How Your Skin Ages (and What You Can Do About It)
Aging — it’s inevitable, natural, and, honestly, kind of a flex. But while we fully support loving the skin you’re in, there’s nothing wrong with wanting to age gracefully (and confidently). At Alise Aesthetics & Wellness Clinic, we’re all about working with your skin to support it through each life stage — not fight it.
Let’s break down what really happens to your skin as you age and what you can do to keep your glow goals strong.
First, Why Does Skin Even Age?
Great question. Your skin starts to age due to a combo of internal and external factors. Some are unavoidable (thanks, genetics), and others — like UV damage or lifestyle habits — are in your control.
Here’s what’s going on beneath the surface:
Collagen and elastin decline (aka your bounce-back proteins)
Cell turnover slows down, meaning duller, rougher texture
Hydration levels drop, leaving skin looking dry or crepey
Volume loss can lead to sagging and hollowed areas
Pigmentation starts to show from years of sun exposure
But here's the good news — you don’t have to just let it happen. You can actively support your skin through every season of life.
What You Can Do: Smart Skin Support
At Alise, we take a preventive and restorative approach. That means we focus on maintaining your skin’s health and structure while also targeting the visible signs of aging.
Some of our most-loved tools? (Hint: they don’t involve anything drastic.)
1. Advanced Skin Therapies
We offer non-invasive treatments designed to support skin quality, boost hydration, and stimulate natural collagen production. These can be tailored to your needs, whether you're just starting to notice fine lines or want to address more established skin changes.
Note: Due to TGA and AHPRA advertising regulations, we don’t name prescription-based treatments on our website. If you’d like to explore these options, a personalised consultation with our Registered Cosmetic Nurse is the way to go.
2. Professional-Grade Skincare
We proudly use Image Skincare, a results-driven range that blends active ingredients with nourishing botanicals. Whether you’re looking to brighten dull skin, target fine lines, or protect your barrier, we’ll help you build a custom routine using clinical formulations that actually do what they promise.
Some favourites?
Vital C for hydration and glow
Ageless for targeting visible signs of aging
Prevention+ for broad-spectrum SPF protection (your best anti-aging move, always)
3. Consistent Care, Inside & Out
It’s not just what you put on your skin — it’s also how you care for your body. Think:
Staying hydrated
Getting enough sleep
Managing stress
Eating skin-loving foods rich in antioxidants, omegas, and vitamins
Aging well is a lifestyle, not a one-off treatment.
