When you are in your 30s and 40s, you start looking out for treatments to get rid of wrinkles and fine lines. While maintaining a dewy glow and a smooth skin may sound complicated, well-known dermatologist Dr. Jaishree Sharad is here to help. She shares the latest treatments for wrinkles and fine lines that can give the most natural looking results possible. You may just want to give them a try.
1. Botox injection
Botox injections are used to erase lines and wrinkles around the eyes, forehead and neck. Botox is a drug made from a neurotoxin which is used to reduce the appearance of the lines cosmetically. Follow these tips to help your skin heal faster after a botox.
2. Filler injections
Filler injections help reduce laugh lines and folds around the mouth. Products such as collagen and hyaluronic acid make up the filler injections that rejuvenate facial skin. The fillers add volume to the folds and creases in the areas that have lost the collagen and fat.
3. Exilis
A nonsurgical radiofrequency skin tightening called exilis is used to tighten sagging skin and reduce wrinkles and fine lines especially around the eyes and the jaw lines. The treatment reveals a refreshed and refined look and helps you maintain that youthful glow for a little longer.
4. Clear lift laser
Clear lift laser is a painless technique used to tighten skin, smooth fine lines, blend uneven pigmentation and shrink open pores. In this technique, a fractional Q-switched Nd-Yag laser is done every six weeks to tighten skin and prevent lines and wrinkles. It requires around 5-6 sessions to get the results. Also, try this easy exercise for a natural face lift.
5. PRP or vampire facelift
PRP (platelet rich plasma) or the vampire facelift is a relatively new therapy where your blood is taken and after separation of different constituents, the red cells from the plasma is re-injected into the skin. The plasma is rich in platelets and it contains growth factors which stimulate skin regeneration. As a result, skin regains its vitality, becomes smooth and also gains its elasticity. There is a visible improvement in skin colour, and risk of allergic reactions is negligible. Three sessions are repeated at an interval of 4-8 weeks.
6. Threads
As you age, you are going to lose the collagen and skin elasticity. Polydioxanone threads are absorbable threads inserted into the skin with fine needles along the jawline to give a lift to your face. They work by stimulating the body’s own collagen to produce newer collagen along the line of which they have been inserted. They dissolve in the skin within four months. After 3-4 months of the treatment, you will notice that your jaw lines are visibly tighter. You need to go for minimum three sessions at an interval of a month. However, bruising and swelling may occur and last for up to five days.
While wrinkles are unavoidable, here are ways you can delay the fine lines and take a while before you think of going for these treatments.
