Wrinkle Reduction Q & A
What do you need to know about wrinkles?
You can postpone wrinkles with healthy skin care habits, like gently cleansing and moisturizing every day, getting the nutrients needed to keep skin in good shape, and protecting your skin from the sun, but eventually time begins to take a toll. As you age, skin starts to thin out, glands secrete less protective oil so skin becomes dry, and the body produces less collagen, which is the substance that keeps your skin strong and toned.
Years of lively facial expressions begin to etch fine lines and wrinkles into aging skin, so it doesn’t spring back the way it used to. But thanks to advanced anti-wrinkle treatments, you can fight aging. The doctors at Ballantyne Medical Associates are experts in anti-aging and aesthetic procedures. Contact the office today so the doctors can answer your questions, eliminate wrinkles, and help you regain a more youthful appearance.
How is wrinkle reduction achieved?
-
Injectables:Products such as Botox and hyaluronic acid fillers are injected into the wrinkle.
-
Skin resurfacing:Thin layers of skin are removed using lasers.
-
Non-ablative procedures:Lasers or radiofrequency waves reach down to deep layers of skin without affecting the top layer, then they stimulate the production of new collagen and elastin.
What should you expect after treatment to reduce wrinkles?
-
Injectables:Fillers and Botox don’t take long to inject, and they don’t require downtime. However, your doctor may recommend avoiding strenuous activity for a short time.
