Anti-Aging Treatments

Recent studies show that you can develop signs of aging, such as wrinkles and brown spots, from infrared light and heat. We used to think that UV light was the culprit of most skin damage. However, emerging research shows that heat can also cause inflammation and damage, including premature aging. There are several other factors that can result in rapid aging.

Aging gracefully is what we all want. But there are very few of us who take time to learn about it. Medical technology has seen amazing advancement in last decade. This has led to the discoveries of hyaluronic acid usage in injectable fillers. Since hyaluronic acid contains properties that keeps the skin hydrating; it is obviously a good option for many applications.

Anti-aging treatment that are non-invasive are also trending. In contrary to the traditional "surgeries", most of these treatments have no downtime. In addition to that, treatments that involve surgeries result in painful experience during procedure; and leave marks of treatment. That's why Dr. Dima Ali is a big advocate for non-invasive treatments.

We can't emphasis enough on the importance of non invasive anti-aging treatments. Since non invasive anti-aging treatments bring so many advantages to table, they definitely are winner over invasive treatments. Some of these advantages are as follow:

The use of hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm (made from a sugar that naturally occurs in the body) and Restylane are still the gold standard. They help in the production of new collagen; the protein fibers that give skin its firmness and strength resulting in diminishing moderate to severe wrinkles.
