“Beauty is skin-deep”, and indeed it is. The beauty of your skin gives the immediate impression of looking attractive and healthy. IntimMed will help you in achieving and maintaining just that.
The elements of attractive skin comprise optimal:
- Skin tone – evenness in the distribution of colors and pigments
- Skin texture – smoothness, tightness, small pore size
- Limiting lines and wrinkles
- Mitigation of sun damage and aging changes
The best strategy for achieving beautiful attractive skin is to optimize what we have by regenerative measures to take your skin back to a younger age, maybe even improving it, and stay there. How can we do this?
Until the last decade, we tried to make the skin look attractive by using makeup to cover the “flaws”. Skin and cosmetic science have given us ways to improve our skin more than just covering up. We at IntimMed and Dr. Michael Lau, a cosmetic surgeon, cosmetic scientist, and beauty tech inventor, will guide you into the new era of regenerative aesthetics to take your skin back to the younger years and even better.
There is no magic bullet, the advice that Dr. Lau gives to his clients is this – “The problem with the beauty tech and cosmetics products is that they tend to overclaim what each of them can do, most the time extensive yet elusive. That could not be possible. There are multiple causes to affect the skin negatively – sun damage, aging, general health, or lifestyle, how can any single treatment fix all these? We need to combine different evidence-based treatment modalities, each addressing a specific problem of the skin, to optimally make our skin more beautiful and attractive”.
To optimize each of the elements in having beautiful and attractive skin, we will address each accordingly.
Skin tone
Skin tone, the color element, is an expression of the pigment in skin cells, melanin. You can imagine that skin pigment elements and the pigmented cells would interact with light energy (suntan from sunlight for example), and indeed they do. To treat skin tone concerns – unevenness, dark spots, etc., we use light-based devices such as laser, or IPL to address those skin tone concerns effectively with no discomfort and no downtime.
Skin texture
Skin texture concerns such as roughness, laxity, large pore size, and scars can be addressed in multiple ways, thanks to the latest beauty tech that we have at IntimMed. We can rejuvenate the skin to optimize texture using a laser such as the 1540 Fractional Laser, RF energy treatment such as TempSure to tighten the skin, or using the latest regenerative technology PRP or exosomes in conjunction with microneedling or laser to bring the skin back to your younger years.
Limiting lines and wrinkles
Lines and wrinkles are formed due to gravity, aging, repeated muscle actions, and decreasing support from underlying tissues below the skin. We can use Botox aesthetics to prevent such for several months to lessen dynamic lines and wrinkles – those formed only at the moment secondary to muscle actions such as smile or frown. The lessening of these dynamic lines would prevent the development of permanent static lines from the muscle actions. The static lines can be corrected by filling in the lines or providing better underlying tissue supports using strategically placed dermal fillers.
Mitigation of sun damage and aging changes
In addition to the various treatment modalities, especially regenerative aesthetics as mentioned above, we offer several skin care treatment products, some with regenerative agents, which you can use at home on a regular basis to mitigate sun damage and aging changes. We at IntimMed would be delighted to formulate a tailored skincare regimen for you.
