone massage.

 The treatment lifts and tones the saggy skin and provides a better and slimmer body shape. It can be used to flatten the abdomen, tone the arms and smoothen the thighs. It also leaves the skin on the face fresh and rejuvenated and improves the overall quality of the skin.

VIORA ST TREATMENT

 Viora ST is a unique treatment for the body that lifts and firms loose skin. It uses non-invasive RF energy and combines CORE technology. This technology consists of three different radio frequencies that slowly heat the skin and trigger collagen and elastin production. The treatment is safe and painless and requires minimal to no downtime.

 During the treatment, a special V-ST applicator is used to treat the targeted body area. It has integrated ContactTEC Cooling which makes the treatment very comfortable. The RF energy goes deep into the skin but it doesn’t damage the surface.

 The treatment stimulates fibroblast and results in lifting the saggy skin. The RF energy targets stubborn fat pockets and eliminates them. The treatment generally improves the patient’s metabolism, blood circulation and stimulates lymphatic drainage.

 Viora ST treatment can also reduce stretchmarks and scars and help firm the loose skin after weight loss.

 It can treat almost all body areas, smaller or larger, and make the skin firmer and smoother. It firms the arms, back, abdomen, thighs and buttocks. It is one of the most effective skin tightening and lifting procedures.

VIORA V-FORM FOR THE FACE TREATMENT

 Viora V-FORM for the face is a groundbreaking, non-invasive skin tightening treatment. It improves the facial contours and eliminates fat pockets. It improves the overall skin quality and leaves it youthful-looking. It tightens and tones saggy skin. The treatment combines RF energy and vacuum element to trigger the production of new and healthy collagen. It is safe and requires minimal to no downtime.

 RF energy goes deep into the skin but doesn’t damage its surface. It reaches the layers full of collagen and elastin and triggers their regeneration. With the vacuum element, the underlying fat cells are eliminated and the blood flow and lymphatic drainage are stimulated. After a single session, the collagen fibers are stronger and when the body flushes away the destroyed fat cells, the facial contours are much slimmer and improved.

 The treatment is perfect for patients who have loose skin or stubborn fat pockets on their faces. It can treat jowls, submental areas, cheeks, eyelids, neck and decolletage.

 It is perfectly safe for all skin tones and skin types and effectively contours all targeted facial areas.

LIFTING THREADS TREATMENT

 Thread lift treatment represents an advanced facial rejuvenation. It involves placing temporary sutures under the skin for a subtle but still visible lift. These threads pull the skin slightly back and firm the forehead, cheeks, jawline, under-eye area or neck. The threads also stimulate the body’s own healing processes and production of collagen.

 This treatment gradually improves the skin’s tightness and tone. The body’s healing processes are constantly active because they want to heal the areas where the threads have been inserted. However, the patients don’t feel this because the threads are small.

 The recovery period is very short and patients can resume their daily routine soon after the treatment. It's just important to follow the after-care protocol.

 This treatment is ideal for patients who have mild to moderate skin laxity as the threads subtly lift the skin and provide natural-looking results. The results of a thread lift treatment can last between one and three years when the patients can have a touch-up treatment when their bodies have fully absorbed the old sutures.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT NON-SURGICAL LIFT TREATMENT?

 The first step is having a consultation with Lucia Clinic’s skin doctor or Therapist. The doctor or therapist examines the patient’s skin and asks the patient about previous medical history. The patient talks about his/her skin concerns, needs and expectations. Then the doctor/therapist determines which non-surgical lift treatment would be the most suitable for that patient and creates a customized treatment plan which includes the number of necessary sessions.

 Every non-surgical lift treatment has a different duration time and can last between 30 minutes to 2 hours. All the treatments at Lucia Clinic have been FDA-approved which means that they are safe. The treatments are comfortable and require minimal to no downtime. This is a great benefit of these treatments because the patients don’t need to spend a lot of time on recovery and can resume their normal daily activities right away.

 Regarding the treatment’s results, some are noticed immediately, while others need 3 to 6 months to become fully visible. All patients are different and the effects of the treatment can vary. It all depends on the patient's skin condition and the speed of the aging process.

These treatments are an excellent choice for patients who wish to avoid surgical lifts and longer recovery periods.  

 Non-surgical lifts are great procedures for improving the appearance of the skin and turning back the time. They can take years off a patient’s face and require only a short visit to the clinic. The patient doesn’t have to take time off work or avoid social interaction. Also, these treatments are painless to very tolerable and don’t cause that many side effects- therefore they are becoming more and more popular in the world of the aesthetic industry.
