My true passion is training, and I launched my own aesthetics training company—Safer Aesthetics Training Ltd—in 2022. I love everything about aesthetics; from achieving the best results for my patients to helping practitioners grow their aesthetics business.
I have been training for VIVACY for the past 18 months, specifically for STYLAGE Hydro and Hydromax. To say I am passionate about these products would be an understatement. I love the results they give and most importantly so do my patients.
Lee Pedlar is an Advanced Nurse Practitioner who has spent the last four years training in aesthetics. He has spent the last 14 years working in emergency medicine and has an MSc in advanced practice.
5 REASONS TO TRY STYLAGE HYDRO AND HYDROMAX
GET GLOWY, FRESH-LOOKING SKIN
Age, stress, hormonal changes and environmental factors all contribute to ageing the skin and subcutaneous tissues, resulting in loss of moisture, plumpness, tone and elasticity. Skin becomes thinner and dryer, causing fine lines to appear on the surface. With 14mg/g and 12.5mg/g of hyaluronic acid (HA) respectively, STYLAGE Hydro and Hydromax are designed to fight the symptoms caused by dry skin and to improve skin moisture and elasticity in the
treated area. In addition, injecting HA in the skin tissues will stimulate fibroblasts and the production of collagen, for a smoother, tighter skin.
LESS INFLAMMATION
An injection in the skin tissues provokes an inflammatory response and the production of free radicals. They speed up HA degradation causing the injected filler to break down more quickly and the correction effect to be reduced. Mannitol, present in STYLAGE Hydro, is an active scavenger against the most aggressive radicals generated during the injection process.
It works to minimise the rapid breakdown of the injected HA gel for optimal results. STYLAGE Hydromax is the only product in the range that contains sorbitol, a powerful antioxidant and moisturising agent that helps the skin to retain water thereby maintaining hydration and limiting the immediate degradation of weakly cross-linked HA.
TREAT A VARIETY OF INDICATIONS
The true giveaways of ageing are the neck, the décolletage and the back of the hands. STYLAGE Hydro and Hydromax are indicated to treat those delicate areas too, to obtain a harmonious, rejuvenated look.
NO MORE COVERING UP
One of the purposes of aesthetic treatments is to improve the appearance of skin so that you can spend less time doing your makeup. A survey carried out in 2019 by yougov.uk showed that 63% of British women wearing makeup do so to improve their confidence. After
a treatment with STYLAGE Hydro and Hydromax, my patients report that their skin is smoother, fresher and they feel like they do not need to wear makeup as much.
DIRECTLY TREAT LINES OF CONCERN
STYLAGE Hydro and Hydromax can specifically target lines caused by dynamic movement which can’t be addressed with filler. Because of their elastic properties, you can directly treat the patient’s fine lines around the eye area, under the crow’s feet or accordion lines, where a filler would show and look unnatural. This is perfect for a patient who doesn’t want dermal filler treatment, but it can also be performed in combination with a filler for full face rejuvenation. This offers me the freedom to provide my patients with bespoke treatment.
