Wrinkle Treatments

By Anne Fennell


Cosmetic treatments have advanced tremendously in the recent years, particularly when it comes to the treatment for facial wrinkles. When one has wrinkles on their face, the nature of the world today looks at them like they are "older", and such a big value is placed on a youthful looking face.

What is the process of wrinkle treatments like? With so many offering the treatments, what is it you should be aware of before you opt for it? In this article, we will examine wrinkle treatments in more detail.

What goes along with receiving wrinkle treatments?

Our skin is constantly exposed to a number of toxic substances such as automobile fumes, smoke and even the warming rays of the sun, all of which can damage the skin. Wrinkles are just another name for the not very appealing lines that appear on one's face, and in the case of numerous lines, the problem is just compounded.

Wrinkle treatments are aimed at removal of wrinkles using a certain toxin called botulinum toxin. Other treatments can include chemical peels, laser treatments and even just plain old skin creams. With all of these processes to be chosen from, it looks as if botox is becoming more well known all the time. We see ads for products on the market constantly, but the truth is that anti-wrinkle creams can only do so much to make wrinkles less noticeable.

Which of the available treatments will have the most benefit?

At this time, this can not be answered with a high degree of certainty. Everyone is different, so the treatments chosen are tailored to the specific needs of the patient. The effectiveness of treatments using botox injections or other dermal fillers is well known, so more and more people appear to be choosing this method.

What is the average length of the effects?

This depends on the type of treatment patients decide to have. The amount of time that a skin cream will be noticeable is not long, and daily use may not even make a big difference. The effects of dermal fillers such as botox treatments last for months, as these methods are superior.

Price of treatment compared to effectiveness

This kind of advanced facial wrinkle treatment can't be bought with pocket change. The process chosen and the treatment provider are the deciding factors in cost, it can be around $300 or even up to $3000 or more, as these advanced treatments take specialized equipment, materials, and training. If someone doesn't mind applying skin creams every day and buying more often, this is an option for some. After a period of time, the proper cost of treatments and the results obtained can be measured more accurately. It looks like for treatment of facial wrinkles, dermal fillers such as botox treatments are the most economical, in the big picture. CO2 lasers are touted by certain physicians as being the treatments that are most cost effective.

Recovery time after treatment

There are no side effects to recover from when using skin creams, no healing required. Microdermabrasion looks right now to likely be the quickest healing procedure of the specialized treatments available. This of course does not mean that it is the greatest treatment available, or that patients prefer the treatment process any more, as it is reported to be kind of unpleasant.

Synopsis

Wrinkle treatments for facial wrinkles are many. Each of them has their own upsides and downsides. The ultimate choice will depend on the patient, what they can afford, what they are prepared to undergo and the experience of the treating healthcare professional.
