Common Anti-Aging Treatments

Aging is a natural phenomenon that we all must go through eventually. One cannot really stop it but appearances can be maintained. It is no longer impossible to retain the same youthful beauty of your skin that you had in your younger days.

Some of the most common anti aging cosmetic treatments are:

Botulinum Toxin Therapy

Botulinum Toxin Therapy, more commonly known as Botox, Dysport or Xeomin are injections that reduce glabellar lines or more commonly known as frown lines. These are between the eyebrows and crow’s feet at the corner of the eyes. The purpose of the injections is to keep the muscles of these areas tightened. The effects may take up to a week to show up and may last for about 3 to 4 months.

Thread Lifting

Thread lifting or the barbed suture lift is another cosmetic procedure that is aimed at skin lifting. This particular procedure is not just limited to your face but can also be used to lift and sculpt skin of other areas like your breasts too. The thread lift uses a temporary medical grade suture material in order to ‘stitch-up’ your skin and tighten it. Thread lifting is more beneficial for those who have just started noticing the signs of aging or people between the ages of late 30s to their early 50s. It can be a safer alternative for those who cannot risk anesthesia required for surgical facelifts.

You can also consider the type of thread lifting you want done and not just for aging purposes. At Medical Injectables you can access three different types of thread lifts which can also be used in combinations.

Dermabrasion

 

This cosmetic procedure involves the use of a special rotating brush that removes the outer layer of skin from small areas of the face. The purpose of this treatment is to treat wrinkles, sun damage, age spots by removing the outer layer so that new and smoother skin can replace it. This new skin may take some time to completely heal, until then there may be scabbing or swelling and it can take weeks or months to see results. This may need some time so you’d probably have to take off from work or any other commitments.  Normally one treatment should suffice but people with deep scars or other deep signs of aging may need more than one session.

Microdermabrasion

Quite similar to Dermabrasion, the Microdermabrasion also removes the top most layer of the skin. However it doesn’t use a rotating brush, rather a special machine spray to spray tiny particles on the skin. This spray is less abrasive and the healing time is faster than the rotating brush. You may however need several sessions in order to achieve the desired results.

Chemical Peels

This procedure also involves removing the outer layer of skin to remove age spots, wrinkles and other issues. However it requires using an acid to peel off the skin therefore it may take some time to heal and you may experience skin redness for a week or two before you see any results.

Dermal Fillers

Fillers, as the name implies, are substances that are injected within your skin in order to fill out the wrinkles and lines. These include collagen fillers, hyaluronic acid gel and fats. Fillers can be used on lips, face and hands and moreover they don’t need time to appear. The results will be visible right away and they may last for 2 months to 3 years depending upon the injections. The injections of your own fat may last way longer than Collagen fillers.

For safe and effective facelift dermal fillers you can find the best medical professionals at Capitis Medical & Aesthetics that can craft out the best treatment for your skin.

Laser treatments

Laser treatments like Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing or Non Ablative Skin Rejuvenation are also an option. The Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing procedure may use special lasers that damage deep layers of skin in order to stimulate new cell growth and younger-looking skin. This treatment however may take time to heal. Comparatively the Non Ablative Skin Rejuvenation procedure may use lasers that do not remove the outer layers of skin and therefore may require less recovery time. Though, the results may take some time to appear.

Conclusion

Anti-Aging treatment or procedures are the new cosmetic trend that is used by many not just for their aging benefits but also in order to achieve the perfect look of your skin that you have always desired to have.

Other non cosmetic ways of anti aging treatment can be through the use of medicinal cannabis.

Medical and Recreational customers can consult Doctor’s Orders in order to fully understand the usage and benefits of medicinal cannabis.
