As you get older, you’ll notice changes in your skin—and not all of them will be welcome! From genetics and sun exposure to lifestyle choices and dietary habits, many factors affect the quality of your complexion. Luckily, modern medicine and technology have uncovered facial rejuvenation techniques to combat undesired alterations. Here, the skin care experts at Aesthetic Institute of Atlantis in Palm Beach County, Florida, explain three popular methods that can turn back the clock.

3 Facial Rejuvenation Techniques Explained

1. Laser Fractional Advance Rejuvenation

Chronoaging refers to skin damage that’s accumulated over time, like smile lines and acne scars from adolescence. Photoaging generally describes environmental conditions that can dull your appearance, including repeat exposure to UV rays and air pollutants. Using an Omnimax™ fractional laser, our medical professionals can address both chronoaging and photoaging to minimize your pores, smooth fine lines, erase scars, diminish redness and dark spots, and even boost your collagen production. 

2. IPL Photofacial

Intense Pulse Light or IPL photofacials are used to address pigmentation irregularities, like age and sun spots. They are also excellent at reducing the appearance of redness and dilated or broken blood vessels, all of which can make a face appear older. An IPL device emits specific ranges of light waves that target hemoglobin—the red blood cells—or melanin—the brown pigment in freckles and age spots.

3. Facial Skin Tightening

As you get older, your skin loses collagen and elastin. This can result in “sagging”—another telltale sign of aging. Laser skin tightening addresses such looseness. It works by heating the existing collagen under the skin’s surface, causing the skin to tighten.
