Beauty enhancements designed to turn back the hands of time used to be a hush-hush subject often whispered only between the closest of friends. Thankfully, the days of being concerned about “having work done” are increasingly becoming a thing of the past. Looking your youthful best is all about feeling confident at any age, and with so many options to choose from, there’s a procedure for nearly every beauty concern.
Freeze frown lines. Popular muscle relaxers like Botox and Dysport are used in many cases to treat and prevent wrinkles and expression lines. These noninvasive injections can help to reduce the appearance of forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet. The procedure itself can be brief, with minimal discomfort, and results usually last anywhere from four to six months.
Restore youthful contours. As we age, our facial features begin to lose volume, resulting in a loss of radiance and elasticity. Injectable hyaluronic acid-based fillers are an effective option for replenishing volume, while also decreasing the appearance of wrinkles and expression lines.
Results typically last for three to six months, depending on the location of the injection and the type of filler. A bonus? Research indicates hyaluronic acid injections may also stimulate collagen production, leading to a naturally refreshed appearance. Popular options include products under the brand names Restylane and Juvederm.
Plump your smile. Volume loss and lines around the mouth are among the earliest signs of aging. Both may be easily remedied with hyaluronic acid-based injectable fillers. Whether you were born with thin lips or have noticed a diminishing fullness due to the passage of time, lip fillers can improve facial balance, smooth lines, and wrinkles around the mouth, and give you a more confident smile.
Resurface and refine your complexion. Age spots, blemishes, fine lines, and wrinkles are common issues as we age. A chemical peel can be used to exfoliate and retexturize your skin by removing the outer layers to reveal more youthful, glowing countenance. Chemical peels can also help to improve acne or acne scarring, erase pigmentation problems, and significantly smooth rough or sun-damaged skin.
Cosmetic enhancements to restore your youthful glow no longer require nips, tucks or extensive downtime. Lunch-hour procedures that fit into your busy day offer numerous benefits with none of the stigmas. At the end of the day, it is your confidence and happiness that matters above all.
