Project Description

Your face sets the first impression when you meet people, because it is the first thing that others notice about your appearance. Not only is it important to take care of your skin to maintain a healthy, youthful glow, but these treatments are also essential for personal confidence. If you are looking for a way to slow down the aging process and reduce the signs of common skin problems, then our experienced team is here to assist. Here are a few options you might consider:

Level 1 Skin Care: At Home Topical Products

The foundation of your skincare lies in the daily routines that support skin health and overall appearance. Some of the most effective topical treatments include:

• Moisturizers: Keep skin cells hydrated by using a quality moisturizer. These products lock in the moisture, helping maintain a youthful appearance by keeping the cells full and plump.
• Retinol: As one of the most popular antiaging skincare ingredients, retinol can be found in many products. Retinol is derived from Vitamin A and is effective because it stimulates the production of new skin cells. At first, Retinol can be a bit irritating to the skin, which is why it is important to start slow and only use products recommended by a skincare expert.
• Vitamin C: It’s been found that free radicals can lead to the development of skin discoloration, wrinkles, and even skin growths. Vitamin C is a natural antioxidant that combats the effects of free radicals, helping you maintain beautiful skin.
• Sunblock: There’s no question that the UV rays from the sun can speed up the aging process. Too much sun exposure leads to discoloration and damage. Avoid these problems by staying in the shade during the sunniest parts of the day and also applying a high-quality sunblock on exposed skin, including the face.

One of the benefits of working with an aesthetician or dermatology team is that you can use personal product recommendations to maximize the results from your skincare routine.

Level 2 Skin Care: Injections and Fillers

If you are ready to amp up your skincare efforts, then the next step is to talk to our knowledable team about fillers and injections. This treatment is designed to reduce visible signs of aging, such as dynamic, static lines on the face. Two common in-office treatments include:

• Injections: Such as Dysport or Botox, which are injections that gently weaken the muscles. Wrinkles form due to the way the muscles and skin interact, which is why it can be helpful to manage the muscle function to improve skin appearance. These injections can be completed to smooth fine lines and wrinkles without causing functional issues with facial expressions.
• Fillers: If static wrinkles are present, it means that the wrinkles are visible even when the facial expression is relaxed. Injections can be used to fill in the creases and create a smooth surface. Fillers are also helpful for supporting midface volume as well.

Level 3 Skin Care: Chemical or Laser Resurfacing

The next level of skincare is to resurface the skin using chemicals or lasers. These treatments can be customized to treat discoloration, sun damage, wrinkles, fine lines, and mild laxity.

• Chemical Peels: This treatment involves an in-office application of strong skincare products that penetrate the skin for maximum healing. Each chemical peel is customized based on the sensitivity and needs of each patient.
• Laser Treatments: A variety of laser and light treatments can be used, include IPL Photofacials and other laser technology to treat the top layer of the skin. IPL targets the pigmentation in the skin, while other laser treatments can be used for fine lines and wrinkles.

When it comes to skin resurfacing, keep in mind that you will need time for healing after the treatment is completed. For example, many people experience mild skin peeling 3 – 7 days after a chemical peel or laser treatment.

Level 4 Skin Care: Surgical Services

Eventually, the signs of aging will reach a point where skincare products and other minimally invasive treatments just aren’t enough. If you are experiencing volume loss and skin laxity, then you might consider talking to a plastic surgeon about your options. These treatments might include services such as eyelid surgery, a facelift, or a neck lift. Surgical treatments aren’t the right answer for every person, which is why it is essential to create a custom skincare plan with an experienced cosmetic doctor.
