If you live in Austin, Texas, you know that the hot Texas heat can take a toll on your skin. Aging skin treatments are becoming increasingly popular as the technology in this field advances. There is a benefit to looking more youthful. For one thing, our society expects us to take the best possible care of ourselves. However, it’s equally important that we feel good about how we look.
Let’s dive in and learn what you can do via nonsurgical facial rejuvenation procedures.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Microneedling
When our skin heals, and we get an infusion of our blood plasma, our skin is naturally rejuvenated. To encourage new collagen and elastin production, a practitioner will use microneedling and platelet-rich fibrin (sometimes called platelet-rich plasma or PRP) to stimulate rejuvenation. The micro injuries caused by the microneedling allows your skin to take up the growth factors from your blood plasma and can have lasting effects after just one treatment.
What can be treated with microneedling and PRP? The below skin issues can benefit from this revolutionary process.
- Acne scars
- Wrinkles
- Sunspots
- Sun damage
- Skin folds
- Dark circles
- Discolorations
The treatment takes approximately one hour and a minimum of three treatments is recommended to achieve the best results. A topical anesthetic is applied to help minimize the discomfort during the procedure. The healing process can take up to a few days but positive effects can be noted within the first week. The treatments are also spaced out about 4-6 weeks to allow your skin to fully heal.
SmoothLase
The SmoothLase procedure involves using the Fotona Lightwalker, an FDA-approved treatment that tightens your skin’s collagen. Because it brings back your skin’s natural elasticity, your skin creates new collagen and gives your facial skin a tighter look.
Your skin will have fewer deep folds and wrinkles, and you will love the youthful fill and look you get from this procedure.
