What are the Commonest Procedures for Facial Rejuvenation Treatment?
Some of the commonest options of removing facial scars, wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, and other skin imperfections are Botox, soft tissue fillers and chemical peels. The Botox injections are affordable and come with very few risks. They are efficient in smoothening neck, brow, and wrinkles on the face. Botox requires no recovery time.
Soft tissue fillers involve the use of injection of soft tissues under the skin, to add some weight to the cheekbone, and improve your jawline. They can eliminate acne scars, re-sculpt your lips and fill in those lines running from the side of nostrils to the mouth corners. These fillers often contain hyaluronic acid or Poly-L-Lactic acid that can be absorbed by the body.
Chemical peels can be used in eliminating age spots, wrinkles, and discoloration. Chemicals used in this case could be glycolic, Trichloroacetic acid or Salicylic acid. When applied to the skin, they can dissolve the affected skin layers and remove the top skin layer to reveal newer and more radiant skin.
