Aging gracefully

Not everyone ages gracefully. At age 40, skin may need tightening, reduction of fine lines, acne scars, and wrinkles.

“As you age, your skin’s collagen and elastin simply break down faster than your body can rebuild them. The slowed remodeling of these skin-tightening proteins causes your skin to thin, droop and lose elasticity—which often leads to wrinkles, furrows and fine lines,” explains Dr. Olga Reyes Roque, resident doctor of YSA Skin and Body Experts.

However, a miracle procedure has already been tried and tested by many. The procedure is called laser resurfacing via fractional CO2 laser using Multixel, more popularly known as Fraxel. It is a simple, effective treatment that reverses signs of aging.

“Fraxel is non-invasive and easily managed into one’s routine. It is for people who want to look good but don’t want the overly change or extended downtimes that comes with surgery. Fraxel fits into any lifestyle and your current beauty regimen. It brings real change you just can’t get from lotions and creams,” says YSA Operations Manager Belle Cazin.

Treatment cost is 5k per session/45k for 9 sessions, a price that Dr. Roque says is cost-effective, given the efficiency of the treatment.
