Non-Surgical Treatments To Help With Signs of Aging

05/26/2023

As you age, your skin gets older – causing it to wrinkle and sag. However, despite our age, we still want to look younger than we are.  Fortunately, there are several surgical and non-surgical ways to rejuvenate your skin or appearance. And Amavi Aesthetic Surgery provides quite a few options. Let’s take a look at a few!

Dermal Fillers

Reduced facial volume is one of the major signs of aging. The effect is a hollow appearance plus deep wrinkles around the eyes, jawline, and cheeks. That’s where dermal fillers come in.

Dermal fillers are typically injected underneath the skin’s surface. This is to help improves your skin’s fullness.

Hyaluronic acid fillers like Restylane and Juvederm can plump and hydrate the skin while Sculptra, which is made of microparticles of poly-L-lactic acid, helps replenish the lost collagen. Whatever method the filler uses, it can help tighten the skin and give you a more youthful appearance.

Besides the results they provide, the good thing about dermal fillers is that they require no downtime. The results can also last up to 18 months.

Microneedling

Microneedling is a type of collagen induction therapy that makes tiny wounds on the surface of your skin and activates the body’s natural healing response as well as the growth of new collagen. Collagen is a protein usually found in the skin. It is responsible for the skin’s structure and firmness.

As you grow old, the production of collagen in your body decreases. It’s what often leads your skin to loosen and show other signs of aging.

One major benefit of microneedling is that it can treat a wide range of skin issues such as hyperpigmentation, rough skin texture, acne, enlarged pores, loose skin, and uneven skin tone.

At Amavi Aesthetic Surgery, we offer two types of microneedling: Skin Pen Microneedling and Morpheus8 which uses radiofrequency energy and microneedling together. Either type can be tailored to address your needs and achieve your desired results.

Botox and Dysport

Botox and Dysport are ideal treatments for fine lines and wrinkles that are due to repeated muscle movement in the face. The repetitive facial movements of laughing, smiling, and frowning can, unfortunately, lead to wrinkles on the forehead, around the eyes, between the eyebrows, and around the mouth and nose.

Botox and Dysport are both Botulinum neuromodulator injectables. They are used to temporarily block nerve signals to the muscles in the face. This causes the muscles to relax and smooth the fine lines and wrinkles.

Neuromodulators have many benefits compared to other forms of skin-smoothing treatments. They are also quick and require very little downtime.
