How much do we know about the treatments we use
(wrinkle remedies)
for removing
wrinkles, removing age spots or about the
creams we use to cover freckles. Lotions
and creams are ten a penny on shop
shelves, but how safe are they and what`s
more do they work as they suggest on the
packaging.
One
of the simplest wrinkle remedies (method) used
by many for removing wrinkles is the actual
skin treatment i.e. topical application
(wrinkle cream). Creams can be purchased from
shops – drugstores, pharmacies and most health
food stores. This particular cream is
beneficial to all skin types; the cream
replenishes - moisturizes and nourishes the
skin. But, here comes the big but - the creams
ability to reduce and smooth out wrinkles, or
tighten the collagen under the skin's surface
is, sadly to say, restricted. Any signs you may
have noticed from use will be short lived if
the topical agent is discontinued. So as you
can see this can be an expensive way of dealing
with your problem when the results are only
temporary.
Topical
application of prescription drugs, most
notably synthetic derivatives of Vitamin
A (retinoids), can give better results in
bettering sun-damaged and aging skin. In
laboratories the latest clinical studies
showed that topical retinoid formulations
found them to be safe and effective in
ridding fine wrinkles. But once again you
have to be aware that most retinoids are
skin irritants and often produce skin
reactions.

Some
people choose other wrinkle remedies to help
gain back a natural healthy glow to their skin
while in the process of removing wrinkles. One
of the selections available is Dermabrasion and
Microdermabrasion: Dermabrasion which is a
traditional skin clearing routine that was
brought to our attention in the 1980s.
Sometimes referred to by folks as surgical skin
planing, What happens with this choice in a
persons quest for smoother silky looking skin
minus the wrinkles is - it commonly involves
removal or sanding of the skin with a rotary
abrasive instrument. The abrasive or planing
action evens out the skin, and a new layer of
fresh skin replaces the abraded
skin.
This procedure is
usually reserved to patients with severe acne
and deep furrows (wrinkles) however, is it
worth the wait because - the healing and
recovery are lengthy, where the skin was
treated then expect it to remain red and
flushed for an extended period of time. Of
course every treatment is up to the own
personal choosing of each individual, whether
it be topical creams or Dermabrasion and
Microdermabrasion
Take
Microdermabrasion, which in contrast to
Dermabrasion, is a more recently introduced
treatment. It is more popular among those with
mild skin damage seeking to preserve and
maintain a younger looking complexion. Wrinkle
remedy instructions should always be followed
accordingly to what is written on the
packaging. Microdermabrasion involves brushing
the face with sterile micro-particles to abrade
or rub off the very top skin layer, then
vacuuming the particles and derma braded skin
away. Scientists state the procedure works best
to polish and soften fine lines and dull skin
texture.
Remember there are
no overnight cures or miracle potions to remove
wrinkles. In most cases of the
Microdermabrasion method, a minimum of four to
five initial treatments, seven to ten days
apart, are necessary to achieve positive
results. Talk to your doctor about prescription
drugs and creams before use. A dermatologist
will have most of the answers to your questions
on skin problems and wrinkle
remedies.
