Key treatments include:

• Neuromodulator Injectables (such as Botox): These prevent muscle contraction to stop lines from forming. Results typically last 3-6 months and can be used for both prevention and treatment of existing lines.
• Injectable Fillers (such as Juvederm): These use substances like hyaluronic acid to restore lost volume, smooth lines, and enhance contours in areas like the cheeks, lips, and jawline. Results are immediate and can last from six months to over a year.
• Laser Treatments: Fractional lasers improve skin discoloration, fine lines, and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production. Multiple initial treatments may be needed, followed by yearly maintenance.
• Energy-Based Treatments (such as Thermage): Using radiofrequency energy, these devices heat deep skin layers to tighten skin and promote collagen, often used on the jawline and neck with no downtime.

Dr. Steuer emphasizes that a daily skincare routine is crucial at any age, especially the consistent use of a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+) to prevent sun damage, which is a primary cause of aging skin.
