Everyone will one day notice changes in the face and in the skin. Wrinkles are the first signs and it is inevitable as people age. A lot of customers are familiar with creams, food supplements and diets but if these don't work, here are some other options people can enjoy to fight aging.

The first is called an oxygen facial, which is available at most spas. This treatment cleanses the face, helps in cell rejuvenation and brings out exfoliates from the skin so that bacteria hidden in the pores can come out.

Another popular favorite is the botox injection. As the term suggests, an experienced doctor will be using a small needle to stop the muscles that are responsible for forming lines on the face. This isn’t a one shot deal so those who do it once have to go back to the clinic every few months.

Even if botox injections are painless, some people are wary of having a small needle stuck into the face. It is a good thing that facial fillers are now available which can be injected directly into the crease or the pore. The main ingredient here is hyaluronic acid and there two types that patients can choose from namely Restylane and Radiesse. Those who go forward with this will have to undergo treatment for 6 months or less depending on the skin's condition.

Next is called the epifacial. This treatment is expensive because lasers are used to clean the skin. Studies have shown this can make a person look ten years younger, which can be accomplished within a matter of minutes.

The newest option is called the thermage non-surgical face-lift. This is a machine that uses radio waves to follow up the work that was done after surgery. The only drawback is that the treatment isn’t painless even if nurses will be applying an antiseptic.

Nobody wants to live forever but those who want to look good in front of family and friends will have to do whatever it takes. The options mentioned namely oxygen facial, botox injection, facial fillers, epifacial and thermage non-surgical face-lift are available for those who can afford it.

It is best to know the pros and cons by talking to a dermatologist before trying any to be able to get the best money can buy as first impressions last in this modern age.(/W/I)
