Facial redensification offers many benefits, but one of the most valued effects is that of very natural results. Unlike other treatments, there are no “strange” effects on the face.
Redensification is a new treatment designed to prevent premature aging. It works from the properties of hyaluronic acid, one of the most effective components in the therapeutic approach to the skin.
One of the most remarkable aspects of the redensification treatment is the fact that it allows obtaining more than satisfactory results without resorting to surgery. It not only prevents aging, but also corrects its damage.
The facial variant of the treatment has gained a lot of notoriety, because it is simple and offers immediate results. It is shown to be effective in improving the texture, luminosity, elasticity and hydration of the skin.
What is facial redensification?
Facial redensification is a treatment to rejuvenate the skin that uses hyaluronic acid and vitamins. Corrects and prevents the signs of aging by activating the functions of the skin cells.
Unlike other treatments, redensification does not paralyze the facial muscle. What it does is provide a filler in the dermis. This allows delaying the appearance of wrinkles and modifies the existing ones.
With this treatment, the skin experiences very evident improvements without changing the appearance of the face noticeably. In other words, it is very natural. It is indicated to treat wrinkles in areas such as the face, neck and décolletage.
How does it work?
Facial redensification is a easy to apply and minimally invasive treatment. It has a restructuring power on the skin and promotes cell regeneration. Likewise, it has antioxidant properties.
The procedure consists of the application of small injections of hyaluronic acid in the affected areas. These are painless and cause a small swelling of the skin.
Typically, a minimum of 3 sessions are required, each for half an hour. However, this depends on the state of each person’s skin.
Ideally, the procedure should be repeated once a year.
The injection can be applied at the superficial, medium or deep level of the skin. A non-crosslinked, high molecular weight hyaluronic acid is used. This compound is sterile, is not of animal origin and is biodegradable.
Treatment characteristics
Each of the 3 sessions required in facial redensification must be done three weeks apart each. Typically, the effects are seen with the naked eye within 48 hours. It is indicated for both young and mature skin.
The most common is that the effects of redensification remain between 6 and 9 months. However, this depends on the habits of each person and the way they take care of their skin.
When applied to mature skin, its action is to modify the structure of the skin. This results in a filling of wrinkles and folds, as well as a restoration of natural volume.
Redensification thickens the skin, while reducing roughness and micro-reliefs, thus generating a smoother and more uniform texture. The result is a skin with greater density, firmer, brighter and more elastic.
Benefits of redensification
One of the great benefits of redensification has to do with the increase in skin hydration. this treatment has the ability to penetrate to the deep layers of the skin and provide hydration, but also forms a kind of protective barrier that prolongs the effect.
Likewise, it strengthens the skin. The consequence is that the skin is less vulnerable to free radicals.
redensification accelerates cell regeneration and stimulates collagen production. It also improves pigmentation and therefore prevents the appearance of age spots.
Advice and recommendations against redensification
Facial redensification treatment is compatible with other procedures, As the antiaging and the booster. In fact, applying them together is a great idea to achieve a comprehensive revitalization of the skin.
As this procedure is minimally invasive, it is highly recommended for people undergoing this type of approach for the first time, regardless of age. It does not require hospitalization and the treated person can return to their daily routine immediately.
The usual thing is that it does not cause pain or that it is almost imperceptible. However, it rarely causes more noticeable discomfort. Also in rare cases, redness or bruising is reported.
It is more advisable to apply the injections for the first time around the age of 30. This would help slow down the appearance of signs of aging.
Although it can be planned at any time, it would be better to do it at the end of the summer. On those dates there is more dryness, roughness, marked wrinkles and spots due to the effects of the summer season.
