Good Skin Care Makes Sense
|  People know they need to exercise and eat an appropriate diet to maintain and promote good health. It makes sense for us to put the same amount of effort into preventing damage to the skin and face, which can lead to aging changes and even skin cancer.
"Sun, environmental exposure and age combine to damage the elastin or collagen of the skin," says cosmetic dermatologist Mollie MacCormack, MD. "The resulting loss of elasticity leads to wrinkles and sagging skin. Exposure to the sun over the years also causes brown spots and changes in the skin that may include precancerous lesions. All of these age-related changes can be lessened a great deal by preventive care-frequent use of sunblock, adequate hydration by drinking water, and use of appropriate skin care products for the face."
Exfoliation can help remove dead, damaged external skin layers and stimulate the production of new skin and collagen. Microdermabrasian and Retin A and vitamin C products help to enhance the exfoliation process.
Noninvasive options for treating existing sun damage and age-related changes are also available:
- Microdermabrasion and skin peels can improve skin tone and texture
- Laser treatments can obliterate brown spots and vascular lesions on the face
- Botox® or injectable fillers can minimize fine lines
"Simple injections of Botox can relax frown lines and crow's feet," says plastic surgeon Christine DiEdwardo, MD. "Although Botox injections have to be repeated (usually every four to six months), they are much less expensive than surgery, require no down time, and pose no surgical risk. Injectable fillers soften lip lines, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines. There are also newer products on the market that add volume to the cheeks and temple areas to create a more youthful appearance."
These procedures can be done during a lunch hour-there is no need for patients to clear their schedules for recovery.
