Frequently asked questions about our cosmetic dermatology anti-aging treatments for men and women

The natural process of aging cannot be escaped, but thanks to modern science, it can be reversed to some extent, with the help of anti-aging treatments. At Dermiq Hyderabad, India’s premier skin clinic, you can choose one of the many anti-aging treatments for men and women to enjoy a youthful looking skin. Here’s all you need to know about these treatments. 

When should I start getting anti-aging treatments?

When you should start getting anti-aging services depends on many factors like your general skin health, genetics, and overall goals. You can start getting these treatments as early as in your twenties, or even start later when you are in your early to mid 30s to see the best results. Services like laser treatments, chemical peels, and skin boosters can be opted for early use of these treatments. 

Is it safe to get multiple types of anti-aging treatments together?

Modern cosmetic dermatology allows people to combine multiple types of treatments without suffering any harmful consequences. This means that if you choose to combine multiple treatments, you will see the results for each one of them. However, which treatment is paired or combined with which must be guided by the professionals. For instance, you can combine botox with fillers to enhance the effects. 

What should I expect when getting an anti-aging service?

The process of anti-aging services begins with a consultation to understand your concerns and goals, and suggesting the best treatment courses to address the issues. During consultations, it’s essential that you clearly lay down your requirements, and ask questions about the treatment process, how to prepare for it, post care tips, etc. After the treatment is done, you may need to stay indoors for certain types of treatments, or require no downtime for some. Make sure you take care of your skin in the post treatment recovery phase to get the best results. 

Are the results of anti-aging treatments permanent?

No. The results of anti-aging solutions are not permanent, however, they can last for a very long time. How long they last for you depends upon several factors, but mainly on the type of treatment you choose. For instance, the results of a botox treatment can last anywhere between 3 months to 6 months for an individual. Fillers however can last much longer, going between 6 months to 18 months. Other treatments like chemical peels last for a long duration based on how well you take care of your skin. 

How many days after treatment can I see results?

Once the anti-aging services are completed, you can witness results very quickly. For some treatments, like dermal fillers, you can witness an instant result with the fillers enhancing volume of the target area. For others like botox, results can take 4 days to 7 days to become visible. Chemical peels also offer an instantaneous improvement in skin tone, but over a few following days, the glow becomes fully visible. 

Will I experience pain during the anti-aging treatments?

When getting any of these treatments performed, people do experience slight pain and discomfort. Any treatment which involves injecting or use of lasers will give a little bit of discomfort and strange sensation. For fillers, you may feel a pinching sensation. After the treatment is completed, the discomfort can remain for a few hours but resolves quickly on its own. Just make sure you follow the post treatment care tips carefully as advised by the professional. 

Are there any side effects of anti-aging treatments?

There are no significant side effects of anti-aging treatment in general. However, mild side effects such as soreness, redness, and mild bruising of the skin may be experienced. These issues resolve on their own in a few hours, but in rare cases, can persist. To know warning signs, consult your dermatologist and inform them if the mild side effects stay for a long period. Make sure you take all the precautions which they ask you to during the post treatment. 

What questions should I ask the dermatologist during consultations?

When you go in for the first consultation, explain what you want done, and ask for recommendations about treatments which you can use to achieve the desired look. For instance, in order to overcome fine lines and wrinkles, the specialist may suggest botox or fillers. Based upon your goals, ask questions like: 

• What exactly can you expect in terms of results once the treatment is done? 
• Is there any downtime needed post treatment to help recovery?
• What precautions must be taken to ensure optimal outcomes? 
• What are things to avoid during the recovery phase? 
• How long will recovery take? 
• Are there any side effects to take note of? 
• How long after the treatment can I see some difference? 

What are the best anti-aging services available at Dermiq Clinic?

Dermiq Clinic is a premier skin clinic in Hyderabad that offers comprehensive anti-aging treatments to help people overcome the appearance of signs of aging. You can get traditional anti-aging treatments like skin boosters and injectables which help in enhancing the skin’s texture and elevate hydration. Advanced non-invasive treatments like anti-aging chemical peels are used to gently eliminate signs of aging and make the skin look fresh. The peel is a highly concentrated formula which helps enrich the skin, after which a hydrating serum is applied. At Dermiq, people can also benefit from the latest high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) remedy which is a revolutionary new FDA approved treatment. 

What is HIFU treatment?

The HIFU treatment is precision-based treatment used for tackling fine lines and wrinkles on the face and the neck area. The  treatment relies on the use of ultrasound, which helps in tightening the skin by deeply penetrating through multiple layers of the skin, and targeting the breakdown of the skin from the root. HIFU also helps in effortlessly lifting the skin without any invasive surgeries. It can thus effectively help in addressing concerns such as sagging skin, lines in the neck, plumping eyes, and more by tightening the skin and promoting the production of collagen.
