How Aging Affects the Face

Signs of aging may be more visible on the face than any other area of the body. Facial rejuvenation is a strategy using a variety of treatments to combat a variety of forces at work in an aging face. Here are some of the factors that may accelerate facial aging:

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 skincare disorders, acne, and chicken pox, which may produce scarring.
Miscellaneous physiological functions can produce freckling pigmentation spots, dry spots, broken capillaries, and hyperpigmentation from hormonal changes (which may be induced by pregnancy or birth control medications).
Genetics.

Facial rejuvenation can mean different things to different people. There are non-invasive and minimally invasive treatments and procedures used to improve slight facial imperfections. There are plastic surgery procedures that can dramatically improve the appearance of the face. All of these are forms of facial rejuvenation. The most successful approach may be a combination of procedures and treatments for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation strategy.

Facial Bones Change with Age

A recent ASPS study helped us better understand how aging affects facial bones. New information about shifting bone structure and bone loss has an impact on how plastic surgeons treat patients seeking cosmetic procedures.

Changes in Anti-Aging Skincare

Today, medical skincare is available to address the specific needs of aging people. Advances have also been made in the area of exfoliation and moisturizing to maintain skin tone and appearance. There are also nonsurgical facelift treatments available to improve skin texture, elasticity, and pigmentation. More effective treatments are becoming available for skin disorders and adult acne. Laser hair removal helps eliminate facial hair that comes with age. Micropigmentation has arrived on the consumer market to assist with hyperpigmentation (skin discoloration spots), thinned lips, and fine hair follicles. Menopause is better understood, making it easier for both patient and doctor to combat aging appearances associated with menopause. Vitamin supplements and natural healing have become popular as well.

Skin Resurfacing Treatments

Microdermabrasion, chemical peel, and laser skin resurfacing improve skin texture, the appearance of fine lines, hyperpigmentation, freckling, dry spots, and pore size. Some skin resurfacing procedures offer supplementary benefits such as reducing the appearance of broken capillaries and improving collagen production. Laser scar removal can assist with aging scars.

Dermal Fillers and Injectable types

Facial fillers such as Radiesse®, Juvéderm® Injectable Gel, and Sculptra® work to fill in furrows, wrinkles, and folds in many of the lower facial areas. Some of these fillers increase volume in hollowed or sunken facial areas. Botox releases the contraction of the muscle in order to reduce muscle-causing wrinkles in the upper facial area. Some facial injectables and fillers may provide additional anti-aging benefits as well.

There are so many facial-rejuvenation options available today, and with so many different areas of focus, a combination treatment plan may be the best way to achieve your rejuvenation goals.

Introducing the Inject-a-Lift

Long lasting facial fillers (Radiesse® and Juvéderm® Injectable Gel) in conjunction with Botox® Cosmetic are now able to achieve results previously achieved only with surgical correction. Correction of smile lines, puppet lines and lip lines, enhancing lip contour and volume, camouflaging jowling, elevating cheeks, elevating brows, and reducing forehead lines and furrows can now be successfully achieved, noninvasively, using Inject-a-Lift techniques. Dr. Funt is also able to rejuvenate your hands using Radiesse and IPL. As a medical director for Bioform Medical, the manufacturer of Radiesse, and national instructor for Allergan Corporation (the distributor of Juvéderm® Injectable Gel and Botox® Cosmetic), he is at the forefront of both the development and physician training of these noninvasive, revolumizing and rejuvenative procedures. These techniques can be employed alone or in combination with cosmetic surgery procedures to reach your aesthetic goals.
