The spa industry has adapted excellently to current challenges, embracing moves such as new hygiene and sanitation measures, digitization, optimal pricing strategies, and diversification (with a special emphasis on holistic wellbeing). Ayurveda, chromotherapy, and aromatherapy all have a benefit that extends beyond immediate stress relief. Effective treatments - those that help skin rejuvenate from within by stimulating the activity of the basic building blocks of youthful skin (collagen and elastin) are also enjoying a big demand. What are some of the hottest trends in facial rejuvenation treatments? 

Speedier, Faster Anti-Aging Treatments

Clients are keen to get in and out of spas quickly while meeting ambitious anti-aging goals. One treatment that is proving popular in this respect is the Hydrafacial - a treatment that takes a host of tried-and-tested treatments like cleansing, microdermabrasion, chemical peels, and moisturizing, and packs them all into a 30-minute mega-treatment. If you have booked a hydrafacial meaning to turn back the hands of time, then be prepared for something different. During this treatment, the therapist uses a special medical-grade device to deliver active ingredients (antioxidants and moisturizers) to lend skin a glowing, smooth, hydrated look and feel.

Low Level Light Therapy

Bioscience companies like Medex have long used low level light therapy to target issues such as inflammation, edema, tissue damage, and aging. Today,’red light therapy’ - using the patented Lumière light - is used to convert light energy into cellular building blocks to stimulate the production of collagen, reduce headache-causing tension, stimulate skin healing, hydrate and firm skin, and battle the effects of sun damage. This is another non-invasive ‘all in one’ treatment that is perfect for busy professionals. Each light session takes only 20 minutes and there is no downtime or redness afterwards.

Non-Invasive Fat Reduction

Anyone with areas of stubborn fat on their face (think double chins or jowls) or body knows how frustrating it can be. CoolSculpting is a non-invasive lunchtime treatment (quick, painless, and with no downtime) that is used to literally ‘freeze’ fat cells, which are eliminated by the body over a period of weeks. During this treatment, an applicator is used to freeze fat in chosen areas while clients check their smartphones or enjoy a chat with the therapist. For those looking to further rejuvenate their skin, complementary treatments like salmon DNA injections can help improve skin texture and elasticity.

NanoFractional Radio Frequency Facials

Commonly known as Venus Viva, this treatment uses nanofractional radio frequency technology to deliver energy to the deeper layers of skin (the dermis). A gentle heat stimulates fibroblasts, helping skin to rebuild collagen. This quick, effective treatment is ideal for those seeking improved skin texture, reduced scarring, and greater firmness. It provides effective results for acne scars and stretch marks and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. This treatment is also a good choice for cellulite reduction and body reshaping.

When it comes to the latest anti-aging treatments, fast, effective, non-invasive treatments are all the rage. Some of the most in-demand treatments to date include hydrafacials, low light therapy, fat freezing, and nanofractional radio frequency treatments. All have little to no downtime yet deliver results ranging from skin tightening to volume reduction.
