Dramatic improvements in the look and feel of your skin – without the wait!
Many advanced aesthetic treatments get great results, but only those results are revealed gradually as they trigger changes in the structure of the skin. At Pua Manu MedSpa, our team in Kapolei, Hawaii, offers treatments that get instant results. These services may be a great option if you don’t have time to wait, such as before a big event. They combine the best of both worlds, making a big impact without the (time) commitment.
Is Botox® an “instant gratification” treatment?
Like treatments that trigger the production of collagen and elastin in the skin, the full results of Botox® are not seen immediately. You may notice some improvement soon after, but optimal improvements are generally visible in around one week. For these and other “wrinkle relaxers,” the active ingredient must have time to kick in and take effect. Once this happens, the muscles contributing to expression lines relax, and the overlying tissue looks nice and smooth. If you are looking for an injectable treatment that does get instant results, look no further than dermal fillers.
Why are dermal fillers so fast-acting?
Many dermal/soft tissue fillers are made from hyaluronic acid. This moisture-loving molecule plumps up depressions (like wrinkles and scars) and lifts lax and sunken areas. As HA binds to the water in the skin, these formulations have a plumping effect. They also quench thirsty skin and enhance elasticity and resiliency to environmental stressors. Note that this category of filler differs from another type, which are largely known as “biostimulators” or “collagen stimulators.” True to their name, these fillers are made from special substances that renew collagen production. Since this process is gradual, results with these fillers are not immediate. The smoothness, contours, and overall skin quality will improve continuously, but it can take several months to see the full results.
Will my skin look better immediately following a facial?
Yes, it’s very possible! Your skin may also feel supersmooth and baby-soft immediately after one of our facial services. Certain facials are known for their instant results; for example, Hydrafacial™ or Glycolic Peel is a patient favorite because the skin looks radiant and glowing right away. This is due to how such solutions remove the old, dead skin cells that build up on the surface. They also deeply hydrate the skin, making it look and feel refreshed and healthy. That being said, our team offers more than eight different types of facials. These facials differ in their formulations/ingredients and techniques, which affects how deeply they penetrate the skin. So, it is important to remember that, depending on your unique needs and the service you choose, your skin may be more finicky after treatment. Stubborn facial concerns may also look worse initially, as these services encourage removing damaged skin cells. Don’t worry, though. As these cells go away, new and healthy skin is revealed.
How can I get those perfectly contoured brows?
Services for the eyes at Pua Manu MedSpa are immediately satisfying. They can be a high-drama option to improve facial balance, all without the wait for other aesthetic services. By turning to professionals, we take the guesswork out of grooming and shaping your brows at home. Our professional products and techniques support long-lasting results and a comfortable, safe experience. Options range from brow waxing and trimming/tweezing to a “lash perm” (or “lift”) that enhances eyelashes naturally with keratin. This two-step process also involves tinting. You can get lush, dark eyelashes without the hassle of mascara, eyelash curlers, and false eyelashes.
