Wrinkles and fine lines
We can not escape it. Time does its work and leaves its traces everywhere on the body. A real showcase shaped by time, the face bears witness to our joys, sorrows and frustrations. Wrinkles then appear.
They can be separated into two categories: expression lines and aging lines. Expression lines are manifested by repeated muscle contractions when we show a facial expression. They disappear during muscle relaxation. Over time, or if the muscle force exerted is strong, expression lines can become permanent.
Aging wrinkles appear with age. Aging causes a loss of collagen and elasticity, preventing the skin from returning to its normal appearance after muscle contraction. Aging is also encouraged by the loss of water content in the skin.
Also, factors like genetics and smoking contribute greatly to the development of fine lines and wrinkles in individuals.
The best treatment available to treat fine lines and wrinkles and improve the appearance of the skin is the strategic injection of neuromodulators. The neuro-modulator prevents signaling between the nerve and the muscle, partially or completely inhibiting muscle contraction of the targeted muscle.
The most frequent issues are:
- The lion's wrinkle (vertical or horizontal line between the eyebrows)
- Crow's feet
- The “bunny” lines (on the sides of the nose)
- The “gummy” smile (when the smile is pronounced and shows the gum in an exaggerated way)
- The "brow" lift (a special injection technique that raises the eyebrow which tends to sag over time)
- The folds of the forehead
- Neck wrinkles
- The “cellulite” of the chin
- The perioral wrinkles (smoker's wrinkles)
When wrinkles are too deep, it may be necessary to inject a dermal filler to fill the hollow created by the wrinkle and make it disappear completely.
For best results, it is essential to not only treat wrinkles, but also to focus on the appearance of the skin. Micro-needling, PRP, laser (BBL or HALO) can help to rejuvenate the appearance of the skin and give you back a healthy and radiant air.
