The 5 Best Anti-Aging Procedures

People who also want to look young now have a multitude of procedures to choose from including surgical and non surgical options. Because the results will vary from person it may be best to consult a dermatologist about the best anti aging procedures Sterling Heights. 

Fractional CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing

Considered by many to be the most important medical breakthrough in skincare in several decades, fractional C02 laser skin therapy uses lasers to deliver powerful and lasting results. Essentially, the procedure involves shining beams of light at a person's skin to make tiny incisions which then use the body's natural collagen production to eliminate damage to the first layer of the skin. However, at a cost of $5000 or more per procedure this can be a costly way to get beautiful and younger looking skin

Wrinkle Injections

in 2014, the FDA approved four new injection fillers that could be inserted into the skin to replace wrinkles. Injection basically makes the face look more plump, healthy and younger. While injection fillers may eliminate wrinkles at the onset, it is important to note that they only last an average of one year. Consequently, people who want to eliminate wrinkles entirely may want to take a different approach.

Antioxidants

A multitude of new scientifc studies have shown that over-the-counter natural antioxidants can be used to treat wrinkles and other aging related skin conditions. When applied to the skin, topical antioxidents like Vitamins C and E, rejuvenate and protect the skin by neutralizing free radicals. In fact, coffee beans have been shown to provide a powerful boost to a person's face by improving the appearance of lines and wrinkles. 

Peptides:

Peptides act like botox by releasing neurotransmittrs in the skin from forming wrinkles. Many over-the-counter facial products made by companies Olay, Lumerne and Avon are made with peptides and are available at affordable prices. Best of all, they come without the potential side effects of a surgical procedure. However, not enough scientifc research has been done to determine exactly how beneficial peptides are in the anti-aging process. 

Vitamin A

Contained within vitamin A are retinoids that increase collagen production and help prevent the development of wrinkles. For the best results, a person should get their retinol through a cream or ointment that is applied to the skin instead of an oral vitamin A supplement.
