Skin Ageing Treatments
Fade Age Spots, Fine Lines and Wrinkles with Anti-Ageing Prescription Skincare
At City Skin Clinic, we designed our virtual clinic skincare service to be your hub for cutting-edge anti-ageing treatments designed. Our innovative skincare solutions focus on addressing the cardinal signs of skin ageing. We focus on wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, loss of elasticity, melasma, age spots, and skin pigmentation.
Skin ageing is complex but treating it doesn’t have to be. Most people find it difficult to maintain skin elasticity and combat the appearance of wrinkles on the face. Whether you’re looking to soften forehead wrinkles, reduce frown lines, or restore radiance to sun damaged skin, we can help! We offer a range of proven anti-ageing prescription treatments to rejuvenate and refresh your skin.
Understanding Skin Ageing
Skin ageing is a natural process that is caused by intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Intrinsic skin ageing is inevitable and is governed by our genetic makeup. It results in a gradual loss of skin elasticity and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Extrinsic ageing, on the other hand, is influenced by environmental factors and lifestyle habits such as sun exposure, smoking, poor diet, and stress. All of these accelerate skin ageing and contribute to issues like sun damage, melasma, age spots, and skin pigmentation.
Optimal skincare for ageing skin involves ingredients that not only tackle existing signs of ageing but also help to prevent future damage. These include retinoids (like Tretinoin) for their collagen-boosting and cell turnover properties, antioxidants (like Vitamin C) to fight off free radicals and environmental damage, and alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) for their exfoliating capabilities that improve skin texture and tone.
Anti-Ageing Prescription Skincare
We proudly offer Obagi skincare, a leader in the skincare industry, known for its transformative effects on ageing skin. Obagi’s prescription products penetrate beneath the skin surface to revitalise and rejuvenate at a cellular level.
Tretinoin
Obagi Tretinoin cream (or gel) is the most critical component in any anti-wrinkle and photo-ageing treatment plan. Tretinoin is a powerful prescription retinoid that is 20x more powerful than retinol. It increases skin cell turnover, stimulates collagen production and repairs sun damage on the face. This powerful anti-wrinkle cream is normally used alone to treat skin ageing and mild sun spots and hyperpigementation. You can boost its effects with Vitamin C and exfoliating acids to brighten the skin even more.
Hydroquinone
If you are suffering from moderate to severe sun damage induced hyperpigmentation, then you may want to consider using hydroquinone alongside Tretinoin for a limited period. This will augment the dark spot fading effects of Tretinoin for a highly effective anti-ageing skincare routine. This combination will combat the signs of past sun-damage and you can then maintain the results with just Tretinoin alone. We offer hydroquinone as separate products or as part of the Obagi skin systems:
Obagi hydroquinone (Clear or Blender): these standalone products contain 4% hydroquinone but work on slightly different layers of the skin. You can use Clear both day and night to inhibit melanin production. Obagi Blender is only used at night and is mixed with Tretinoin. Your doctor will advise which of these products is best for you or if you have extensive hyperpigmentation then you might need both.
Nu-Derm System: this is an all-in-one solution for skin ageing and is often referred to as “the skin transformation system”. The Nu-Derm system fades age spots and hyperpigmentation on the face. It brighten as well as even out the complexion. Nu-Derm also resurfaces the skin and improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Better still, when used in conjunction with Obagi Tretinoin cream, it’s arguably the most effective topical treatment for wrinkles on the face as well as other signs of photo-damage and skin ageing. This kit is best for those with moderate to severe signs of skin ageing age spots and melasma.
Obagi-C System: infused with vitamin C, the Obagi-C system brightens, clarifies, and smooths your skin. Ideal for those struggling with mild to moderate age spots and pigmentation. This system also contains 4% hydroquinone and works brilliantly with Tretinoin.
Add-On Treatments
To enhance your anti-ageing results, we offer a range of add-on products, perfect for further addressing specific skin concerns. Our most popular add-ons include:
Elastiderm eye cream: Say goodbye to saggy skin and hello to elasticity with Obagi Elastiderm. This cream will help your skin bounce back, restoring elasticity, and reducing visible fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the eyes.
Professional C-Serum: Boost your skin’s health and glow with Obagi Professional C-Serum. Loaded with antioxidants, this serum fights against environmental damage, brightens your complexion, and provides superior hydration.
Exfoderm acid exfoliant: Obagi Exfoderm exfoliate the top layer of your skin. They remove dull and old skin to reveal new skin cells for a brighter and smoother complexion. The are two different formulations to suit different skin sensitivities.
