For the world’s elite, no price is too high when it comes to the pursuit of maintaining younger-looking skin and optimal health from within – and increasingly, we’re turning to advanced treatments that go beyond your typical beauty salon visit and going all-in in pursuit of that youthful glow and a svelte look at any age.
With a growing number of cutting-edge innovations and exclusive experiences that cater to the most discerning clientele, there have never been more options available than there are now. And from full body cryotherapy and injectables to stem cell therapy and IV vitamin drips, it seems we’ll stop at nothing to get the best possible results money can buy.
Here, we take a closer look at the increasingly popular treatments favoured by HNWIs, which together, offer a holistic approach and combined, have the potential to offer the best possible results.
Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy – or fat freezing – has been gaining popularity over recent years as a way to accelerate fat burning and is particularly used to treat stubborn areas of fat that exercise and diet alone are not enough to reduce. But now, HNWIs are opting for full body cryotherapy treatments thanks to its ability to boost circulation and improve skin tone by stimulating cellular repair and increasing collagen reduction, seeing it as the ultimate form of self care.
Cryotherapy works by exposing the target areas to extremely cold temperatures, which for whole body treatments, often takes place through a cryo chamber – and its rejuvenating effects are many. For HNWIs, it is not seen as a stand-alone treatment, but instead, part of a comprehensive and holistic approach to aesthetics and wellness, and is often combined with other advanced therapies such as LED and infra-red for a multi-pronged treatment plan.
Botox
There’s no denying that injectables have gone mainstream over the past few years, with men and women across the globe turning to ‘tweakments’ through the likes of botulinum toxin (Botox) to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. And they’re not a passing fad, either; according to Australia-based boutique medical clinic ORO Aesthetics, botox treatment is now more highly sought-after than ever before, with HNWIs in particular prepared to pay top dollar for comprehensive ongoing treatment.
Now seen as an essential tool for retaining a more youthful appearance, with no expense spared in pursuit of perfection. The luxury approach is different; it doesn’t just work to target individual areas of the face, and instead a bespoke programme is drawn up for each individual client that is tailored to suit their individual needs, with top-ups and upkeep factored into a long-term plan to ensure that adjustments can be made as and when required to maintain results.
The HNWI doesn’t go to just anyone for their injectables, either; in fact, they typically pay eye-watering prices to have their plan overseen and executed by the leading cosmetic practitioners and plastic surgeons in the world, who are adept at catering to each client’s unique features and achieving flawless results.
IV vitamin drips
For the world’s wealthy, maintaining optimal health is key, but busy lifestyles can make it difficult to keep on top of nutritional needs. For this reason, many are integrating regular IV vitamin drip sessions into their routines to ensure that they’re getting sufficient amounts of the nutrients required for optimal functioning of the body.
Increasingly, they’re turning their backs on traditional vitamin supplements in favour of this quick and convenient solution, which delivers a cocktail of vitamins and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream for improved absorption rates and combining it with a substantial hit of hydration for a multi-faceted treatment that is packed with health benefits.
While many visit high-end clinics for the therapy, others opt to have it delivered through private services in-home for maximum convenience, making it quick and easy to fit in with their days.
There are a variety of different vitamin drips to choose from depending on each individual’s needs – and as well as offering a welcome health boost, many also offer anti-ageing benefits from within, containing a blend of high dose Vitamin C and B vitamins along with glutathione to enhance radiance, reduce fine lines and wrinkles and offer an overall sense of vitality.
Stem cell therapy
The world’s elite are forever seeking out the most scientifically advanced treatments available, and aren’t afraid to splash out for the best possible options and results. Stem cell therapy has been making waves in the world of health and beauty of late and offers an innovative approach to skin regeneration and anti-ageing. This trailblazing treatment might be in its early days, but it’s tipped for big things, and for those for whom money is no object, it’s worth the investment to get ahead of the masses and enjoy potentially far superior results to those offered by other treatments currently available.
It works by harvesting stem cells from an area of the body that has been relatively unaffected by ageing and injecting them into areas that have, such as the face or hands, repairing and regenerating damages cells to restore a more youthful appearance – which means that rather than papering over the cracks like many aesthetic treatments, it tackles the problem at a deeper level. It’s this fact that has made it so popular with HNWIs, who are looking for a more long-term solution – whatever the price tag.
