Cosmetic Surgeries for the Seasons
No matter how careful one may be in taking care of the face, age will certainly bring about multiple changes. As one ages, the face gradually loses some of its collagen, and the skin loses some of its elasticity. In addition, repeated facial expressions gradually wear lines into the face, such as a crease in the forehead between the eyes, frown lines between the nose and the mouth, laugh lines in the cheeks and crow’s feet around the eyes from squinting. The result of each of these concerns is fine lines and wrinkles, which combine to give the face an older look than it may deserve.
Because a facelift may not be for everyone, there are other cosmetic methods that can deal with these problems to create a young and newly reinvigorated look for the face without the individual having to go under the knife. Facial contouring has been so well developed in the past decade that it can bring about dramatic results in very little time and with very little pain. Most contouring procedures require less than a half hour and only some pricks with a needle.
Real Benefits of Botox & Other Treatments
Most people who try Botox in Newport Beach find that they are quite pleased with the results, yet Botox often has a bad reputation among those who have never tried it. Clearing up the miscommunication by looking at the newest research can get everyone on board and allow anyone who is dissatisfied with his or her fine lines and wrinkles to experience Botox’s amazing benefits.
For example, it has long been known that Botox paralyzes the muscles of the face to decrease the appearance of wrinkles for three or more months. However, a 2015 study in JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery showed that Botox may also improve the quality of the skin itself by improving the skin’s production of elastin and collagen. This helps turn back the clock on the life of the facial skin by improving skin elasticity.
