Wrinkle Reduction

As we age we inevitably develop wrinkles, mainly due to 3 factors:
(1) Deflation due to loss of bone and subcutaneous local (eg: face) fat volume;
(2) Skin quality deterioration due to aging, ultraviolet light exposure, and smoking. Skin loses it's resiliency; texture deteriorates; blemishes develop (sun spots, unwanted blood vessels and hair).
(3) Muscles (of facial expression) action causing wrinkles by overactivity/repetitive wrinkling with facial mimicry, and chronic tension.

Each one of the 3 factors responsible for formation of (facial) wrinkles can be addressed separately, and each of the treatments will complement the other.

Deflation can be reversed with judicious use of soft tissue fillers, restoring the volume lost due to aging or weight loss. These fillers also have a nourishing effect on dermis, thus improving overall skin resiliency, tone, and texture.

Problems of skin quality deterioration can be further addressed with various laser & light treatments such as BBL- photofacials for sun spots, vessels, and texture; various forms of resurfacing for texture and scarring; and a number of treatment options for laser hair removal. Finally, to reverse skin laxity, there are a number of laser and radio-frequency treatments.

Overactive and overly tense muscles of facial expression can be relaxed with the use of Botox, creating a smooth forehead without frown lines, eliminating crows feet, and other wrinkles in dynamic areas.

The results of combining the above treatments can be spectacular, making you look decades younger than your biological age.
