Getting through the day can take a toll on our skin. Over time, our skin begins to reflect the enormous everyday stressors of our lives—even the years we’ve already made it through.

Should I Get Facial Rejuvenation?

The question you may be asking yourself now is, “Should I get facial rejuvenation?” You’re not alone. Many women and men struggle to find the right timing and right cosmetic treatment to help rejuvenate and refresh their appearance. Some think that getting the treatment too soon is a waste of time, while others are afraid if they wait too long, their concerns will be too severe to treat.

The truth is the best time for you to get rejuvenation treatment is when you have concerns about your appearance that affect your happiness and/or quality of life.

Two of the most typical reasons that our patients consider facial rejuvenation include:

Fine Lines and Wrinkles

Fine lines and wrinkles are an inescapable part of the aging experience. The most common wrinkles include frown lines, wrinkles on the forehead, between the brows, around the nose and mouth, and along the chin. Wrinkles form when collagen production within the skin begins to decrease.

For treating fine lines and wrinkles, the most popular facial rejuvenation treatment is dermal fillers or Botox.

Dermal fillers help restore your skin’s youthful radiance by adding back volume to the skin with a gel-like substance made of hyaluronic acid.

Botox helps smooth away unwanted lines and wrinkles by disrupting the signal in the muscles that cause the skin to contract, effectively stopping the wrinkles from forming. They also work as an excellent preventative treatment.
