Signs of aging may be more visible on the face than any other area of the body. Facial rejuvenation is a strategy using a variety of treatments to combat a variety of forces at work in an aging face. Here are some of the factors that may accelerate facial aging:

• Exposure to sun, wind, excessive heat and cold.
• Chemical and biological pollution.
• Hormonal changes, depleted collagen production, thinning of the skin due to free radical damage, facial bone changes, and slacked facial ligaments.
• Improper daily habits in terms of skincare, diet, exercise, and cigarette smoking.
• Medical conditions including skin disorders, acne, and chicken pox, which may produce scarring.
• Miscellaneous physiological functions can produce freckling pigmentation spots (lentigos), dry spots (keratoses), broken capillaries, and hyperpigmentation from hormonal changes (which may be induced by pregnancy or birth control medications).
• Genetics.

Facial rejuvenation can mean different things to different people. There are many non-invasive and minimally invasive treatments and procedures used to improve slight facial imperfections.

Botox^® can release the over-contraction of the facial musculature in order to reduce muscle-causing wrinkles in the upper facial area. Facial fillers such as Restylane^®, Juvederm^®, and Radiesse^® work to fill in furrows, wrinkles, and folds in many of the lower facial areas. Some of these fillers increase volume in hollowed or sunken facial areas. Unsightly hair can be removed with laser therapy. State of the art laser and light therapy can resurface and rejuvenate the face, as well as tighten the skin.
