Facial Rejuvenation

 There are multiple options for treatment of wrinkles, which involve in office procedures with minimum down time.  These procedures include Botox, injection, wrinkle fillers, chemical peels and various laser treatments.  When  talking to patients about facial aging, I feel that it is most important to be in a good skin care regime.  One of the most important things that a patient can do to decrease early signs of aging or prevent these early signs is to take good care of their skin and to start on a topical vitamin A product, which has scientific evidence of decreasing wrinkle formation.  Hydro crone is another topical therapy that is very useful in improving any discolorations of the skin.  Antioxidants such as vitamin C has also been shown to help fight the aging.
