The Truth about Anti-Ageing Treatments in your 20s
28.03.2023
The primary goal of anti-wrinkle skincare in your 20s is to protect and preserve the skin's natural collagen and elastin, which are essential for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. This can be achieved through a combination of preventative measures such as avoiding sun damage, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and using skincare products that contain antioxidants, vitamins, and other anti-aging ingredients.
It's also essential to establish a consistent skincare routine that includes daily cleansing, moisturizing, and sun protection to keep the skin healthy and hydrated. Regular facials and exfoliation can also help to improve skin texture and boost collagen production.
By incorporating a preventative and protective approach to your skincare routine in your 20s, you can help to prevent premature signs of aging and maintain a more youthful, radiant complexion well into your 30s, 40s and beyond.

Anti-Ageing Treatments
Ultraformer
While many people associate anti-aging treatments with more mature skin, preventative care is just as important in your 20s. The Ultraformer treatment is an excellent option for those looking to prevent signs of aging deep within the layers of the skin before they even begin to appear.This non-invasive treatment uses ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin, leaving you with a more youthful, radiant complexion. By promoting collagen production in your 20s, you can help to prevent fine lines and wrinkles from forming in the first place.
Another benefit of the Ultraformer treatment is that it can be customized to address specific concerns, such as sagging skin or uneven texture. Plus, with no downtime, you can return to your daily activities immediately following the procedure. Starting preventative skincare early on can have a significant impact on the overall health and appearance of your skin in the long run. The Ultraformer treatment is an excellent option for those looking to maintain a youthful complexion and prevent signs of aging from appearing prematurely.
Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Worrying about anti-wrinkle injections in your early 20s is not necessary as it is generally recommended to wait until your late 20s at least before considering this type of treatment. This is because the skin's natural collagen production is still active and effective during this time, and most individuals in their early 20s have not yet developed significant wrinkles or fine lines.
Lisa Sullivan ‘’The need for Anti-wrinkle injections would be totally dependent on the depth of expression lines on the face. We would normally not recommend anti-wrinkle injections before the age of 28, if the lines aren’t significantly apparent when resting’’.
However, it's important to note that everyone's skin is unique, and the best time to consider anti-wrinkle injections can vary depending on individual factors such as genetics, lifestyle habits, and environmental factors.
If you are considering anti-wrinkle injections, it's always best to consult with one of our registered nurses who can assess your skin and recommend the most appropriate treatment options for your specific needs.
Dermal Filler Injectables
When it comes to dermal fillers, this is another treatment that we would use later down the line and not ideally in your early 20s to treat deep lines and fill in volume loss or hollow areas of the face. While dermal fillers are not necessary for treating facial lines in your 20s, lip enhancement may be a consideration for some individuals. The lips are an important feature of the face, and many people in their 20s may feel self-conscious about thin or asymmetrical lips.
Dermal fillers can be used to add volume and definition to the lips, creating a more youthful and fuller appearance. However, it's important to choose a qualified and experienced practitioner who can ensure that the treatment is safe and effective.
It's also worth noting that lip enhancement with dermal fillers is not a one-size-fits-all treatment. The amount and type of filler used will depend on the individual's natural lip shape and desired outcome. Our aim at the clinic is always to give our clients lips a safe, soft and subtle approach to Lip Filler to enhance natural beauty.
Therefore, a consultation with one of our registered nurses is essential to ensure that the treatment is tailored to your unique needs and goals.
