Rejuvenation is the dream of many. After all, everyone wants to look fresh and beautiful, not only in their youth. And rejuvenation is often associated with plastic surgery. In fact, there are options on how to become younger and more beautiful without surgery. I listed useful methods for aif.ru cosmetologist, plastic surgeon Zuhra Balakerimova.
Aging is a natural process that inevitably leaves its marks on our face. One of its most noticeable signs is the so-called “ptotic face,” when facial tissues, as if under the influence of gravity, begin to “slide from top to bottom.” Drooping eyelids, sagging temples, sagging cheeks, drooping corners of the lips, jowls, a double chin and wrinkles in the décolleté are all signs of age-related changes that can cause discomfort and make us feel less attractive.
Replenishing lost volumes with fillers
With age, subcutaneous fat located in the temples, cheeks and nasolabial folds decreases, which leads to sagging of facial tissues and loss of clear contours. In this case, the use of fillers based on hyaluronic acid allows you to restore lost volumes and restore youth and freshness to your face. Filler injections into the temporal area help lift the eyebrows and eyelids, making the look more open and expressive. Replenishing volume in the cheek area allows you to return them to a rounded shape and remove signs of fatigue. And injections of fillers into the nasolabial folds smooth out wrinkles and reduce their severity. It is important to note that when using fillers, it is necessary to observe moderation and not overdo it in order to avoid an unnatural result and the effect of a “pumped” face. The goal is not to increase volume, but to restore it, returning the face to its natural contours and proportions.
Laser liposuction
Double chins and jowls are common problems that can significantly age the face and make it less attractive. Fat deposits often accumulate in these areas, which cannot be corrected through diet and exercise. In this case, laser liposuction can be an effective solution – a minimally invasive procedure when, under the influence of a laser, fat cells are destroyed and removed from the body naturally. Laser liposuction is characterized by minimal tissue trauma, a short rehabilitation period and high precision, which allows you to model the contours of the face and neck and achieve the desired results. With the help of laser liposuction, you can eliminate fat deposits in the double chin area, correct the lower jaw line and reduce the severity of jowls, thereby significantly rejuvenating your face and making it clearer and tighter.
Botulinum therapy
Botox is a neurotoxin that temporarily blocks the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscles, which leads to their relaxation and smoothing of wrinkles. Botox injections into the upper third of the face help relieve tension from the muscles responsible for the formation of wrinkles on the forehead, between the eyebrows and around the eyes. In addition, Botox can be used to relax the platysma, a muscle located in the neck that pulls facial tissue toward the décolleté. Relaxing the platysma helps to tighten the oval of the face and improve its contours, as well as reduce the severity of wrinkles on the neck and décolleté.
Additionally, Botox can be used to relax the muscles in the shoulder girdle, resulting in a “Barbie neck” effect in which the neck becomes longer, more graceful, and posture more straight. As a result of Botox injections, the face looks fresher and younger, and the figure acquires more harmonious proportions.
Hardware procedures
In addition to injection techniques, various hardware procedures are also used to correct age-related changes aimed at improving skin quality and tightening muscles. This could be, for example, microneedling – a procedure that stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which helps tighten the skin and smooth out wrinkles. Microneedles create microdamages on the surface of the skin, which trigger the processes of regeneration and cell renewal. As a result, the skin becomes firmer, more elastic and radiant. In addition, microneedling helps tighten facial muscles, which helps improve facial contours and reduce signs of ptosis.
