What treatments are available for the signs of facial aging?
The 3 major types of facial rejuvenation can be classified as resurfacing, facial
injectables, and surgery.
|
Facial resurfacing works by modifying the surface of the skin to correct visible
signs of sun damage, such as fine lines, irregular pigmentation, and blemishes. Some
common techniques are chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and laser resurfacing.
|
Facial injectables include a broad range of substances that are administered by
injection to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles and restore facial contours.
These include toxins, traditional fillers, and collagen replacers, and each treatment
works differently.
|
Facial plastic surgery is usually the most invasive type of rejuvenation and includes
a wide range of procedures — most of which are used to lift sagging skin, remove
excess fat, or fill hollows. The most popular surgical options for facial rejuvenation
are liposuction, face-lift, and fat transfer.

Ask your doctor for more information about these procedures.
