Unavoidable aspects of growing old, such as fine wrinkles, thinning hair, dry skin, age spots, and dark circles, keep us awake at night. The popularity of plastic surgery is on the rise, but it comes with several hazards (and a high price tag) that make it unappealing to some people. Luckily, you can achieve a youthful glow without surgery.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C’s anti-aging effects are a favorite among dermatologists and beauty bloggers, who praise it for its effectiveness. It can improve your skin’s texture and appearance for a more youthful appearance. It is proven that Vitamin C is among the three antioxidants that can reduce UV damage and prevent future injury.
Moreover, it stimulates collagen formation to improve the skin’s suppleness and eliminate wrinkles and creases. This miraculous antioxidant tackles obstinate skin discoloration and lowers the look of under-eye bags, redness, and hyperpigmentation, among others.
As a serum, vitamin C is one of the most acceptable methods to include in your beauty routine. Before applying moisturizer and makeup, after clean and tone your face, add a small quantity of a vitamin C serum and let it permeate for a few minutes.
Microneedling
A microneedling procedure involves pricking the skin with tiny needles to make it appear younger. As a result of microneedling, anti-aging medicines such as vitamin C or hyaluronic acid can permeate deeper into the skin’s layers.
After applying serum to your face and chest area, the dermatologist will use a needling instrument on the treatment area to ensure deeper penetration. Minor wounds from the needles would increase collagen creation and new elastin production, even if the doctor didn’t use any serum.
Skin Tightening Using Radiofrequency
Through a micro-inflammatory process, radiofrequency procedures constrict loose skin by increasing collagen. An energy-emitting handheld gadget heats the skin’s layers, stimulating collagen formation — it’s said to feel like bathing in hot stone. Radiofrequency can constrict skin on any part of your body, including your face (yes, even your butt.) According to dermatologist Stefanie Williams, you’ll require six to twelve treatment sessions to get the best results since benefits need time to develop slowly.
Xeomin, Dysport, Botox
Botox is among the most prevalent cosmetic procedures conducted every year amongst minimally invasive millions — and for a good reason. Botox reduces face wrinkles and fine lines by numbing the muscles beneath. A smooth, youthful appearance is created when muscles are immobilized since the skin above can’t move and crease.
Dermatologists often use it to treat frown lines, lines surrounding the eyes (crow’s feet), and forehead wrinkles. Depending on the area treated, the anti-aging effects of Botox treatment persist between three and six months. Although it can’t treat sun-damaged wrinkles, microneedling — or any other treatment — combined with Botox, on the other hand, can yield remarkable anti-aging benefits.
Laser Resurfacing
Dermal laser resurfacing removes skin layers by using brief, focused beams of light to improve texture. Flaws on the face, such as sun damage, wrinkles, blood vessels, acne scars, and age spots, have an excellent reaction to laser resurfacing because it smooths out your skin for a truly younger tone instead of only looking younger. Professionals can sometimes improve the texture of your skin with just one treatment. To achieve the finest and longest-lasting results, most lasers need a set of treatment sessions.
Microblading
In the same way that your hair thins as you grow older, your eyebrows will also become sparse with age. Using a non-surgical cosmetic procedure called microblading, you can achieve the look of thick, rich brows that can make you appear younger and give your face a lift. Ultrafine needles are attached to hand-controlled tools to make tiny strokes in the skin. For a more defined form and richer appearance, dermatologists use semi-permanent pigment that matches your natural eyebrow color to fill in the strokes.
You will need to return to the technician four to six weeks following the initial consultation for a touch-up. Aside from that, the system requires little to no maintenance. Depending on the type of skin you have, microblading results can last up to three years. Professionals suggest a touch-up every 12 to 18 months to maintain your brows appearing fresh and thick.
Researchers are inventing treatments to give people smoother and younger-looking skin as the skincare market continues to flourish. If you have precancerous growths on your body or acne scars, you can pay a medical spa practitioner or a dermatologist to treat your body’s blemishes. Age-defying technology is the new frontier, so it’s time to wave goodbye to being limited to moisturizers and sunscreens.
