Aging Gracefully with Evolution Medical Spa
"At age 20-Beauty is a given.
At age 30-Beauty is a decision.
At age 40-Beauty is a commitment.
At age 50-Beauty is an investment."
That just about says it all-doesn’t it? Just as our car needs regular maintenance and repairs in order to run properly, our skin needs attention to keep it looking beautiful. As we age our skin needs more and more attention to maintain that beauty...
Beginning in our early thirty’s, we start to see some of the effects of aging on our skin and facial appearance. Generally, all that is necessary at this age is just some Enhancement of our good features, and what we already have to work with. With the proper sun protection, at home skin care and topical treatments, microdermabrasion treatments and some well placed Botox ...we’re good to go!
As we approach our forties we need to start getting more serious about those aging changes. All the above options still apply but this is a time when we need to start to Rejuvenate our face. We start to see early wrinkling, sinking and sagging of the facial skin at this age and NOW is when we want to address it. At this age, volume replacement with collagen stimulating dermal fillers is recommended to start to replace what mother nature is robbing us of. Re-establishing young healthy appearing cheeks, softening those sunken creases that develop along side our nose (nasolabial folds) and beside our mouth (marionette lines) perhaps building up our shrinking chin a bit helps to keep our facial appearance beautifully smooth and triangular-just like it was back in our twenties. When the skin starts to appear uneven due to pigmentation from sun damage, hormonal changes, or acne scarring, laser and intense pulse light therapies become a Godsend at this age. Establishing a good aesthetic baseline and then fine-tuning it every couple years provides the maintenance our face needs to not only prevent new aging changes but will also hault and usually reverse those that have already started to develop. Being ahead of the game and allowing the dermal fillers to stimulate our body’s own new collagen goes a long toward avoiding the investment in beauty that will be required when we hit our 50’s.
Around age fifty, if no preventative treatments had been utilized earlier in life, we require what we call Restoration efforts. At around age 50 we develop significantly more wrinkling, sinking and sagging of the skin with the associated marked atrophy of our innate collagen and the underlying boney structure of the face. At this stage, much larger volumes of dermal fillers are needed to bring back that youthful appearance as well as more aggressive topical therapies including ablative and non-ablative laser treatments to tighten and lighten the skin are required. Generally, if Enhancement and Rejuvenation therapies had been started at an earlier age the need for the aggressive and expensive treatments for correction in Restoration efforts can be avoided or at the very least moderated.
Our face, just like our teeth, our hair and even our car needs maintenance and repairs if the beauty we enjoy in our 20’s is to last a lifetime. At Evolution Medical Spa we specialize in all treatment options needed to provide the maintenance and repairs that are necessary to assure that youthful appearance. Dr. William Paronish would be more than happy to discuss your individual needs and answer any questions you may have on your personal quest to keep mother nature at bay.
