It’s never too early to begin a skin care and treatment regimen. As young adults in your twenties, this is the time for preventative care…something we like to call, “prejuvenation.” In addition to powerful products – our recommendations available for purchase through our online store – Imagen recommends a customized treatment regimen based on your age, goals, and skin type.
Twenties
Dysport – Every 6 months
At Imagen, we use Dysport to relax wrinkles caused by the frequent movement of the muscles of facial expression. This results in a more relaxed, stress-free and youthful look. Dysport has been used in millions of patients worldwide to treat undesirable frown lines between your brows, forehead wrinkles and to soften crow’s feet around the eyes.
Sculptra – 1 vial per year
Sculptra acts to stimulate collagen production, tightening the skin and replacing lost volume. Sculptra is made up of Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA), a biocompatible, biodegradable compound that has been used in dissolvable stitches for years. This compound is injected under the skin and stimulates your body to produce more collagen in the treated area.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) – 2x per year
The PRP facial was one of the first cosmetic uses for PRP. The PRP is stimulated through contact with collagen or injured tissue, so when it is combined with microneedling, the results are even more impressive. The platelets help to form a scaffold on which new collagen can be built and the growth factors help to heal and rejuvenate the skin. Facial PRP injections can improve fine lines, thinning skin and sun damage.
Thirties
Treatment in your thirties is much like your twenties with an increase in frequency. These treatments will have greater results and longevity when initiated earlier.

Optional but Beneficial:
Laser Genesis – For collagen stimulation and glow.
Often called the “Super Model Facial,” this laser can be used to treat scars, fine lines, and wrinkles while stimulating collagen production. With monthly treatments, patients will notice a dramatic improvement in their skin’s youthfulness.
Chemical Peel – For sun damage and acne scarring.
The difference between the chemical peel at Imagen and those offered by most estheticians or dermatologists is that Imagen’s chemical peel is medical-grade. This means you’re going to see deeper, more dramatic results when treating things like sun damage, skin tone and texture, acne, and acne scarring.
