For a Beautiful New Year, Remember your Skin!

Maybe the new year has you hitting the gym or your yoga mat more often. Maybe you’ve been on Pinterest obsessing over delectable plant-based recipes. The beginning of another twelve months may affect us all in different ways. What we often see is an increase in motivation to improve the way we feel about our appearance. We’re right there with you, which is why we want to dedicate some time to discuss the value of good skin.

When people express an interest in cosmetic procedures, the obvious objective is to look younger. What lies behind looking younger, though, are characteristics that really make us look livelier, more motivated, and generally friendlier. In our San Antonio offices, we offer numerous ways to pamper the skin and superficial tissue on the face to recreate that friendly vibe you’re after.

Name Your Concern

Recent advances in aesthetic medicine and technology have come together to make aging gracefully a real possibility. We essentially have a solution to just about every age-related cosmetic concern one could encounter. In some cases, a treatment can address multiple concerns simultaneously. A few that we suggest for our patients include:

• Chemical peels. This more intense method of exfoliating the skin goes above and beyond the average facial. A chemical peel removes dead cell and cellular debris gently and effectively so the skin is better able to absorb nutrients from skincare products.
• Microneedling. Collagen is the name of the game when it comes to youthful looking skin. Microneedling is a technique that forces increased collagen production by creating micro-channels in superficial tissue. No downtime. No side effects. All natural results.
• Injectables. If you’ve yet to jump on the injectables bandwagon, this is your year. More people are turning to injectables like Botox and dermal fillers to reduce the signs of aging and also to postpone their appearance. Injectables aren’t just for wrinkles, either. If that double chin just keeps getting worse, Kybella may be an excellent treatment to try this year. Not into injections? Talk with us about CoolSculpting double-chin treatment.
• Ultherapy. One of the reasons why lines and wrinkles and jowls worsen over time is because the scaffold that supports firm, supple skin breaks down. Ultherapy is the high-tech treatment that dives deep beneath the surface. With one treatment, collagen contraction and production significantly improve. In turn, the skin progressively looks tighter, more lifted, and all-around younger.
