How to Shed Years off Your Skin – Best Skin Treatments

Getting older has its benefits. As the years go by we get wiser, our self-esteem improves and we get to feel more comfortable in our own skin. However, there is one thing we could do without, and that is looking older. This is why we dedicate time and money to different anti-aging creams, moisturizers and masks, never being quite sure if they actually work or not, always looking for new, more potent options.

The truth is that different products might help slow down the aging process of our skin, but the best results come from skin treatments performed by skilled professionals. So in this article we will present the most effective skin treatments that can help you stop the clock and maintain that youthful look for years to come.

Laser skin resurfacing

If your skin has faced such opponents as aging, acne, or too much sun exposure and they have left your face with blotches, wrinkles, lines and even scars, opting for laser skin resurfacing is the right treatment for you. It is aimed at helping your skin look younger and healthier. This procedure removes skin, layer by layer, with extreme precision. Then the new skin cells which form during the healing process give your skin a tighter, younger looking surface.Treating just parts of the face takes about 30 to 45 minutes. A full-face treatment takes up to two hours.

Botox and Dysport

When a small wrinkle or a line you see around your eyes and mouth begins to be too distracting every time you look at yourself in a mirror, you might be ready for Botox. The main goal of these dermal filler injections is to relax the muscles that cause wrinkles such as frown line, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. This treatment has been around for over 20 years, and has an extremely high safety and efficacy profile.
Dysport is the new kid on the block and it became available on the market in 2009. This treatment is very similar to Botox, with the only difference being that Dysport is a smaller-sized molecule so its unit measurement is different. Both treatments need to be repeated every 3-6 months in order to fend off the signs of aging and keep your face nice and tight. But keep in mind that you have to do your research and find reliable skin care clinic, so that they can help you get your skin in check by prescribing the perfect treatment for you.  

The magic of peptides

Our skin is comprised mostly of collagen and it is responsible for providing foundation and thickness. Most women under thirty don’t think about skin treatments since they have ample collagen which is reflected in their smooth and tight skin. As we get older and our collagen level depletes, our skin becomes thinner and more wrinkled. When used in skin care, peptides have been proven to encourage collagen production, thus helping our skin stay younger for longer periods of time. By using skin care products that contain peptides, you are actually tricking your skin into making more collagen, thus helping it maintain its youthfulness and elasticity long after your thirties have passed. In addition, you should keep in mind that the benefits of peptides are not limited to skin care, they are also proven to be effective when it comes to weight loss, and can be valuable for your overall health.

These are just some of the treatments that can help you slow down the clock. But in order to help your skin respond well to the procedure of your choice, you need to eat well, have a high vitamin E and D intake and use proper skincare products on the daily basis. As we get older our skin will need all the help we can provide it to maintain that young and healthy glow.
