Décolletage (upper chest area)
The problems of décolletage, or the neck/upper chest area, is not frequently paid attention to, as compared with e.g. the face. It is only with advancing age that we start to worry about the care of our neck. Frequently there are wrinkles on the skin, but in addition pigmented spots can appear on the upper chest. The genetic programming of our constitution is heart breaking, but we can delay these changes by regular care and rejuvenation.
Cosmetics is prevention which can rejuvenate to the marked extent the complexion of décolletage. This is true specifically with regular cosmetic care and use of the appropriate cosmetic products, which include the protective anti UV rays and hydration/regeneration creams. In Asklepion the care for the neck and décolletage is incorporated to all face programmes, which are offered with products Orlane and Decleor.
The aging of the décolletage can be prevented with so called „rejuvenation”, which is therapy with laser GentleYAG. For its achieved results, this machine is called the „laser of ever lasting youth”. With the effect of warmth of laser rays the loose collagen partly recovers, some old and damaged filaments are absorbed and in about six weeks the new skin skeleton is established, with new collagen much more flexible. Thanks to adjustments of different energies levels it enables us to prepare totally individual therapy for each patient, taking into account the intensity of treatment and time available to the patient. This is well known therapy during the lunch time. The useful complementary treatment includes stimulation of new collagen in the same area with instrument such as Omnilux.
The wrinkles in the décolletage can be improved by injecting the filling materials. There are many on the market, some with the temporary or some with permanent effect. The doctor explains all this during the consultation and agreement is reached on the patient’s most suitable treatment.
Pigmented spots, typical in this area, are easily removed by laser. The specialist assesses the complexion and suggests the optimal treatment in majority of cases the spots disappear after the first procedure. The laser AlexLAZR sends during one lightening like impulse two billions watts which sail through the surface of skin and disintegrate the pigment into minute fragments. These are absorbed by the body after a short time.
For clients, who demand marked improvement but they cannot spend longer time with their therapy, the ideal measure is the use of Ellipse device or laser Vbeam.
As the rule each spot should be reviewed by a specialist. If there is a smallest suspicion that the spot or freckle could be dangerous the doctor would take a sample for histological examination.
