The Experts’ Guide To Anti-Ageing – 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s & Beyond

By Dr. TRACY MOUNTFORD, MBBS MBCAM

As you age, your body and skin are put through their paces with the general stresses of daily life. From smoking and sunbathing to late nights, work-related stress, fatigue and alcohol consumption, many factors can work against you over time as you try to preserve the beauty and freshness of your youth.

But dealing with these detrimental factors isn’t as difficult as it may seem if you have the right knowledge and tools at your disposal. This is where the expert advice of our anti-ageing beauty specialists can help.

Here at The Cosmetic Skin Clinic, we have worked with our dedicated and highly skilled team of beauty and wellbeing experts to create a comprehensive ‘Experts’ Guide To Anti-Ageing.’ This detailed toolkit has been designed to guide you through the decades by emphasising the most important ageing factors to counter in your 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s and more.

The toolkit then introduces a range of effective non-surgical treatment options available for each age category that work successfully to combat the stresses of each era. This ultimate one-stop guide has every anti-ageing treatment covered, no matter what age range you fall into.

Our Experts’ Guide to Anti-Ageing

Fun Thirties

In our 30s, the fast-paced living of our twenties may come back to haunt us. Collagen and elastin begin to decrease, our skin texture changes, and we begin to lose the sculpted and fresh look that we were accustomed to in earlier years. Individuals in this age range should therefore opt for simple treatments that bring back the glow of youthful skin, tackle old skin concerns such as acne scars and hyperpigmentation while toning and sculpting the face.

Refreshing Forties

In your 40s, as gravity’s pull gets stronger, the key to staving off a surgical facelift is all about punchy ‘combination treatments’ that plump, tighten and reboot tired and wrinkled skin.

Lips begin to thin, skin starts to sag, definition loss, and double chins become harder to disguise, making fillers, collagen-boosting and recontouring treatments paramount in this era. Our cosmetic specialist Dr Joanna Christou shares her tips for this age range in the video below:

  • Morpheus8: tightens skin laxity, remodels the skin to be contoured and lifted, reduces the appearance of stretch marks

Restorative Fifties

A new decade brings with it a range of new challenges. Hormone levels drop post-menopause for women, while skin becomes significantly thinner, hyperpigmentation occurs, and enlarged pores become more visible. Loss of bone density and fat in the cheeks and temples can also occur, causing the chin and neck to lose definition. As a result, jowls may start to appear. To target these issues, seek out treatments that restore volume and tighten the skin’s appearance.

Recommended treatments:

  • Dermal Fillers: To restore volume loss in key areas like hollowed cheeks, while redefining face shape with Teoxane hyaluronic acid dermal fillers
  • Ultherapy: Collagen stimulator. A regenerative, skin lifting and skin tightening treatment. Ideal for targeted areas like jowls
  • CoolMini: Targeted fat loss treatments for double chins
  • Profhilo: Improving skin laxity
  • Silhouette Soft Thread Lifting: A non-surgical facelift using threads (see our thread lifting before and after Gallery)
  • Tixel Eyes: To treat aesthetic conditions such as wrinkles, age spots, skin discolouration, sun-damaged skin and even acne scars.
  • Forever Young BBL: Smooths appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, stimulates new collagen whilst revive existing collagen so skin is firmer and more contoured leaving you with a more youthful appearance
  • Morpheus8: Reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation, skin irregularities, fine lines and wrinkles. Contours, lifts and tightens the face and promotes collagen production

The Sixties & Beyond

To hit sixty in your stride, it’s all about maintenance and well-balanced treatments that keep you looking fresh. Choose replenishing and rejuvenating treatments for smoothing over lines, as well as targeting the tell-tale signs of ageing, from eye bags and temple hollowing to tear troughs, age spots and skin pigmentation. Judy Murray, mum to tennis star Andy Murray has recently thrown light on the benefits of rejuvenating aged skin by undergoing a non-surgical facelift at 61 using micro-needling. Choose similar treatments and IPL Photo Rejuvenation if you want to target the same sun damage and skin pigmentation issues that Judy Murray has faced. Collagen-boosting treatments like Ultherapy also work wonders to bring back lift and strength at this age. 

Recommended treatments:

  • Dermal Fillers: Teoxane fillers will lift and smooth tired eye bags, tear troughs and temple hollowing
  • Thermage Eyes: Tightens skin and smooths wrinkles around the eyes
  • Ultherapy: Lifting and tightening the skin across the face, neck, chin and brow
  • Nefertiti Neck Lift: Smoothing and tightening the neck bands
  • Forever Young BBL: Protects against sun and environmental damage and smooths appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, stimulating new collagen
  • Morpheus8: tightens, lifts and smooths skin to look contoured whilst reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
