Non Surgical Face Lift

By far the most popular cosmetic treatments are those related to reducing the signs of age such as crows feet. Non-surgical face lift is a general terms used to describe treatments that are used to reduce lines, wrinkles, folds and sagging skin. The treatments fall into two main areas, skin peels and dermal fillers. Skin peels can be further broken down into chemical peels, microdermabrasion treatment, and laser skin treatment. Dermal fillers are broken down into collagen injections, Bottox (or Dysport), or those using hyaluronic acid such as Hydrafill, Restalyne, Perlane, Juvederm, Captique, Ravanesse and others. There are also Radiesse and Thermage which are slightly different from the rest.

Crows Feet

Written by Administrator. Posted in Non Surgical Face Lift

crow's feetCrows feet are fine lines and wrinkles radiating from the outer enges of your eyes to the hairline. Crows feet are caused by sun exposure, and smoking can make them worse. Years of smiling and squinting can also play a part. Here are some ways to delay the arrival of crows feet and reduce their appearance once they do.

The best way to delay the arrival of crows feet is to protect your skin from the sun and other elements by using sunscreen and moisturizer. also ensure you are doing all you can to reduce any squinting you do my wearing appropriate eye protection or corrective lenses, etc. and by all means, do not smoke.

Once crows feet have begun to appear, you may wish to begin using topicals that include Tretinoin(Retin-A), other retinoids, or alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs). These compounds help stimulate collagen production, strengthening the structure of the skin and reducing the appearance of wrinkles.

You may then consider a skin resurfacing treatment such as a chemical peel, laser skin treatment, or microdermabrasion treatment. These treatments involve removing the outer layers of skin which stimulates new skin cell production, resulting in firmer and smoother skin.

You may wish to try a dermal filler. Here a gel containing Collagen, Botulinum Toxin or Hyaluronic Acid is injected below each wrinkle. The gel plumps the skin below the crows feet and gives the appearance of smother skin and fewer wrinkles.

Finally, there is a treatment called Thermage where radio frequency energy is focused on pockets of collagen in your skin. the collagen pockets react by heating up and contracting. this accelerates the rate at which you body produces collagen and the result is smoother more supple skin where your crows feet used to be.
