What Happens to Our Skin At 40?
From as early as our 20’s and 30’s, our skin is already starting to change and age, with a gradual decrease in collagen and hyaluronic acid production in the dermis.
When we reach our 40’s, the skin will progressively start to lose its firmness, elasticity and become visibly drier, resulting in noticeable expression lines, such as crow’s feet and frown lines.
Depending on a person’s skin type and a number of other contributing factors, the first signs of ageing may start to be noticed (hollow cheeks, marionette lines), along with early loss of fat and volume in the face (dark circles under the eyes, accentuation of wrinkles around the mouth).
During this time, it is important to choose the right products and procedures to prevent and reduce the effects of ageing on the skin in an effective way that guarantees lasting results!

“Having worked in the aesthetics industry for many years now, I know what to expect, but it does not mean that I have to accept it! It is all about ageing with style, respecting the process, but doing it on my own terms.”

GOODBYE SMILE LINES
Reduce wrinkles with HA
The nasolabial folds (NLF) are the wrinkles between the nose and mouth area and are usually caused by smiling or laughing. Over time, if not treated correctly, these lines will become deeper and deeper, leaving marks that are visible even when the face is in a neutral position.
STYLAGE® M is the perfect product to treat the NLF when they are not yet marked, as more of a preventative treatment. STYLAGE® L provides a stronger support for NLF that are deeper and more visible.
Talk to your practitioner to see which treatment is best suited to your situation.
TREATING THE UPPER FACE
From Crow’s Feet, Eyebrow lift to Filling the Temples
When we smile or laugh, it is not only the NLF that are affected, but thousands of little muscles in the face. These mimics caused by laughing can also leave fine lines and visible wrinkles around the eye area, otherwise called Crow’s Feet.
To help with the eye area and bring back roundness or plumpness to the face, another possible treatment is the temples. By injecting the temples, not only is the hollowness caused by ageing diminished, but the edge of the eyebrow will experience a slight lifting effect, hence opening the eyes and stretching the skin to smooth the area.
After treatment, results can last between 12 and 18 months1 depending on the product and area injected.
TREAT LOWER FACE & LIPS
Facial remodelling is more than a trend
Hyaluronic acid injections can play a vital role in slowing down the effects of ageing in a woman’s face. When injected in the lower face, it is possible to reshape the jawline and generally improve and re-establish lost facial proportions.
When we talk about the lower face, we can also mention the lips. On top of natural ageing of this area, some people may also experience asymmetric lips, as a result of surgery2, for example.
The lost definition, including the contours of the mouth, hydration and lose of volume in the lips can all be treated easily and safely with the dedicated STYLAGE® products.
HANDS VOLUME & HYDRATION
Optimal Rejuvenation Guaranteed
When it comes to aesthetic treatments, the hands are often overlooked or neglected. However, this highly solicited area also experiences the effects of ageing, just like in the face: loss of elasticity and volume. As we age, the skin may start to thin, causing veins and bones to become more visible.
Hyaluronic acid injectable products can help restore the lost volume in the back of the hands, but also bring hydration with STYLAGE® L or STYLAGE® HydroMax.
The results are instant and create a more youthful appearance, with results lasting up to 12 months1.
