IndieAna- In Search of the HolyGrail

 I've been wanting to try Hanheal Exosomes for some time, however, I first wanted to use the other injectibles in my rotation seperately. Exosomes are yet another way to encourage collagen production, imperative to antiaging. Also important is elastin production which is increased by 300 %. Exosomes are derived from healthy human cells, these cells are fibroblasted dermally so that they can target unhealthy cells that may be causing fine lines, saggy skin, age spots, uneven skin, acne. Sounds amazing, right? Well, I'm willing to put this product to the test to find out. With 5 vials and a plan of attack to use monthly, I have enough for 5 months.  I used a 30g x 4mm needle to inject the Exosomes. It was on the thicker side, but was not painful during injection.  I got the lips out of the way first, injecting 8 points in total. I then went ahead and injected my forehead meso style, using a little every cm or so. As previously stated, I prefer the BAP mapping with less inje...

 I just love threads to target various saggy skin concerns. for both prevention and cure. Expectations however do need to be realistic. Years have created various issues so it's expected that visible results are going to take lots of threads and time. I had planned to treat my jawline with the packet of 20 29 gauge by 38mm PCL threads but changed my mind at the last minute to instead target my jowls and in turn building structure to firm my marionette lines where my skin is becoming lax. I just inserted the threads vertically, with 10 on each side. I must say I was surprised with just how easy these threads were to place in this area. I have used them before and found that they were flexible making them more difficult to push into the skin. Not in this area, so it was a nice surprise! I did get a bruise at the entrance areas, but both of them are not very noticeable. I'm happy with how this treatment went and fingers are crossed for some firmness in this area. Check out my  Li...

 My plan to fibroblast above my brows was shelved thanks to my hubby inviting some friends over on the weekend. Not wanting to have to explain the effects of the mole pen, but still wanting to have a blog post, I decided that instead I would show you my morning and evening skincare routines. Since regularly doing more invasive beauty treatments, I have really simplified my skincare routine. The brand of the products may change but the type of products remain the same. AM- Cleanse my face with water, using a facial cleansing cloth Hydrating toning mist Vitamin C serum Sunscreen, lately I have been preferring to use a sunscreen stick. Yep, that's it! I believe vitamin C is important and is a contant in my skincare routine. Now that I use hydrating injectables, I know longer feel the need for a daily moisturiser. PM- I like to use a cleanser at night to make sure I'm removing the sunscreen. I then alternate between a retinol product 3 times a week and then for 2 nights I add 3 dro...

 Gravity is not our friend when it comes to aging, so in an attempt to reduce my nasolabial folds that continue to deepen I decided it was time to treat my mid face with threads. I chose 27 gauge by 38 mm PCL threads and inserted 7 horizontally from the inner part of the NLF crease towards my outer face on each side. The remaining 6, I used 3 on each side inserting vertically into and either side of the NFLs. My aim is that by giving structure to that area with threads not only should it reduce the NFLs, but also help prevent further sagging of the jowls. It takes up to 2 years to dissolve PCL threads which in that time encourages collagen building and firmness. Well, that's the hope. It does take a lot of threads to do this, so paience is key.
