Beauty 9 Procedures That Postpone Facelift 1:56 PM 9 Procedures That Postpone Facelift Have you ever touched your face and wondered where the suppleness has gone? Our face loses elasticity as we age. As a result, our skin develops wrinkles around our eyes, forehead, and mouth due to the loss of collagen and firmness. The definition of our chin and neck is lost as well. Often, one will consider having a facelift to correct these issues. But how do you avoid needing a facelift surgery when you're uncomfortable with it or if it's out of your budget?You can do a few less invasive procedures to postpone having a surgical facelift. Many of these skincare treatments are offered at medical spas like Broadway Skin Essentials, a denver skin care specialist. Here we will look at some of the procedures. 1. Botox and Dermal Fillers Botox and dermal fillers, when applied correctly, help postpone a facelift. Botox is a neurotoxin used to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It's injected into targeted areas to relax the muscle tissue, temporarily preventing it from contracting and forming wrinkles. Dermal facial fillers are gel-like substances, such as collagen, hyaluronic acid, and calcium hydroxyapatite, injected into the skin. Botox and dermal filler procedures postpone facelifts by restoring lost volume, softening creases, smoothing out lines, and enhancing facial contours.Botox 2. Microdermabrasion helps postpone the facelift procedure Microdermabrasion is an exfoliating procedure that revitalizes your skin's appearance and smoothness by removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells and dry patches. This non-invasive treatment refines the appearance of fine lines, unclogs pores, and diminishes pore size. In addition, it improves environmental and aging damage on the skin's surface, thus delaying the need for a facelift.Microdermabrasion3. Retin-A Retin-A is a prescription-strength Vitamin A proven to reverse the signs of aging, boost collagen production, smooth skin tone, and unclog pores. Retin-A helps your skin store collagen and hyaluronic acid, resulting in a firmer and fuller appearance. It also works to slow down the rate of collagen loss, which helps delay the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 4. Intense Pulse Light Treatments Using powerful light technology, IPL treatments (Intense Pulse Light Treatments) work to correct pigmentation, blotchiness, redness, and fine lines. The pulsed light heats deep layers of the skin to create a natural healing process that results in collagen production. The subtle results mimic a facelift and can be used on the entire face. As a result, IPL treatments give you a more youthful appearance without undergoing a facelift procedure. IP 5. Microneedling Microneedling is a collagen induction therapy. It uses a device with fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. The micro-fine hands range in size from 0.5 to 2.5 millimeters. After just a few sessions of microneedling in Denver, CO, or at any derma clinic of your choice, the procedure visibly reduces the signs of fine lines, crow's feet, deep wrinkles, and discoloration spots on the face.In addition, the downtime after a micro-needling session is very minimal.Microneedling 6. Micro Fat Grafts Micro fat grafting is a technique that transfers fat from one area of the body to areas experiencing skin sagging.It utilizes micro lipo-aspiration to remove fat from areas of the body with excess fat, like the stomach region. It is then purified and reinjected into facial areas that require plumping. It addresses volume loss in the face as well as wrinkles.Micro fat graft 7. Chemical Peels Chemical peels are a facial treatment that uses a cosmetic grade acid solution to remove dry, damaged skin on the face's surface. These facial peels enhance and smooth the skin's texture while treating skin discoloration, wrinkles, and blemishes, postponing the signs of aging to appear.Facial peel 8. Sunscreen Wearing a protective sunscreen on your face helps prevent damage from harmful UV rays. The higher the SPF, the better. Sun damage can cause premature aging, skin tone discoloration, sagging skin, and free radicals. All of which make your face look older than it should. Make sure to always wear sunscreen when you are outdoors. 9. Skincare Products Use skin care products that increase collagen production. Collagen helps to promote glowing skin, making your face appear healthy and youthful. It's a protein in our body that gives our skin strength and elasticity. But unfortunately, as we get older, collagen production in our body slows down. So using a quality skin care product that promotes collagen production benefits the skin, delays aging, and reduces the need for a facelift.Skincare products About the Doctor Dr. Andrew Jacono, MD, is one of New York's premier plastic surgeons, known for his skilled approach to non-surgical and minimally invasive facial rejuvenation.

Beauty 5 Simple Tips For Younger Looking Skin 8:00 AM 5 Simple Tips For Younger Looking Skin Are you noticing white hair, age spots, wrinkles, or fine lines around your face?Relax. Aging is inevitable, so fighting it is futile. But that doesn't mean you should stop caring about your health and look.You can still look younger than your age and feel better about yourself.Here are five simple tips to achieve younger-looking skin and age gracefully. 1. Get help from science. Wrinkles appear because your skin elasticity declines over time.Millions of dollars have been spent on scientific research to help you get younger-looking skin.Find a reputable brand and check out their anti-aging skincare product line. Cosmetic companies like Dermaclara have developed various anti-aging products that can improve your skin’s imperfections, ranging from wrinkles to stretch marks. Their Advanced Silicone Fusion Treatment reduces the appearance of wrinkles. It’s easy to apply and make it part of your daily skincare routine.Take supplements that can aid in slowing down the aging process and help prevent wrinkles. Read customer testimonials online, like Nucific reviews, and decide which anti-aging product would work best for you. 2. Avoid excessive sun exposure. Long periods of exposure to direct sunlight can cause wrinkles.It may be time to give up sunbathing.Stop spending long hours gardening or doing outdoor activities when the sun is at its harshest.Using sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 is recommended by most dermatologists, as it blocks 97% of the sun's UVB rays.Apply sunscreen a half-hour before going outdoors and reapply after two hours. 3. Stop smoking. Cigarette smoking causes wrinkles because it reduces the blood supply to the skin and depletes oxygen levels.Cannabis smoking may also cause wrinkles. This surprises many people because cannabis is sometimes used in beauty products. While cannabis-infused creams have an anti-aging effect, smoking can have the opposite effect.Understanding the Effects of Cannabis on Your Skin on the Merry Jane website explains: “Collagen, a structural protein responsible for your skin’s health, must be developed to keep your skin looking youthful. THC smoke blocks the development of these proteins, leading to your skin aging more quickly.” 4. Follow a healthy lifestyle. Four parts of your lifestyle that greatly affect the skin are sleep, hydration, diet, and exercise. Get enough sleep.Sleep provides numerous benefits, including skin improvement. When you don’t get enough sleep, you’ll have too much cortisol, the stress hormone, which damages skin cells. If you get enough sleep, your body will produce more human growth hormone (HGH), and your skin will be more elastic and less prone to wrinkling. Drink more water.Water hydrates your skin and makes it more elastic. Once cells lose their elasticity, wrinkles start to surface.Drink water to look younger. That's easy enough to remember. Eat veggies.The best foods to eat for younger-looking skin are vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds. They are packed with antioxidants that can counter the effects of aging. Exercise more. Exercise reduces the stress hormone cortisol. Stress can make you frown, lose sleep, and cause wrinkles.When you exercise, your body sweats and releases toxins.Working out also improves and regulates blood and endorphin circulation. All these benefits of exercise have a direct effect on skin health. 5. Proper skincare routine. Are you overdoing skin cleansing? While there are many steps to a good skincare routine, the biggest mistake is in washing the face. Overwashing can strip your skin of natural oils that keep the skin moist and elastic. Instead of using harsh soaps, use a cleanser. After washing your face, use a toner and apply a moisturizer. Check out Dr. Anthony Youn's recommended morning skincare routine.
