HOW LONG DOES SCULPTRA LAST? HOW MANY SCULPTRA TREATMENTS ARE NEEDED?

As our body ages, it loses a significant amount of collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are what make our skin supple, firm, and younger-looking. These two provide our skin elasticity to “snap back” into place when pinched. Aging slows down the body’s natural ability to produce both collagen and elastin.

Recent advancements in aesthetics treatments can boost collagen and elastin production and help the skin regain lost firmness. These advancements in aesthetics are delivering some fantastic results (results will vary). Sculptra is a component known to assist in collagen rejuvenation and address a variety of skin conditions. Sculptra will make you look youthful as it stimulates collagen production. Collagen production will also provide long-term anti-aging benefits.

What is Sculptra?

Sculptra is an exceptional anti-aging solution for enhancing facial features. Sculptra is different from other dermal products on the market. Dermal fillers consist of hyaluronic acid; they work upon only one particular area, such as the cheeks, chin, jawline, lips, or under the eyes. Such fillers may show instant results but only produce results for 6-18 months. Sculptra is unique from hyaluronic acid fillers. It is made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) and is used in areas such as the temples, hairline, high cheek in front of the ears, and the jawline impacting the structure of the face and rejuvenating the skin. Sculptra aids in smoothing wrinkles, fine lines and addresses volume loss in the face.

How does Sculptra work?

During the consultation, the injector will run a comprehensive assessment of the skin that needs to be treated. The injector will review details regarding the patient’s medical history, medications, or any allergies. Medical history is crucial to avoid any risks and complications during the procedure. Patients will need to stop any blood thinners for a few days to reduce the risk of bleeding. The procedure begins with mapping injection sites and proper cleansing of the area. Topical anesthesia will be given to reduce any discomfort. The injector will begin the procedure by delivering multiple injections into the skin. This treatment is only minimally invasive, and you will be allowed to go back to your routine instantly post-treatment. Your injector will advise you of any special instructions.

General guidelines:

  • Ice pack the treated site intermittently after the procedure.
  • Avoid direct sunlight until the swelling is gone.
  • Do not perform any excessive physical activity for 24 hours.

How long does Sculptra last, and how many Sculptra treatments are needed?

Sculptra results can be seen as early as two months after the initial treatment and can last up to 24 months. Yearly treatments are optimal to continue in the production of collagen. Patients will see a gradual improvement. The number of treatments required varies per individual. The number of treatments is dependent on the amount of collagen or volume loss in the body before treatment. Consultations before treatment will determine how much Sculptra is needed for each patient.

Who is a Good Candidate for Treatment?

Individuals suffering from volume loss on the skin, wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin due to weight loss, aging, or other factors are perfect candidates for this treatment. Sculptra must be avoided by individuals who show any allergic reactions to any of the main ingredients.

How much downtime is thereafter a treatment?

A patient can go back to his routine right after the procedure. The majority of patients are advised a day of calmer activities to give a soothing relief for the redness or swelling in the treated area. Reactions such as swelling subside within a few days, but patients are advised to limit strenuous physical activity. Tenderness, itching, swelling, or slight bruising are common side effects in all types of fillers.

FAQS:

What is PRP Microneedling?

When applied to the skin, under topical anesthesia, sterile microneedles are used to gently create microscopic channels deep into the dermis of the skin. These tiny channels stimulate an individual’s own body to produce new collagen. The PRP factor to this treatment means that your body’s own healing properties are isolated and extracted and delivered deep into the dermal tissue through the microneedles. This stimulates overall skin tightening and rejuvenation.

The mixture of both Multi-depth microneedling and PRP is changing the skincare game for scarring, stretch marks, uneven skin tone, and texture. That makes the treatment at After Glow aesthetics & wellness a one-stop-shop treatment that can address most skin concerns and issues all in one unparalleled treatment!

What is the Procedure Like?

The process begins with a specialized medical-grade numbing cream applied to overall treatment areas and left in place for about 30 minutes. We want to ensure that the skin is numbed before we start the procedure.

How Long does the procedure take?

The process usually takes about 20-30 minutes but can be longer or shorter, depending on your needs. You feel no pain or discomfort, and the treatment is safe.

What Are the Side-Effects?

There are no symptoms after the procedure, but you may see slight redness in your face for a few days. Some patients have experienced itchiness, but it goes away after a day or so.

BUTT LIFT WITH PDO THREADS

A non-surgical Booty lift (BBL) Is one of the most popular procedures among women in recent years, but it can be extremely uncomfortable and expensive. PDO threads can be used to lift your buttocks with 2-3 minimally invasive sessions!

The PDO threads are inserted after numbing is applied to the area. At After Glow aesthetics & wellness in Tampa, FL we offer various forms of anesthesia for anyone who may be feeling a bit nervous about the procedure. The treatment usually lasts 45 minutes to 2 hours and has minimal side effects such as mild bruising and swelling. The PDO Thread Lift is achieved by the injector gently placing, tightening, and using the threads to lift the buttocks. The PDO Threads will dissolve over time, and collagen will build up to replace them!

Our patients have said that they feel comfortable and at ease when they visit us at After Glow aesthetics & wellness and love our PDO Thread treatments, as well as our cellulite treatments for a global buttocks refresh! Come in and see one of our Injectors, and they can help you create a plan to both anti-age and rejuvenate the buttocks and go over the rest of your medical aesthetic needs.

What are PDO threads?

PDO (polydiaxone) threads are a dissolvable suture material made of protein. They are used to lift loose tissue in the face and body. It is one of the most effective non-surgical ways to lift the buttock tissue.

How do they work to lift the buttocks?

The threads are preloaded on a blunt tip, a hollow cannula inserted under the skin. The threads have tiny barbs on them that grasp the tissue and reposition the skin. The thread is tightened, and the hollow blunt cannula is removed without leaving any scar! Usually, 4-6 threads per buttock are used.

How long do they last?

The threads will fully dissolve within 4-6 months, and your body will produce its own collagen where the thread was, which will secure the lift and give lasting results.

How much does it cost?

Each person will need a different amount of threads, depending on their anatomy.

What are the side effects and downtime?

Mild to moderate swelling, bruising, and tenderness is to be expected. The pain can usually be managed with Tylenol or Motrin. We recommend avoiding strenuous activity for two weeks and use ice and Arnica as needed to help decrease inflammation.

THE TAMPA, FL SIGNATURE TREATMENT

THE TAMPA, FL SIGNATURE TREATMENT

Here at After Glow aesthetics & wellness, we specialize in all things anti-aging. One of the very first anti-aging treatments most men and women need is our Signature Cheek and Under Eye Treatment. What this entails is volume restoration to the mid face and under eye region for a refreshed and youthful look.

Starting in our mid-thirties, we begin to lose close to a teaspoon of volume in our face every year. That includes bone, muscle, and fat loss, as well as thinning skin and loss of collagen. A teaspoon of volume is equal to five syringes of filler! When volume loss in our face starts to happen, we begin to notice hollowing and contour changes in places like the cheeks, under eyes, temples, and around the mouth. Volume loss also contributes to facial laxity in the lower face, jawline, and aging of the lip region.

So you might be thinking, who is a good candidate for this treatment? The answer is anyone who has noticed volume loss and hollowing in their midface/cheek region and under their eyes. Typically when our providers complete a new patient assessment, 9 out of 10 times they suggest our Signature Cheek and Under Eye treatment. This is due to the fact that basically anyone over 30 could use the volume and support that it provides to the face. When volume is restored in those areas, it provides a refreshed, natural, and lifted look. On average, it takes about 2 sessions to achieve full correction in these areas.

For the first session, we usually start out with 1 syringe of mid-face / cheek filler per side and half a syringe of under eye filler per side, totaling 3 syringes. After about 3-4 weeks, we will complete a follow up visit to evaluate if more product is needed. The second session typically totals 1-2 syringes if additional volume is needed. Once full correction is achieved, most patients come in every 9-12 months to maintain their refreshed look!

If you feel like you have tired, dark, or sunken under eyes, this treatment is for you! Schedule a complimentary anti-aging consultation with one of our amazing providers today at After Glow aesthetics & wellness!

bunny-lines-facial-wrinkles-causes-treatments-1

WHAT ARE BUNNY LINES?

Bunny lines are the diagonal lines that appear on both sides of the nose, below the bridge, when the person smiles or laughs. They are called bunny lines since they are similar to a pair of rabbit whiskers or ears. Like crow’s feet, bunny lines appear when a person does any facial expressions, and with age, they develop to form fine lines that show up even when the face is relaxed. Bunny lines also appear after some days of Xeomin treatment. You can reduce bunny lines with more conventional methods like anti-aging skin products and plenty of daily sleep. But if they are too annoying, you can opt for bunny line removal from an experienced and genuine medical spa like After Glow aesthetics & wellness in Tampa, FL.

What causes bunny lines?

 

There are two main reasons for appearance bunny lines:

Age:

Expressions are formed in the face due to the involved muscles. The skin is flexible and bounces back easily when you are young. But as you get older, skin loses its firmness and causes wrinkles, sagging, and fine lines. As there is a repetitive facial movement, you can see the appearance of fine lines over those areas. As you get older, there is more work on that part of the face, and more likely you are to develop lines.

Xeomin/Dysport:

Even Xeomin or Dysport can cause the appearance of Bunny lines. They work by relaxing the target muscles in the face. When some of the muscle movements are restricted, other surrounding muscles work more to compensate them. When such a thing happens, the resulting expression becomes unnatural and results in the formation of fine lines. Thus, if you have Xeomin, especially for a longer period, it could lead to the formation of Bunny lines. Therefore, it is essential to associate with an experienced medical practitioner who has a thorough knowledge of the procedure.

How to get rid of bunny lines:

Ideally, the best way to treat the bunny lines is with Xeomin Or Dysport. A skillful advanced practice provider will cautiously plan the treatment depending on your needs and type of lines.

Dysport vs. Xeomin vs. Botox

Dysport, Botox and Xeomin are neurotoxins that block muscle contractions. Both these injections are employed to treat contractions caused by issues of the nervous system but are widely used to treat facial wrinkles and lines. They’re all derived from botulinum toxins that are carefully used in small amounts for treatment. This is done as a non-invasive procedure and has gained popularity due to its minimal downtime and swift recovery rates. Still, they have to be done by therapists who know the in and out of the procedure.

Dysport and Xeomin are inhibitors that halt the regular muscle movements which generate expression lines. Botulinum toxin is employed to weaken the included muscles and curtail dynamic lines. Both Dysport and Xeomin are injected straight into the target muscle, touching only lines caused by muscle contractions.

It is performed similarly to the initial Dysport or Xeomin treatment which was carried out to eliminate wrinkles. But here, the injection is done on both sides of the nose, targeting the fine lines. Initial treatment will soften the lines, and the following treatments will gradually eliminate them, resulting in a firm and young appearance.

Major differences between Dysport, Xeomin and Botox are:

  • Some researchers say that Dysport results may not last as long as Xeomin does. But it is still being studied on a large scale.
  • The onset period for Dysport is much quicker, i.e., 2-5 days, whereas Botox and Xeomin takes 7-14 days.
  • Dysport can spread to a larger area which could be an advantage in some cases and a disadvantage in others.
  • The amount of Dysport needed for treatment is more when compared to getting the same result as Botox and Xeomin.

As bunny lines become more prominent, many individuals are looking for this kind of treatment. Many people worldwide are opting to have Xeomin treatment for solving bunny lines issues after their session of Xeomin around the eyes, forehead, and cheek regions. Bunny lines that are caused after Xeomin treatment for other issues can be more prominent.

Procedure:

After all the discussions on desired outcomes and designing perfect treatment types, regular treatment is started. This is similar to the normal Botox procedure and will last the same time. A specialized medical practitioner will clean the target area and apply numbing cream or ice packs to avoid irritation during the injection procedure. The medical therapist will inject on the bunny lines of the nose on both sides.

If both Xeomin or Dysport procedures are not done properly, they can give bad results. Hence, instead of focusing on which product to use, if you choose an efficient therapist, they will carefully handle the complete treatment. The target area differs from person to person; hence it is crucial to have detailed research before commencing the treatment. It would be best to remember that the injecting technique is much more important than worrying about the product.

How long do the results last from Bunny Line Treatment?

Bunny nose Xeomin treatment has an immediate recovery period, and the rest is advised for only six to eight hours. The result would last for around three to four months after the first treatment. After some treatments, the bunny lines will ease, and even the results will stay for long. Generally, Xeomin is a safe treatment, and most people don’t experience any serious complications except minor bruising, swelling, or itching will vanish within 48 hours.

Bottom line:

It is very crucial to have this treatment in a genuine and experienced aesthetic center that is professional in service. It will make you sure about the safety and efficiency of the procedure.

What is Salt Facial Glow hydration?

Who can get After Glow aesthetics & wellness facial?

Every skin type will benefit from the After Glow aesthetics & wellness Salt Facial Glow a hydrating facial with a few exceptions.

Specific benefits from having a After Glow aesthetics & wellness hydrate facial:

1) Get a refreshed and oil-free face.

Throughout the day, the skin is exposed to dirt, debris, and bacteria, which clogs the pores and leaves the surface looking dry. Cleansing and exfoliation as part of the process, allow your skin to “exhale” unwanted toxins making it ready to “inhale” the full benefits of the facial treatment. It rids your skin of dead skin cells, regenerating a fresh, new skin cell layer.

2) Experience exceptional “glow up”.

Being hydrated brightens your overall look. After Glow aesthetics & wellness  Salt Hydration treatment provides the nutrients your skin needs to achieve a revitalized glow. The procedure uses LED-light technology, which makes the skin more absorbent of the infused serums and keeps moisture locked in the skin

3) Younger Looking skin

Facial hydration uses hydrating, anti-aging serums which add volume to the clients’ skin. One of the essential functions of the serum in facial treatments is that it can penetrate the skin and deliver a high concentration of active ingredients deeper in the skin layers. Serums are lightweight, making it an excellent component for targeting specific skincare concerns like the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

4) Fair skin texture and tone

Uneven skin tones, dark and dry patches are removed through exfoliation. Exfoliation eliminates the superficial layer of the skin in which unwanted elements such as dead cells reside, revealing a new smooth, even and brighter skin layer.

5) Controls Oil

The oil in the skin makes the skin hydrated, but as the saying goes, too much oil can cause skin problems such as acne and pimples breakouts. Hydration helps control the excess oil in the skin, making your skin look fresh.

6) Boosts Confidence

Pampering yourself with facial treatments like facial hydrate will help maintain refreshed looking skin, making you always ready to go wherever and whenever. Nothing beats the confidence you earn from a fully rejuvenated skin!

Earlobe Fillers are becoming very popular.

Earlobe Fillers are becoming very popular. Many factors like wearing heavy earrings, constant exposure to the sun, and neglecting skin issues could put a lot of strain on your earlobes. Have you had a close look at your earlobes lately? They may be fresh and plump earlier, but you could observe some thinning and dropping with aging and other factors. Without your attention, your earlobes could already have hanging lobes that are very thin and appear to break anytime. The reason this happens is due to the natural loss of elasticity and collagen. While some may feel that this is a natural aging process and allow the lobes to hang freely, many will want to go back to a fresh and youthful appearance. Modern advancements in treatments like those offered at After Glow aesthetic & wellness in Tampa have developed an effective solution of earlobe fillers to correct the earlobe issues.

 

What are Earlobe fillers? Do they work?

They are Hyaluronic acid fillers that are injected into the earlobe using a tiny needle. This aids in filling up collapsed or saggy earlobes and smoothing fine lines created with the loss of collagen and elastin. So why do earlobe fillers have hyaluronic acid in them? Because hyaluronic acid is a key component in your skin and retains over 1000 times its weight in water. This is important and needed to help support collagen and elastin. It will also help in evening out the earlobe skin and create a younger look to the ears. Many women love to wear various fancy earrings, but face stretched piercing holes after some years of usage. These fillers help to make the holes smaller and give a younger look. Earlobe filler’s results will last up to one year, and earrings can be worn without any issues after the treatment. The results last longer because there is no active muscle movement as in the face. Filler treatment in active muscle movement areas of the face causes quick degradation of substances compared to the ear that will last double the time. Experienced skin specialists can design a personalized program that may help treat all skin issues and filler treatment. Even chemical peeling is recommended along with these filler treatments to provide more youthful skin. Once there are signs of a decrease in results, these fillers can be injected again. There could be some slight swelling, redness, or bruising in the treated area after the treatment, but it will fade away after a couple of days.

Who are the right candidates for this procedure?

If you observe your skin showing signs of aging due to a lack of collagen, then using earlobe fillers may be a great option for you. This is most common for women in their 40s particularly if they enjoy wearing large-sized earrings for longer periods of time, but could also be seen in the younger generation who are much exposed to sunlight. Any person with wrinkled and large earlobes is the right candidate for this procedure. But ensure to consult a reliable and experienced professional to receive the treatment.

What are the causes of ear lobe volume loss and fine lines?

  • The skin present on the ear is the same as other parts of the body but neglected even in applying normal skincare creams or sunscreen lotions. There will also be a natural loss of volume as we get older similar to our face. This mixture of wrinkles, sun damage, loss of collagen, and elasticity alters the shape of earlobes, expands them, and ultimately causes them to hang lower.
  • Neglecting the ear issues and not consulting any skincare specialists to find any rough or uneven pigmentations could lead to major issues shortly.
  • Wearing heavy earrings frequently will lead to the dragging of the piercing. This ultimately leads to the elongation of the hole and hanging earlobes. They could also lead to one more issue of thinning of the ear lobes. Hence it is always best not to wear larger-sized earrings if required, or only wear them for a shorter duration. Also, ensure to wear earring backing discs even for studs if you wear them regularly. This is important to keep the holes in proper strength and firmness for a longer time.
  • Make sure to remove earrings when you are at home or resting. Go for light ones regularly to avoid unnecessary stress on the earlobes and reserve the heavy ones for any special event.

Are dermal filler injections in the earlobe safe?

  • These filler injections are very safe when administered by an experienced and certified skin specialist with proven records. Such dermatologists who have been doing skin treatments for many years and would be aware of all the advanced treatment techniques in the industry. They will offer a customized treatment plan to suit your precise issue and provide you with all the guidelines to follow after the treatment. When you see the results fading off, you can revisit the specialist for treatment.
  • The majority of patients will see good results in just one treatment session, but a second session will provide the best results. The results will be temporary as in all other skin treatments, but they last for an average of a year and more in some cases.
  • To achieve a complete earlobe rejuvenation, many people will undergo a mixture of treatments along with fillers. This will be useful to effectively treat all other skin issues at the same treatment session of earlobe treatment. You could discuss your aesthetic goals with your doctor to provide you with a solid treatment plan.

Bottom line:

  • Earlobes lose collagen and elastin-like other regions due to aging factors, increased eating use, sun exposure. Sagging and stretched earlobes can be enhanced naturally by using hyaluronic acid fillers. But you should take care to ensure any cosmetic fillers should only be done by a professional injector who has undertaken extensive training in performing injectable procedures, like experts at After Glow aesthetic & wellness. Our physicians have extensive training and skill set in performing dermal filler injections for complete facial rejuvenation. We offer comprehensive and customized care to your requirements and suggest the best treatments / fillers in Tampa that are the best for you based on your goals.

Why should you choose ZO medical-grade

Why should you choose ZO medical-grade products over other skincare brands?

ZO isn’t just simply a skincare brand carrying the same empty promises that are thrown around from Oil of Olay to anything you can buy at Sephora. Even the better spa brands and clinical brands available from a dermatologist or other medical spas may not be offering the level of change and overall skin health that you ultimately want or need. ZO skin health products actually have the correct medical-grade ingredients to create a dramatic change in acne, hyperpigmentation, uneven texture, uneven skin tone, and, of course, the signs of aging!

ZO targets the skin at its natural pH which is more acidic than most product lines dare to go. Because it’s medical grade, we monitor your results and progress due to the lower pH and strength of the product ingredients in the line. We create custom skin health programs for you that we work through together because skincare is LONG TERM. We want your results to be long term as well! Being on a consistent program is what generates overall skin health, which in turn provides the skin’s natural barrier, the moisture and anti-aging benefits it’s supposed to be producing on its own!

A critical mistake that some patients make is neglecting the maintenance of their treatment. Botox and Dysport may metabolize at different rates depending on the person, but typically the treated area should be re-injected after about 3-4 months.

If you keep-up on your Botox/Dysport, the dosage can be fine-tuned to your exact prescribed needs. This can not only prevent over or under-treating the area, but saves you money and time in the long run.

When you come in to see us, make sure to book your next appointment with us! Most Botox/Dysport procedures take only 10 – 15 minutes, allowing you to return to your daily activities in a flash! Our staff is highly trained to offer you quality service and results while keeping your health and safety the top priority.

Our providers at After Glow aesthetics & wellness are all extremely skilled and precise when it comes to your Botox/Dysport treatment.
