The top 4 lunch hour beauty treatments
Modern women have very busy lives. We’re constantly rushing between the office and home, picking the kids up, and attempting to fit in some sort of social life in between. So when do you find the time to take care of your appearance in all of that?
Beauty clinics all over the UK are now starting to offer quick treatments that you can have done during your lunch hour, and return to the office without your colleagues suspecting a thing. We’ve done some research and found four of the best lunch hour treatments available...
Botox
This facial treatment has been around for a while now and has gained an array of fans among celebrities and civilians alike. When done properly it has remarkable results. It smoothes out wrinkles, prevents new wrinkles from forming, and can subtly alter the shape of eyebrow arches.
It’s a quick procedure, taking around 15 to 20 minutes to administer the Botox injections. Facial swelling and redness is at a minimum for most people, and you can be back in the office with enough time to eat your sandwich before your lunch hour is over.
Dermal Fillers
It used to be that a facelift was the only option for those who wanted to turn back time and have a youthful new look, but then along came dermal fillers. Hyaluronic acid, a substance that exists naturally within our bodies, is injected into the skin.
Fillers, such as Juvedern or Restylane as used here at Opera Clinic, work by plumping areas of the face such as the mouth, lips, forehead, cheeks, and eye area. This smoothes out wrinkles and gives shape to the face where it may have been lacking due to ageing.
Dermal fillers work instantly, with no down-time needed for recovery, so you’ll be back at your desk within the hour and your colleagues will be none the wiser.
Non-surgical Rhinoplasty
The dermal fillers described above are also used to perform non-surgical nose jobs. Of course, only going under the knife can make your nose smaller. However, if you want to add shape and definition to your nose without invasive surgery then non-surgical rhinoplasty is the treatment for you.
A filler such as Radiesse or Sculptra is injected into depressed areas of the nose to plump it out and smooth any lumps and bumps. As with the dermal filler treatment, a non-surgical nose job is something you can easily fit into your lunch break, returning to the office filled with confidence knowing how good your nose now looks.
Mesotherapy
If you’re plagues with cellulite and you dread the warmer months when you’ll have to start bearing more flesh then Mesotherapy treatment can be incredibly effective. A natural vitamin C solution is injected into the affected area. This breaks down the cellulite, improves circulation, and boosts lymphatic drainage.
The result is taut, smooth looking skin that you’ll be proud to show off on the beach. Although you’ll need several injections per week for around four to eight weeks, each one is quick and relatively pain free, allowing you to fit it into your lunch hour and get back to work straight after it without anyone suspecting a thing!
