Targeted treatment for double chin
Deoxycholic Acid – also known as Belkyra – is an effective treatment for removing unwanted fat from the chin and jawline, resulting in a more defined lower face and profile. This non-surgical treatment has become popular for reducing submental fat, better known as double chin. Deoxycholic acid is a naturally occurring bile acid molecule that dissolves fat. When injected into the submental fat, Deoxycholic acid safely and permanently destroys fat cells. Deoxycholic acid is the first injectable treatment approved by Health Canada to permanently remove submental fat. A series of three to five treatment sessions, typically spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, are needed to achieve optimal results. Results are evident 4-6 weeks post treatment.
Neck
Did you know that neck wrinkles can actually appear before face wrinkles? This is because the skin on our neck is thinner than our face. Loss of collagen and elastin in the skin can lead to sagging, loose skin (laxity) and the formation of wrinkles. Constantly looking down at devices doesn’t help either.
With aging the neck experiences changes in skin texture, loose skin and uneven skin tone.

Enlarged Pores
Anyone who boasts you can get rid of your pores is a liar! While you can’t eliminate your pores, you can definitely minimize their appearance.
What Causes Large Pores?
Several factors contribute to enlarged pores including aging, sun damage, makeup, sweat and skincare. While aging is hard to avoid, using the right products to keep your pores clean and free of dirt or bacteria will keep your skin looking clear and smooth. Makeup, sweat and skincare are the biggest causes of clogged pores which can result in the appearance of larger looking pores.

Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Slow the visible signs of aging
As we get older our skin naturally thins, becomes less elastic and loses volume. The slow skin cell production and lack of collagen proteins causes loose, saggy skin, and more pronounced lines and wrinkles. Other active contributors to fine lines and wrinkles include sun exposure, smoking, poor sleep and repetitive facial expressions such as smiling, frowning, or squinting.
Targeted treatments to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles:

Dermal fillers – At Luminosity Studios we carry the entire line of Revanesse® dermal fillers which are designed to treat visible signs of aging.

When the right product is artfully and carefully injected into the face by an experienced Cosmetic Injector, the result can be an instant face-lift.
