7 Non Surgical Treatments to Give Your Face a Lift

If your complexion is looking a bit dull and tired after the winter, get ready for summer with a non surgical facial treatment.

At Ocean Clinic Marbella's Medical Spa, we offer a range of treatments that can help improve skin tone and luminosity, and minimise the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Read on to discover the unique benefits of each one...

LPG Endermologie

LPG Endermologie is like a workout for your face. The treatment uses micro-pulsations over the entire surface of the face and neck, gently pinching the skin in order to jump-start circulation.

This oxygenates the tissues, exfoliates the skin and reactivates the production of essential support fibers. Over a course of treatments, research demonstrates impressive uplift in collagen, elastin (+46%*), and hyaluronic acid (+80%*), leading to stronger and firmer skin (+70%*). The face is redrawn with cleaner, more youthful contours.

Even after the first session, skin is softer and the complexion is twice as radiant*. Since LPG Endermologie is 100% natural, pain-free and requires no down time, it’s the perfect way to get instantly healthy-looking skin before a party or event.

Chemical Peel

We offer three types of facial peels; superficial, medium and deep. The first two offer immediate skin brightening without downtime, while a deep peel gives significant results but requires sedation and a longer recovery.

Whichever peel depth you choose, the treatment works in the same way - a chemical solution is applied to break down layers of skin. A superficial, tri-acid peel will remove the top layer of skin, which improves the appearance of fine lines and blemishes, and boosts radiancy. The effects will last for several weeks.

For longer lasting results, a deep, phenol peel strips away more layers of skin, tackling deeper wrinkles, scars, pigmentation and some skin growths. The benefits can be seen for up to 10 years.

Restylane Skinboosters

Restylane Skinboosters plump and hydrate the skin through tiny superficial injections of hyaluronic acid filler directly into the epidermis and mesoderm (middle layer of the skin).

Once injected, the hyaluronic acid molecules start to swell with water, absorbing up to 200 times their weight. This has a noticeable plumping effect, filling out superficial lines and wrinkles, improving skin tone and lifting sagging skin.

Meanwhile, replacing moisture in the skin, gives the visage back its luminosity. What’s more, Restylane Skinboosters help to kick-start collagen production giving long term, anti-aging benefits. Restylane Skinboosters are administered over a course of three treatments, each approximately four weeks apart.

Venus Viva

Venus Viva offers effective skin resurfacing without the need for lasers and the associated downtime. The device uses nanofractional radiofrequency to heat the cells below the surface of the skin and stimulate the body’s natural collagen production.

With just a few treatments you can see a visible reduction in acne scars, age spots, enlarged pores and other blemishes, as well as significant improvement in the redness and lumps associated with rosacea.

Used with the DiamondPolar applicator, Venus Viva can target lines and wrinkles and smaller areas, such as around the eyes and along the jowls. The treatment is highly customisable and can be tailored to each patient’s individual needs. In trials, patients have given this treatment a rating of 97% for overall improvement to the skin.

Venus Legacy

Venus Legacy is designed to tighten the skin of the face and neck, providing an uplifted and contoured effect. The treatment combines multi-polar radiofrequency and pulsed electromagnetic fields to stimulate the tissue deep down.

It works by heating the tissue to trigger both the tightening of existing collagen and production of new collagen, while encouraging lymphatic drainage and releasing trapped fluid. This helps to reduce under-eye bags.

Just a few treatments with Venus Legacy can significantly tighten lax skin around the cheeks, jowls and neck to give patients a firmer, more youthful appearance. It also helps minimises the appearance of lines around the eyes, mouth and forehead.

PRP Therapy

PRP therapy (also known as a “vampire facial”) uses a patient’s own blood to rejuvenate the skin. Blood is spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelets before being injected into the superficial layers of the face.

Platelets contain proteins called growth factors, which stimulate the natural healing process and encourage the production of collagen. The growth factor concentration in PRP can be three to five times greater than would usually be present in the blood.

PRP therapy facilitates the repair of damaged skin - this includes sun damage, acne scarring and natural aging, while enhancing overall skin texture, tone and luminosity. Facial skin renewal is continual for about three months after the procedure, with results lasting up to 18 months.

Dermapen

Dermapen is the world’s first microneedling pen. Equipped with 12 tiny needles to create micro injuries to the inner and outer layers of facial skin, it triggers the body’s healing process. This leads to natural rejuvenation of the skin.

Dermapen can be used to treat fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, burns, scars and sun damage. By encouraging the production of new collagen and elastin, this treatment improves the skin tone and texture, and gives you plumper and smoother skin.

Best results are seen over a period of four to six treatments. Skin continues to benefit following treatment thanks to the micro-skin channels that the Dermapen creates. These can carry up to 80% more topical nutrients deep into the skin, meaning facial serums become much more effective.
