Welcome to the upcoming home of Aging .netTurning Back the ClockOscar Wilde's fictional Dorian Gray may have been able to stay youthful-looking (while his portrait in the attic aged), but for the rest of us, our years are imprinted all too clearly on our face. It's important, of course, to accept and celebrate our age-but who wants to look old before their time? And that's exactly what often happens, usually because of spending too many hours in the sun, but also, in some cases, because of the genes we've inherited. Unwanted wrinkles, sagging skin, pigmentations ("age" or "liver" spots), enlarged pores, and scarring-all these imperfections and more can leave us looking tired, sullen, unhealthy, or much older than we feel. Skin Rejuvenation TechniquesThere are so many ways you can rejuvenate age- and sun-damaged skin these days-and often without invasive surgery. These non-surgical treatments include chemical peels, dermal fillers like Restylane, and mechanical therapies, such as microdermabrasion and vibradermabrasion. New laser and other types of light therapies as well as radiofrequency therapies are also being constantly developed and improved. These therapies can rejuvenate the deeper levels of the skin. Many of these options can be used in combination for even better results. And with all of them, you can be back at your normal daily activities either immediately or within a day or two.
