Anti-Aging

Overview

Non surgical anti ageing treatments are designed to soften visible signs of ageing and improve the overall quality of the skin without traditional surgery. Depending on your concerns, treatment may focus on hydration, collagen support, firmness, pigmentation, facial definition, texture or brightness. At Melt Aways, your skin is assessed before treatment so that recommendations reflect its present condition, your health history and the improvement you would realistically like to achieve.

How it works

Anti ageing care may involve one carefully selected treatment or a planned combination of techniques. Depending on your skin and the services considered suitable, this may include radiofrequency skin firming, microcurrent treatment, LED light therapy, rejuvenating facials, chemical exfoliation, ultrasound based treatment or another collagen supporting procedure. These methods work in different ways to hydrate the skin, support renewal, encourage collagen activity, improve firmness or address uneven tone and texture. Your practitioner will explain what each recommended procedure is intended to improve before treatment begins.

What to expect

Your appointment begins with an assessment of your skin type, sensitivity, hydration, texture, firmness, pigmentation, facial structure, current skincare and relevant health history. The treatment area will usually be cleansed before an appropriate gel, serum, protective layer or treatment product is applied. Depending on the procedure selected, you may experience gentle warmth, cooling, pressure, tingling, mild vibration, temporary tightness, light stinging or facial muscle movement. Your practitioner will monitor your comfort and skin response throughout the session. Some treatments may produce an immediate refreshed appearance, while improvements involving collagen, firmness or skin renewal generally develop more gradually.

Aftercare

Aftercare will depend on the procedure performed and your skin’s response. You may be instructed to keep the area clean, use gentle skincare, apply a suitable moisturiser and protect exposed skin with sunscreen. Avoid unnecessary heat, direct sun exposure, picking, rubbing or exfoliating sensitive skin. Strong acids, retinoids, active ingredients and heavy makeup may need to be paused for the period advised. Maintain normal hydration unless medically restricted. Contact Melt Aways if you experience blistering, severe pain, worsening swelling, unusual discolouration or another unexpected reaction. Instructions provided during your appointment should always take priority.
