A global approach to skin health and rejuvenation

There are a number of non-surgical rejuvenation products and devices globally available to support patients and help them address their skin and rejuvenation goals. While some products and devices provide more predictable and noticeable results and are less technician dependent, some products and devices, such as neurotoxins and dermal fillers, do require a particular skillset and are heavily technician dependent, which leads to increased variables in achieving ideal outcomes. This article will discuss an algorithm to provide facial rejuvenation and ideal facial ratio achievement by focusing on a more global and holistic approach, beginning with topical skin health promotion, full face muscle modulation, revolumisation and important safety and side effect considerations for optimal outcomes (Figure 1).

A basic topical skincare routine is an example of a non-surgical and at-home intervention that can assist with setting the stage for skin health through the use of daily and nightly topical products, such as cleansers, moisturisers, sun protection factor (SPF) and exfoliants. Skincare can assist with preparation and recovery for non-surgical and in-clinic interventions. Safety considerations include avoiding topical formulations with ingredients that are known to contribute to allergic atopic dermatitis, as well as other skin and systemic disturbances (Cohen et al, 2022).
