6 Non-Surgical Treatments to Prep for Summer
Here comes the sun, which means trips to the beach, BBQs, or hours spent by the pool. As the warm weather brightens our spirits, it’s time to discover ways to look and feel our best. If you need help getting swimsuit-ready but want to avoid surgery, we have a whole lineup of non-surgical treatments to help you address a range of common concerns like excess fat, loose skin, and facial aging.
Aria DermSpa offers an array of cosmetic procedures that don’t involve incisions, sutures, or extended downtime. Here is why they are so important:
So, Why Choose a Non-Surgical Treatment?
The rise of plastic surgery has multiplied at a booming rate. However, for every plastic surgery, there is usually a less invasive option. Let’s look at the advantages of non-invasive treatments over plastic surgery.
Less Pain
Since non-surgical treatments are less invasive than your typical cosmetic surgery, you will experience minimal pain during and after the procedures. In addition, most treatments involve the application of topical numbing cream over the treatment site to lessen any discomfort further.
Less Risk
Medical studies have shown side effects of non-surgical treatments include minor swellings and bruises, which resolve in a couple of days. However, these are minimal when you consider the impact of cosmetic surgery, including inflammation, extensive bruising, and scarring.
Time-Saving
Most non-surgical treatments take about thirty minutes to complete, and the prep time for these treatments is typically shorter than surgery. This is in sharp contrast to cosmetic surgery, which may take multiple hours to complete and require weeks of preparation. In addition, non-surgical recovery is considerably faster than surgical recovery, with many procedures allowing you to continue your daily routine once you leave the clinic.
Cost-Effective
Non-surgical treatments are considerably less expensive than cosmetic surgery. After comparing surgical and non-surgical treatment costs, patients find the latter care is only a fraction of the former. Being affordable is a significant advantage of non-surgical treatments.
What Are the Different Types of Non-Surgical Treatments?
At Aria Dermatology and Aesthetic Center, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Lisa Donfrio offers four types of non-surgical procedures. They include:
Injectables
From BOTOX® to Sculptra® to an assortment of dermal fillers, injectable treatments can help resolve the initial signs of aging, like expression lines, wrinkles, and sunken cheeks.
Skin Rejuvenation
Chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and PRP facials are just a few of the skin rejuvenation treatments available in Madison, CT. These skin enhancement treatments will deliver youthful, radiant skin to help you look beautiful in the sun or indoors.
Facial Procedures
Non-surgical eyelift, Silhouette InstaLift, and ThermiSmooth are facial treatments that offer surgical benefits similar to aesthetic surgery.
Body Contouring and Tightening
CoolSculpting, ThermiTight, and Kybella®, among other treatments, eliminate fat bulges or tighten loose skin from pregnancy or weight fluctuation for a swimsuit-ready body.
What Are 6 Cosmetic Treatments I Should Consider for This Summer?
Dr. Donofrio suggests these procedures to ensure you look your best for your summer vacation or just hanging out at home in the sun. She will discuss the dynamics of each procedure during your consultation.
CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting is the world’s most popular non-invasive fat-reducing treatment. Diet and exercise may not be enough to achieve your beach-ready body. This innovative body sculpting procedure has scientifically proven benefits for men and women who work to reduce stubborn fat that is resistant to a healthy diet and regular exercise.
Our patients love the CoolSculpting experience because the treatment takes as little as 35 minutes for long-lasting results. Schedule a CoolSculpting session and return to work afterward. We can treat multiple areas and remove up to twenty-four percent of targeted fat in those troubled areas. The most popular treatment sites include the abdomen, flanks, upper arm, and thighs.
ThermiTight
The ThermiTight treatment leverages radiofrequency energy to address problem areas of loose skin. Rather than a topical treatment, ThermiTight goes deep within the tissue. This facet makes the treatment an excellent option for multiple locations, including:
- Face
- Neck
- Arms
- Breasts
- Abdomen
- Knees
- Thighs
If you want to tighten the skin in certain areas without complex surgery, ThermiTight can deliver excellent results. Optimal candidates for ThermiTight include healthy men and women who want visible results but wish to avoid the downtime associated with invasive body contouring surgery.
Non-Surgical Eyelift
The areas around the eyes are susceptible to wrinkling because this skin is more delicate than any other area on your face. A proper skin care regimen will help slow the natural aging and improve skin health.
A Non-Surgical Eye Lift rejuvenates eye appearance without the invasive techniques of a traditional eyelift. Instead, Dr. Lisa Donofrio employs dermal fillers like Belotero Balance® or Restylane® to restore lost volume in the eye area to give you that youthful appearance once you take those sunglasses off.
PRP Facial
PRP therapy (platelet-rich plasma) is one of the most sought-after treatments in cosmetic dermatology today. This innovative treatment uses reparative proteins in your blood to deliver revitalizing effects to damaged or wrinkled skin.
PRP facial rejuvenation kickstarts your skin’s healing process in troubled areas, leading to accelerated skin cell turnover and a boost in collagen regeneration. The results are a more supple, smoother skin presence with softened fine lines, fewer enlarged pores, and a more even texture.
PRP facial rejuvenation offers outstanding results for those seeking facials with minimal downtime. So let our team at Aria DermSpa enhance your complexion with PRP facial rejuvenation in Madison, CT.
BOTOX®
BOTOX® has been an innovative solution for revitalizing and smoothing dynamic wrinkles, including frown lines and crow’s feet, for decades. Women and men have counted on BOTOX® to maintain their youthful appearance with only a few brief sessions annually.
BOTOX® is a quick and highly tolerable procedure allowing wrinkles to fade with targeted microneedle injections that don’t recovery or downtime. Results are noticeable within the first week and typically last three to four months.
Injectable Fillers
Dermal fillers, including Juvéderm®, Restylane®, and Voluma, soften and reduce fine facial lines and wrinkles while increasing volume in desired facial areas. Popular among women and men of all ages, injectable fillers can add shape and fullness to lips, create increased volume in your cheeks, and restore a youthful complexion to your face.
Most injectable filler procedures are relatively quick, depending on the number of areas treated. In addition, most contain an anesthetic, so the process is highly tolerable. There are also options for a topical anesthetic to numb the area before injections. Like BOTOX®, there is no recovery or downtime, with minimal swelling and possible bruising in the injection area. Results are immediate.
