Aesthetics
As aesthetic skin concerns affect both your complexion and overall appearance, they can influence how you perceive yourself. Pigmentation, sun damage, sagging skin, or the presence of fine lines and wrinkles can potentially affect your confidence and self-esteem. These concerns can also lead you to not look or feel the way you want to.
Sanctuary by Cutis offers a range of treatments designed to help you address and improve whatever is bothering you. Our goal is to help you look your best at every stage of life and in turn make you feel good about yourself.
What are the most common aesthetic concerns?
Some of the common aesthetic skin concerns that people wish to improve/get rid of include:
- Acne –occurs when the hair follicles get clogged with excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. Hormonal imbalances can also contribute to the development and worsening of acne.
- Acne scars – are trauma in skin issues caused by acne inflammation. Acne scars can vary in appearance and texture, and require a specific type of treatment to repair the damaged areas.
- Age spots or hyperpigmentation – are small areas of discolored patches that commonly appear in areas of the body regularly exposed to the sun, including the face, neck, shoulders, and back of hands.
- Blackheads – are made of oxidized sebum and dead skin cells in your pores. Blackheads are most common among adolescents, but they can occur at any age.
- Enlarged pores – can be clogged with sebum, dirt, and dead skin cells. Factors that contribute to the appearance of large pores include genetics, sun exposure, acne/breakouts, excess oil or sebum, and harsh extractions.
- Facial redness – can be due to conditions such as acne, broken blood vessels (spider veins), and rosacea. Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition, with symptoms such as facial flushing, spider veins, thickened skin, and papules and pustules.
- Fine lines and wrinkles – are among the most recognizable signs of aging that commonly appear on the forehead, between the brows, and around the corner of the eyes. They usually show up in the late 40s or 50s and beyond, but can also occur in your early 30s or late 20s.
- Sagging skin – can be due to loss of elasticity (aging), declining levels of collagen and elastin, loss of facial fat pads, weakening facial muscles, and bone loss. Signs include a saggy appearance, flatter cheeks, a rounded jawline, and a sunken appearance in the eye area.
