New conquests

Reduce under-eye shadows, eliminate the double-chin, refine the knees, etc. Today, the innovations of aesthetic medicine offer targeted responses to affected areas and make it possible to reach places that were previously inaccessible without a knife. Explanations

The arrival of more successful injection technologies and techniques brings specialised solutions, particularly for difficult or unlikely areas. “Technological advances allow us to treat parts of the body that had hitherto been unreachable, except with a scalpel,” explains Dr Nelly Gauthier, aesthetic doctor. “Thus, a double-chin could only be removed with liposuction or lifting. Thanks to a new mini-applicator (the Coolsculpting CoolMini), we can now carry out Cryolipolysis sessions, which is the process of destroying fat using cold temperatures, on small, previously unreachable areas such as the chin, jowls, knees or bra bulges.”

“In the same way, fractional radiofrequency, which uses heat to provoke skin retraction, offers impressive results for tired looking or fatty necks.”

“With such progress, demand is enormous, and we even need to discourage patients!”
