The Collagen Lift treatment is most effective when used alongside a healthy lifestyle. Staying hydrated, consuming a healthy diet and engaging in regular, moderate exercise is the ideal way for your clients to achieve the best results. You can also maximise client results with the SkinBase Collagen Lift Ultimate protocol. Combining the technologies of Collagen Lift with the SkinBase Microdermabrasion works in multiple ways for your clients skin to enhance results.
WHAT FACTORS AFFECT COLLAGEN LIFT RESULTS?
Age, genetics and lifestyle each play a key role in the results you can achieve for your client. After collagen production reaches optimum levels in the early 20s, it begins to decline at around 1% a year. Genetics can impact how significantly signs of ageing and skin concerns appear on your clients skin, while detrimental lifestyle choices can speed up the process. Though you cannot have an impact on your clients age or genetics, you can advise on healthy lifestyle choices to maximise results.
MAXIMISING COLLAGEN LIFT RESULTS
Encouraging your clients to take steps to support the collagen synthesis process is the best way to maximise results. Collagen Lift is not a “quick fix” and clients should be invested in the whole process to achieve their skin goals.
HYDRATION
During the treatment course and beyond, clients should drink plenty of water. Hydrated tissues conduct radio-frequency energy better, allowing the client to better withstand the heat so the energy can penetrate deep enough. Post-treatment, good hydration assists the lymphatic drainage process, so toxins are removed from the body. As the lymph is made of up to 96% water, dehydration can cause a build up of toxins in the body, resulting in inflammation.
HEALTHY DIET
An unbalanced diet can contribute to premature skin ageing, and affect the results seen from a course of Collagen Lift - particularly if the treatment is done on the body. A diet full of processed foods and sugar can particularly impact the way the skin ages. Processed foods can shorten the length of DNA telomeres, making skin cells more vulnerable to ageing. Sugary foods can be detrimental to the skin due to a process called glycation. Sugar molecules attach themselves to proteins within the skin - such as collagen and elastin - forming advanced glycation end products. Glycated collagen fibres lose their ability to regenerate, and the damage is irreversible. When having a course of Collagen Lift treatments, it is important to eat a healthy, balanced diet so the new fibres can lift, tighten and firm the skin.
CONSISTENT EXERCISE
Along with hydration, moderate exercise also helps to stimulate the lymphatic drainage and the circulatory systems. This allows waste products to be removed properly, while passing nutrients and oxygen to the tissues that need it. A lack of exercise can cause stagnation, where waste products remain in the body and oxygen and nutrients are not distributed properly. This can impact the results achieved with the Collagen Lift treatment.
COLLAGEN LIFT ULTIMATE
Collagen Lift Ultimate is a results driven treatment that resurfaces and sculpts the skin together in one session to maximise client results. More advanced than either treatment alone, allowing transformational results for your clients. By combining the technologies of Microdermabrasion and Collagen Lift, the treatment works in multiple ways for your clients' skin.
First, during the Microdermabrasion, ultra fine crystals will resurface the skin, before the Collagen Lift provides a deep lifting, rejuvenating action to reveal more sculpted, youthful skin.
