Finally Revealed! Strategies Anyone Can Use to say Good Bye to Wrinkles…
As we all know, wrinkles come into sight ahead of us noticing it. These unwanted lines and folds usually emerge on the face first, mainly on the eyes and the mouth areas as we gain age. There are many reasons that bring about the appearance of wrinkles and such are solar exposure, air pollution, insufficient vitamins, minerals and nutrients in the body, improper diet and smoking. The above lessens the levels of collagen and elastin which are the connective tissues of the skin, causing it to loosen thus producing wrinkles.
One is advised to follow a regular skin care regimen before wrinkles can even show up. The face should be washed for three times a day or as often as needed to take out the sweat and pollutants that might damage the pores. Natural sunscreen is very much recommended to guard the face from ultraviolet rays.
Drinking of water, at least 8 glasses a day, eating the right kind of food and avoiding caffeine, alcohol and nicotine could bring back the natural moisture of the skin.
There are vitamins that can help in maintaining a youthful skin. The creams and lotions you use should have these elements to make it effective upon application:
Vitamin A is known prevents the skin from being rough because it puffs up the skin.
Vitamin C promotes the production of collagen and prevents dullness and dryness.
Vitamin E & Coenzyme Q10 shelters the skin from damage and improves blood flow. These are the antioxidants that are capable of protecting the skin from free radicals.
Alpha Hydroxy Acids or fruit acids get rid of dead skin cells to give way to new ones.
No matter what skin care or avoidance you do, still wrinkles grow uncontrollably, initially on the face and neck then towards the other parts of the body. That’s the time we think of other options.
Those men and women who are seriously anxious about their looks find ways to battle these unwanted lines on the face. They have resorted to non surgical facelift, which is painless, safe, convenient and easy on the budget.
We have the botox injections, treatment, chemical peels, oils and creams, laser, anti wrinkle liquids, micro-current technology and dermabrasion – the most popular ones. Most of them bring small side effects like reddening of the skin, and blemishes, but are not very serious and can be controlled.
Although these procedures are safe and easy, there are still some who cannot be satisfied with nominal results and they end up to cosmetic surgery.
The 9 reasons why surgery is not the better option are:
1. Long time preparations for pre and post surgery are needed. You have to stay in a hospital which means added expense. Cosmetic surgery is not enclosed in your medical insurance.
2. Anesthetics bring about allergic reactions to some patients.
3. The swelling and scarring are effects of surgical procedure. Take note, scars could be lasting depending on the patient and they could be worse than the wrinkles.
4. Excessive bleeding may cause hematoma, the swelling under the skin. The dangerous part of it is that you may have to undergo another operation to remove the blood clots and stop the bleeding.
5. Parts of the skin will naturally be damaged when excess skin is removed.
6. The face will become unfeeling because facial muscles are weakened.
7. It is expensive and is painful even with the aid of anesthesia. It’s the pain after the operation.
8. Precautionary measures should be followed – what not to eat, what you can’t do like strenuous activities.
9. One thing more, recovery takes time. It makes you stay in the hospital longer. From there, you still need more time to rest at home. Plus the fact that you have to take medicines for pain and some other antibiotics.
It looks like alarming to pick surgery over the non invasive procedures of facelift. The latter will save you time and money. Time, because a non surgical facelift takes about an hour. It saves you money, because you bring about lesser expenses than going under the surgeon’s knife, which could cost you a fortune.
Now, it is your choice.
