• • Getting a hand on 'hand rejuvenation' Saturday November 4, 2006 in: Plastic Surgery Procedures Tag(s):

    Darkened spots or pigmentations, wrinkles, or that awful bony appearance is common of ageing hands.  In some cases, precancerous growths also appear.  With these conditions, hands can get unattractive compared to other parts of the body.  Too much sun exposure is largely to blame.

    The loss of fatty tissue can also result to sagging hands. In fact hands can present more signs of ageing especially if the pair is ‘overworked’ – that cannot be said for golfers and gardeners only, but for anybody.

  • Smoothening facial lines and furrows using collagen Saturday November 4, 2006 in: Plastic Surgery Procedures Tag(s):

    The problem is may be one or two of the following:
    
    

    Frown lines that run between the eyebrows, smoker's lines which are vertical lines on the mouth, marionette lines at the corner of the mouth, worry lines that run across the forehead, crow's feet at the corner of the eyes, deep smile lines that run from side of the nose to corners of the mouth, cheek depressions, some acne scars, and other facial scars (providing they don't have a sharp edge).

    
     
    Collagen replacement therapy, a safe, non-surgical procedure known to boost the skin's collagen can smoothen all the aforesaid forms of facial lines as well as improve the skin's contour and fill out depressions in the skin due to scars, injury or lines.

  • Facial rejuvenation techniques: What fits? Friday November 3, 2006 in: Plastic Surgery Procedures Tag(s):

    When a person gets the better – or worst -- of sun exposure, cigarette smoking, chicken pox, acne and unavoidable hereditary reasons – factors that often accelerate the natural ageing process, the skin starts to lose its youthful appearance.  

    The unwanted look is obvious in the form of superficial blemishes such as broken capillaries, freckles (lentigos), and keratoses (dry spots), scars, fine wrinkles and deep furrows.
    Lip augmentation, collagen injections, wrinkle removal using dermal fillers, and injectables, are some of the common, non-surgical cosmetic enhancement procedures available to rejuvenate the ageing facial skin.
