We all get older. Some faces take on a new expression as we get older, making them look more charismatic and mature – and giving them that “certain something” <\/strong>. Unfortunately, it is much more often the case that natural skin ageing and other influences, such as our own lifestyle <\/strong>or sun exposure <\/strong>, cause deep wrinkles to appear that change the face in such a way that you no longer like it. You don’t have to live with this. It is more than legitimate to stop the natural ageing process with small aids <\/strong>. Most women long for a fresh and wrinkle-free appearance<\/strong> as they get older. The problem that many face, however, is deciding on the right method of wrinkle treatment. Together we can find out what we can do to preserve your natural beauty <\/strong>and reduce the signs of ageing. Below we explain the differences between skin rejuvenation with botulinum, hyaluronic acid <\/strong>and the classic facelift<\/strong>. <\/p>\n


\nHow does skin ageing occur?<\/strong><\/p>\n

As we age, our skin also loses its elasticity<\/strong> as its cells produce less and less hyaluronic acid and collagen. Declining cell renewal <\/strong>and a persistent lack of moisture <\/strong>are generally considered to be the main reasons why the skin’s elasticity continues to decrease. The older face is then characterized above all by sagging skin, drooping upper eyelids, bags under the eyes and sagging cheeks. Genetic predisposition <\/strong>and lifestyle <\/strong>also play a significant role in the formation of individual wrinkles. People with thin, dry skin often suffer from wrinkles and large pores. People with thicker and oily skin usually develop wrinkles much later. Pronounced facial expressions <\/strong>can also promote skin ageing – for example, wrinkles at the corners of the eyes and mouth in people who smile frequently. If you look at it more closely, wrinkles are small crease lines in the skin <\/strong>– similar to heavily used leather. Here, too, they don’t go away completely if you smooth out the leather or apply cream regularly. The same applies to facial wrinkles. The best treatment is therefore timely prevention<\/strong>. <\/p>\n


\nWhat options are there for facial rejuvenation?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Facial rejuvenation is applied to a wide variety of areas – tailored to the individual facial type<\/strong>. Depending on the altered facial structure, the face is built up and lifted multi-dimensionally with liquid filling substances. It is important to bear in mind that facial rejuvenation is by no means primarily about the desire for a wrinkle-free and smooth face. Rather, the aim is to restore a naturally younger and relaxed complexion <\/strong>– without losing your own personality or the expressiveness of your face. At uniqaesthetics, we offer minimally invasive methods of wrinkle treatment that make facial rejuvenation possible without surgery <\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Botulinum for the treatment of the upper third of the face<\/strong><\/p>\n

Botulinum toxin is a neurotoxin that is used to remove expression lines <\/strong>. It is injected very specifically into certain areas, relaxing the muscle and smoothing the wrinkle. The blocked muscles can no longer contract as usual for up to seven months after treatment <\/strong>. We use it to effectively treat forehead wrinkles, frown lines and laugh lines (crow’s feet)<\/strong>. The reliability and tolerability of botulinum has been proven countless times in aesthetic medicine. At uniqaesthetics, we use Botulinum Azzalure\u00ae from the D\u00fcsseldorf-based company Galderma<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Hyaluronic acid for treating the lower two thirds of the face<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dermal fillers <\/strong>are the best-known option for injecting wrinkles. As part of this method, fillers are placed under the skin folds. The best-known filler is hyaluronic acid. It can be used to rebuild the cheek area and lips <\/strong>in particular. However, chin correction and the smoothing of nasolabial folds are also no problem with this method. By choosing the right product and the optimal injection points, the ideal injection depth and a precisely coordinated quantity and using the perfect technique, very natural, positive, younger and fresher-looking results <\/strong> canbe achieved<\/strong> with hyaluronic acid– without a mask-like appearance<\/strong>. Hyaluronic acid lasts for around 9-12 months. Sometimes even up to 18 months. However, the treatment results can be refreshed at any time with further treatment steps <\/strong>. Both substances, botulinum and hyaluronic acid, are used in different wrinkle treatments and are difficult to compare with each other<\/strong>. However, what they both have in common is that they cause little discomfort to the patient <\/strong>during and after the treatment – there is usually no or only mild bruising. Botulinum is particularly suitable for relaxing the mimic muscles. However, it does not have a plumping effect – the “hyaluronic filler” can do this better. A combination of both treatment methods<\/strong> is therefore usually recommended for optimum results. <\/p>\n


\nOther treatment methods for facial rejuvenation<\/strong><\/p>\n

In addition to minimally invasive methods with botulinum and hyaluronic acid, minor surgical procedures can also contribute to facial rejuvenation.<\/p>\n
