With new skin and hair laser schools using new skin and hair technology and treatments, there are more and more options for elective beauty treatments from laser hair removal to Juvederm and Restylane collagen fillers. Which one is right for you? Below is a list of some beauty treatments you may not have known about before.

 

Collagen Fillers

As we get older our skin cannot produce the same amount of collagen, therefore our skin begins losing its elasticity, so we end up with those unwanted fine lines and wrinkles. Hyaluronic Acid is made in our body naturally and it is an ingredient of collagen fillers and since collagen is a natural protein produced by the skin- it is not as intense of treatment as plastic surgery would be. Through a small procedure, Juvederm and Restylane collagen fillers, for example, are injected into your skin to smooth those fine lines and wrinkles.

 

Laser Resurfacing

Short and pulsating beams of light are used on the wrinkles or lines and being precise, it can help resurface the skin, layer by layer, removing wrinkles. It is not toxic nor does it have harsh side effects like Botox can.

 

Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA)

Alpha Hydroxy acids are often very affordable and not as intense as a chemical peel, though some of the same chemicals are contained in chemical peels are in alpha hydroxyl acids. The alpha hydroxyl acids sloughs off the old skin leaving your more youthful looking skin exposed.

 

Microdermabrasion

Is a non-surgical treatment that reduces fine lines and wrinkles on your face without harsh chemicals or lasers. It actually uses micro crystals of aluminum oxide that leaves your skin feeling smooth and younger looking.

 

Anti-Aging Cream

Wrinkle creams can give you great results without the huge commitment and also help with long-term prevention of future wrinkles due to the hydration effect of the creams.

 

If there is any free and proven means of fighting the signs of aging it would be staying out of the sun, drinking plenty of water and not smoking- all free and proven skin savers. When all else fails, try out a new treatment besides Botox that may change your life.
