Our most popular treatment this winter has to be Triderma, the three-in-one complete facial rejuvenation treatment. Either done on its own or prior to hyaluronic skin booster treatment for an even better result, at this time of year we struggle to keep up with demand.
Triderma combines three effective facial rejuvenation therapies into one. With our Venus Versa system, you can give clients a photofacial treatment, an anti-ageing treatment, and a skin resurfacing treatment all in one.
The result is a high-intensity, non-invasive, effective form of skin renewal. Today, Triderma is known as the facial rejuvenation treatment that can simultaneously enhance skin tone, tightness, and texture. It’s a powerful therapy that results in a younger, smoother-looking appearance.
Photorejuvenation
Triderma provides effective treatment for pigmented and vascular lesions. Using intense light (IPL) technology to drive bursts of energy onto the targeted areas. The intense pulsed light used is selectively absorbed by the target chromophores — namely, hemoglobin for vascular lesions and melanin for pigmented lesions.
Anti-Aging
Enhanced collagen production helps reduce the appearance of skin laxity and fade the appearance of fine lines. Triderma uses a combination of multi-polar radio frequency (RF) and pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF). Multi-polar RF produces fast and homogeneous heat in multiple tissue depths, resulting in excellent clinical results and a more comfortable experience.
Skin Resurfacing
Triderma can also improve the appearance of textural skin conditions such as acne scars and other scars, rosacea, uneven skin texture, enlarged pores, dyschromia and pigmentation. Using the specially designed NanoFractional RF applicator a precise amount of energy is delivered uniformly to each pin electrode. High-energy density is distributed through a small footprint per pin leaving sufficient intact tissue in between for faster wound healing, uniform post-treatment tissue appearance and lower downtimes than most other devices.
Not all machines are made equal which is why we took so long over choosing what was best for our practice and our patients.
We’ve extended the recommended treatment time to two hours to allow a mask afterwards. Some patients may find their skin will be red and for the first 24-48 hours you will experience some ‘gridding’ and roughness in texture which can last 2-3 weeks.
Any pigmentation will darken over the first 24 hours and will take 5-10 days to naturally slough off the skin. You will not be allowed to apply or rub anything on your skin, including water or sweat (so no hot yoga or any other exercise that will make you perspire).
After 24 hours, you may put on makeup and resume your regular skin care routine. You should apply sunscreen (at least SPF 30), preferably one without chemicals.
And while a course of three treatments spaced 4-5 weeks apart is the ideal if this is too big a time commitment you can just book in for just one treatment. Though most patients love it so much they end up making the time to come back! You can also talk to your clinician about how to fit these in, around any other appointment you may have scheduled, to get the maximum results.
