Facial Ultrasound In Aesthetic Medicine, What Is Its Purpose?
Skin ultrasound is used in dermatology to diagnose and monitor skin pathologies. In addition, this technology helps in monitoring patients with inflammatory diseases, such as psoriasis or hidradenitis.
However, its use has not been limited only to the medical aspect but is also performed on patients who want to improve the appearance of their skin through aesthetic medicine.
Why Is It Used In Aesthetic Medicine?
The modern technique in Denia applies ultrasound waves through the skin to know the state of the tissues in real time.
Thanks to the information obtained with this simple test, the doctor performs a dermatological study of the skin with which to recommend the most appropriate medical-aesthetic treatments to the patient.
In addition, it must be taken into account that there are anatomical variants in the routes of the blood vessels of the face. With facial ultrasound, we can know where the “risk areas” are. In this way, we can perform the treatment safely.
These are its advantages before carrying out the treatment, but it also has benefits afterwards, since a facial ultrasound control after infiltration or filling is very useful to know if it is located correctly and in the right plane.
What information is obtained from facial ultrasound oriented to aesthetic medicine?
The specialist analyzes these aspects of the skin during the skin ultrasound:
- Assess the degree of skin ageing.
- Helps assess localized fat. Measure and locate the fat thickness both before and after treatment.
- Provides information on the filler material applied in previous treatments that the patient has undergone.
- It helps to assess the most appropriate aesthetic medicine treatment for each patient.
- Provides information about the patient’s anatomy.
personalized treatment plan
With the result of the skin ultrasound, the specialist can establish a personalized treatment plan for each patient. This plan may include any of these treatments.
- Hyaluronic acid
It is one of the most used substances in aesthetic medicine because it is natural. Hyaluronic acid fillers are very effective because they retain large amounts of water and add volume and hydrate tissues.
- Botulinum toxin
If we talk about infiltrations, we cannot forget about botulinum toxin. Its purpose is to relax the facial muscles to generate a downward action of the face and enhance those that have an upward function.
- Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
This treatment is performed using the patient’s own blood. First, blood is drawn, which is centrifuged to extract growth factors. Finally, it is applied by infiltrating the face, neck and décolleté with microinjections.
- Dermatological laser
In our clinic, we have the most advanced dermatological lasers for facial rejuvenation, that is, to treat facial blemishes, reduce wrinkles, and improve flaccidity.
- Obagi method
It refers to a line of products that peel the skin and improve its appearance. This treatment is recommended for those patients who seek to prevent, care for and maintain good skin health.
