The Non Surgical Face Lift

Isn't the face the most important part of your body? People are identified and recognized by their faces. Our face makes a big part of our individuality. When we get older, often the first signs of aging can be seen in the face. The face is important to us and therefore a face lift surgery is a frightening idea for most of us. What if something goes wrong?

A face lift can go perfectly well and you look ten years younger and better than ever before. But every surgery has risks. There can be complications, infections, scars or a other bad luck. Finally, it is possible that you are not happy with your new look even if the face lift went well. Many would rather try a non-surgical face lift therefore.

What are the options for a nonsurgical face lift? One is called thermage. It has the ability to help your skin to use the collagen more efficiently. Energy of radio frequency is used to heat the collagen. The skin starts looking younger because the skin gets tighter. A thermage should be used as soon as you see the first signs of aging. The older your skin becomes, the less effective this treatment will become.

The laser facelift is the next option you have. It is very similar to the thermage. The laser heats the collagen and helps the outer skin layers to improve. A tighter skin which gives you a fresh and younger feeling is the result. You can see immediate results which can be improved when you repeat the procedure two or more times after a couple of months.

What else could you do to avoid a surgery? There is also the so called bio-ultimate or microcurrent face lift. Your skin looks better because it gets stimulated by gentle electric currents. Skin activity improves, even the skin muscles are stimulated. Another option you have is trying one of the many face lift creams that contain amino acids. They also help to tighten the skin.

The thread face lift is your last option. It comes near to a surgery though but it has very good results. The cosmetic surgeon needs to make very small incisions. During the procedure which usually lasts one or two hours, he uses very thin threads to tighten the skin. You have immediate results which cost you just about the half of a traditional face lift.

As you can see by now, you have several options for getting a younger face without the concern of a surgery. However, face lift surgery has become a very safe procedure today. Make sure you get the best cosmetic surgeon you can get. But before you do that, why no trying a non surgical face lift?
