The Top 4 Non-Surgical Cosmetic Treatments for Summer

Summer is right around the corner. And while it may not be the jet-setting summer you had planned due to the coronavirus pandemic, we bet you’ll be out and about in your local area soaking up the sun. After all, getting fresh air and vitamin D is super-important when you may be spending more time indoors.

As salons, spas and aesthetic clinics start to open their doors again, you may be wondering what non-surgical cosmetic procedures are available to help get you ready for summer. We will share our top four treatments you’ll want to consider to get you rolling into summer with confidence and grace. 

Fat-Removal Injections

Even if you aren’t strutting your stuff at the beach in a bikini, we bet there’s some area of your body you’d like to tone up to feel more confident. A revolutionary non-surgical treatment called Aqualyx helps rid your body of small pockets of fat that just won’t budge with good diet and exercise. Aqualyx hit the market in 2009 and is safe to use on areas like love handles, saddlebags, under the chin and around the hips. During this procedure, small injections are made under the skin that dissolve fat cells. These are then naturally flushed out by the lymphatic system. How many sessions you need will be determined by the area and how stubborn the fat is, but most people have two to five treatments spaced out every four weeks. If you are curious about fat-dissolving injections, you can find some of the common myths here. 

Medical Weight Loss

While fat removal injections are best for those around a healthy weight who need a bit of toning in a small area, if you need help losing more weight, consider Saxenda, a revolutionary, FDA-approved, prescription weight-loss medication. If you’ve struggled with your weight and nothing is working to get to a healthy place, Saxenda weight-loss injections help to regulate your appetite. By not overeating and feeling fuller faster, you can easily maintain a healthy diet and lose weight at the same time. If you are curious if Saxenda is right for you, take this quiz to find out.

Skin Hydration Therapy

Hyaluronic acid is all the rage. If you follow beauty and skincare trends, you’ll have heard of it. There’s a new skin hydration therapy called Juvéderm Volite that injects an advanced hyaluronic acid-based gel into the skin to bring much-needed collagen and elasticity to dry, damaged or ageing skin. This treatment is good for all skin types and is used mostly on the face, neck, décolletage and the back of the hands. It could be just the boost your skin needs for a refreshed and youthful look. It also has a side benefit of reducing wrinkles.

Advanced Sun Protection

You may think generic sunscreen is enough to protect your skin from harsh summer rays, but with the ozone layer depleting and UV rays becoming harder to shield from, it’s time to take your sun protection to the next level. This is where Heliocare steps in. This oil-free SPF 50 gel is clinically proven to protect against UV rays like no other pharmacy sunscreen can. We wanted to include it on our list because daily sunscreen is the first line of defence when it comes to protecting and keeping your skin youthful. It’s never too late to improve your skincare regime. We all know how important it is to wear sunscreen daily, as it slows the ageing process and protects against skin cancer. Heliocare is a bit more expensive than other sunscreen products, but your skin is worth it!
