Prejuvenation at the G Spa

Most anti-aging products focus on protecting against ultraviolet rays of the sun, soaking up damaging free radicals, and stimulating collagen formation. Collagen is the major protein backbone of the skin that gives it structure, resilience and ultimately helps plump up the skin and smooth out wrinkles. Retinoids are the most effective of the topical agents available for stimulating collagen; they also alter the way skin grows, diminishing photodamage. In adults, it makes sense to start using effective topical agents at the first signs of photoaging, which is often in the 20’s.

The easiest, most effective, and most inexpensive anti-aging regimen anyone can use is one that provides protection from the sun. Regular use of sunscreens will not only protect your skin from skin cancer but will also help prevent fine wrinkles, sun-induced brown spots, and the overall loss of collagen that lead to visible signs of skin aging. To get the most from your sunscreen, consider a medical grade product from the G Spa!

t is not uncommon to see patients even in their early 20s with deep and prominent forehead wrinkles and frown lines. The injection of neuromodulators relaxes the muscles that form horizontal forehead lines and vertical frown lines that often make people look upset or angry. Additionally, neuromodulators can be used around the eyes and eyebrows to help shape, open and brighten the eyes. A good time to start is often in the late 20s to early 30s. A touch or sprinkle of Botox will not make you look “frozen,” but will prevent deeply etched lines that may never go away!

Age-related volume loss can begin as early as the 30s and judicious use of fillers can help to prevent loss of elasticity and maintain your youthful appearance. Learn more about fillers offered at the G Spa.

Procedures that take away sun damage like stubborn brown spots and fine wrinkles can also stimulate the formation of new collagen. Our state of the art laser treatments, including Carbon Laser Peel, CO2 Lite, and PicoLite allow patients to erase sun damage and improve skin texture with minimal downtime. Patients can benefit from these treatments starting in their 20s as the skin begins to show signs of early sun damage.

The use of radiofrequency skin tightening procedures available at the G Spa, including Potenza, Cynoglow, Tempsure/Flexsure, and Vivace, can help even younger patients achieve visible skin tightening and induce preventative production of collagen. By heating the skin in a deep and uniform fashion, these technologies enhance the appearance of eyes, cheeks, jawline, and upper neck.  

After age 30 we begin to lose 3-5% of our muscle mass per decade. Even if you are working out at the gym, you can keep your “core to floor” muscles in shape with our EmToning Package. This includes one  30 minute session of Emsculpt Neo for your abdominal muscles, one 30 minute session of Emsculpt Neo for your buttocks, and one session of Emsella for your pelvic floor, to treat/prevent incontinence and enhance your sexual functioning. Even if you are working out at the gym, or doing Kegel exercises, you cannot achieve the “supra maximal” contractions achieved by HIFEM technology.

Don’t forget to tone your face!  Our facial muscles also lose collagen, elastin and muscle strength as we age. Keep your existing tone and prevent the need to even think about a face lift by doing one EMFACE treatment per year.  This is like face yoga on steroids to strengthen your upper cheek muscles, resulting in  increased tone and slight volume, better definition of the jaw line, and also uses radio frequency to generate collagen and elastin. Only twenty minutes and no pain or needles to a toned, youthful face.
