Wrinkles are the most noticeable sign of aging for men and women of nearly all age groups. As we age, our bodies naturally begin to produce less and less collagen, which can lead to wrinkles and lines on the face, forehead and elsewhere on the body. While wrinkles may be unavoidable, there are plenty of wrinkle reduction methods and treatments available to keep your skin smooth and youthful.

At AYA^™, we offer many treatments and services that can help our patients reduce wrinkles. The most popular among them are our wide variety of cosmetic injectables. Botox^® Cosmetic injections can work wonders by relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkling around the eyes and on the forehead. Similarly, our vast array of facial fillers (including treatments from Juvéderm^® & Sculptra^® Aesthetic) are able to successfully treat wrinkles that accrue around a patient’s cheeks, mouth and nose. Additionally, chemical peels can serve as an excellent remedy to wrinkle problems.

We often get asked, “What can I do at home to fight wrinkles between treatments?” With that in mind, we’ve provided some simple tips that you can try at home to help compliment your wrinkle reduction treatments from AYA^™:

Cleansing

Gently cleansing your skin regularly can help promote smooth, healthy skin that looks more revitalized, fresh and radiant. One of the many cleansing products we carry is the Foaming Cleanser from Elta.

Exfoliation

Exfoliation can help to remove wrinkles by removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells. By doing so, exfoliation exposes the younger, living cells underneath. This results in a more vibrant, glowing face. For exfoliation in between your microdermabrasion treatments at AYA^™ we recommend Exfoliating Facial Rinse from Revision^® Skincare.

Moisturizing

Moisturizers that keep the skin hydrated are always recommended. Other topical treatments including vitamin C can also successfully combat wrinkles. AYA^™ offers a wide variety of beneficial moisturizing lotions and creams including Obagi C^® RX Exfoliating Day Lotion and Hydrate Plus from Auspect^™ Skincare.

Sun Protection

UV radiation from the sun is the number one cause of wrinkles. With that in mind, avoiding unnecessary sunlight should be a priority for anyone trying to limit wrinkles. Sunscreen can help protect your skin from potential harm when you are outside. We recommend any of the sunscreens available from EltaMD^® Skincare.

Regardless of which wrinkle reduction treatments you decide on, proper home maintenance between treatments can go a long way towards achieving healthy, young-looking skin as you age.
