It’s only human nature to be curious about how to regain your youth. As we age, we start noticing our bodies and appearance changing, starting with lines, wrinkles and imperfections around the face. There’s no reason to go to extremes when chasing the fountain of youth. Skin rejuvenation techniques have become minimally invasive, and don’t require extensive recovery. Here’s everything you need to know about the procedures that will leave you looking more youthful and refreshed.
What is Skin Rejuvenation?
Skin rejuvenation is a general term for any cosmetic procedure or treatment that helps to diminish signs of aging. While usually, this involves the help of lasers or chemical peels, sometimes skin rejuvenation can be as simple as a medical-grade skincare routine. Your skin rejuvenation technique is made specifically for you based on your skin’s conditions and sensitivities, and your desired results.
What Types of Skin Rejuvenation Are There?
Now that you know what skin rejuvenation entails, you’re probably wondering what kind of treatments are available to help rejuvenate your skin. The following are some of our more popular skin rejuvenation treatments patients swear by.
Skin Resurfacing
If you’re concerned about fine lines, wrinkles, pigment and mild scarring on the face, skin resurfacing may be the right treatment for you. During your appointment, a topical numbing cream will be applied before your treatment. There are a variety of resurfacing treatments available that will be customized to your skin’s needs including microneedling, Profound with radiofrequency, Ultherapy® with micro-focused ultrasound technology and the IPL Photofacial. Each treatment offers minimal downtime and recovery.
Dermal Fillers and Injectables
Dermal fillers and injectables have become a go-to treatment for many of our patients over the years. These treatments provide immediate results to smooth out lines and wrinkles around the face for months at a time. Treatment sessions take as little as 30 minutes and patients are able to resume their day as normal following their appointments.
CO2RE®
The CO2RE® fractional CO2 laser treatment is the most intense of these skin rejuvenation treatments. This skin resurfacing technique emits an invasive, ablative fractional CO2 laser to penetrate the superficial, middle and deep layers of skin to reduce the appearance of your fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, acne, scarring, and enlarged pores. While treatment sessions are a little longer and recovery is a little more intensive, patients are thrilled with their results.
