today we're going to talk about skin rejuvenation for women in their 50s what
it is what are our options and things to avoid to keep you out of trouble so if
you'd like to know more please keep watching hi I'm Schellea this is fabulous
50s a Lifestyle channel that celebrates women in their 50s and today we have a
beautiful woman in her 50s Danielle a boma and she is a multi award-winning
beauty therapist and she does consulting for all the different machines that are
available to help us rejuvenate our skin Daniella is going to share with us
things to look for when you're trying to decide what treatment to get what we
need to know basically is where we're going whether the treatment facility is
accredited whether they're registered whether or not their machinery is
actually TGA approved machines which means Australia has approved them to be
safe not all machines need to be TGA approved but if you're going to go into
ablative treatments that means treatments that burn the skin to
rejuvenate the skin you're going to have to know that that that's TGA approved so
you have to actually ask some questions before you decide to go ahead if the
someone wants you to have the treatment straight away without tests patching
don't do it every ablative treatment or rejuvenation treatment that requires
topical anesthetic generally will require test shots because if you're
going to have a nasty side effect or be slightly over treated or slightly under
treated you'll find out through test shots the co2 lasers or the erbium
lasers they're a little bit updated now but in my opinion shouldn't be used by
beauty therapists I think they're too risky and there are other pieces of
equipment that can give rejuvenation to the skin that's a lot safer okay we do a
lot of micro fractional treatment with radiofrequency so that's when little
needles or pins and to the upper layers of the skin slightly oblate the skin and
penetrate the skin or perforate the skin this causes collagen production to heal
the surface of the skin and it's very effective we get great results right
through from scarring from acne to pigmentation slight pigmentation evening
out that complexion very good for tightening pores the skin sheds really
within about seven days so you get a nice result by the end of the week see
we use a machine by Pollagen it's called the divine pro it's an amazing
machine it has two functions it has the micro fractional treatment and it also
has a radio frequency with DMA DMA is a new technology that's just been released
it's called deep muscle activation so we're actually tightening the skin but
we're also activating muscle so okay like the liver merely been done before
like building muscles at the gym we're actually exercising the face the facial
muscles because if the facial muscles are taught and firm and activated then
it's a great support structure for the skin so the skin with radio waves can
tighten on top so it's a fabulous fabulous treatment so someone wanted to
get that treatment but should they get their skin right first or should that be
done yeah we always do a we always do a consultation first we usually recommend
a nice facial treatment to prep the skin home treatment products we recommend
Biodroga or we are a buyer Of Biodroga salon the ambassador this year for biodroga
and it's a great honor to do that because I've been using the product and
selling it for 34 years so it's a fabulous prep treatment program for any
kind of ablative treatment or any treatment with heat because with
radiofrequency skin tightening we we actually raise the temperature of the
skin to 40 degrees so if we're just doing skin tightening we prep the skin
with hyaluronic acids which hydrate the skin
yeah we know that radiofrequency is attracted to water so if the skin's
highly concentrated we have hyaluronic acid you're going to get a much quicker
and more effective tightening response if you want a deeper rejuvenation for
women in their 50s we'd go for the deeper penetrating and when they get rid
of wrinkles does that it'll help diminish fine lines yeah it's not a
facelift it's it's going to give your skin a
subtle but effective tightening okay and this will prolong you thinking about
other options that are more surgical or more invasive if women who don't live in
Sydney which is where you're located in South Sydney but if they're not where
would they find information on Devine Pro because I've never heard of that
before okay so divine Pro is by a company by
Pollagen which is distributed through a company in Melbourne called the Global
Beauty Group so I would recommend anybody wanting to have the divine Pro
they can call the global beauty group in Melbourne and they will give you a list
of all the some ones that actually use their machine and this is brand new this
is so a new technology you've heard of this honey launched I think last year
late last year okay yeah so but but it does give really great result amazing
results so this would be something that women in their 50s could have a go don't
know and they'll see definitely in fact I've got clients that have stopped
having filler okay and really really yep they've decided that their results have
been so good it you know the treatment itself is is instant obviously the more
you have the better the result will be we always recommend a course of
treatment okay so usually five to ten treatments one a week and what this idea
range for that well it will vary from state to state we charge around two
hundred dollars per treatment okay so it'll be about a thousand dollars for
fine roughly which is what someone would pay
for fill out anyway that's right that's right and and it's a different it's
non-invasive not in base then the beauty of it is also that it's
like the gift that keeps giving back down the track you're still getting
collagen induction therapy I throw another package that you may have had at
the beginning of the year if if that's too much money to afford is it going to
be benefit for people just to get one even once emu and they're going to feel
great find something new 100 and excited about having some sort of change in fact
we get lots of people can say before their daughter's wedding or this month
wedding twenty-firsts all the family occasions that you just want to look
fresh okay it actually really gives you a lovely definition through the the
neckline cheekbones jawline weekend great results I'm just that done it just
sharpens everything up like facetune which is the beauty app for photos yes
everything after that's funny radio waves been around a long time but
okay the machines are just getting more state-of-the-art every year yeah cuz
technologies are so ridiculous isn't it yeah yeah okay so if you wanting to try
something and it you don't want to spend too much money have one go you can see
the benefits my hand yeah it maybe get a voucher or something Christmas bonus or
birthday to to get some more that's a way to afford it exactly what about
women in their 50s who spent all their life in this in the Sun and they've got
nice big sunspots okay so there's things that we should use for that okay so
we've gone through the co2 in the erbium lasers which would be great for
pigmentation and rejuvenation but yeah if you want to do something that's not
as invasive or as deep or is dangerous dangerous we do IPL pigmentation
removals or in skin rejuvenation we get great results with that if you find a
salon or a therapist that's quite experienced in in that area that would
be my choice we also use a q-switch laser a NDA q-switch laser we're
lucky enough in our salon to have the tribe in the Tri beam is a very very
good powerful machine it's quite high end and
that performs beautifully and gives us an amazing result what we can do with
that machine is isolate a freckle the size of a pinhead if we want to we can
one-shot and it will be attractive to the pigment in the skin it will shatter
the pigment cells the body will then absorb the cells and some of it will
topically shed and that gives a really nice result and that's a little bit less
invasive than IPL because we can just do the odd spot in the areas so would you
do your whole face in that one i modeli would and I would do IPL overdoing okay
but I have a lot of ladies ago oh I don't want that invasive IPL treatment
it's it's painful in it and it's a bit scary and I understand that I've had all
of these treatments and they are scary and they okay they do hurt you know
let's face it yeah beauty is pain but you've got the option if there's one big
freckle or sunspot that you want to have removed we can just do that with that
machine with the Tri beam okay we predominantly use that machine for
tattoo removal because it works at shuttering pigment cells so but it can
work on pigmentation spots as well okay because a lot of ladies I know just
they've got one yep and they'd totally I don't really know what whether they need
the whole face done so this is a great opportunity exactly
okay that's great and what about what do we do for little veins
okay so again we're up a little vein we can use the Tri beam on a different
wavelength that's very effective on on blood vessels broken blood vessels also
we have a machine that we use it's called
well it's a radiofrequency machine again with needling so it's a single needle
disposable needle and it delivers radio waves and we tap along the blood vessel
it cauterizes the vessel the skin becomes quite inflamed the the vein
itself will just sort of coagulate dry out and then
to the body okay and that's been very effective for blood vessel removal as
well right so we can rejuvenate our collagen that's the several thing isn't
it and this is what all of these treatments do they just rejuvenate our
collagen yeah so we trick the skin into thinking that we're really severely
wounding it so that I can love that collagen starts to produce and migrate
to heal the skin and that's how we get our collagen induction and tightening
over a longer period of time so all of these processes
it's fabulous yeah because our totally not feeling like a cut that's right
that's that's exactly right so we're not we're not necessarily injecting filler
or doing anything artificial where we're making you work for yourself oh yeah
that's really good at yes yeah I actually had a meeting with a fabulous
plastic surgeon the other day in regards to what you know the new technologies
are around also not just in the beauty industry but in in the medical industry
yeah a lot of plastic surgeons are now doing fat grafting and you know it's
amazing what can be done instead of using injectables they're actually using
our own fat so they do a little bit of like say for instance a little little
bit of liposuction through this area and then it's being injected through the
nasolabial folds around the lips so that's your fat being injected back
into your body you're not putting a foreign body back into your beautiful
doctor dr. Rima Haddy she's just amazing she's in the
Sutherland Shire she is all for naturally you know rejuvenating so you'd
call that natural it's well I and then yeah I would but I've never been a fan
of filler but I'm actually thinking I've just turned 50 over the last 12 months
I've been thinking you know never say never but I love the idea of using my
own body fat yeah let's face it we've all but little pockets of body fat that
we would like to have removed and put in areas that we need it because as we get
older this is the first area of our body that loses fat yeah face that's why our
face drops and and we know we get these bits here
and there and so I'm all for that I can you know I started to come around with a
few few other options okay so can I just ask you you said one of the things that
can go wrong something to be really aware of when you're out doing research
it's the co2 laser if it's done wrong you can stop you from producing fat in
your face it can damage it can actually damage the fat cells and it can damage
your skin so if it's done incorrectly or if you're over treated the damage is
worse than then yeah what you realize because we need our fat interface we do
link fat in our face exactly yeah as we as it aging and some of these really
aggressive treatments can affect our fat so you've got to be really careful that
the Machine your operator is I believe they should be your dermatologist to
certified dermatologist to be doing co2 in erbium lasers it's only my opinion
but who would want to risk like we don't want to risk anything we want to
rejuvenate and make ourselves look better and there are fabulous
dermatologists yeah they do erbium and co2 that do an amazing job so
I can't leave it to leave it to the doctor yeah okay so yeah that's a really
good tip we don't want people to make a massive mistake and then that's right
and we treat a lot of women post co2 and lasers that have damaged their skin to
try and get their skin back and it's very difficult so I'm really glad I know
that okay yeah a lot of women just go straight into the treatments yeah I'll
just have some resurfacing down and you know their eyes down there is is you
know negative sites to doing deep deep lasers with people that don't know what
they're doing so you know I I saw I would have done that because I want to
get rid of these lines here and and there's some some great photos of older
ladies with really wrinkly skin and it looks amazing so I'd be drawn to all
looks good but I'm not gonna risk I don't want to risk not know until the
technology maybe an agreement also people only put up their best work oh
that's so true you know I when I research when I when I
want to you know if I was thinking about doing any kind of plastic surgery I
would I would be leaning more towards experience yeah I think doctors that
don't put a lot of content on their websites before-and-after photos I don't
think that's a bad thing I actually think you know what I just
said about you know doctors only put their best work up it's very you know
like true just because the doctor doesn't have a lot of photos on his
website doesn't mean he's not an absolutely brilliant doctor yep yeah
that's really true so much to think about I've learnt a lot and I hope
you've all learned something too so let's do some great stuff to make our
skin look better but research research research thank you for watching please
