Aging Skin
Fine lines, loss of firmness and texture changes are natural signs of time. At MARA.H Chatswood we assess how your skin is ageing and build a lifting and renewal pathway to help improve firmness and soften the look of lines.
Chatswood, Sydney
Quick Answer
Aging skin at MARA.H is managed in three clinical tiers: DMK Enzyme Therapy to rebuild the cellular barrier, XERF dual-frequency radiofrequency (6.78 + 2 MHz) for dermal and fascial tightening, and Ultherapy Prime focused ultrasound for SMAS-layer lifting. Suitability and the right sequence are confirmed at a Chatswood consultation.
Understanding Aging Skin
Skin ageing is driven by both time and lifestyle. The aim is not to erase every line, but to support firmness, texture and radiance so the skin looks healthy and well-cared for at every stage.
What Causes It
- Loss of collagen and elastin — the structures that keep skin firm and springy.
- Sun exposure over the years — the single biggest accelerant of visible ageing.
- Volume loss in the face as fat pads shift and thin with time.
- Slower cell turnover, which dulls texture and tone.
- Lifestyle — smoking, stress, poor sleep and dehydration all speed the process.
How to Identify It
- Fine lines around the eyes, mouth and forehead that deepen over time.
- Skin that feels less firm and springy, especially along the jawline and neck.
- A loss of definition along the jaw and under the chin.
- Dullness, roughness and an uneven surface texture.
- Thinning skin that shows capillaries or crepiness more easily.
A Step-by-Step Approach
We address ageing on two fronts — the skin’s surface and its deeper structure. The MARA.H clinical team follows clinical standards established by founder Marina Hu, with each plan set for the individual.
Professional Assessment
We assess skin quality and facial structure — texture, firmness, volume and the areas that concern you most. This helps us decide whether your needs are better met by surface renewal, structural lifting, or a combination, and sets realistic expectations for what each can achieve.
Targeted Treatment Plan
We build a plan that pairs surface renewal with structural support. Treatments may include a lifting Japanese Sculpting Facial or collagen-boosting facial, for ongoing collagen support, and HIFU for a deeper structural lift.
Maintenance & Prevention
We guide you on a home routine focused on sun protection, hydration and active ingredients that support collagen. Maintenance treatments help sustain results, and we adjust the plan as your skin and goals evolve.
