Hi Chloe,
I believe the collagen facial which you're talking about is
Sothys' Lift Defense Institute Treatment? Click on the name and see if it is the one you're being recommended to.
Sothys' Lift Defense Treatment has been tested on women aged 45 and above and the effects were apparent. You can read this all up in the literature they provided.
As to your question on whether collagen facial is more suitable for older women than younger women, this is my view. I believe the treatment will work with young, as well as the old. Just that, the results will be more apparent for older women than younger ones. Coz more room for improvement mah...
However, being young doesn't mean skin will be young too, if we dun take care of it. Me, for one, have pre-mature wrinkles on my neck. I will be trying this Lift Defense treatment (once only) to see the effect (mabbe next month). My beautician advise that after one session, probably can see some lightening of the wrinkle but to treat it, will need more sessions.
Actually, I used to visit Amore for facials and over there, I am also being administered collagen facial. Ermm... couldn't see much difference, though the beautician over there kept emphasising how good collagen facial is and how we girls should start young. (same story everywhere, huh?)
If you're still worried, I suggest you space out this facial package, like once a month or once every 2 months. Meanwhile, you still have your normal homecare products, right? Diligent basic cleansing routine using products suitable for your skin type should be sufficient. Does your beautician recommend other types of facials for you?
Retinol-15 is the homecare products under this Lift Defense series. It's an intensive anti-wrinkle treatment with pre-stabilised Vitamin A. Yup, only used for the night. Sorry I cannot advise you what is the effect as I have not used it yet. If you would like to know more, you can call my beautician - Daphne and check with her. Her number is 63331289. Just tell her Cynthia refer you to ask her on this. She's quite a nice lady, not pushy at all. I am sure she has other customers who bought and use this product.
