Tweakments (part 2)
In this episode we discuss even more tweakments, mostly the ones we ran out of time to cover in the first episode!! We talk about platelet rich plasma (PRP aka the vampire facial), Intense Pulse Light treatment (IPL) resurfacing (resurFX) which stimulates deep collagen regeneration, Exilis - a treatment that induces collagen, ultherapy - non invasive skin tightening and belkyra - destroying fat cells on the chin.
These are all treatments that will complement botox and fillers but are also ideal options for listeners who would prefer a minimally invasive treatment. Lots of these treatments also work for people with rosacea, broken veins, abnormal skin, pigment issues and scarring.
Niki and Catriona share the truth behind the Kim Kardashian vampire facial, and the treatments that will help get that glowy look, deal with red veins, abnormal skin tone,fine lines,double chin, saggy eyelids, loose skin on their neck and of course help keep that collagen plumped! . They also tell listeners how long it can take for these treatments to show results, how long they will last and share just how far they will each go on their cosmetic dermatology journey...
