Fine Lines & Wrinkles

Fine lines and wrinkles can be caused by various factors. Some of these factors are beyond our control, like genetics and the natural aging process, while others are influenced by environmental and lifestyle factors.

  • One of the primary causes of fine lines and wrinkles is a decrease in collagen and elastin production as we age. Collagen and elastin are essential proteins that keep our skin supple, firm, and elastic. As we age, the rate of collagen and elastin decreases, making our skin thinner, weaker, and more prone to wrinkles.

  • Environmental factors like exposure to UV radiation, pollution, and harsh weather conditions can also contribute to collagen and elastin breakdown, causing wrinkles and fine lines to appear prematurely.

  • Another factor that can lead to fine lines and wrinkles is dehydration. When the skin is dehydrated, it lacks the plumping effect of hydration, making fine lines more noticeable.

Volume Loss

Facial volume loss is a common issue that occurs as a natural part of the aging process. It is primarily caused by the breakdown of essential proteins like collagen and elastin, which provide structure and elasticity to the skin. Combined with genetic factors and shifts in fat distribution, it can lead to the loss of facial volume.

  • One of the noticeable signs of facial volume loss is the loss of plumpness and definition in the cheeks. As collagen and fat diminish, the cheeks can appear sunken or hollow, which can contribute to an aged or tired look.

  • The temples, located on the sides of the forehead, can also experience volume loss. This can result in a concave appearance or a hollowed-out look in this area.

  • Loss of facial volume can lead to the formation of deep folds, such as nasolabial folds (lines that run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth) and marionette lines (lines that form from the corners of the mouth downwards). These folds and wrinkles become more pronounced as volume diminishes.

  • As collagen and elastin fibers break down, the skin loses its natural elasticity and becomes less firm. This can result in a loss of overall fullness and a sagging or drooping appearance.

Lackluster skin

Lackluster skin is a common concern characterised by a dull, tired, and lifeless complexion. Various factors contribute to this issue, including aging, environmental stressors, lifestyle choices, and skincare habits.

  • Your skin may appear dull and lack the healthy glow typically associated with vibrant, youthful skin.

  • The buildup of dead skin cells and inadequate hydration can make fine lines and wrinkles more noticeable, giving your skin an aged and tired look.

  • A decrease in collagen and elastin production can reduce skin elasticity, causing it to sag and appear less resilient.

  • The accumulation of dead skin cells can create a rough and uneven texture, making your skin look aged and less smooth.

Unwanted Moles

Moles, also known as nevi, are growths on the skin that are typically brown or black in color. They can appear anywhere on the body and are made up of clusters of pigmented cells. Moles are usually harmless and can be present from birth or develop over time. While most moles are benign, it is important to monitor them for any changes in size, shape, color, or texture, as this could be a sign of skin cancer. If you notice any unusual changes in a mole, it is recommended to consult for evaluation.

  • These moles are typically small, round or oval-shaped, and have a uniform colour. They are usually harmless, but should be monitored for any changes.

  • Atypical moles often have irregular borders, uneven colouring, and may be larger than common moles. They can resemble melanoma, so it's important to have them checked regularly.

  • These moles are present at birth and can vary in size and color. Larger congenital moles may have a higher risk of developing into skin cancer.

  • These are moles that develop after birth and can appear anywhere on the body. They are usually smaller and have a more uniform colour and shape.
