Anti-Aging Treatments
In a world where we are trying to look our best and our youngest, there are so many different cosmetic anti-aging treatments that promise to make patients look youthful and reverse the effects of aging.
It can be very overwhelming reading about every treatment available, what each one is used for, and whether the treatment truly works. Here we give you an overview of 7 very common and effective anti-aging treatments based on your area of concern.
Concerned about static wrinkles and loss of volume? Dermal fillers may be the right choice for you!
Static wrinkles are the type of wrinkles that remain apparent on your face when you are expression-less. They can be visible in many areas of the face and occur as we age. When we age, the natural substances in our body that aid in retaining facial structure start to slowly start decrease in production. These substances include elastin, collagen, and hyaluronic acid. A decrease in the production of these substances is what causes static wrinkles and hollowness/loss of volume to become apparent.
Dermal Fillers
The gradual decrease in hyaluronic acid is mainly what causes static wrinkles and volume loss to appear on the face.
Dermal fillers are one of the best anti-aging treatments on the market to counteract these signs of aging. Dermal filler treatment involves injecting a hyaluronic acid-based filler into the skin with a needle to provide the skin with the hyaluronic acid that it lacks. Just moments after the skin is injected with a dermal filler, the results will be seen. Hollowness and lines will appear to be filled, and years can be instantly taken off your face! This treatment can be done all over the face in areas where any hollowness is present or static wrinkles occur. Some common areas where dermal fillers are placed are the lips, cheeks, and around the eyes. Dermal filler treatments typically last from about 6 months to 1 year for people who have not had filler before, depending on the product used and the area of concern. After the skin has become accustomed to dermal filler, the second or third treatment can last much longer than the initial dermal filler treatment.
Concerned about dynamic wrinkles? Botox is the right choice for you!
Dynamic wrinkles are the type of wrinkles that occur when you are making facial expressions. Some common examples of dynamic wrinkles are forehead wrinkles when you lift your eyebrows, the “angry 11 lines” between the eyebrows, and laugh lines. These are often telltale signs of aging, but they can easily be reversed with Botox treatments. Botox is a neurotoxin that is involved in paralyzing muscle (neuromuscular tissue). Paralyzing the muscle underneath dynamic wrinkles effectively removes the appearance of this type of wrinkle. The results from anti-aging Botox treatments typically last 3 to 4 months until the feeling begins to return in the treated area.
Looking for an everyday way to keep your face looking its best? A great anti-aging skincare line may be the right choice for you!
With so many skincare lines available on the market boasting that they can reverse all signs of aging, it can be hard to tell which brands and lines are effective and show visible results. We recommend a high-quality, doctor-approved, and science-based skincare line like Vivier. With the Alyria skincare line, the appearance of several signs of aging, including fine lines and skin texture changes, can be diminished. The Vivier Anti-Aging Program uses a variety of key ingredients, including Polyamine-DAB to make skin cells and collagen work more efficiently, peptides that encourage collagen synthesis and reduce the degradation of elastin, retinol (a purified form of vitamin A) to help with sun-damaged skin, and high-quality vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) to protect antioxidants to increase skin clarity.
Laser Treatments
Concerned about skin imperfections like age spots and skin texture? Laser treatments, chemical peels, or microdermabrasion are available for you!
Laser treatments, chemical peels, and microdermabrasion are 3 procedures that are very effective in treating a variety of anti-aging skin imperfections, including age spots, discoloration, and skin texture.
These anti-aging treatments use different technologies to achieve similar results. Speaking to a medical professional may be the best way to determine which treatment is best for your skin’s needs.
Laser treatments use light technology to target certain aspects of the skin, resulting in a more youthful appearance. For example, lasers can target age spots or discoloration of the skin by emitting light. The discoloured patch of skin absorbs the energy from the laser and begins to flake away in the next few days following the treatment. This is just one example of how lasers can target telltale aging signs. The capability of lasers is quite amazing, as they can effectively help treat issues with skin tightness and textures, leaving excellent results.
Microneedling & Microdermabrasion
Often, arm lifts in Toronto are combined with body lifting procedures such as breast lift or thigh lift surgery. A mommy makeover procedure may include Tummy tuck, breast augmentation, and an arm lift to transform nearly head to toe.
When performed alone, Brachioplasty takes roughly two hours and is performed in our state-of-the-art surgical facility under general anaesthetic. There are two primary types of arm lift referred to as traditional/standard, or extended.
Traditional methods place the incision on the underside of the arm. Unless the arms are raised, the incision line remains hidden, facing the body. The incision may run vertically from the armpit crease to the elbow, or partway.
An extended arm lift is designed to remove loose skin and fatty tissue on the arms and side of the chest. This is an approach typically reserved for patients who’ve lost significant weight.
Ultimately, your specific needs, desires and body will help dictate the best approach for you, and your plastic surgeon will custom tailor your surgical plan.
Who Is A Candidate for Brachioplasty?
If you’ve lost weight and found that your skin sags in some areas, you could be dealing with excess upper arm skin that affects your wardrobe choices, your comfort and confidence. If you are at or close to your ideal body weight and in good health, you may be a great candidate for Brachioplasty.
Keep in mind that some amount of skin sagging is reasonable for many people, and mild weight loss or toning can help. It’s essential to be examined in person and discuss your expectations with a qualified arm lift surgeon to determine whether the resulting scar will be worth it for you. Brachioplasty isn’t always recommended, but for the right candidate, it can make a powerful difference.
Chemical
Peels
Chemical peels are a simple treatment. A medical esthetician applies a chemical solution to the skin for several minutes. This quick treatment causes the upper layers of the skin to shed, replacing them with new and fresh skin. The new skin is often much softer and smoother and reduces the appearance of age spots.
