ANTI AGEING THERAPY Treatment At The Westlake Clinic

Anti ageing therapy aims to slow down the ageing process through early detection, prevention and treatment of age-related symptoms.

The ageing is a gradual, continuous process of natural change in the futures and body that begins in early adulthood and is clearly visible when our body stops to produce the Hyaluronic Acid.

There are three types of ageing: genetic ageing, environmental ageing and hormonal ageing, each of which can cause fine lines, wrinkles and loss of firmness.

Other ageing accumulates over time, like skin damage caused by sun exposure.

As a result, ageing is a combination of bodily changes and the impact of how we feel about ourselves.

These and other issues often give rise to negative emotions such as sadness, anxiety, loneliness and lowered self-esteem, which in turn lead to social withdrawal and apathy.

FIRST SIGNS OF AGEING

Wrinkles - fine lines around the eyes and laughter lines become to be noticeable at the age around 30 but it entirely depends on our genetics or lifestyle. These lines are followed by wrinkles on a forehead. At first, these are only visible when our skin moves as we change our facial expressions and they are known as dynamic wrinkles. As we age further they become more prominent and evolve into permanent wrinkles that are visible even when our face is static. Frowning can cause vertical lines between the brows giving an angry look.

Loss of volume - It can be difficult to identify a loss of volume and facial contours. The first signs of a loss of volume in the lips tend to be when lipstick starts to bleed. A loss of facial volume tends to result in sagging skin, a flattening of the cheeks and the appearance of a “turkey neck”. It changes the overall appearance of the face which can look negative, sad or tired. The fold that develops between the nose and the mouth, known as the nasolabial fold, is also linked to sagging skin.

Loss of elasticity and deep wrinkles - As our skin matures its structure weakens and it loses elasticity and firmness. Skin also becomes drier, appears more `crepey` and loses the radiance we associate with youthful skin. Again, because our skin is as individual as we are, these changes become visible at different ages but are most commonly experienced by those who are 50+.

SKIN AGEING PREVENTION & THERAPY

The healthy and functioning skin barrier is an important protector against dehydration, penetration of various microorganisms, allergens, irritants, reactive oxygen species and radiation. The skin barrier may be specifically adjusted to allow penetration. For this reason, daily skincare may increase skin regeneration, elasticity, smoothness, and thus temporarily change the skin condition.

Topical Pharmacological Agents with Antiageing Properties. There are two main groups of agents that can be used as anti-ageing cream components, the antioxidants and the cell regulators. The antioxidants, such as vitamins, polyphenols and flavonoids, reduce collagen degradation by reducing the concentration of free radicals (FR) in the tissue. The cells regulators, such as retinoids, peptides and growth factors (GF), have a direct effect on collagen metabolism and influence collagen production.

Vitamin supplementation - The role of orally or IV delivered vitamins in skin health has been under discussion since its discovery. The co-factor role for collagen hydroxylases was the first vitamin C function that was closely tied to the symptoms of scurvy and the realisation of the importance of this function for the maintenance of skin health throughout the human lifespan led to the hypothesised skin health benefit of vitamin C. In addition, the antioxidant activity of vitamin C made it an excellent candidate as a protective factor against UV irradiation.
