Wrinkle Reduction: How Does It Work?

Nothing makes a person look old like having wrinkles on their face. Thankfully, there are wrinkle treatments that are available. However, since there are so many options, it can be difficult for a person to decide the best one for them. We would love to tell you about wrinkle reduction and how it works.

The first thing that you need to do in order to begin the wrinkle reduction process is to understand that there are different types of wrinkles. They each need to be treated in a special way in order to get the best results.

Static wrinkles appear on the face as a person loses volume under their skin. When there is not as much volume under the skin, the skin starts to sag and wrinkle. Dermal fillers are a great way to address static wrinkles. With this process, special techniques are used to inject a gel-like substance under the skin to fill in the creases and wrinkles. Usually, the dermal filler contains something that is beneficial for the skin, like hyaluronic acid.

Dynamic wrinkles are the result of making facial expressions. When your skin creases time and again throughout the years as you make facial expressions, like when you smile, the skin creases and folds. In order to treat dynamic wrinkles effectively, muscle-relaxing agents are often used. They are injected directly into the facial muscles. Since the muscles cannot contract in the same way, the wrinkles disappear.

Of course, there are more invasive methods that are available for wrinkle reduction. A facelift and neck lift can be performed in order to remove excess skin. Usually, people use less invasive methods before turning to these types of procedures.

This just scratches the surface when it comes to the tools that we have available for wrinkle reduction. Other popular approaches include Venus Concept treatments, PRP therapy, and skin tightening, just to name a few more.
