What Daily Habits Can Potentially Slow the Appearance of Aging?
While aging can bring many benefits, like maturity and wisdom, it can also cause unwanted issues with your appearance. There are some small daily habits you can engage in to slow the appearance of aging.
To get the most transformative rejuvenation possible, you will want to consider injectables or plastic surgery. Let’s look at good habits for anti-aging benefits, then discuss some cosmetic treatments at our plastic surgery practice in Little Rock, AR.
Behaviors to Stop to Prevent the Formation of Lines and Wrinkles
Smoking is known to cause wrinkles and a more dulled appearance. Along with the many health benefits of smoking cessation, you can protect your appearance by saying goodbye to cigarettes for good.
Another vice you may want to give up is alcohol, since drinking can dehydrate and damage your skin.
Some skin products can also irritate your skin, making you appear older. If any of the products in your skin routine cause burning or stinging, it’s time to stop using them.
Actions to Take for Younger-Looking Skin
You can get minor boosts to your appearance with two daily actions, the application of a facial moisturizer and gentle skin cleansing to remove makeup, dirt, and other irritants. You should also wash your face after any time that you sweat heavily since perspiration can harm your skin.
Exercising most days and eating a healthy, well-balanced diet can help you maintain and improve circulation and boost your immune system. Avoid ingesting too much added sugar and empty carbs, both of which can speed up the aging process.
Med Spa Treatments for Anti-Aging
While all of the above are recommended no matter what, the truth is you may need to visit my med spa to truly boost your appearance instead of solely focusing on a daily battle against the unavoidable aging process. I offer a variety of injectables at my relaxing med spa that you can receive to soften wrinkles, improve facial volume, lift your face, and more.
One of the most popular injectables at my Little Rock spa is BOTOX® Cosmetic, a popular and safe treatment that reduces the muscle contraction that causes wrinkles, providing a more youthful appearance for months at a time.
I also provide a vast array of fillers like Restylane®, Perlane®, Sculptra®, and RADIESSE®. As an example of what these powerful products can do, let’s look at Perlane. This rejuvenating injectable can be administered to treat deep wrinkles and folds while providing temporary results that may match what a full-fledged surgical brow lift could achieve.
Cosmetic Surgery to Address Facial Wrinkles
While the results consistently created at my Little Rock med spa are known to be highly effective, to get the best outcome possible, cosmetic surgery is the answer. I provide facelifts, eyelid surgery, brow lifts, neck lifts, cheek surgery, and more.
These surgeries provide stunning results that can last for well over a decade, like a facelift, or even permanently like rhinoplasty. I pride myself on achieving natural-looking surgical results that totally avoid the dreaded, overworked “Hollywood” plastic surgery appearance.
