Innovations in Anti-Aging Skin Care

The world of anti-aging skin care has more to offer us than ever before. Our society is increasingly preoccupied with youth and beauty, and skin care companies are scrambling to keep up. There are all kinds of products and treatments designed to keep you looking young and gorgeous, all you need to do is take your pick. Your options range from products you can apply at home to treatments that must be administered by a dermatologist.

Botox is one such treatment that you'll need to get from your dermatologist. As you may already be aware, Botox is an injection that works by freezing the facial muscles which cause the appearance of wrinkles. You can expect results to last up to six months before more injections must be administered to maintain results. An injection of Botox costs around $300 to $500. The price isn't the only downside to this treatment, however. While some women love the results of Botox, others hate the facial paralysis and the loss of expression experienced.

Restylane is another professional treatment that many use as an alternative to Botox. Restylane is a clear gel that is injected into wrinkles to plump the area. It can also be used to plump the lips. Like Botox, Restylane injections last for up to six months before another treatment is required. Restylane is comparable in price to Botox as it costs about the same price, between $300 and $500 per treatment. Many women find Restylane preferable as there are fewer side effects.

For those who may not have the money or time to go to the dermatologist, there are plenty of home treatments you can do to look younger. Microdermabrasion kits are popular these days and can be found most everywhere, from recognizable names like L'Oreal and Neutrogena. Microdermabrasion works by sloughing off dead skin cells and renewing fresh new skin. When combined with a good skin care routine, weekly microdermabrasion can encourage a younger appearance.

Anti-aging products have even gone from being topically applied to orally administered. There are plenty of vitamins and supplements on shelves these days designed to encourage younger skin. In addition, the Borba company makes both water and gummy bears that claim to improve the beauty of the skin. Borba products can be purchased from the beauty superstore Sephora. While you're there, you may want to check out Creme de la Mer, which is hailed as the ultimate wrinkle cream and used by the rich and famous. It's pricey -- costing over $100 for a small jar, but it is also a top seller because women swear by it. When it comes to looking younger, many are willing to suffer through pain and shell out big bucks. Looking better often leads to feeling better, which makes it all worthwhile!
