The face is commonly the first part of the body to show signs of aging. When you consider facial Naperville plastic surgery for the face, you may think they all involve surgery. Luckily, you have several non-surgical options that are just as effective as surgical procedures.
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a procedure that treats sun damage, wrinkles, age spots, and other skin conditions. The procedure involves exfoliating the skin to remove the top layer using an applicator, which reveals a fresh skin layer.
You may need repeated maintenance sessions every four to six weeks, but you should feel minimal discomfort. Your face can commonly absorb moisturizers better even after one session.
Botox
Botox is a treatment approved by the FDA to minimize fine lines and treat dynamic wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles occur from facial expressions, such as laughing or yawning.
The substance botulinum used in the injections temporarily freezes the facial muscles by intercepting the nerve signals that contract muscles. Botox has also been effective for headaches, neck spasms, migraines, and overactive bladder.
Chemicals Peels
Chemical peels are another facial treatment that removes the dermis and epidermis skin layers by exfoliation with a chemical solution. Chemical peels treat wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, dryness, acne, and scarring.
The doctor commonly applies the peel to the thicker skin areas, followed by the thinner areas. Chemical peels are made from various ingredients such as glycolic acid, salicylic acid, or phenol used in deep peels.
The best thing about these Naperville plastic surgery options is they don’t require hospital stays or long recovery time. However, you must be a good candidate to get the best results.
