Laser and fat injections
Fine lines and wrinkles are the result
of ageing and accumulated skin damage. Excessive
exposure to sun, smoking and bad diet can
also exacerbate the natural ageing process
resulting in premature ageing.
Advances in technology have created a range
of treatments to combat wrinkles. Expert
knowledge and careful assessment will guarantee
the best results.
Laser skin resurfacing is becoming the
most popular form of wrinkle control. During
the procedure, a laser is used to deliver
a precise pulse of energy to remove the
outer skin wrinkle layer, allowing the regrowth
of healthy skin with better alignment of
collagen fibres. The laser can be applied
to specific areas, such as under the eyes
or upper lip, or used on the entire face.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) and erbium lasers are
the most popular laser used in facial resurfacing.
Chemical peels and dermabrasion are also
used in wrinkle control.
During a chemical peel, one of several
chemicals of varying strength is applied
to the skin removing the epidermis and penetrating
the dermis.
Dermabrasion is often used to smoothe deeper
scars and wrinkles. A high-speed rotating
brush is used to slough off layers of skin
to achieve the desired effect.
Before embarking on laser resurfacing,
chemical peels or dermabrasion your surgeon
will discuss the best option for you. Each
procedure has differing recovery times.
Injections are fast becoming a popular
method of wrinkle control with the added
incentive of it being a quick, easy treatment
that can be carried out during a lunch-break.
A muscle relaxant can be injected into
the muscle. The procedure is often used
to reduce crows’ feet or frown lines,
typically between the eyebrows. Injections
can also be used to enhance the results
of an eyebrow
lift.
Another procedure used to combat wrinkles
is fat injection. This involves using the
patients own fat, which is injected into
facial grooves and depressions. Because
fat has variable longevity, the procedure
must be performed with special care to ensure
the maximum benefits.
