Unfortunately it is a fact of life; aging is inevitable. In today’s society, many people want to keep their youthful appearance for as long as they can and let’s face it, the look of fine lines and wrinkles is anything but appealing. However, here at Ringpfeil Advanced Dermatology, there are ways to prolong the aging process; Botox.
Aging skin and wrinkles result from a combination of many factors. The Dartmouth Undergraduate Journal of Science defines intrinsic aging as the aging process that takes place over the years regardless of external influences. After the age of 20, one percent less of collagen is produced in the dermis each year and the collagen and elastin fibers become thicker, more clumped, and looser, resulting in inelastic and brittle skin and eventually in wrinkling and sagging (Dartmouth Undergraduate Journal of Science). Due to the aging process, there are internal factors that cannot be changed or prevented, however, there are many external habits that contribute to and help speed up the aging process. Some of these habits include sun exposure, smoking, alcohol, lack of exercise & stress. If you want to keep your skin on its normal & on a healthy aging track, avoid those bad habits.
If you are having a hard time accepting the aging process, there are ways to help minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. One of our most popular procedures offered at Ringpfeil Advanced Dermatology is Botox. Botox is a bacteria-derived toxin and is injected into specific muscle groups to relax them and restore you to a worry free and youthful appearance. This process is temporary and lasts for about 3-6 months, however, most people who are pleased with their results will pursue injections every 4 months to maintain their results. Since Botox does not require surgery or recovery time, it makes for the perfect solution to your anti-aging needs.
