Changes in the skin and face with age
Wrinkles, loss of volume, sagging, pigmentation or localised fat: the changes we see in the mirror have different causes and call for different answers. We start by identifying what concerns you and why it appears, and from there the doctor proposes the plan they consider suitable.
Treatments we offer
Aesthetic medicine
Aesthetic medicine is the medical practice concerned with physical appearance through outpatient procedures carried out in the consulting room. Unlike plastic surgery, it requires neither general anaesthesia nor a hospital stay. It covers the treatment of wrinkles, volume loss, skin quality, localised fat and facial harmony.
A global approach
Facial ageing is not only about wrinkles: there is also volume loss in the cheeks and temples, descent of the tissues and changes in skin texture. That is why the doctor looks at the whole face and may combine treatments depending on each case.
Treatment families
The main ones are the treatment of expression lines, hyaluronic acid for volume loss, biostimulators for skin quality, energy-based technologies (laser, focused ultrasound, radiofrequency) for texture and laxity, and body treatments for localised fat and cellulite.
The medical consultation as the starting point
Every treatment starts with an individual medical assessment: medical history, examination, goals and expectations. With that information the doctor proposes a tailored plan, or advises against treatment when it is not indicated.
Risks and follow-up
Most procedures are carried out in the consulting room and last between 20 and 60 minutes. Each one has its possible side effects, from redness or mild bruising to less frequent complications, which the doctor explains before the informed consent is signed.
