Facial Wrinkles and New You

Saturday, February 13th, 2010

Aging is a natural process. As you grow older your body changes, when you reach a certain age your skin starts to sag and you begin to see lines around your eyes, on your forehead, and around your mouth. Therefore, everyone at a certain age will end up having wrinkles. This fact probably explains the many anti wrinkle serums and lotions in the market that promise the removal of pesky facial wrinkles. All of these products promise rejuvenation, thus giving the skin a tighter and more vibrant look. Some treatments hasten the replacement of skin cells. As we age, it takes more time to have cells replaced. Thus, for people of mature age, their topmost layer of skin cells stay longer than usual, which makes the skin look dull and unhealthy.

Wrinkle Treatments around Town

As mentioned, there are many wrinkle reduction treatments available for everyone (although there was a time that these treatments and procedures were only for the rich). One is the laser wrinkle treatment or laser resurfacing. This procedure is used against wrinkles that are formed from the different facial expressions people make everyday as skin gets folded and tugged. Here, a laser is used to remove the old top most layer of skin cells so the younger layer of skin underneath will be exposed. With just one session, you can already see the improvements. But, it is not permanent. One drawback is that it does nothing to the skin’s rate of replacing old skin cells with younger ones. Thus, the its wonderful effects only last about six months.

A facelift is another option people with facial wrinkles can choose. Since you have to go under the surgeon’s knife, the procedure works well with wrinkles that are caused by sagging skin. Hence, folds of skin especially found below the jaw, near the throat, and around the eyes be retightened and held again to their original position. This is done by pulling back skin through surgery. The results are outstanding and last longer than any procedure or treatment available right now. Unfortunately, it is still not a permanent fix and there is a limit to how many facelifts you can have. The more facelifts you have; the more unnatural you will look. And of course, there is that important issue that it costs more and is riskier than any treatment since you will have a surgery.

Aside from the two that have been mentioned, there still many kinds of anti wrinkle treatment on the market and they are gaining popularity. Botox and Collagen injections were once the secret wrinkle treatments reserved only for the rich and famous, however after their public introduction, more and more people are using these treatments. The two substances are injected to your skin several times. Botox paralyzes the facial muscles that causes skin folds, while Collagen fills out the lines and wrinkles. The two treatments usually last for three to six months. Other treatments include: chemical peels, dermabrasion, and Themage.

For years I either find moisturizers that work great, but that don’t have any antioxidants, or I find a product that clogs pores, or one that does contain antioxidants, but that comes in a jar packaging, which makes the antioxidants worthless.
