Wrinkles

Wrinkles appearing on one’s face is a facial feature that many dread, as there is nothing that seems to indicate age more than those. Even for people who feel young at heart, wrinkles can deplete their self-confidence and have them feeling older than they truly are. The great thing is that there are many options available for patients who want to get rid of wrinkles on their faces.

What is wrinkle treatment?

Wrinkle treatment is a cosmetic procedure that smooths out or reduces the appearance of wrinkles on the face by using injectables such as dermal fillers or products like Botox® in specific regions.

When using dermal fillers, with hyaluronic acid as the active ingredient in most cases, the mechanism used is to add volume to areas with wrinkles to reduce the appearance of loose skin in those regions.

Cosmetic products like Botox® and Dysport® are also useful in targeting wrinkles in certain areas like the upper face. This is because they reduce the activity of the facial muscles that are responsible for expressions that induce those wrinkles.

What to expect after wrinkle treatment?

It’s great that there’s pretty much no downtime to be expected after receiving wrinkle treatment. At most, patients may notice a degree of redness, swelling, bruising, or tenderness in the regions of the face that were treated. However, this tends to resolve after a few days.

There’s not much aftercare needed after the procedure if any, and patients can resume their daily activities even on the same day that they receive their treatment.

Depending on the filler or injectable used, patients are likely not to see their results immediately. After swelling, if present, has subsided, it may take a few days or weeks before the ultimate results are seen.
