Non-Surgical Face Lifts

Non-Surgical Face Lifts Getting older is something that many people wish they could avoid. As the body ages, appearance changes. It may be that hair starts to thin or change colour and, in most cases, wrinkles start to appear. Thinning hair can be cut or the hairstyle changed to lessen the appearance of aging. It is also possible to dye tell-tale greying hair so that the individual appears younger. However, wrinkles are not so easy to disguise.

For that reason, many people will consider cosmetic surgery. However, going under the knife in the name of vanity is not something that everyone would contemplate. Thankfully, there are a number of non-surgical face-lifts available these days that do not involve knives and, more importantly, lengthy recovery periods.

Types of Non-Surgical Face Lifts Non-surgical procedures are becoming more and more popular these days as people try to minimise the signs of aging. There are a number of different non-surgical procedures available, including the following: Botox – Botox are anti-wrinkle injections that relax the muscles into which they are injected. When the body ages, muscles become weaker and, as a result, wrinkles and deep lines can appear. Botox works by paralysing these muscles and creating a smooth appearance. Treatments usually last for three to four months before repeat injections will be required.

Plasma Skin Tightening – Plasma skin tightening, or resurfacing, is an alternative to classic skin resurfacing which involved burning a layer of skin away. The theory behind controlled damage of the skin is that once it heals, it improves the signs of aging. Plasma skin tightening works in a similar way but reduces the chance of infection thanks to the use of plasma and nitrogen.

This method also reduces recovery time.

Dermal Fillers – Dermal fillers are soft tissue fillers injected into the skin.

These are used to fill in deep lines and wrinkles and give a smoother, younger

looking appearance. Dermal fillers pad out the area under the skin but, after time, are absorbed by the body,so repeat injections are necessary. They are also used by doctors to improve the appearance of scars or to fill out thin lips. Some people opt for dermal fillers to contour their jaw line or to plump up their cheeks.

No-cut Face Lifts –Traditional facelifts involve surgery and are quite invasive. However, no-cut brow, neck, and jowl lifts are a popular way to achieve a younger looking appearance without the need to go under the knife. These procedures are carried out by specialised doctors using special threads, which hold the facial tissue and skin in the desired location. The results of these procedures are exceptional but there is less risk than with traditional methods.

Benefits of Non-Surgical Face Lifts There are a number of benefits to choosing non-surgical face-lifts; below are a just a few.

The most obvious benefit is the fact that there is no need for a general anaesthetic. Being put to sleep for surgery always carries a certain amount of risk and most people would prefer to avoid this if possible.

Surgical facelifts require a certain amount of time for recovery, meaning taking time off work, as well as pain while the wounds heal. This is avoided with non-surgical face-lifts.

Because there is less time and work involved with these procedures, they tend to be less expensive.

Non-surgical procedures are non-invasive and therefore a safer alternative to surgical procedures.

Swelling and puffiness is reduced and the appearance is immediately improved. With surgical procedures, the face will often be quite swollen and

there may be fluid retention around the eyes. This is eliminated with a nonsurgical procedure.

Non-surgical facelifts are typically a pain free way to improve the appearance and to see instant results.
