Lose the Wrinkles and Look Younger

By Anne Fennell


Cosmetic treatments have advanced tremendously in the recent years, particularly when it comes to the treatment for facial wrinkles. No one wants to be though of as "old" but sadly in this world, having younger looking skin is very important and if there are visible wrinkles others will not find a person as attractive.

But what do wrinkle treatments involve? There are a lot of choices in where to receive these procedures, but what should a person know when considering treatment? Here we take a closer look at wrinkle treatments in general.

Exactly what is involved when getting 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.

Removing wrinkles is achieved by using botulinum toxin, as it is an effective wrinkle treatment. 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. There are those who use less effective products such as anti-wrinkle creams that have expensive ad campaigns backing them.

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. From the available data and result, it appears that dermal fillers and botox injection have very good results, which is probably why they are so popular.

What is the average length of the effects?

The effects correlate to the particular treatment that is provided. The limited effects of a product like a skin cream will last for a brief period, but generally it isn't all that effective even when used frequently. Botox injections are a dermal filler option that will typically last for months on end.

The comparison of cost and results

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. Creams are obviously a lot cheaper but require more regular application, meaning they need to be purchased a lot more often. Treatments over time can be more closely examined, and the cost effectiveness of each one can be determined. It looks like for treatment of facial wrinkles, dermal fillers such as botox treatments are the most economical, in the big picture. Some physicians believe that the CO2 laser is the most cost effective measure.

Recovery time after treatment

No recovery time is necessary for skin creams. Of all the treatments on the market, microdermabrasion is looking to be the most speedy recovery when treating wrinkles. Just because it is the fastest, doesn't necessarily mean it is the most effective or the treatment that patients have the easiest time enduring.

Synopsis

Wrinkle treatments for facial wrinkles are many. These different treatments have pros and cons that must be weighed by the patient. There are many factors to consider, including cost, the type of treatment and the comfort of the process itself, and the experience and professional nature of the treatment provider.
