The shift to cooler weather in the fall isn’t just great for pumpkin spice and haunted hayrides – it’s also an excellent opportunity to refresh your skincare routine and address lines, wrinkles, and other imperfections that may have shown up on your skin after the summer sunshine.
While the best skin treatment to both get rid of wrinkles now and prevent future wrinkles later will depend on your specific skin type and needs, here are some of the top anti-aging skin treatments that our practice offers.
Injectable Fillers
Wrinkles and creases around your mouth and nose or a “sunken” appearance caused by lost facial volume are common signs of aging that can be accelerated by sun exposure. Injectable fillers like JUVÉDERM®, Restylane®, Sculptra®, and others can fill in wrinkles and restore lost volume in the face, resulting in a smoother and more youthful overall appearance.
Our treatment team will create a customized injectable filler treatment plan based on your specific cosmetic goals. Results can last anywhere from six months to over a year, depending on the type of filler you get, making these treatments excellent options for long-lasting wrinkle reduction.
BOTOX®/Dysport®
Dynamic wrinkles, or wrinkles that form when you make facial expressions, are best treated with neuromodulators like BOTOX® or Dysport®. Some of the most common areas that our injectors treat with BOTOX and Dysport include the forehead, between the eyebrows and crow’s feet at the corners of the eyes. Some studies have found that these injectable wrinkle treatments may also help to prevent future static – or permanent – wrinkles from forming by relaxing the facial muscles that cause them.
Laser Resurfacing
Laser resurfacing is one of the most effective treatments for reducing wrinkles and improving overall skin texture. By using targeted laser energy, this treatment removes damaged outer layers of skin and stimulates collagen production, helping to firm and smooth the skin. Whether you’re dealing with fine lines around your eyes or deeper wrinkles around your nose or mouth, laser resurfacing can provide significant improvements. Fall is an ideal time for laser treatments because the cooler weather and lower UV exposure help to protect your skin as it heals.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels use a blend of alpha and/or beta hydroxy acids to exfoliate the top layers of skin, removing dead cells and promoting the growth of new, healthy skin. This process not only reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles but also improves skin discoloration, sun damage, and skin texture.
We will customize your chemical peel to best suit your skin type and specific needs. Lighter peels can be suitable for sensitive skin types and can achieve a light skin rejuvenation, while deeper peels can address a wider range of skin concerns. Fall is the perfect time for chemical peels, as the reduced sun exposure minimizes the risk of complications and allows your skin to heal more effectively.
DiamondGlow®
DiamondGlow® is a unique skin-resurfacing treatment that combines exfoliation, extraction and infusion in one session. Using a diamond-tipped wand, this treatment gently exfoliates the outer layer of your skin while simultaneously infusing it with customized serums tailored to your skin’s needs. This three-in-one approach not only helps to smooth away fine lines and wrinkles but also improves skin texture, hydration and radiance.
