Wrinkles usually make people look old and cause a loss of self-confidence. There are different kinds of wrinkles which appear on the face and each kind must be treated in a different way.
We can treat fine wrinkles using peeling agents. Deep wrinkles can be improved by injecting collagen, or another material that has the same properties, directly into the dermis.
Crow's feet and other wrinkles that appear only when you make certain facial expressions can be corrected by botox injection or surgery.
In the quest to eradicate the signs of aging, cosmetic plastic surgery patients continue to demand better results with less recovery time. Recent advances in technology aim to meet those demands, giving plastic surgeons and patients many options for facial augmentation. The products mentioned below represent a partial listing of injectables receiving ongoing attention.
As the largest plastic surgery organization in the world and the foremost authority on cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, the ASPS welcomes the introduction of new and exciting therapies and products. The society, however, cautions that without meaningful scientific evaluation, physicians may be unwilling to use products until there is convincing evidence of their safety and efficacy.
Collagen (Bovine based)
Since the 1980s, injectable collagen has been used as a soft-tissue filler. Collagen is a naturally occurring protein that supports various parts of the body including skin, tendons and ligaments. Commonly used injectable collagen is made from purified cow skin to fill wrinkles, lines and scars on the face. The primary risk of injectable collagen is allergic reaction. Injectable collagen absorbs into the body. More than 220,000 collagen injection procedures were performed in 2005, according to the ASPS.
Human Tissue Derived Collagen
A group of human-derived collagen products are currently available in the United States. The tissue, harvested using sterile techniques from donors or grown in a laboratory, are processed to form an injectable human collagen matrix.
Fat
Fat injections have been used for years to add volume, fill wrinkles, lines and enhance the lips. Fat injections involve taking fat from one part of the patient's body (abdomen, thighs or buttocks) and reinjecting it beneath the facial skin. Unlike bovine collagen, allergic reaction is not a factor as the fat is harvested from the patient's own body. Results are variable, but can be permanent. More than 48,000 fat injection procedures were performed in 2005, according to the ASPS.
Botulinum toxins
First used to treat eye disorders, botulinum toxins have been used for neck spasms, cranial nerve disorders and eye spasms. For cosmetic purposes, the bacteria is used for the temporary improvement of moderate to severe wrinkles in the glabellar region. When injected into facial muscles, botulinum toxins block nerve impulses, temporarily paralyzing muscles and smoothing wrinkles. Currently Botox® is the only form of botulinum toxin approved by the FDA for cosmetic purposes in the glabellar region, but two others, Myobloc TM and Dysport® , are under FDA review for cosmetic use.
More than 3.8 million Botox® injections were performed in 2005, according to ASPS. Botox injections were the most popular minimally-invasive cosmetic procedure in 2005. Fifty-five percent of all Botox® procedures were performed on people between the ages of 35 –50.
