ANTI-AGEING TREATMENTS

As the body ages, so does our skin. Skin is the largest organ of the body that protects our body, bones and internal system.  With age, our skin shows signs of aging as well in the form of age spots, wrinkles, sagging and fine lines.

A number of treatment options are available to keep your skin look younger and prevent the aging signs. Some of the people may opt for surgery like brow lift, facelift or cosmetic surgery. It is a personal choice of the person.  Botulinum toxin or fillers are used to treat deeper facial lines along with hyaluronic acid injections, Gore-Tex implants and your own fat of the body.

Retinoid Creams

A wide assortment of over-the-counter products claims to fight aging signs and a popular one of them is topical retinoid creams. Retinol is derived from Vitamin A. Retinoid creams help to fight the early signs of aging. It has been proven to fight the aging lines that are already there.

Microdermabrasion

With age, skin tends to become dry and flaky. Microdermabrasion refines the texture of your skin making it smooth and eliminating the sun damage spots, bumps from trapped oil and dry skin. The dead skin cells are scraped up using a textured metal wand that exfoliates the skin.  The results last for about two-three weeks.

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels means to destroy the top layer of the skin using chemicals that reveals a new one.  Brown spots and hyperpigmentation is removed with the help of chemical peels at the same time, it also minimizes the injury to the outer layer of skin. In the process of chemical peels, acid is applied to the face depending on its strength. The acid includes lactic, glycolic, alpha and beta hydroxy normally. The acid can be left on the skin from few minutes to overnight. You can see visible results after one week though you might feel irritated and sensitive during the time.

Injectables

Botox and dysport are the common injectables used for anti-aging treatments and one of the most popular cosmetic procedures. Botox is used to remove wrinkles and lines across the forehead, between the eyes and crow’s feet. The purified toxins present in botox injections block the muscle contractions under the skin which reduces and sometimes completely erases the wrinkles and frown lines. The results of botox injections last up to four months.

Laser Resurfacing

Skin loosens with age and becomes textured as well. Using the laser resurfacing method or fractionated laser, skin can be become tighter and toned.  Light energy is used in the form of fractional lasers and pierced into the collagen layer of the skin. This process restores the elastin and collagen of the skin removing the broken blood vessels and hyper-pigmentation.  The results are evident within one week time and your skin will continue to improve after the treatment for couple of months.
