Cosmetic Procedures The New Normal

By Melinda Croning


Looking younger and well rested is what we all want. Plastic surgeons help patients regain their youthful appearance - without having to undergo surgery - by using injectables and skin treatments. Non-invasive cosmetic procedures appeal to those patients who want to improve their appearance without the risk of complications or recovery time needed with more invasive plastic surgery treatments.

Cosmetic surgery of any kind used to be an embarrassment, but in today's world things have changed so dramatically that people readily admit that they have had cosmetic surgery. One of the fastest growing areas of plastic surgery is non-surgical procedures. Non-surgical procedures focus on the troublesome areas of the face and body that might make you look old and tired. These procedures are very effective in the short term, although the results are often temporary.

There are many reasons that patients may opt for non-invasive alternatives rather than surgery. First of all, most of these treatments are very affordable. Surgery may be expensive, while injectables or surface treatments are within your budget. Also, there is little to no downtime needed for recovery. It can be difficult to get time off of work, as those of us with jobs know all too well. Most of these procedures are done in very little time at the office and patients are able to immediately return to their normal routine. And then there is the safety factor and the reduced risk. There are very few complications associated with this type of cosmetic procedure as compared to surgery. And if you do not like the results, they do wear off with time.

The two main types of non-invasive procedures include injectables and surface treatments. Injectables are usually employed to reduce wrinkles and fine lines by plumping up the face. Laser treatments and chemical peels are surface treatments that target wrinkle reduction. Botox is the most popular non-invasive treatment choice for patients. A purified, natural protein, it is injected into the brow area where facial lines and wrinkles exist.

Physicians use it to smooth the deep, persistent lines between your brows that develop over time. The facial muscles that cause those lines to form will relax for up to four months with only a few tiny injections. The results are dramatic and apparent within days. Patients are able to return to normal activity almost immediately after receiving the injections - this is the best part.

The natural process of aging causes skin to lose volume; facial fillers are used to replace it by plumping the skin. These injectables restore the youthful contour of your face and smooth wrinkles.

Laser treatments are another popular non-invasive cosmetic procedure that helps to reduce the signs of aging. Laser skin resurfacing is a procedure that smooths the facial skin and in some cases, can improve the firmness of skin.

A chemical peel evens out skin tone affected by age, sun damage, or acne. Younger, smoother skin is created by this procedure which uses a chemical solution to remove the damaged outer layers of your skin. It can improve the look of freckles, scars, fine lines and wrinkles, as well as sun-damaged skin.

There are a variety of cosmetic procedures. It is clear that there are many means to make you look and feel more beautiful and youthful. You no longer have to break the bank to get your own treatment - good news.
