Radiofrequency treatments – A secret to look younger

Although there are a number of beauty treatments publiclyavailable in plastic surgeon’s office, they are still a secret for the majority of people. One of these open secrets is radiofrequency treatments.

For me, the best way to look younger is by providing the nutrition and the physical activity to our body, it desperately needs. However, a recent incident pointed out that there is some additional help available by the latest technology to look surprisingly younger. I just happened to meet a plastic surgeon few weeks back. Incidentally, his brother accompanied him. At first glance, I thought that his brother would be around 10 years older than him. During the discussion, I was startled to know that his brother was actually 10 years younger than the surgeon. I would not have been surprised if the plastic surgeonhad been very active physically – which he was not. At that moment, I decided to uncover his secret.

I did a lot of research about cosmetic surgery procedures. Some nonsurgical procedures include chemical peels, laser skin rejuvenation, and radiofrequency treatments while surgical facelift is always an option to remove sagging skin. According to my research, he was not a candidate of surgical facelift, so I dropped this possibility right away. 

A facelift is suitable for extreme sagging of skin. For wrinkles and mild sagging, other nonsurgical options are more suitable.

Chemical peels are good at peeling off the outer layer of skin. However, they work from outside, and their effects remain on the outer layers of the skin only. Laser skin rejuvenation works wonders by peeling off outer layer of skin and penetrating deeper to stimulate collagen. This stimulation tightens skin. However, you do not need skin peeling if your skin is already smooth, have no pigmentation, sunburns, or wrinkles.

Skin peeling is good option to remove blemishes, pigmentation, fine lines, and sunburn, but it has a downtime associated with it.

If you don’t want to peel off the outer layer of skin, but want to stimulate collagen to have a tight and youthful skin, radiofrequency treatment is the one that does exactly the same. 

Radiofrequency waves do not affect the outer layer of your skin. They penetrate deeper and heat dermal and subcutaneous skin layers. The heat causes the collagen to contract and produce immediate tightening of the treated area. This heat also stimulates collagen to get stronger in the long-term. Unlike skin peeling, this treatment does not have any downtime at all.

If you want to tighten your skin without peeling off the outer layer, radiofrequency is a suitable treatment for you with no downtime. 

Don’t be startled when you see someone, especially celebrities, who look 10 or even 20 years younger than their age. You know their secret now! You can also use this treatment to look way younger than your age. And if you want to defy your age like celebrities, combine radiofrequency skin tightening with a healthy diet and adequate physical activity.

Is the cost of laser hair removal in Dubai worth it?

Laser hair removal can be really appealing to the people who spend hours per week on getting rid of unwanted hair! We all have at least one place on our body where we don’t want any hair. We use threading, tweezing, and waxing to get rid of those unwanted hair. Almost every one of us will love to remove these hairs form our body and their worry from our mind, permanently. The only thing standing between unwanted hair and their permanent removal is the cost of laser hair removal.

Is the cost of laser hair removal worth it?

For the people with a little mathematics background--it is. Let’s compare full leg laser and full leg wax. A full leg laser hair removal in Dubai costs about Dhs2000 per session, and at average you need four sessions to achieve your desired results. This translates into four times 2000, which is Dhs8000. Once you’ve got your desired results, you’re done!

On the other hand, full leg wax in Dubai costs about Dhs120; at average, you will need waxing after every four weeks. Please note that this price is an average and may vary with every waxing facility. Similarly, getting waxed every four weeks is not a hard-and-fast rule, and every individual needs a different schedule for waxing, but this can be regarded as a fair average. Coming back to our calculations, you’ll need about 13 waxing sessions per year. 13 times 120 becomes Dhs1560. At this rate, you will spend Dhs8000 in five years and one month (to be precise). After five years and one month, laser hair removal break-evens the cost of waxing; you’ll be hair free without any cost for the rest of your life.

Of course, we are not taking into account the time you have to spend on waxing every four weeks. So, unless you enjoy the pampering you receive during waxing at your favorite beauty salon, you will appreciate the cost and time saving offered by laser hair removal.

Which factors affect the cost of laser hair removal?

To be simple, the cost of hair removal by lasers depends on the number of sessions you require to achieve your desired results. But the number of session required depend on some other factors like the color of your skin, the color of your hair, and the choice of laser type, besides others.

My personal tip for you! If you want to be worry free while still need a reason to go to your favorite beauty parlor and get pampered, have laser hair removal on the parts which are visible in your routine dress. You will not get late or miss a party because you have to wax them. For body parts hidden in your dress, you can still go on with waxing--for now.
