Skin rejuvenation
We are approaching the new millenium with a wide array of choices for non-surgical procedures to make our aging or sun-damaged skin look healthier and years younger:
Clinical skin care programs that incorporate physician dispensed home care products and light to medium depth glycolic, salycitic and TCA peels, help to diminish fine lines and wrinkles, eliminate age spots, smooth and soften the skin, control or eliminate acne and provide a healthy glow to otherwise dull, lifeless environmentally damaged skin.
Topical agents such as Vitamins C & E are antioxidants and can provide powerful protection from free radical damage as well as lighten, tighten, and brighten photo-aged skin. Retin-A, and Renova, which is a more emollient form of Retin-A, are the only prescription drugs on the market approved by the FDA to call themselves a "anti-wrinkle" cream. They can correct pigmentation problems, improve acne, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, increase collagen production and thicken the skin.
Botox and Collagen injections can temporarily eliminate frown lines, crows feet and deep wrinkles above the upper lip for a period of 3-4 months.
