We all want to look younger and well rested. By using skin treatments and injectables, plastic surgeons help patients avoid surgery and still regain their youthful appearance. Non-invasive cosmetic procedures appeal to those patients who want to improve their appearance without the risk of complications or recovery time needed with more invasive plastic surgery treatments.
These days, everyone freely admits if they have had cosmetic surgery, but not long ago it was seen to be embarrassing to admit to having cosmetic surgery of any kind - the world has changed dramatically. In the field of plastic surgery, non-surgical procedures are one of the fastest growing areas. Non-invasive procedures target the problematic areas of the face and body that may make you look old and tired. While the results are often temporary, these procedures are very effective in the short term.
For a variety of reasons, patients may choose non-invasive alternatives over surgery. First of all, most of these treatments are very affordable. While surgery may be out of your budget, injectables or surface treatments are relatively inexpensive. Second, recovery requires little to no downtime. Those of us with jobs know how difficult it can be to get time off of work. Most of these procedures are done in very little time at the office and patients are able to immediately return to their normal routine. Finally, there is the reduced risk and the safety factor. Compared to surgery, this type of cosmetic procedure presents very few complications. And if you are not happy with the results, they will eventually wear off.
The two main types of non-invasive procedures include injectables and surface treatments. Typically, injectables are used to plump up the face in an effort to reduce wrinkles and fine lines. Laser treatments and chemical peels are surface treatments that target wrinkle reduction. Botox is the most popular non-invasive treatment choice for patients. A purified, natural protein, it is injected into the brow area where facial lines and wrinkles exist.
Physicians use it to smooth the lines between your brows that develop over time - those deep, persistent lines. The facial muscles that cause those lines to form will relax for up to four months with only a few tiny injections. The results are dramatic and apparent within days. The best part is, patients are able to return to normal activity almost immediately after receiving the injections.
By plumping the skin, facial fillers replace volume that is lost due to the natural process of aging. These injectables smooth wrinkles and restore the youthful contour of your face.
Laser treatments help reduce the signs of aging, and are another popular non-invasive cosmetic procedure. One procedure that smooths the facial skin and in some cases, can improve the firmness of skin, is called laser skin resurfacing.
A chemical peel evens out skin tone affected by age, sun damage, or acne. Younger, smoother skin is created by this procedure which uses a chemical solution to remove the damaged outer layers of your skin. The look of wrinkles, freckles, scars, fine lines and sun-damage can all be improved by this procedure.
Cosmetic procedures vary. It is clear that there are many means to make you look and feel more beautiful and youthful. The good news is that you no longer have to break the bank to get your own treatment.
