What Reduces Wrinkles Fast?

OK, you have a party coming up with people you haven’t seen in person in a REALLY long time! But dang those wrinkles feel like they have gotten worse. What can you do to reduce those wrinkles fast? Good news is, we have a few ways to make you glow fast with quick treatments and pretty darn quick results! Just make sure to schedule your appointment about a week before your party to really let the treatment shine.

Depending on where your wrinkles are on your face will determine which specific treatment you will want. Some treatments are more encompassing than others, treating multiple signs of aging, while others can take longer to see their optimal results.

The fastest way to get rid of wrinkles is with derma fillers.

Dermal fillers are a leading non-invasive, anti-aging solution to instantly smooth visible lines, wrinkles, and nasolabial folds. They primarily work as a filler to diminish the signs of aging, but also they can be used to enhance cheeks, add volume to the chin, enhance lips, lift cupid's bow, define jawline, or correct nose (non-surgical rhinoplasty).

Dermal fillers work within minutes by boosting the skin's supply of hyaluronic acid. These injectables restore lost volume to the skin, smooth lines and soften creases to safely produce a more defined, more supple, and younger-looking face. Dermal fillers are best for:

• nasolabial folds and deeper creases

• wrinkles, fine lines, marionette lines, and smoker’s lines around the lips

• under eye area

• cheek enhancement

• mid face lift

• non-surgical rhinoplasty

• chin enhancement

• jawline contouring

• face contouring

Dermal fillers rely on a naturally occurring compound called hyaluronic acid (HA), which is found in the body, to restore a youthful look. HA helps maintain skin hydration, fullness and elasticity. With age, people generally produce less HA, collagen and elastin, which all contribute to keeping skin plump and hydrated.

The biocompatible gels, which are gradually and safely absorbed into the body, increase the volume and lift of your skin. These immediate results get the job done quick, however they do not last as long as some of the slower methods that we will talk about in a bit.

Nowadays, there are far more options than the gold standard of Botox®. Not to say that we don’t love us some Botox®- it is definitely a great option than can give you the results you want. However, there are now new fillers that address specific needs. Let’s go over all our favorites!

• Botox®-
  Ok, yes we had to start here! You have heard of it, maybe even used it, but do you know how Botox® works? Botox® temporarily treats lines and wrinkles at the source, relaxing the underlying muscles of the face to create a smooth, refreshed finish. Expression lines are softened and smoothed, awakening your face and taking years off of your appearance.

  Botox® takes up to 7-10 days to show 100% of the treatment result, therefore it is important to make sure you are scheduling this well in advance of your event to look your most natural, vibrant self.

• Jeuveau™-

  Jeuveau™ is almost the same as Botox®. Jeuveau™ works on the same principle as Botox® to smooth out the creases in the face, lines, frown and crow’s feet. Patients can see an improvement in lines and creases as early as 2-3 days.
  Both Jeuveau™ and Botox® are neuromodulators created from a refined form of Botulinum toxin A. Jeuveau™ is being hailed as “Newtox.” While both Botox® and Jeuveau™ are created from the same basic neurotoxin, Jeuveau™ has the benefit of using the newest technology and methods of creation that were not available when Botox® entered the scene.
  Jeuveau™ is the first neuromodulator to be approved by the FDA solely for the treatment of facial lines and wrinkles. Not only does it work more quickly than Botox, it is also less expensive!

• Xeomin®-

  Don’t be mad or look mad! Xeomin® is a form of incobotulinumtoxin A that is used to block muscle movement in areas that contribute to wrinkles. It is used in the forehead, typically between the brows to soften frown lines.
  Sometimes the body has the ability to become immune to other neurotoxins like Botox® injected too many times in patient’s forehead, rendering its muscle-freezing abilities useless. When your Botox® treatment has started to lose its magic touch, rest assured that you have another option in Xeomin®.

• Sculptra®-

  Sculptra® is one of our favorite products since it stimulates the body to produce its own type 1 collagen over time, giving you a more permanent result, unlike other fillers which completely dissolves over time. Collagen is a natural skin protein that is present in large quantities when you are younger but declines as you age. It is responsible for keeping the skin firm and plump.

  Sculptra® enhances skin tone and texture and also improves skin health. This offers a more subtle, natural-looking result by adding volume slowly as your body produces more collagen in the area. The best part with improvements brought on by Sculptra® being gradual is that it will be much less likely that anyone suspects that you’ve had any treatment done.

  The results of Sculptra® can last for up to 2 years, which is a lot longer than many of the other cosmetic injectables. You will see the best results eight weeks after initial treatment, so again plan accordingly!

• Radiesse-

  Radiesse is a trusted dermal filler that is specifically for moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds in the lower face and can also be used for your hands. The results are natural looking while providing an instant lift and definition which can last for a year or more. Radiesse also helps to stimulate the collagen production in the area. The unique formula of Radiesse produces a lift below deep wrinkles, lines, and folds that looks natural and fresh.

  If you are noticing laugh lines, smile lines, lines under your mouth, around the corners of your mouth, and even in the chin area, Radiesse is a great option for you to consider. Think of Radiesse as a more sophisticated version of Botox- also a dermal filler but with the added punch of boosting collagen for lasting natural looking results. The results with Radiesse are not stiff which means unless you decide to brag on your newfound friend, no one will ever know!

What are more long term options than derma fillers?

If you have some more time and don’t really want to go with derma fillers, there are two options that are relatively quick to see results but that also help improve the overall look of your face for anti-aging benefits.

• Morpheus8-
  Morpheus8 is a device that combines microneedling with radiofrequency technology for fractional resurfacing that stimulates collagen production. By targeting the deeper layers of the skin, the building blocks will reorganize themselves in a natural anti-aging process. There is little to no damage to the dermis and this procedure provides an extremely uniform effect.
  Microneedling is a scientifically proven method to reduce wrinkles and rebuild collagen. Radiofrequency (RF) energy heats the deep layers of the skin in a controlled manner to revitalize the collagen. This treatment helps to improve skin complexion and texture for a more radiant and youthful appearance.
  How quickly will I see results from a Morpheus8 treatment?

  You will notice the first visible results within a few days. Typically the most noticeable results appear after three weeks. Improvements continue up to three months after treatment as the body continues to boost its natural production of collagen. Therefore, immediately after the treatment, you will have redness in the area, but by the following day in most cases that redness has subsided. This is why we really like this treatment option for so many folks- it’s quick to do, with little down time, and not readily obvious that you have had a procedure done!

• CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing-
  Laser skin resurfacing can smooth the complexion and remove imperfections for a fresh, youthful glow. Improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, age spots, uneven skin tone, skin texture irregularities or facial scars. This option is great to treat the whole face for a complete refreshed look that tackles multiple issues at once.
  At Perich Aesthetics, we use the Candela CO2RE® Laser to remove the skin’s outer layers and allow radiant new skin cells to shine through. The laser application boosts the production of collagen, which keeps skin looking soft, supple, and smooth. It also encourages more rapid cell turnover to create an evener tone and fewer age spots. We can adjust the intensity of the lasers based on your skin type and desired aesthetic goals for a quick, painless procedure that requires less downtime than traditional laser resurfacing.

  What should I expect after the procedure and how quick are the results?

  You may feel a slightly painful sensation similar to a sunburn, but it will resolve within a few hours. As your skin begins to exfoliate dead cells to foster new growth, you will notice peeling for up to 10 days. Caring for your skin and protecting it from the sun when you’re outdoors can help preserve the results of your treatment. Although your complexion will look fresher and more youthful after a single treatment, we may recommend follow-up treatment depending on your desired results.

No matter which option peeked your interest, here at Perich Aesthetics we can make sure to customize your treatment to maximize your results in any time frame you might have- ok well maybe not the same day! Give us a call at 727-777-2640 to schedule your consultation today!
