Skin Texture & Elasticity Brisbane

As we age, we naturally experience changes in the texture and elasticity of our skin caused by the gradual loss of collagen and elastin, exposure to the sun and other lifestyle factors. For those wishing to address these changes which occur as we age, Inigo Cosmetic offers consultations with our nurses, doctors and dermal clinicians.

A Cosmetic Consultation at Inigo in Brisbane will give you the opportunity to discuss treatment options aimed at increasing collagen and elastin production and hydrating the skin, with the goal of addressing these visible signs of ageing skin on the face, neck, décolletage, hands, knees, elbows and stomach.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I prepare for cosmetic medicine treatment?

Before your treatment, we recommend avoiding alcohol for at least 24 hours and avoiding blood-thinning medications and supplements for at least seven days. This will help to prevent bruising and excessive bleeding during and after your treatment.

How long will my results last?

The persistence of cosmetic medicine results depends on the type of treatment you decide to undergo, as well as your individual biology. Generally however for cosmetic treatments targeting skin texture and hydration, results are noticeable for about six months after the last treatment.

Can I pair other skin treatments with cosmetic treaments?

Some patients may wish to discuss combining multiple treatments for targeting skin texture, wrinkles, volume loss and hydration, as well as facial treatments such as chemical peels and skin needling. During your consultation your practitioner will be able to discuss which treatments may be complementary and create a tailored multi-modality treament plan to best address your goals.
