As we age, we begin to notice changes in our skin. It may not be as tight, firm, or supple as it was in the past. You may also be experiencing some fine lines and wrinkles that are just beginning to show. There are some great ways that you can keep your skin looking fresh and young at this stage without invasive cosmetic procedures. Here are the three top ways to keep your skin looking fresh and young for longer.
Chemical Peels
A chemical peel is a great way to revitalize your skin. The chemical peel allows the superficial layers of skin to be peeled away, revealing fresh youthful skin beneath. This also stimulates collagen production, which can help make skin and surrounding tissues tighter and firmer. A chemical peel is a minimally invasive procedure that can be done in an afternoon, with final results in one to two weeks after the peel.
Microdermabrasion
If you have an uneven skin tone, microdermabrasion can help even out your skin tone and give you a more youthful appearance. Microdermabrasion is a more invasive form of exfoliation that involves a crystal or diamond tip scraping away the uppermost layers of skin. This stimulates collagen production and allows new skin to grow.
Microneedling
Microneedling is another great way for you to stimulate collagen production and reveal fresh, healing skin. During this process, a pen with several microneedles is applied to the face, leaving small punctures in the skin. These punctures are not large enough to be seen, but they are large enough to stimulate the healing properties of the skin, which can reverse the signs of aging and reveal a fresh new layer of skin in its wake.
