Everybody’s buzzing about the latest anti-aging treatments called tweakments. These are small enhancements that give your skin a healthy glow without looking overly done. Beauty expert Alice Hart-Davis breaks it down.
Tweakments are cosmetic procedures that offer more noticeable results than a facial but aren’t as intense as surgery. These include treatments like Botox, fillers, skin peels, intense pulsed light, laser, and thread lifts. They’re usually non-invasive or minimally invasive, providing clear but temporary results. The key is to pick a good doctor to ensure the results are subtle and natural-looking.
Alice Hart-Davis is all about educating people on tweakments. She even wrote a book called “The Tweakments Guide: Fresher Face” and launched a website to explain how these procedures work and to help you decide if they’re right for you. She also offers a list of top practitioners around the country.
Alice has been a beauty journalist for about 20 years, and back then, cosmetic procedures were a bit of a secret. People were shocked at the idea of getting injectables to look younger. But attitudes have shifted, and treatments like Botox and fillers are more accepted now.
These days, the range of procedures has expanded greatly. In the past, you only had options like collagen injections and Botox. Now, there’s everything from laser facials to ultrasound skin tightening, microneedling, and injectable moisturizers that help with skin regeneration.
According to a Mintel report, 43% of people are interested in trying non-surgical cosmetic procedures. This shows just how curious people have become about tweakments.
Initially, tweakments were geared toward reducing the signs of aging for an older crowd. But now, people of all ages use fillers to enhance lip shape, cheek definition, and jawline balance. Other treatments, like Profhilo, boost skin hydration, and ultrasound therapy offers a non-surgical facelift.
Younger people are more open about these procedures and share their results on social media. There’s also been an increase in the number of practitioners offering tweakments, which has its pros and cons. While it’s great to have more options, the lack of regulation means some practitioners may have minimal training.
If you’re looking for a qualified practitioner, Alice recommends starting with those listed on her website, as they’re ones she trusts herself.
