Millions of people have some type of surgical skin treatment performed every year for various reasons like sun damage, scars due to acne or trauma, dry skin, and lines and wrinkles. Although procedures for these conditions are popular, some people prefer to have their skin treated in a way that does not involve surgery.
Surgery carries certain risks due to sedation, incisions, and complications. It can also be somewhat expensive compared to other treatments. Non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment methods are growing in popularity due to these concerns.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels are a popular skin rejuvenation treatment method that does not involve surgery. The treatment involves applying a topical agent containing some form of acid to the face.
The strength of each particular chemical peel depends upon the type of acid used in the individual formulation. Some peels are mild and offer subtle results without any downtime, while stronger peels may require some downtime, but give more dramatic results.
Regardless of the particular strength of a given chemical peel, all peels essentially work the same. They strip away the outer layer of skin to varying degrees, which encourages your body to replace that old skin with new, more youthful skin that displays fewer signs of lines, wrinkles, scars, and discoloration.
Laser Treatments
Laser skin rejuvenation treatments involve using lasers to treat the outer layers of skin and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential building blocks of healthy, youthful-looking skin.
These treatments involve little to no downtime, depending on the method used. They are capable of lessening the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, minimizing the appearance of sun damage, reducing redness, and much more. The results of laser treatments develop gradually over the course of the following weeks and months as your skin resurfaces.
Dermal Fillers
Treatment with dermal fillers is a great choice if you have been experiencing a loss of facial volume with the appearance of hollowed, sunken cheeks. They contain various ingredients that are injected into your face in order to fill out your face and smooth away fine lines and wrinkles.
The majority of dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid, which increases the water intake of skin cells. So, each individual skin cell will appear more plump. You can expect to have more hydrated skin that is smoother and more radiant.
