Anti Wrinkle Treatment
The variety and diversity of anti-wrinkle treatments available
today can be confusing. Here is an 'idiot's guide' to choosing your
preferred treatment.
Types of Anti Wrinkle Treatment
Anti-wrinkle treatments take many forms:
- Treatments using Botox
- Treatments using dermal fillers
- Treatments using non-invasive Radio Frequency therapies
- Treatments which 'melts' fat cells
- Treatments using laser skin rejuvenenation techniques
- Treatments using cosmaceutical skin care products.
Which anti-wrinkle treatment should you choose?
Treatment using Botox
Anti-wrinkle treatment using Botox is very effective and affordable.
The result is visible within 10 days of the anti wrinkle treatment
and lasts 6 months approx. Botox works as an by relaxing muscle
and therefore softening fine lines and wrinkles.
Anti-wrinkle treatment using dermal fillers
Treatment using dermal fillers is very effective and affordable
option. Results are 'instant' and last 6-9 months. Many preparations
of dermal fillers are available, but try and choose a filler which
is bio-degradable. Dermal fillers work as an anti-wrinkle treatment
by filling the crease of the line or wrinkle, so the skin surface
appears smooth.
Treatment using non-invasive Radio Frequency therapy
Treatment such as Thermage is a high one off payment investment
and results can take 4-6 months to be fully visible, but lasts 3-4
years. Patient's report the expense, discomfort and time is worth
it.
Smart-Lipo Treatment
Anti-wrinkle treatment using a small laser to 'blast' fat cells
and tighten skin is called 'smart-lipo'. Treatment using Smart-Lipo
is again a high one-off payment, can take 3-4 months to manifest,
the result longevity is very variable.
Laser Skin Rejuvenation
Lasers can be used to stimulate the skin to produce more collagen.
This reduces the appearance of lines and wrinkles
Anti-wrinkle treatment using skin care
Treatment using skin care is by far the most widely used and should
always be used to compliment any of the other anti-wrinkle treatments.
