The ageing face
We all follow a natural path of aging and our bodies visibly show lines mostly on the face & neck, hands and forearms.
Although genetics mainly determine skin structure and texture, sun exposure is a major cause of wrinkles, especially for people with light skin. Pollutants and smoking also contribute to wrinkling.
If your facia lines bother you, you have more options than ever to help smooth lines or make them less visible. There are non surgical techniques that can be used to reduce facial lines, these include collagen building procedures like skin needling, Laser resurfacing, Ultrasonic HIFU and Radio frequency (RF).
