Taking care of your skin is one of the essential ways to combat the signs of aging. Although your skin will inevitably develop some fine lines and wrinkles as the collagen and elastin in it deteriorate over time, a healthy skin care regimen will help deter these negative side effects of growing older and keep your skin looking beautiful and youthful as long as possible.
Proper skin care requires four basic elements:
-
Antioxidants
-
Protect skin from free radical cell damage by inhibiting oxidation reactions
-
Growth Factors
-
Stimulate cellular growth and healing
-
Retinol
-
A form of vitamin A that regulates epithelial cell growth, cell proliferation, and cellular differentiation
-
Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen
-
Protects the skin from ultraviolet radiation damage
Skin Care Products
At Wise Center for Plastic Surgery, we offer SkinMedica®, SkinCeuticals, and NEOCUTIS skin care products that contain these elements to provide our patients with beautifully radiant skin. These products help maintain youthful skin as you age, improve skin quality for those who already have signs of aging, and prolong the results of injectable treatments, laser skin resurfacing, facial peels, and other anti-aging procedures. Skin health is regenerated as these products work below the surface of the skin at the cellular level, and skin health is maintained as the cells are protected from harmful environmental elements. It is important to use these products every day, especially a broad-spectrum sunscreen, in order to protect and heal your skin from daily damage.
Our skin care products prevent and improve the following signs of aging:
-
Fine lines
-
Deep wrinkles
-
Uneven pigmentation
-
Uneven skin tone
-
Rough skin texture
-
Poor elasticity
The SkinMedica®, SkinCeutical, and NEOCUTIS products are not available for purchase over-the-counter (OTC) because they contain over 10 percent of active ingredients for dramatic improvement in skin quality (OTC products contain less than 2 percent). These high-quality products are only available through a physician’s office, where a skilled physician or aesthetician can evaluate your needs and recommend the best products for your individual condition.
