COVER STORY: TRILIFT
GIVE YOUR FACE A TRILIFT
Elevate your business with triLift facial stimulation.
The past couple of years have seen muscle stimulation treatments rise in popularity, particularly those strengthening the abdomen or buttocks, but what about our facial muscles? What many people don’t realise, is that one of the first signs of ageing is muscle atrophy. Loss of muscle tone and thinning skin gives the face a drooping appearance, and while there are many treatments to improve the quality of skin, Lumenis’ new triLift technology is here to treat both muscle and skin.
The leading energy-based medical device company for aesthetic and eye care applications has launched triLift, which is the first treatment in the market to use Dynamic Muscle Stimulation (DMSt) in sequence with two other modalities. The technology works to tone healthy muscles, reduce facial wrinkles, and smooth and resurface the skin, achieving an effect similar to a facelift, through an entirely non-invasive method.
Unlike traditional electrical muscle stimulation and magnetic muscle stimulation, DMSt technology allows in-motion muscle stimulation, covering small to large areas. TriPollar RF and triFX Radiofrequency Microneedling then tighten the skin, smooth its texture and plump it by regenerating collagen and elastin.
“At Lumenis, we are always pioneering new technological and clinical frontiers, bringing to market innovative, efficacious and safe energy-based aesthetic solutions,” said Tzipi Ozer- Armon, CEO of Lumenis. “With the launch of triLift, a new facial stimulation category leveraging our DMSt technology, we have done just that— offering providers and patients another first-of-its-kind aesthetic solution. We look forward to partnering with providers across the globe in the months and years to come to further expand the impact and reach of this revolutionary technology.”
Why Dr Saras Sundrum Chooses triLift
Dr Saras Sundrum is a Cosmetic Physician and Founder/ Director of three Dr Saras & Co clinics across Sydney. She has been at the forefront of cosmetic enhancement technology for over three decades and is excited to introduce triLift to her patients. We caught up with Dr Saras to hear what she likes about the treatment.
Why have you decided to add Lumenis’ triLift to your clinics?
triLift by Lumenis is a very exciting, new, and extraordinary technology as it allows me as a Cosmetic Physician to offer my patients an antiageing and lifting result almost as good as surgery without the risks and downside of surgery. It is a comfortable, quick, non-invasive treatment with no surgery and no downtime that not only lifts and tones the face but also improves contour, texture, decreases wrinkling and provides very natural results with no over freezing or over filling! It has three components to it, which allows me to custom make an individual treatment for each of my patients. The other big attraction is that there are no consumables (except for the needles for their triFX component that not every patient is going to have).
How does triLift within your existing cosmetic offerings?
triLift is going to be very successful in my practice because patients who already have other treatments are going to want the lifting and toning that this treatment offers and they can still have this new treatment even though they might be having injectables and lasers. But also, it is going to attract a whole new patient group, those who don’t want to have any invasive treatment and are attracted to its easy application and longlasting results. I think it’s going to be very popular with men and women, young and old!
How do you find triLift technology to be superior to other anti-ageing technologies?
DMSt stands for dynamic muscle stimulation, which involves the application of transcutaneous electrical muscle stimulation through skin contact to activate healthy skeletal muscle and cause contraction. triLift activates this muscle stimulation causing toning of muscles and restoration of the contour of the SMAS, thus strengthening facial skin support, and improving the facial appearance.
Could you walk us through Dynamic Muscle Stimulation (DMSt) and how it works?
triLift has been very successful because, as we age the SMAS weakens, and the muscles of the lower face lose their tone. This causes a slackening of these muscles and causes a less elastic, supported look to the face. By reversing this we can provide a more youthful, supported and lifted look for our patients. After doing the necessary four to six treatments, the results are long lasting as well without the need for surgery. The demand is going to be explosive. The before and after results speak for themselves, and it can be used on almost everyone and is so easy and non-invasive! You can also tailor treatments, not all faces are the same, particularly male vs female – so we can’t take a one size fits all approach.
What has been your personal experience with triLift so far?
In my over 30 years of being in the Cosmetic Medicine field, I have always done my research and been an early adopter of new technology as this is where the biggest rewards are. You can attract the bulk of new patients and you get a growing reputation for providing the treatment first. triLift is an easy-to-use application, is completely personalised – and best of all, there are no consumables. The treatment is comfortable, and results have been incredible. I’m really excited to be able to offer this gamechanging technology to my patients.
