Signs of aging are typically more dramatic on the face than any other area of the body, primarily because facial skin is so delicate. Some of the factors that may accelerate facial aging are:
• Exposure to sun, wind, excessive heat and cold.
• Chemical and biological pollution.
• Hormonal changes, depleted collagen production, thinning of the skin due to free radical damage, facial bone changes, and slacked facial ligaments.
• Improper daily habits in terms of skincare, diet, exercise, and cigarette smoking.
• Medical conditions including skin disorders, acne, and chicken pox, which may produce scarring.
• Genetics
What is Facial Rejuvenation?
Facial rejuvenation procedures can use a variety of cosmetic treatments to combat facial aging. Treatment plans vary widely and often include some combination of permanent and long-term plastic surgery, less invasive mid-range surgical procedures, and non-invasive temporary skin treatments.
Most Common Non-Invasive Facial Rejuvenation Procedures
A comprehensive facial treatment planmay include one or more of the these procedures:
• Injectables and fillers
• Fat fillers
• Microdermabrasion
• Chemical peel
• Laser treatments
Surgical Facility vs. a “Spa” setting
• Skin care is a specialized field, where the aesthetician performing the procedure really should be well trained about skin from the medical point of view. Misuse and improper use of materials could lead to disaster.
• Cosmetic and related dermal treatments are an extension of Dermatology. Any of the skin/beauty treatments mentioned above requires knowing the chemical formulations of the products, the accurate percentage for mixing various products and an understanding of various skin types.
• For best results, you want to make sure that your technician is highly trained and experienced. Being at a surgical facility or specialty clinic also comes in handy so you can consult with a physician for certain questions.
• Many skin rejuvenation procedures require hi-tech equipment and there are new products hitting the market every day. Some spas invest in these materials in an effort to keep pace with the latest trends, but unnecessary accidents frequently occur due to the lack of knowledge and expertise to handle these materials.
• And last but not least, certain skin conditions may be a manifestation of an internal systemic disorder or other issue. It is important that you at least receive a professional consultation before having any significant work done.
