COSMETIC MEDICINE<br />
The desire to refresh the face through subtle<br />
rejuvenation has made non-surgical cosmetic<br />
procedures a popular part of today’s beauty arsenal,<br />
reflecting a preference for less invasive procedures<br />
with shorter downtime and a ‘less is more’ attitude.<br />
<strong>Cosmetic</strong> medicine can improve some of the most common signs of ageing<br />
such as facial lines and wrinkles; a gaunt and hollowed appearance;<br />
sun-damaged skin; acne and acne scars; a dull and uneven complexion;<br />
and sagging facial structures.<br />
Whether <strong>by</strong> using wrinkle injections, fillers, medical-grade peels or advanced<br />
light therapies, the array of choices available can treat just about any appearancerelated<br />
concern. Maintenance is the key and earlier, less-invasive procedures can<br />
actually delay the effects of ageing on the face, sometimes even negating the<br />
need for more invasive procedures.<br />
It is important, however, for prospective patients to thoroughly understand<br />
the procedure (or combination of procedures) they wish to undergo. A skilled<br />
and accredited cosmetic doctor will help guide each patient through the myriad<br />
of options, select the most appropriate course of action for the patient’s specific<br />
concerns and ultimately achieve the best possible, natural-looking results for<br />
the individual.<br />
Any cosmetic enhancement should be chosen for the right reasons and not in<br />
the impossible pursuit of perfection. Non-surgical cosmetic enhancement offers<br />
patients with realistic expectations the chance to look younger and rejuvenated,<br />
no matter what their age.<br />
