The 7 Top Cosmetic Treatments for 2018
1. Tailor-made Combination Treatments
This year, the focus will be less on brand names for general results and more on treatments that are creatively combined with others to deliver one-of-a-kind results. However, such custom cosmetic procedures cannot be skillfully administered by just any cosmetic surgeon because of the skill, experience, and top-notch training necessary to safely and effectively achieve the desired results.
For example, a combination of laser therapy and Kybella can deliver amazing fat reduction and body contouring results. Under the expert administration of a surgeon like Dr. Gold, less Kybella is needed when combined with laser therapy.
Yet, patients marvel at the superior results of their tailor-made treatment.
2. Treatments to Prevent, Not Simply to Correct
It used to be that patients seeking neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin were in their 40s and above, and their goal was to correct the appearance of dynamic wrinkles such as smile lines around the mouth and frown lines on the forehead.
That’s not so much the case anymore.
These days, because neuromodulators have been found to help prevent facial lines and creases before they even form, patients are attempting to stave off the appearance of these wrinkles. This means patients seeking Botox, Dysport, Xeomin are now in their 20s and 30s – and this trend is not expected to slow in 2018.
3. Continued Growth of Nonsurgical and Other Non-invasive Technologies
Non-invasive, non-surgical trends have become big in recent years – and they will continue to grow because of technology and the demand by patients for less surgery. This is particularly true for patients who want to rejuvenate their skin as well as lift, tighten, and contour various areas of the body.
At Gold Skin Care Center, Dr. Gold and his staff of skin care experts provide a variety of non-surgical energy-based body sculpting treatments that melt fat, tighten the skin, reduce wrinkles, and stimulate collagen production. Among the devices offered include:
- UltraShape Power (fat reduction using ultrasound)
- ThermiTight (skin tightening using radiofrequency energy)
- CoolSculpting (fat reduction using cryolipolysis, or “fat-freezing”)
- VelaShape III (cellulite reduction using infrared, radiofrequency, and vacuum)
- Ultherapy (collagen production using focused ultrasound)
4. Botox Microtreatments
In this case, tiny doses, or microdoses, of Botox are injected only superficially in the skin’s dermal layer and in smaller quantities. It’s been shown that this version of Botox treatment has the following effects:
- Smoother skin
- Reduced pore size
- Less oil production
- More collagen production
Popular in Europe already, Botox microtreatments tend to have a longer-lasting effect.
5. Better Abs with Less Gym Time
Patients may be spending less time in the gym in 2018, yet could have more defined better-looking abs.
At Gold Skin Care Center, it’s referred to as SmartLipo because we use a very tiny cannula to deliver laser energy precisely and directly into the fat cells. This destroys the fat and has the added effect of shrinking the skin for a much tighter look.
To get the six-pack abs that so many patients desire, Dr. Gold and his expert staff do additional shaping around the abdominal muscles to sculpt the body more precisely – without hours of laboring through hundreds of crunches.
6. Long-lasting Threads
Dissolvable threads and sutures have improved in recent years, and procedures based on these biocompatible sutures, such as Silhouette InstaLift, could pick up steam in 2018.
Silhouette InstaLift is a simple procedure taking less than an hour, yet delivering effects that can last up to two years. The treatment lifts the skin from deep to re-contour the face and helps achieve a more youthful appearance. As the sutures are absorbed by the body, collagen production is stimulated for fresher-looking, more rejuvenated skin.
7. Face It – More Focus on the Body
Although many patients will continue to want treatments for the face, there will be more focus on treatments for the body, like the arms, hands, legs, and back. These areas are ideal for radiofrequency energy treatments like Sculptra, which helps tighten skin and contour specific areas of the body, allowing patients to feel more confident, for example, wearing tops that expose their arms.
Another skin care treatment effective for non-facial wrinkles is Radiesse, which Dr. Gold and staff administer to the back side of the hand for smoother, younger-looking hands.
