Anti-Ageing Secrets: 8-Point Facelift, Injectables, Exilis & Microneedling

While ageing is an inevitability, no one ages in exactly the same way. Some people are lucky, keeping their youthful looks and remaining line-free into their middle years, while others might show signs of ageing very early.

No matter who you are and at what stage of life, tackling the signs of ageing can be a way to take control and boost your self-confidence. And with massive advancements in the aesthetics world on your side, the availability of anti-ageing treatments is vast.

We round up the most effective anti-ageing treatments that can be your confidence-boosting secret…

8-Point Facelift

The 8-Point Facelift is a non-invasive treatment designed to rejuvenate your face. It uses longer-lasting dermal fillers at 8 specific points on your face to provide a more youthful-looking appearance. 

The goal of this treatment is to replenish lost volume whilst achieving a flattering lift across your entire face. 

The 8-Point Facelift treats the following areas:

• Under Eye Area – Dermal fillers plump those dark circles under the eyes to smooth the whole area, resulting in a refreshed and rested look.
• Nasolabial Folds – These nose-to-mouth lines become deeper and more prominent as you age and can make you look much older. Fillers will plump this area to smooth lines and wrinkles.
• Upper Cheeks – Dermal fillers here will replenish lost volume, tighten your skin, and lift the rest of your face.

• Cheeks – Adding volume to this area will give you a peachy, youthful look.

• Corners of Mouth – Not to be confused with lip enhancements, the 8-Point Facelift is designed to lift a sad mouth.

• Jowl – Dermal fillers will help contour and tighten loose skin in this area.
• Jaw Line – Lifting your jawline with an 8-Point Facelift gives you a more defined profile.

Each treated area helps restore plumpness, smooth out lines, and subtly reposition sagging skin, leaving your face looking healthy and radiant. 

Fillers contain hyaluronic acid, which increases your skin’s moisture retention whilst stimulating your body’s natural collagen production.

The transformation is instant, and although more subtle than a surgical facelift, the results are still very noticeable. 

However, the changes from an 8-Point Facelift are not permanent, so if you are happy with how it looks, you will need to repeat the procedure after about 18 months.

Injectables

Alongside the 8-Point Facelift, anti-ageing injectables are one of the most popular anti-ageing treatments, with the most requested injectable being Botox. 

Injectables are particularly effective in treating your forehead, crow’s feet and glabella (deep frown lines)

While popular and effective, injectables aren’t for everyone. Botox can make natural facial expressions difficult after treatment, thanks to the nerve-blocking aspect of the injections. 

The effects of injectables will last between 12-18 months, so if you love the results, you will need top-ups to maintain your look.

Exilis

Exilis Skin Tightening uses radio frequency, emitted through an FDA-approved device, to gently heat the dermis (the tough middle layer of skin in your body.) The procedure stimulates new collagen growth deep within the dermal layer – it’s collagen that stops your skin from sagging.

By stimulating collagen, you improve skin elasticity and plump out areas that need it to reduce lines and give you refreshed, youthful-looking skin.

This procedure is not exclusively for your face either; it can be used to contour your entire body too. It reduces stubborn pockets of fat and tightens your skin so you’re left with a sleek physique. The heat from the specialist wand causes the fat cells in targeted areas to shrink and eventually die off, which leads to a reduction in overall fat volume.

Some of the areas that Exilis Skin Tightening can help with are:

• Cheeks
• Jowls
• Neck
• Decolletage
• Stomach
• Inner and outer thighs
• Upper arms (bingo wings)
• Back
• Knees

The effects of this treatment can last for up to 2 years.

Microneedling

Microneedling naturally stimulates your own production of collagen. 

This treatment involves making a series of controlled injuries by pricking your skin with tiny medical-grade, sterilised needles. These small wounds cause your body to increase its production of collagen and elastin. 

Collagen and elastin are needed to regenerate and repair your skin naturally and safely, often resulting in smoother, brighter, and healthier-looking skin.

Microneedling is best for treating:

• Deep forehead furrows 
• Acne scarring
• Large pores
• Skin texture
• Fine lines and wrinkles

At Elite Aesthetics, we recommend that you undergo a series of 3 treatments, approximately 6 weeks apart, to ensure optimal results. When treating acne scars and other skin scarring, it is often necessary to extend your treatment plan by up to 5 or 6 treatments.

Results can last between 3 and 6 months, depending on the areas you are targeting.

All these treatments and more can help you regain your youthful glow. Whether you’re considering 8-Point Facelift, Exilis, or another of our treatments, like chemical peels, we’re here to advise you.
