The Wrinkle Treatment That Will Work for You.

By A Hannifudin

As we grow old, our skin also starts aging. It becomes loose and full of wrinkles especially around the face and neck. The skin loses its the charm and firmness that it had when we were young.

Today, the markets are flooded with various wrinkle treatments to tackle this problem. Besides facelift, there are many other ways to make the skin around face and neck tighter and to bring back the former charm.

The texture and the fineness of the skin change as it gets older. This is because the dead skin cells are not removed from the skin and may block the new skin from coming out. The longer the dead skin cells stay on the skin, the older the skin appears. Skin needs to be rejuvenated in order to make the skin looks improved and young again. Wrinkle treatments can do the work of eliminating the excess fats and sagging of the skin that makes your skin look older.

The kinds of wrinkle treatments:

1) Laser treatment or the laser resurfacing is one of the treatments available for wrinkles. This can treat people with dynamic wrinkles or the wrinkles that many people develop because of the facial expression they keep using in their day-to-day life. These expressions make the skin fold that leads to formation of wrinkles at older age.

This kind of wrinkle treatment will not last a lifetime or even a year. The treatment will remove the wrinkles but the wrinkles are expected to come back after a couple of months as an effect of daily facial expressions that are impossible to avoid. A follow up laser treatment is essential to maintain the freshness of the skin without the spots of wrinkles.

The primary objective of the laser treatment is to take away the skin cells that have been damaged, either by sunlight, pollution, or chemicals usually found in make-ups, creams, and cosmetic products. But the treatment will not ensure that the wrinkles will be totally removed forever; it still has the possibility to come back which means another treatment is needed. To avoid frequent treatment, lessen the exposure to sunlight and other chemicals.

2) Another popular treatment is facelift. People with heavy wrinkles that resemble folded skin due to sagging often use this method. In this method, the skin is pulled back to its original place making the skin tight. This method again is not a permanent cure. The old wrinkles are treated but with time the skin will again start sagging and new wrinkles will start appearing. It will not be long before the patient will require another facelift to treat it again.

3) Another form of wrinkle treatment is the use of creams and other products that are purposely formulated to remove wrinkles or to fight aging. Some are Botox, Collagen injection, anti-aging creams, anti-wrinkle creams, chemical peels, dermabrasion, and Thermage. These products require more than one treatment but it can help you a lot in your struggle of removing the wrinkles from your face. - 17943
