As of November 3, 2023, Clarity will no longer be offering CoolSculpting. While we pride ourselves on offering the latest and most effective aesthetic treatments, our space at the Dollhouse is limited. This change will allow us to shift our focus entirely towards anti-aging and skin rejuvenation treatments for our patients. We appreciate your understanding. — Kati and the Clarity team
You’ve made a decision. This is the year that you’re finally going to take action and make some changes. You’re tired of looking at yourself in the mirror and scrutinizing wrinkles, lost volume, areas of fat that you can’t get rid of no matter how much you diet and exercise. You’re ready to restore a more youthful appearance to your face and body and regain the confidence you have lost. But maybe you’re not sure where to start.
Don’t worry—we’ve got you covered! At Clarity Medical Aesthetics, we’re on top of the latest trends and offer a variety of procedures to help you achieve your goals. And to help alleviate some of your confusion, we’ve outlined the top five most popular (and most fabulous!) trends of 2018.
1. Vaginal Rejuvenation
Okay, ladies, we know this is a tough one to talk about. You may not mind discussing remedies for wrinkles or for getting rid of extra fat, but when it comes to “down there,” it seems to be such a taboo topic. But it shouldn’t be. There are over 15 million women in America dealing with the symptoms of vaginal aging. And some of the worst of these symptoms may include vaginal laxity and stress urinary incontinence. You may also experience dryness, painful intercourse and fading orgasms, which can have a serious impact on your sex life and can affect your partner as well.
What if we told you that we had a way to reverse the signs of vaginal aging, and there was no need for invasive procedures? Sounds pretty great, right? Trust us, it’s just as great as it sounds. Instead of surgery, which used to be the go-to for vaginal rejuvenation, we use radio-frequency. A specialized probe that delivers heat intravaginally works to stimulate collagen production, tighten the vaginal muscles and increase your natural lubrication. Results are noticeable right away, and there is no downtime. It only takes three appointments, each of which takes less than 20 minutes.
2. PRP/PRF
While much of aging is a natural process, there are so many factors that come into play that can speed it up—much to our dismay. Things such as sun exposure, lifestyle habits like smoking, even genetics, can all accelerate the process. You might start seeing fine lines, volume loss, discoloration or texture changes in your skin. PRP/PRF can help. PRP is platelet rich plasma and PRF is platelet rich fibron.
This unique treatment utilizes your own blood to rejuvenate and regenerate your skin as well as stimulate hair regrowth when used in conjunction with microneedling. We extract a small sample of your own blood and then spin it in a centrifuge. This separates the platelet rich plasma/fibron from the platelet poor plasma in your own blood. We then inject or massage the PRP/PRF into the treatment areas. The platelets have full of growth hormones that stimulate skin cells, and collagen growth. It can also be used in conjunction with dermal fillers, as well as radio frequency, laser treatments and microneedling.
3. Longer Lasting Dermal Fillers
Speaking of dermal fillers, if you have lost volume in your face or noticed wrinkles starting to form, they may be the solution for you. And they’re not just for use on your face. While they are becoming a popular replacement for facial surgery procedures, restoring your nose, sculpting the jawline, or adding structure to the chin, dermal fillers can also be used on the chest, hands, above the knees, the soles of the feet, and more.
Because surgical procedures are declining, the demand for longer lasting dermal fillers is increasing. This led to the development of FDA-approved dermal fillers made with hyaluronic acid, which is a natural substance that already exists within human skin, and works to keep it hydrated and full. At Clarity, we offer a variety of different dermal fillers, including Sculptra®, Juvederm®, Voluma® and Bellafill®, and some of these fillers can last upwards of two years.
4. Non-Surgical Fat Removal
Whether you’ve been good at keeping up with your New Year’s resolution, or you’ve been working out and eating right for a while now, extra pockets of unwanted fat that just don’t want to go away can be a real downer. Even though you’re in shape and healthy, you are still embarrassed about your appearance. Well, we can help, and no, it doesn’t involve liposuction.
There are a couple of ways in which we can help you eliminate unwanted fat without surgery. One is the revolutionary CoolSculpting. CoolSculpting is a treatment that literally freezes the fat away. We simply place the appropriate applicator to the target area, which “sicks” the fat while cooling panels go to work freezing fat cells. Gradually, after your treatment, the body begins to flush out the dead fat cells, causing them to disappear forever.
The other option for eliminating unwanted fat sans surgery is Kybella. Kybella is an injectable that is used to destroy fat under the chin, getting rid of the appearance of a double chin. Injections only take a few minutes, and work to disrupt the fat cells, causing them to disappear. In just a few treatment sessions, you can achieve a permanent, smoother, younger-looking chin.
5. Eye Rejuvenation
Your eyes are often one of the first things that people notice about you, and they are often one of the first places to show signs of aging. The delicate skin around them is exposed to a myriad of emotions, hours of sunshine, the atmosphere and more. All of these factors lead to crow’s feet, sagging eyelids, crepey skin and dark circles under the eyes, all of which tack years onto your actual age.
One of my before and afters. It showcases how well dermal fillers work to eliminate dark circles and under eye hollows. And a little BOTOX did the trick on those lines between the brows!
We offer several different, non-invasive, treatments that can rejuvenate your eyes and restore their youth.
- BOTOX® can be used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles like crows feet and “11’s” those lines between your eyebrows, and let more light into the eyes.
- Dermal fillers restore lost volume, eliminating fine lines and wrinkles, dark circles and hollows in the upper and lower eyes.
- PRP/PRF, another one of our top trends for 2018, can be used to reduce wrinkles and discoloration.
- Microneedling, which is a type of mechanical peel, is a procedure that is designed to improve skin texture and stimulate collagen production.
- Radio-frequency, which heats the collagen in your skin, causing it to thicken and tighten, helps the skin around the eyes to tighten, and can even raise sinking brows.
At Clarity, we always have our finger on the pulse, working hard to bring you the best, most advanced treatments available. So, what is the trend for 2018? Cutting-edge, non-invasive procedures that restore your youthful appearance in the most natural ways possible! For more information, and to schedule your free consultation, contact us today!
