Most people ae living longer, healthier, and overall better lives than their
counterparts of the past, and they want their physical appearance to reflect
that. The skin is usually wear signs of aging are the most noticebale, but
fortunately, options exist for those seeking to retain as youthful appearance
as possible. Effective skin treatements depend on many separate factors.
The age of the patient, amount of sun damage sustained by the skin over the
course of time, the overall health of the patient, and personal needs and
preferences all play a part in determining which type of of skin treatment in
Walnut Creek is best suited for the situation.
Creams and lotions are available that help to minimize the look of lines and
wrinkles. Some work by simply plumping up the skin a bit, while others have
ingredients that work as exfoliation agents. retinoid based creams and lotions
do a particularly good job of sloughing off excees skin cells and producing a
brighter, fresher appearance on the surface of the skin. Topical skin
treatments containing peptides have also been found to decrease the look of
wrinkles and lines as well, but they may be better for lighter use because they
may not be as effective as those containing retinol. However, because some
people experience skin irritation as a result of using retinol products, those
containing peptides may be a better choice.
Microdermabrasion is another option available for those seeking to presnt a
younger-looking face to the world. This procedure works by sloughing off the
top layer of the skin, revealing fresh skin cells and encouraging new growth.
Although some patients may find this process slightly uncomfortable, it is by
no means painful. Some may experience a slight reddening of the skin that
lasts for several hours after the procedure is finished, but it is usually gone
by the next day. Some patients may need several consecutive treatments in
order to realize optimal results. Many people opt for microdermabrasian in
preparation for a special life event where they want to look their absolute
best.
Laser skin resurfacing is an option available for those with deep lines and
wrinkles who want to minimize their appearance. It also works well for patients
who have significant skin discoloration.
