Non-surgical facial rejuvenation
Non-surgical facial rejuvenation
The skin and tissues of the face change gradually with age.
This can lead to loss of volume, wrinkles, reduced skin elasticity, and changes in facial contours.
In addition to surgical procedures, there are non-surgical treatments available that can help to subtly improve certain signs of skin aging.
Depending on the indication, various techniques can be used to:
- soften expression lines
- correct loss of volume
- improve skin quality
- stimulate collagen production
Which treatments are available?
Non-surgical facial rejuvenation includes several categories of treatments.
Muscle relaxants (botulinum toxin)
Muscle relaxants based on botulinum toxin are used to temporarily relax specific muscles.
This allows wrinkles caused by repeated muscle movements to become softer.
Typical treatment areas include:
- frown lines
- forehead wrinkles
- crow’s feet around the eyes
- bunny lines
- corners of the mouth
Fillers
Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are used to restore volume and improve contours.
They are often applied in cases of:
- loss of volume in the cheeks
- contour improvement of the jawline or chin
- lip augmentation
- softening of nasolabial folds
Skin boosters
Skinboosters primarily improve the hydration and quality of the skin.
They are used when the skin has become drier, duller, or less elastic.
Typical zones include:
- face
- neck
- décolletage
Polynucleotides
Polynucleotides are injectable treatments aimed at repairing skin structure and regenerating connective tissue.
They are often applied in cases of:
- reduced skin quality
- fine lines
- thin skin around the eyes
PRP / PRF
PRP and PRF utilize the body’s own blood to support tissue repair and skin regeneration.
These techniques are applied, among others, for:
- improvement of skin quality
- supporting hair growth
- regenerative skin treatments
Biostimulators
Biostimulators stimulate the skin to produce new collagen, which can contribute to a gradual tightening of the tissue.
They are often applied in cases of:
- early-stage skin laxity
- diminished facial contours
- loss of skin elasticity
Combination of treatments
Often, a combination of treatments is used to address different aspects of skin aging.
For example:
- muscle relaxants for expression lines
- fillers for loss of volume
- skinboosters or polynucleotides for skin quality
By combining these treatments, a harmonious and natural result can be pursued.
When is surgery sometimes more appropriate?
Non-surgical treatments can improve certain signs of skin aging, but they also have their limitations.
In cases of pronounced skin laxity or structural changes to the face, a surgical procedure may sometimes be a more suitable solution.
Examples include:
- facelift
- neck lift
- eyelid surgery
