Whether it’s getting rid of a double chin, loose skin or facial contouring and definition that you’re striving for, Luminosity Studios has treatments that can help.

Dermal filler can add volume, structure and support in the chin and jawline to create a more defined and sculpted look. Dermal filler is used to shape the chin, augment the jaw and tighten the surrounding skin area. At Luminosity Studios we carry the entire line of Revanesse® dermal fillers.

These dermal fillers will achieve the following:
  • Reduce the effects of age-related volume loss in the lower face
  • Create a more oval-looking jawline
  • Reduce the appearance of jowls
  • Contour the jawline, giving it a sharper appearance
  • Balance an asymmetrical jawline
  • Strengthen or add proportion to the chin
  • Provide a strong foundation and frame for the face 

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.

Hair Loss / Hair Thinning

Hair loss and thinning can be embarrassing and distressing for many of us, leaving us feeling self-conscious about our appearance. Aging, genetics and menopause are all contributing factors.

Targeted treatment for hair loss and thinning
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections are an excellent and affordable treatment for both men and women who are experiencing hair thinning and hair loss. PRP for hair loss is a system whereby a small amount of blood is drawn and spun through a centrifuge for several minutes to generate a very high concentration of platelets. That platelet-rich portion of blood is separated and injected back into the vascular layer of your scalp, allowing your body’s own growth factors and stem cells to work together to increase blood supply and stimulation to the hair follicle, restoring fuller, thicker hair.
