This sought-after treatment delivers the same impressive effect as a surgical lower facelift and results can be seen after just one treatment.
The Strawberry Lift is ideal for combatting signs of aging, which can begin as early as our late twenties. As skin cell renewal starts to slow down, collagen and elastin deplete causing skin to look dehydrated and duller. First fine lines can also start to appear around the eyes and mouth.
In our thirties and forties, as oestrogen levels drop, skin can start to appear drier and broken blood vessels and uneven patches of pigment can emerge. Around this time, facial skin tends to become looser, creating sagging, particularly around the jawline and under the chin.
The Strawberry Lift delivers high-impact results across all these areas, including:
As well as sculpting the lower face and restoring a more youthful profile in older patients, it is ideal for giving stronger jawline definition in younger patients.
How the strawberry lift treatment works
The Strawberry Lift uses painless low-level lasers to penetrate the skin and target and eliminate adipocyte cells – also known as fat cells. At the same time, the laser heats tissue protein boosting collagen production and plumping and lifting the skin. Unlike injectable treatments such as dermal fillers, the treatment doesn’t involve needles and results can last up to 18 months.
As the laser breaks down the fat cells straight away, results can be seen after your first treatment. Over the course of treatments (typically between two to four sessions taken two weeks apart) lower facial skin gets firmer and a fuller chin is noticeably reduced. As collagen production increases over the following 12 weeks, skin quality improves and fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth and chin area appear visibly reduced.
The first step is to book an appointment at our Gerrards Cross skin clinic for a detailed consultation. Here we will talk about your skin concerns, treatment goals and how the Strawberry Lift treatment works. We will also discuss your medical background (see the FAQs).
If you are a suitable candidate, treatment can usually start right away. Lying down on a treatment couch, your face will be thoroughly cleansed, and you’ll be given protective eye wear to wear throughout. Small probes will be placed above your lymph nodes on your collarbone to stimulate the lymphatic system and sweep away the contents of unwanted adipocyte cells.
The Strawberry Lift treatment is brief, lasting between 10 and 15 minutes. Our trained aesthetician uses a hand-held laser light to target adipocyte cells under the chin and around the jawline. The laser is completely painless – the only sensation you’re likely to feel is slight warmth as it heats the underlying tissue.
For the next step, the aesthetician will apply a special gel to your face to allow the spot fat reduction handpiece to glided across your skin. With gentle movements of the probe over your face, below your cheek to your lower neck.
This helps tighten the skin and triggers fresh collagen production. Once treatment is complete, your face will be cleansed, and a gentle moisturiser with a sun protection factor will be applied.
