Everyone’s buzzing about the latest anti-aging treatments known as tweakments – these are subtle enhancements that give your skin a fresh look without it being obvious. Beauty expert Alice Hart-Davis dives into what they are and why they’re gaining popularity.
Tweakments include treatments like Botox, fillers, skin peels, IPL, laser, and thread lifts. They’re less invasive than cosmetic surgery but offer more noticeable results than a facial, usually temporary and subtle if done by the right doctor.
Alice has written a book, “The Tweakments Guide: Fresher Face,” and launched a website, thetweakmentsguide.com, to explain these procedures, how they work, and help you find the best practitioners. Her goal is to clear up confusion about tweakments and what they can do by fostering open, honest discussions.
She’s been covering beauty for about 20 years. Back then, tweakments were secretive and shocking. Over time, attitudes have changed, and the stigma around treatments like Botox has lessened.
Today, there are more procedures than ever. Where we once had just collagen injections and Botox, now there’s a range like laser facials, ultrasound skin tightening, microneedling, and injectable moisturizers. More people are curious about these treatments too; a Mintel report found that 43% of those questioned would try a non-surgical cosmetic procedure.
Initially seen as anti-aging for older people, tweakments are now popular for enhancing facial features at any age. Fillers can enhance lips and cheeks, and other treatments like Profhilo boost skin hydration, while ultrasound therapy offers a non-surgical facelift.
Younger patients today are more open about their treatments, often sharing results on social media. With more practitioners available across the country, it’s crucial to find experienced professionals due to the lack of strict regulations in the tweakments industry. Alice recommends starting with those listed on her website.
