Mr. Chan's Clinic

Looking aged or older isn’t always about all aspects of the face. It can seem like that but, really, it’s about specific areas. Your cheeks may retain a certain youthful plumpness, or you may still have good skin, but deep lines around the eyes or furrows across the forehead can give the impression of a much older face. It’s the combination of various elements that make a face look older, but the flip side to this is that by treating certain areas, the whole appearance can be refreshed and revitalised.

While ageing is an inevitable fact of life, it is a cause of concern for many people and can have an effect on self-esteem and confidence. I see it all the time in my clinic: people who are concerned with lines and wrinkles, or a change in skin tone and texture brought on by advancing years. No matter what stage you feel you’re at, there is much that can be done to tackle these common issues.

While most people these days know that there are treatments and procedures out there that can help turn back the clock to fight the signs of ageing, or at least slow its effects, they may not fully appreciate just how many options there are.

It has been around for a number of years now and the popularity of Botox shows no signs of abating. When carried out properly, Botox treatments can be a very effective way of addressing a number of concerns and can give great, natural-looking results. However, there is a lot of misinformation out there about the product itself, its safe usage and effects, so it might be a good idea to outline what you need to know about the treatment.

Aging is a fact of life, and there’s not much we can do about getting older, but there is quite a bit we can do about how that looks. You can read about some of the simple steps that can help keep your complexion looking youthful here, and there are also a number of cosmetic treatments designed to address the common concerns and issues that can pop up as we get older. Things like loss of firmness, sagging, lines and wrinkles can all give the face an older appearance.
