Age leaves an unpleasant imprint on appearance. Over the years, even the most concerned person about his appearance begins to develop unsightly skin folds and so-called crow's feet. Very often, representatives of the fair sex further aggravate the situation when they include low-quality cosmetics in their anti-aging skin care. In such cases, there are procedures whose purpose is to smooth out wrinkles of varying depths.

Correction of facial wrinkles with Dysport - what is it?
Dysport before and after
Correction of facial wrinkles collects a huge number of positive reviews. It is believed that this remedy is one of the best in the fight against wrinkles on any part of the face.
Dysport works similar to Botox. It even has the same side effects and contraindications. Although the drugs are considered analogues, they are used differently.
Dysport contains almost half the active ingredient. It also contains lactose, and therefore it is strictly prohibited for people with lactose intolerance.
The advantages of the product are as follows:
- Clients note that the muscles begin to go numb within 3-4 days after the procedure. This effect is possible due to the ability of the substance to penetrate deeply into muscle tissue. Even Botox gives the first effect only after 7 days.
- With each procedure performed, the effect lasts longer. If after the first injection you have to repeat the procedure after 5 months, then after the third injection the period will increase to 7-8 months.
- The price of the drug itself is low. But it is important to consider that for one unit of Botox there are 4 Dysport. Accordingly, the price of the procedures is almost the same.
results
The effect of biorevitalization, Botox injections and photorejuvenation can be seen after 2-3 sessions. After visiting a cosmetologist, the skin looks completely healthy, more toned and dense. This is possible thanks to the deep effects of hyaluronic acid, botulinum toxin and laser. The result achieved through such procedures lasts from 6 to 12 months. As for such a remedy as a mask for smoothing out wrinkles, it also bears fruit, but for this it must be done regularly. Cosmetologists offer many options on how to maintain youth and beauty while fighting wrinkles. A cosmetologist will help you decide which one is most suitable in each individual case. Only then will it be possible to count on good results and not be so afraid of old age. For those who for some reason cannot go to the clinic, do not forget about homemade masks.
Correction of facial wrinkles with hyaluronic acid - what is it?
Injection of hyaluronic acid
The use of hyaluronic acid injections is another way through which the correction of facial wrinkles is possible. It is usually used when Botox does not provide the desired effect or cannot be used. For example, when nasolabial folds appear, Botox will help, but if they are very deep, then it will not help.
There are three methods of facial correction using hyaluronic acid:
- Mesotherapy . Point injections are made with a low concentration substance. This is how wrinkle prevention is done. The skin remains moisturized longer and maintains tone.
- Biorevitalization . Fillers are injected into the area between the eyebrows, around the eyes and other places where wrinkles occur.
- Bioreparation . Injections are made using balanced cocktails with hyaluronic acid and other substances. This allows you to activate the skin regeneration process from the inside. Women really like this method because it significantly improves the appearance of their face.
Choosing products for home use
Not everyone can afford radical methods, and many women fear that the result will be completely unpredictable. It is easier for them to take care of their face at home, especially since wrinkle fillers and fillers are presented in a wide variety.
Collagen or hyaluronic filler allows you to fill wrinkles quickly and improve the appearance of the skin immediately after application.
However, you should immediately warn: do not expect an effect similar to injections. Unlike injections, fillers will not maintain the results for a whole year: they must be used regularly. At the same time, skincare cosmetics cannot be excluded.
But we’ll talk about this in a little more detail below.
Collagen gel: features
Collagen wrinkle filler works according to the following principle. The substance fills skin folds and smoothes them. A thin film is created on the cover, preventing moisture evaporation. In a number of such products, manufacturers use silicone to enhance effectiveness. Despite the fact that this synthetic substance smoothes well, its long-term use is harmful. When the skin is under the silicone film, it begins to sweat a lot and swell. An ideal environment for the development of microorganisms is formed under the film.
Collagen provides the skin with elasticity and creates a so-called framework to maintain its shape. Otherwise, the skin, which does not have enough of this protein, sags a little, and wrinkles become deeper.
High-quality creams with collagen and wrinkle fillers are usually based on molecules of plant or marine collagen.
In addition to this component, the composition may contain sparkling particles that scatter light and thereby give the skin a smoother appearance. As a rule, such a cream includes mica powder.
Wrinkle fillers also contain other ingredients that are valuable for the skin. So, it is worth highlighting vitamins A and E. For example, retinol is responsible for prolonging youth.
It is important to understand that wrinkle filler gel provides only a visual effect. After makeup removal, the skin will look the same as before. Fillers do not have a cumulative effect.
Fillers from Yves Rocher
Anti-Age Global is marketed as a wrinkle filler and eye contour cream containing plant extracts (except for 10% of the composition). However, let's not forget that the cream contains silicone. Although there are no parabens or mineral oils.
Due to plant extracts, collagen fibers become stronger and restoration at the cellular level is stimulated. Judging by the reviews, wrinkles become less noticeable, bags and dark circles on the lower eyelids also disappear.
At the same time, everything is individual - there is no universal cream that would help everyone.
Vichy lift active advanced
Let's now turn our attention to hyaluronic wrinkle filler. If you believe the manufacturer’s promises, then after a month of regular use of Vichy liftactive advanced, the number and depth of wrinkles will noticeably decrease. This is because it contains hyaluronic acid and retinol. Vitamin A is responsible for regeneration processes and helps restore collagen fibers.
Hyaluronic acid is an important substance for youthful skin. Its main task is to retain moisture. If the cream includes this component, then moisture from the surface of the skin is delivered to deeper layers. In order for hyaluronic acid to penetrate inside and start working, it is important to choose a product with low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (it can be low- and high-molecular).
Molecula
This filler is hyaluronic. In addition to this component, the composition contains extracts of grape seed, birch bark, and rose hips.
Natura Siberica: a product based on black caviar extract
The polycollagen wrinkle filler comes in a bottle with a tapered tip, which is convenient for topical application. The composition, in addition to black caviar extract, contains plant components such as honey herb, medicinal sage, etc., honey, fruit oils, oleic acid, glycerin, alcohol, etc.
Polycollagen filler has a creamy texture. There is no sticky feeling when applied and the pores do not get clogged. However, it is necessary to apply a little product so that it does not clump.
Correction of facial wrinkles with Botox - what is it?
Botox before and after
In modern cosmetology, Botox is used to correct facial wrinkles and is considered almost the best and only remedy for solving problems. If used correctly, the fight against age-related changes will really be effective, and with the additional procedure, even traces of creases are hidden.
As we have already said, not all wrinkles can be removed with Botox. As a rule, the product allows you to cope with dynamic wrinkles that appear due to frequent and strong muscle contractions. This is what causes the skin to wrinkle.
Botox either does not remove the same wrinkles that appear for other reasons or slightly smoothes them out. By the way, if the procedure is carried out correctly, the muscles do not completely lose their mobility. They partially contract and therefore facial expressions do not change.
It is important to understand that an excellent effect cannot be obtained in every case, because the result depends not only on the correctness of the procedure, but also on the quality of the drug and sensitivity. In addition, after the procedure some consequences may appear.
Store products
It is not at all necessary to prepare creams and masks at home from improvised means - it is quite possible to purchase ready-made products in stores. In pharmacies and stores you can buy masks specifically for the eyes - almost every cosmetic company produces them. The main thing here is to choose products designed for your skin type and suitable for your age. Also, under no circumstances use regular masks for the skin around the eyes - they can damage the delicate area.
Sometimes in stores you can find special serums that are also quite effective against wrinkles.
What are the consequences of correcting facial wrinkles?
Consequences of Botox
As we have already said, after the administration of Botox or Dysport, side effects may appear, in which case the correction of facial wrinkles looks simply terrible. For the most part, of course, the consequences are not so dire. They do not cause any inconvenience and go away on their own within a couple of days. But sometimes they can be hard.
Among the main consequences are:
- The appearance of bumps, swelling, itching . They do not appear immediately, but they do not cause much inconvenience. They also pass quickly.
- Facial expressions change, the face stops moving , the eyelid droops, and the symmetry of the face is disrupted. Usually the muscles remain in this state for the entire duration of the drug. In mild cases this can be corrected, but not always.
- The appearance of other wrinkles is due to the fact that they begin to work more actively , because other muscles are immobilized. This side effect is extremely rare and difficult to correct. This is due to the fact that in the end there are even more wrinkles than there were.
- The occurrence of influenza syndrome, when the temperature rises and breaks down the whole body. Usually everything goes away in a couple of days.
- The most dangerous consequence of all is allergies. It also happens rarely, but it is the only one that can cause death.
It happens that the consequences arise due to a cosmetologist’s mistake. For example, he administered the drug incorrectly or did not take into account the peculiarities of human anatomy. So, to avoid the consequences of the procedure, you should choose an experienced cosmetologist.
Moreover, if you have contraindications, then refuse the procedure. After it is completed, follow all recommendations for facial care.
Non-surgical Italian blepharoplasty DROT
The unique technology of non-surgical blepharoplasty will allow you to restore youthful skin in the eyelid area without surgery and without complications. The effect of the procedure will be no worse than that of expensive plastic surgery. The technology allows you to get rid of sagging skin over the upper eyelids, bags under the eyes and, of course, wrinkles.
A Clinic successfully uses the technology of non-surgical blepharoplasty DROT (DROT), which was developed by Italian scientists. It is based on a combination of RF radiation and fractional CO2 laser. For eyelid lifting, S-Pulse and D-Pulse pulses are used, which have not previously been used in laser dermatology. For eyelid surgery, the Stack mode is also used, with which you can vary the depth of penetration of the laser beam. The use of different types of laser pulses in combination with RF radiation allows doctors to work at different depths of the skin, depending on the task at hand. As a result, eyebrows are raised, sagging tissue on the upper and lower eyelids is removed, the skin is noticeably thickened, and wrinkles are smoothed out.
It is extremely important that with DROT blepharoplasty there are no scars on the upper and lower eyelids, changes in the natural shape of the eyes and bruises. Due to the high temperature during laser blepharoplasty, the possibility of microbes entering the skin is eliminated, which means that the risk of infectious diseases and various complications disappears. The rehabilitation period is short and does not imply major changes in the usual pace of life.
The technology can be used to correct existing age-related changes in the periorbital area, as well as for preventive purposes for all skin phototypes. After blepharoplasty, the look immediately becomes open and youthful. And this effect promises to last up to five years.
Correction of facial wrinkles: reviews

You can never tell in advance how Botox or another substance will affect your face, and that is why there are many different pictures on the Internet with the consequences of an unsuccessful procedure.

Reasons for appearance
The main reason for the formation of wrinkles is the physiological process of skin aging. With age, the production of building materials (elastin and collagen) slows down, due to which the skin maintains firmness and elasticity.
In addition, changes in skin texture are affected by:
- Unfavorable environmental factors: ultraviolet radiation, weather conditions (heat, humidity, frost, wind), airborne chemicals, electromagnetic radiation.
- A genetic factor is a hereditarily determined feature of the structure of skin cells - fibroblasts.
- Excessive emotionality and pronounced facial expressions often cause the formation of wrinkles long before natural aging.
- A metabolic disorder that leads to disruption of the synthesis of new cells.
- Unhealthy lifestyle (physical inactivity), unhealthy diet, smoking, alcohol, psychological stress.
- Skin health directly depends on the condition of internal organs: liver, kidneys, heart, endocrine system. Sometimes the first signs of pathology appear on the face: sagging, pale color, decreased turgor and sharply manifested wrinkles - these are no longer aesthetic, but medical problems.
- Using cosmetics of low quality or not suitable for this type of epidermis.
- Passion for diets. When sudden weight loss occurs, the skin loses subcutaneous fat, sags, and gathers in folds and wrinkles .
Contraindications and complications
Restrictions for the use of facial injections with different filler compositions:
- breastfeeding and pregnancy;
- elevated temperature;
- any colds and general malaise;
- inflammatory processes in the treated area;
- age limit up to 30 years;
- damage, injuries, abrasions and other physical defects;
- allergic reactions to the components of the drug.
- poor blood clotting.
How to remove wrinkles using the hardware method
Hardware cosmetology is very popular for the correction of facial wrinkles. The Internet contains many stories not only of the fairer sex, but also of men who have decided to undergo anti-aging procedures. After a preliminary consultation and assessment of the skin condition, the specialist offers one of several ways to solve the problem.
Microcurrents
Current pulses with minimal voltage stimulate all layers of the skin. The blood supply to cells increases, protein synthesis accelerates, the tone of facial muscles returns, and the walls of blood vessels are strengthened.
Laser therapy
Sanding allows you to remove the top layer of the epidermis along with wrinkles and scars. At the same time, skin restoration processes are accelerated, the relief is leveled, the growth of young cells increases, and the facial contour is tightened.
Radiofrequency lifting
During the session, the skin is exposed to heat and cold radio waves that penetrate deep into the dermis. Thanks to heating, tissue regeneration starts, the production of collagen fibers increases, and after the procedure the supporting frame gradually increases.
Iontophoresis
Galvanic current affects the shallow layers of the skin, eliminating peeling and fine wrinkles. The use of hyaluronic acid during the procedure promotes hydration and regeneration of damaged cells.
Photorejuvenation
The effect is achieved by exposure to light flashes. The pulses penetrate to a depth of 3 mm, where they activate the production of collagen and elastin, thereby increasing elasticity.
