SPF lifting is an informal name for skin rejuvenation procedures that combine the use of sun protection (SPF) and lifting techniques. Although the concept of ‘SPF lifting’ itself is not a recognised medical term, you can consider it as an approach that involves protecting the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation (UV) combined with various lifting procedures. Here are the main features and components of this approach.

The main components of SPF lifting

Sun Protection Factors (SPF):

UV protection: SPF (Sun Protection Factor) products protect the skin from the harmful effects of UV rays that can cause photo-aging, pigmentation and skin cancer.

Daily use. Regular use of sunscreen helps to keep skin looking young and prevent sun damage.

Lifting procedures:

• Laser lifting. Uses lasers to stimulate collagen and improve skin texture.
• Radiofrequency lift (RF). Uses radiofrequency energy to heat the deep layers of the skin, which helps tighten and rejuvenate the skin.
• Ultrasonic Facelift (HIFU). High-intensity focused ultrasound is used to tighten the skin and stimulate collagen.
• Injectable procedures. Involves the use of fillers and Botox to reduce wrinkles and tighten the skin.

Surgical methods:

• Facelift (facelift). Surgery to remove excess skin and tighten facial muscles.
• Neck Lift. A surgical procedure to improve neck contour and eliminate laxity.

Features of the SPF lifting procedure

• Comprehensive approach. Includes regular application of sunscreen along with selected lifting techniques to improve the appearance of the skin and protect it from further damage.
• Prevention and Correction. Protecting the skin from the sun prevents photo-aging, while lifting treatments correct existing signs of aging.
• Maintaining results. The use of SPF after lifting procedures helps to maintain results for a longer period of time, preventing skin damage.
• Personalised approach. The choice of specific lifting treatments depends on age, skin type, and degree of damage. A consultation with a dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon can help determine the best treatment plan.

Benefits of SPF lifting

• Prevention of photoaging. Regular use of SPF prevents UV damage to the skin.
• Improving skin texture and tone. Lifting treatments promote collagen and elastin production, which improves skin texture.
• Long-lasting effect. A comprehensive approach provides a more permanent rejuvenation result.

SPF lifting is a combined approach that includes sun protection and various lifting techniques to maximise the rejuvenating effect. Regular use of sunscreen and selection of appropriate lifting treatments can help to improve the appearance of the skin, making it look younger and healthier.
