How to Reverse Aging 

There are many ways to prevent and mitigate undesirable effects of aging, but what if we want to diminish signs of aging that have already appeared? Taking action in one’s 20s and 30s to promote skin health is crucial for preventing early- or over- aging. However, fine lines and wrinkles typically emerge as we approach our 40s and above. At this point we need to take a different approach to diminish, delay, or even reverse effects of aging. Although taking preventative measures and maintaining foundations for health are still vital, reversing the manifestations of aging requires a more specialized approach utilizing services that work to up-regulate healing and tissue integrity. LIVV is proud to offer several anti-aging and regenerative therapies, here are our top 2:  

Morpheus

Also known as the non-surgical facelift, Morpheus is a safe, effective, and minimally invasive therapy that combines micro-needling and radio frequency (RF) to resurface and remodel the skin. This procedure penetrates deep into the skin causing micro injuries and heating of tissue to stimulate the body’s own ability to heal, regenerate, and produce collagen. It can be used to tighten loose skin, contour fatty areas of the body, improve skin texture, lessen fine lines and wrinkles, diminish the appearance of stretch marks, scarring, and cellulite, reduce the size of large pores, and decrease sweating. Commonly treated areas include the face, under eyes, chest, stomach, underarms, and any area with scars. PRP (platelet rich plasma) and exosome therapies can be added on to this procedure to maximize the results.

Forma

Also known as the lunch-time facial, Forma is a safe, effective, and minimally invasive therapy that utilizes radio frequency to tighten and smooth the skin. This procedure introduces uniform energy waves into the skin to heat up the deep layers to stimulate the body’s own ability to strengthen the skin layers and produce collagen. It can be used to tighten sagging skin and lessen fine lines and wrinkles. For maximum results, we recommend 3 treatments with 1 week in between each treatment. The sessions are only 30-60 minutes, which makes it a perfect self-care activity during your lunch break – walking back into work with a newfound glow! Since results are seen quickly after treatments, it is commonly done before big events!

The Morpheus and Forma can be used in conjunction with one another if needed. Both of these procedures are FDA approved and have scientific and clinical evidence to support their efficacy. Neither of them have serious side effects and they do not require any down time. Multiple treatments are often necessary but the results are well worth it and often long-lasting. Lastly, they can be used for any and all skin types!
