Effective Wrinkle Treatment

Facial wrinkles can be addressed in several ways. Temporary but effective correction can be achieved with Retinoids, microdermabrasion, chemical peels Botox Cosmetic and dermal fillers. These treatments are available at Refresh Medspa in Stockton, California.

Wrinkles are unfortunately an unavoidable part of aging. The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles can however be delayed with a good skincare regimen. Several options are available in Stockton, California.

Retinoids: Tretinoin is a retinoid for topical application that is available as part of the Obagi Nu Derm system. It comes in several strengths suitable for various skin types. It is very effective in reducing wrinkles and fine lines. It needs to be used with effective sun protection since it can cause redness, dryness and sun sensitivity. Used together with an exfoliant it is one of the most effective non surgical wrinkle treatments available.

Microdermabrasion: This is a skin "polishing" treatment that essentially removes a fine layer of epidermis using aluminum oxide crystals with a simultaneous vacuuming away of the debris. Mild redness may follow this treatment, but it is usually temporary.

Chemical Peels: Glycolic and other mild acids can be used for peeling of a superficial layer of epidermis leaving the underlying skin smooth and clear. The staff at Refresh Medspa will customize a special package for your specific skin needs.

Botox Cosmetic: This is a muscle relaxer which is injected into specific muscles that cause frowns. The treated muscles cannot contract resulting in smoothing away of frown lines. It also allows the collagen and elastin in the underlying skin to regenerate, essentially repairing the breakdown that occurs as a result of frowning. See wrinkle treatment in Stockton and Lodi.

Dermal Fillers: Juvederm and other similar hyaluronic acid fillers are very effective in restoring lost volume thereby eliminating wrinkles and fine lines. The new products are infused with a local anesthetic which makes the injections less painful. Refresh Medspa in Stockton California carries these products so your experience is more comfortable.

Unfortunately nothing stops the aging process so repeated treatments are necessary. Refresh Medspa has several membership plans and combination packages to make these treatments more affordable. Look under our "packages" tab at www.refreshmedspa.com for more information.
