Recapture a more youthful look and feel.
“Menopause Makeover” is a catch-all term for a procedure or set of procedures that target areas of the body that change during the time of life when women undergo menopause, typically in their 40s or 50s.
Menopause significantly impacts the entire body composition such as an increase in abdominal fat and a decrease in muscle mass, as well as skin changes like thinning and decreased elasticity. The hormonal changes triggered by this natural process cause collagen loss, softening of cartilage, and weakening of bones, leading to issues such as drooping brows, lax eyelids, a less defined jawline, and deep-set wrinkles. Body shape may also change, particularly in areas such as the breasts and abdomen.
A range of procedures may be part of a treatment plan for issues related to facial appearance, including blepharoplasty (eyelid lift), chin implant, rhinoplasty (nose job), facelift, and neck lift. Procedures that address areas beyond the face include a breast lift, tummy tuck, or liposuction.
Key Benefits of Menopause Makeover
- Rejuvenate your facial appearance
Combats effects of hormonal changes that can lead to drooping or sagging skin in the face and neck. - Optimize your body contours
Revitalize areas of the body, such as the breasts or abdomen, that have lost shape and definition. - Boost your self-confidence
Increase your self-esteem following a significant stage in life.
Persana Tip
During your consultation, ask about non-surgical options for rejuvenating your facial appearance. Though these are more temporary solutions, skin tightening treatments, skin resurfacing treatments and Botox® (as well as other injectables) can provide improvements, especially when the effects of aging are less pronounced.
Get your glow back
Skin resurfacing and smoothing treatments encompass a range of non-surgical procedures that are designed to enhance the appearance of your skin. These treatments target a range of concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, tone and texture, age spots and scars, pigmentation issues, and lack of elasticity in the skin. The common thread is helping you achieve a refreshed and revitalized look.
Key Benefits of Skin Resurfacing & Smoothing Treatments
- Rejuvenate Your Skin
Remove old skin and promote new growth for a younger, more refreshed appearance. - Reduce Hyperpigmentation and Target Discoloration
Address discoloration and age spots to reveal more even skin tone. - Improve Uneven Skin Texture
Reduce the appearance of fine lines, scars, and enhance overall skin texture.
Persana Tip
With any aesthetic treatment, it’s always best to be specific when describing your goals, such as “I want to reduce wrinkles around my eyes”, “Smooth my skin texture”, “Even out my skin tone”, or “Improve my scarring or dark spots.” This can help tailor the treatment plan and make sure you walk away satisfied. That said, if you’re not sure exactly what you want and are open to guidance, general statements like “I want to look younger” are perfectly fine.
Fade streaks and reveal smoother skin
Stretch marks, also known as striae distensae, are narrow streaks or lines that appear on the skin’s surface due to rapid stretching. This stretching can rupture the collagen and elastin fibers that support our skin, resulting in an inconsistent skin texture and striated appearance as healing occurs.
Stretch marks, which are more prevalent in women, typically appear on the lower abdomen, back or flanks, buttocks, thighs, or breasts. Though common, their presence can cause significant emotional distress, affecting self-image and self-confidence. While treatments have not been successful in removing them entirely, there are effective novel therapies that can make these streaks less visible.
Key Benefits of Stretch Mark Treatments
- Improve the Appearance of Your Skin
Minimize stretch mark streaks on areas like the back, flanks and thighs, helping to optimize your body’s complexion. - Enhance Skin Texture
Bring consistency to your skin by treating areas where it is striated or elevated. - Boost Self-Confidence
Minimize marks that can affect your body image and lessen your comfort in engaging in everyday activities.
Persana Tip
Despite advancements in various therapies, treating stretch marks remains challenging. This difficulty stems from the near-permanence of stretch marks, intricate processes involved in skin healing, diversity in skin types, and individual reactions to treatments. While the appearance of stretch marks can improve, you should not expect the skin to completely regain its original texture and color.
Renew your feminine vitality.
Vaginal rejuvenation refers to a variety of procedures that target specific features of the female genital area, including the labia, vagina, clitoris, and the area above the vagina and below the abdomen (mons pubis). These areas of the body may require improvements due to medical conditions or trauma, including childbirth complications or aesthetic concerns arising from the natural aging process. Vaginal rejuvenation surgery can be sought for functional reasons, aesthetic reasons, or both.
Key Benefits of Vaginal Rejuvenation
- Improve Feeling and Function
Restore tightness in the vaginal canal, which can become loose after childbirth or due to the natural aging process. - Have Confidence in Intimate Moments
Augment the appearance of the female genitals to enhance feelings of comfort and self-esteem. - Reduce Discomfort
Enhance urinary control and address issues of irritation or pain that can affect your ability to exercise and enjoy sexual intercourse.
Persana Tip
When considering vaginal rejuvenation, it’s important to tell your surgeon about your current and ideal preferred genital aesthetics, as well as the areas of your sexual life you feel are currently affected by your genital appearance or function.
