WRINKLES – THE UNINVITED GUESTS

Wrinkles, sagging, loss of firmness and reduced elasticity are all natural signs of ageing. Skin rejuvenation has become an essential need for modern women, as the decline in collagen and elastin and the changes in the tissue beneath the skin keep progressing year after year. In this article, join Luna in exploring the signs of ageing and advanced, effective solutions to improve and rejuvenate your skin.

What is skin ageing?

Skin ageing is the gradual decline in skin quality. It begins with a loss of skin density as the collagen and elastin structure beneath the skin slowly loosens, causing the skin to lose its firmness and smoothness and wrinkles to appear. Skin becomes dry and rough, with melasma, dark spots and uneven tone… A weakened skin barrier also makes the skin more vulnerable to environmental damage.

Ageing is driven by factors both inside the body and from the outside:

• Intrinsic ageing (from within): the body's natural ageing process over time, due to age or periods of hormonal change (pregnancy, menopause in women).
• Extrinsic ageing (from external influences): the effects of factors such as UV rays and environmental pollution… or diet, lifestyle, physical activity and unhealthy daily habits…

Ageing skin develops wrinkles and loses its firmness and smoothness. It becomes dry and rough, with melasma and dark spots…

The neck is where wrinkles appear earliest in the ageing process. Yet it is often forgotten in daily skincare routines, and it is also an area that is hard to hide.

Ways to improve wrinkles caused by ageing

1. Using skincare products

There are many effective ways to tackle unwanted wrinkles, including skincare products containing Retinol, Vitamin C and AHA/BHA… These actives help renew the skin, stimulate collagen production and soften wrinkles.

2. Using rejuvenation technology

Premature ageing can make you look "older than your age". That's why the demand for rejuvenation keeps growing, supported by a wide range of modern aesthetic technologies. Let Lunaria SkinLab walk you through the two most trusted rejuvenation technologies today – HIFU and RF.

RF – A World-Leading Rejuvenation Technology at Lunaria SkinLab

Advanced RF technology at Lunaria SkinLab is an ideal solution for improving wrinkles on the neck. It applies radio frequency (RF) technology on the DOULIFT Sequential BV device to stimulate collagen renewal, firm the skin and effectively reduce wrinkles without surgery.

RF (Radio Frequency) is a non-invasive method that uses high-frequency electromagnetic waves to care for and improve the skin. RF waves pass through the skin and deliver heat to the tissue in the epidermis. This thermal energy stimulates the production of new collagen fibres, while old, broken collagen fibres contract. RF technology is especially suitable for skin beginning to show signs of ageing, such as fine wrinkles or loss of elasticity – meeting the rejuvenation needs of women of all ages.

The DOULIFT Sequential BV device comes from Advance Beauty – a pioneering supplier in applying ultrasound technology to skincare, which owns patented Sequential Ultrasound technology. Lunaria's Skin Masters team trusts it for our rejuvenation treatments, helping lift and brighten areas of the face for a firm, healthy glow without any invasion. It is ideal for those who are afraid of pain or have sensitive skin.

Radio frequency (RF) technology provides comprehensive skin rejuvenation while ensuring safety and high effectiveness. Let's look at the standout benefits of the latest treatment at Lunaria SkinLab:

• Comprehensive rejuvenation by stimulating new collagen and elastin in the SMAS layer. Located beneath the skin, the SMAS is the fascial layer between the muscle and the subcutaneous fat. Because it is weak against gravity, over time this layer forms wrinkles. This is what causes the skin to sag
• Facial contouring that firms the skin, improves elasticity and reduces sagging, especially in delicate areas such as the eyes, neck and jawline.
• Non-invasive, gentle and with no downtime after treatment.
• Visible results right after the first treatment that can last up to 12 months.

HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound)

HIFU technology uses high-intensity focused ultrasound waves to improve the skin without surgery. The waves penetrate deep into the dermis and underlying structures, creating a thermal effect that stimulates collagen and elastin production. This helps repair broken bonds so the skin regains its elasticity and firmness. HIFU is usually recommended when the skin starts to lose elasticity and mild to moderate wrinkles appear – typically between the ages of 30 and 50.

However, this technology also has some drawbacks:

• Because it requires advanced equipment, HIFU is usually very expensive.
• It is not suitable for every skin type. If you have sensitive skin, you may experience mild swelling, redness or numbness in the treated area.

RF works more gradually than HIFU. However, with its attractive price and a more comfortable, pleasant experience, RF technology remains a firm favourite among Lunaria's clients.
