Understanding Wrinkles: Causes and Treatment Options

Aging is a natural process, and with aging come wrinkles. As people age, their skin gets thinner and drier, leading to wrinkles. If you need help with wrinkles in Glendora, CA, Dr. Amarpaul Sidhu of Foothill Cosmetic Surgery Center offers a full array of treatments that can help you fight off the signs of aging.

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels use chemicals to remove damaged skin on your face. A TCA (trichloroacetic acid) peel is a medium-strength peel. It’s good for light wrinkling, discoloration, and sun-damaged skin. However, a TCA peel won’t help with deep wrinkles or severe sagging. 

It takes 30 minutes to apply, and you must protect your skin from the sun. While one treatment produces results, three treatments are recommended. 

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion uses crystals to polish off the damaged skin cells on the face. It helps remove sun-damaged skin and light wrinkles, leaving you with fresh, younger-looking skin. There may be mild discomfort but no downtime. Combine this treatment with a glycolic peel to create the most dramatic results. 

Botox

Botox is one of the most popular ways to fight aging. It is injected into the muscles, especially in the forehead, and relaxes them. This reduces the appearance of wrinkles, and it can last for up to four months. However, it is not effective in the lower part of the face. 

Fillers are often a better option in this area and, combined with Botox, can rejuvenate the entire face. 

Fillers

For those who like instant gratification, dermal fillers provide just that. With minimal effort and often requiring only one appointment, you can have younger, natural-looking results lasting up to two years. Fillers can give you fuller lips and remove fine lines around the nose and mouth. 

Fractionated CO2 Laser

Laser treatment has become a popular option for helping reduce the apparent signs of aging on your face. The Fraxel repair laser provides dramatic results and non-invasive wrinkle removal in Glendora, CA. 

Just one treatment will make you look and feel younger. The laser penetrates deep into the skin and stimulates naturally produced collagen. You can use the laser on other body parts besides the face for a more youthful appearance. 

Plastic Surgery

A facelift or a brow lift has been routine for decades. The results are superior to those of other non-invasive methods and can take 10–15 years off your looks.
