You’ve got experience, memories and confidence to boot! Your sixties are your golden years – so enjoy them! You’ve spent decades working hard, raising a family, traveling and having a good time but this is when you can start to slow down (just a little!) and use all your wisdom to create new adventures and memories. By now, a lot of the effects of ageing may be appearing on your skin. All those days spent tanning in your teens don’t seem like such a good idea now with sun damage and age spots showing through. Never fear! The right combination of resurfacing and tightening treatments will keep your skin looking good for years to come.
Most common skin concerns for this age:
- Fine lines and deep wrinkles
- Less radiant appearance
- Loss of volume
- Sagging facial shape
- Sun damage and pre-cancerous lesions
- Vaginal dryness and painful sex
Here’s our top treatments
for women in their 60’s
Fraxel Laser 1550 or 1927
Outcomes: Stimulate cell turnover for more radiant skin
When it comes to Fraxel Laser, there’s two types of treatments, depending on what your skin concerns are. For sun damage and dark spots, Fraxel Laser 1550 works to target the old, damaged cells and replace them with fresh healthy skin that has improved tone and texture. Fraxel 1927 is also a resurfacing treatment that stimulates cellular turnover and is particularly effective for wrinkles and acne scarring. Find out more here.
Tissue Stimulants
Outcomes: Restore lost volume
Bio stimulant fillers made from polylactic acid (PLA) subtly and gradually give you a more youthful looking appearance by helping to stimulate your skin’s own natural collagen production. This helps restore its inner structure and increase facial volume that has been lost to ageing. Dr. Gina is the leading trainer for tissue stimulants in WA. Find out more here.
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)
Outcomes: Treats precancerous cells
PDT is a medical treatment that the doctors at Ocean Cosmetics can perform. It involves using ALA cream combined with our Healite LED Light Therapy to target the cancerous cells. Contact us to find out more.

Dr. Gina says…
“Your skin has gone through many changes by the time you reach your sixties. It’s important to give it a lot of love and nourishment through at home skincare and in clinic treatments to keep it nourished and refreshed.”
- Sun protection is just as important now, as it was 40 years ago. As your skin starts to thin with age, it becomes more susceptible to sun damage, so applying sunscreen every morning is a must!
- Dryness is a common concern for ladies in this age group. Avoid using harsh soaps on your face and instead opt for nourishing, moisture rich products.
- Find a make-up look that works for you. Heavy foundations and powders will just highlight fine lines, however a light weight tinted BB cream or moisturising foundation will still give you the coverage you’re after.
- Chemical exfoliation will help to brighten your skin! Try to avoid the harsh, at home exfoliants and instead treat yourself to a chemical peel at a clinic.
- Maintaining a good skincare routine at home is just as important as visiting a clinic to get treatments. Home care is crucial to supporting your skin and the results you want. Your morning routine should consist of products with Vitamin B & C in the morning and use your AHA and Vitamin A products in the evening.
