What Is Juvelook?
One of the most sought-after treatments in the cosmetics world is anything that can reverse the signs of ageing. If you know anything about this, you probably already know that collagen and collagen production are key features of any anti-ageing treatment. This is because collagen is one of the main structural proteins that keep our skin looking firm and radiant.
The bad news, however, is that collagen production in the body is limited, and it eventually stops once you get older. Hence, when it comes to treatments involving the skin and attaining that youthful glow, everything takes us back to treatments that help increase collagen production.
To counter this effect, many dermatologists and specialists are developing ways to increase collagen production in the body without harmful side effects. Juvelook is one of these treatments, originating from Korea, which is designed to be a minimally invasive procedure that can give you this result and work as a collagen baking treatment.
What Does It Do Exactly?
Juvelook is considered to be a hybrid filler which consists of Hyaluronic Acid and Poly D-Lactic Acid (PDLA). These are both prevalent substances that are found in many skin boosters.
Hyaluronic acid fillers are known for their immediate filling effect, which Juvelook also provides. The good thing about Juvelook treatment is that, unlike non-hybrid Hyaluronic acid treatment procedures, your face does not feel surgically lifted, giving you a puffy look. PDLA allows your skin to produce collagen, giving you a more natural youthful appearance.
In this way, the effects of Juvelook are much more long-lasting, all thanks to PDLA, which helps in the long-term stimulation of collagen production.
What Happens During A Juvelook Treatment?
When you undergo a Juvelook treatment, the administration begins by introducing PDLA into the dermis layer of the skin. This is done to increase the production of collagen in the body. Once this is injected into the skin via micro needles, it stays under the deep layer of the skin for anywhere from 6 to 12 months.
When it disappears, it leaves strands of collagen, which helps your skin appear poreless, become firm and increase its elasticity.
Who can benefit from Juvelook treatment?
This treatment is recommended for people who are over the age of 30-35. You can still undergo this procedure before you reach this age, but the effects of this treatment are far more prominent in those over 35.
When will you start seeing the results?
As with most invasive procedures, you can see changes in your skin from the first session. However, it is recommended that you take at least 3-4 sessions for a longer-lasting effect. However, these sessions should not be back to back. You can take gaps of 6-8 weeks between each session.
How long does the result last?
The results of undergoing a Juvelook treatment last you at least 24 months.
How long does one session last?
Typically, one session lasts for about 30 minutes only
What can I expect during and after the treatment?
Since it is a minimally invasive treatment, you might face mild discomfort during the procedure. Still, you can request topical anaesthesia if you do not want to feel the needles piercing your skin. Once the treatment is over, you might feel some swelling in some parts of the face, but it will eventually fade.
